It took me forever to figure this out. Well,
not really but it sure felt like it. Email me
any comments. Also if you're a Kyuss fan, I
haven't met many

************************************************
Note
*On the repeats, Josh doesn't always play exactly the same thing,
just listen for it, it's not too tough. It's mainly on the ending riff.
*He will sometimes use wah as a filter effect. If you ever hear a live
version of any of their songs, you'll hear it more clearly.
*The sound at the beginning is flanged bass feedback
