Greetings fellow X-heads!!!
This is my first attempt at guitar tab, so please bear with me if it
isn't
100% perfect. The song is played in standard E tuning. If you find this
tab
helpful, please drop me an email and let me know. It's nice to know the
work
involved in writing this is appreciated. Writing tab is harder than it
looks!
Key:
b = bend
x = mute string
~ = bend back and forth quickly with finger like you would end a flashy
solo.
Ok... L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-LETS GO!!!

skip if solo
guitar
Riff #4:
--------
There are 2 guitars present on this part - the bass does the single
notes,
and the guitar just does the power chords and harmonics. I tabbed this
so
you can play both with one guitar (that's how I do it anyway).
Be sure to let the power chords and harmonics ring as long as you can
before switching back to the single note riff.

Solo:
-----
It's really hard to hear the note that is inbetween the first and last
note
played in this solo piece. I'm pretty I got the right one, but don't
hold it
against me if I wrote down the wrong one. This is how I play it live and
nobody's complained... yet!

Sound tip:
----------
To get your guitar to sound like the MXC theme recording, I recommend a
lot
of distortion with either an Overdrive or heavy metal pedal. I have a
Fender
Cyclone II as well as an American Deluxe Stratocaster, and both sound
good
using a tube amp with either setup:
1. Amp distortion w/Boss Super Overdrive
2. Clean amp with DOD's Death Metal pedal.
Right you are Ken!
and remember.........DON'T GET ELIMINATED!!!!!!!!!
