I Am Hell Sonata In C Chords & Tabs
I Am Hell Sonata In C Tab
Band: Machine Head
Song: I Am Hell(Sonata In C#)
Album: Unto The Locust (2011)
Tuning: C# Standard (C#, F#, B, E, G#, C#)
Machine Head don't play in C# standard precisely... They are tuned to
C# Standard but then tuned up 40 cents sharper
On a Korg tuner it would look something like this
Tuner:
50 x 50#
|--|--|--|--|-[-C#-]-|--|--|--|--|
The 'x' is where you want to be tuned to
I hope that helps anyway... xD
Also comment, correct, and please, please rate!!!
On further note... Look forward to the other songs from Unto The Locust!
I plan to put them here as soon as I've figured them out
