I know the cd just came out.....i've been listening to it nonstop, it's amazing....but if anyone can figure out the guitar part for fed to death i will be forever in your debt.....thanks!
Re: Fed To Death
I've been watching vids to at least start figuring this out. I notice Jeff retunes (I THINK) his high E & B string before the 2nd part of the song where it's played clean. Just something to note.

Re: Fed To Death
yeah i can't find a good video that shows the guitar consistently.....and i'm not the best at figuring it out anyway....i love the guitar part....especially on the acoustic fed to death after he starts saying "this is forever"....thanks for the input!
Re: Fed To Death
Yeah I'm not good at figuring out stuff by ear either. Working on I Could Be President by ear is a lot more draining than watching him play Eloise and figuring it out was. Since I don't want to post uselessly without adding anything else, I think when he retunes the 1 or 2 strings, he's probably just using a tuning that's similar to some of the earlier Dashboard Confessional stuff. Something along the lines of tuning E & B to D and then muting the G-string since I'm fairly certain he's playing the notes during that part on the D-string exclusively. Just a note, that Dashboard tuning was DADDdd, half step down. Hope this helps someone since I'm not good at figuring this stuff out.

Fed To Death - Say Anything
NOTE: Max plays this a half step down, however I am posting a way to play
it in standard tuning. If you would like, I could post the one with
the half step down as well.

He calmly watched him gorge himself until his final breath
And there he stood surprised and shocked
Above his tiny frame
He said I bear no blame for this, I only share his name
There was a man from Nazareth the fools at war pervert
They forged an image of his flesh to brand on mugs and t-shirts
They say one day he'll spring to life
To smile and lear your name
So nail yourself upon the cross, and hang your head in shame
Forever
This is forever

Re: Fed To Death
There are so many different ways you can play this,
but it's sounds the most like the cd. And I tabbed this
in less than an hour so I was too lazy to tab the little
licks in the song.
It's in E Flat tuning.

Re: Fed To Death
wow, I'm dumb. of course it's this slide. I thought it was it sounded lower,
what was i thinking. But i still think they hit some of this open strings on the cd
but it doesn't matter, we got the important parts of the riff. And this is the lead.
