SLEEPWALK - BRIAN SETZER ORCHESTRA
E|E|----------------------------------------------------------------------------||
Tabbed by: Chris Parker (Chris_Parker)
Hey, so this is my sixth tab (written). I've been in love with this song
ever since I heard it, so I'm happy I figured it out. It's a cover of
Santo & Johnny's Sleepwalk instrumental, if you didn't already know.
An essential element to playing this song is that you need to play it
very clean on the bridge pick-up. Also, if you have a delay pedal, set
the delay time to have the delays coincide with the timing of the played
notes in the intro arpeggios with two delays to give it it's essential
sleepy triplet feel.
My amp settings (through an Ibanez Artcore AF75):
Volume: 5
Master Volume: About 1, but set it to taste as long as it isn't overdriven
Gain: 0
Treble: 8
Middle: 4
Bass: 5.5
Reverb: 3-4
I have switches on my amp for "Hi Boost" and "Mid Boost", and I put the
Hi Boost on and the Mid Boost off.
So here's the song!

That marked-off section is completely optional. However, the way I play it,
I just hold the mini-chord for the time it would take to strum those last
optional notes (two beats, basically).
(I tend to only hit the higher notes of the chords,
so that's what I tabbed. Also, I mute the
lower notes of the chords for a dreamy feel.)
