It's simple, but not without some interesting melodic variations. The third ending to Rhy. Fig 4 is probably not too accurate. The bass just drops out of hearing during the last bar there. No matter how hard I try to EQ it or pan it I can't really hear what's going on. This is an approximation at best. Key: / = slide up \ = slide down b = bend (whole step) b^ = bend (1/2 step) b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps) pb = pre-bend r = release-bend t = tap with righthand finger h = hammer-on p = pull-off ~ = Vibrato * = Natural Harmonic #(#) = Trill ** = Artificial Harmonic x = Dead notes (no pitch) P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes) (\) = Dive w\bar (/) = Release w\bar Tp = Tap w\plectrum
