THE SABER RIDER THEME SONG That guitar solo -------------------------- Due to 'popular demand', I have set out on tabbing the legendary guitar solo part in the Saber Rider Theme Song. The solo consists of two lead voices (which are a third apart) and is thus played on two overdriven electric guitars simultaneously, resulting in the trademark Dale Schacker guitar sound encountered throughout the series' soundtrack. To offer a completely accurate rendering of the part, you'd thus require four hands and two guitars: Guitar 1 (high part): |------------6-8---8---8-6-4-8---6-4-6---4-3-4-6---6---6-4-3-1---3-4---4-6---8-9-11-9-8------8---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |------6-8-9----------------------------------------------------------------------------11-9-----11-9-11---9-8-6-4-6-8-6-8-9-8-9-11-9-11-11---------13-11----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |5-6-8----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------13------------------10---8-10-----10---8-10-----10-8-----8---5-8---------10---8-10-----10---8-10---------- |------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------13-11-10----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------13-11----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Guitar 2 (low part): |----------1-3-4---4---4-3-1-4---3-1-3---1---1-3---3---3-1---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |------2-4---------------------------------4---------------4-2---2-4-6---6-8---9-11-13-11-9-8-6-9---8-6-8---6-4-2-1-2-4-2-4-6-4-6-8-6-8-8---------9-8--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |1-3-5------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------10------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------10-8-----------10---8-10-----10---8-10-----10-8-----8---5-8---------10---8-10-----10---8-10---------- |-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------11-10-8----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Evidently, this tab is basic in that it just shows the notes and any sliding, tremolo etc. should be applied as deemed fit. Enjoy, hope it works for you :-)! Visit my homepage at http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/mnmol and download this track in MIDI format, and have a look at a lot more MIDIs and other stuff.
