MILK IT
Standard tuning dropped down ˝step
The song starts with two guitars playing improvised licks on the high strings
and quite high on the neck. No need for tabbing...but remember that even that
improvised lick has a certain rhythm. Listen to it carefully. The same applies
for the "Guitar solo".
