► Video informations : Be sure to put your guitar one step down (D standard tuning) or use Digitech THE DROP as i did on this track ! I love this pedal. I think you have the right transcription for every parts :
Kirk Guitar for chorus section.
Bridge before Guitar Solo, now, i'm sure James and Kirk play exactly like this ( i watch many vid's to find the correct way !!)
Every little riff are just killer, don't miss anything guys ! Guitar Solo is just a piece of art.

If anyone here is using a Pod Go, use the digitech pitch wham, pedal pos: 100%, heel is 0, toe is -2, mix 100, level 0.0. I have it after my cab and it's spot on. sounds so good. Big UPS to Julian for the suggestion. I love your channel, dude!

[@JulienMENARD]

You're Welcome !

[@kcmet79]

Love your guitar & sound. Ever play the second & third D5s of the main riff with L.H.-induced "staccato" like Hetfield plays? Makes for a more interesting sound I think than palm muting, tho it comes down to personal taste.

[@mturner2003]

Low key flex with all the guitars my dude, haha

[@JulienMENARD]

My guitars are in standard tuning. But i use the pedal by Digitech : The Drop. It's really amazing as you can hear it.

[@godenysh3140]

что бы усилить тут эффект тяжести они писали в 4 гитары... и там были специальные баритон гитары с удлинённой мензурой

Hey man great cover, can you let us know what your amp settings are so we can achieve this awesome tone.

[@sandordzsupin832]

What kind of guitar do you used in the intro? Anyway keep it up bro🤟

[@marcopanetta3510]

Awesome tone! How did you get that?

[@JulienMENARD]

Thank you and simply with neutral clean amp with a regular Revv G3 pedal. It works best with 2x12 or 4x12 cab.

[@locus9031]

4:10

[@domrramos]

How is he making the guitar noise that starts at 1:19 aka "Chorus James"??? That's my favorite noise in the whole song but it doesn't look like his fingers are doing anything differently. Is it another guitar doing that?

[@Cthulhu_Awaken]

Julien I'm learning this song and I have a question for you: the Bb (actually an Ab because of the tuning) chord in the chorus at 1:25 is supposed to be played muted or just rung out? I've noticed you noted that one as palm muted in the tab, but I'm hearing you just ringing it out, which is what I hear in the song as well. Who's right then? Your right hand or the tab? 😄

[@JulienMENARD]

Hey friend, here is a nice observation ! Let ring the Bb5 of course.

[@Cthulhu_Awaken]

@@JulienMENARD Cool! Thanks. By the way, should I learn the solo(s) too? I have never learnt how to solo before, I only focused on rhythm parts because I need to get my right hand to be on time and keep a constant pace. Maybe if I forget the solo of this one and next song I do I pick one with a little easier lead?

[@JulienMENARD]

You learn the solo if you want to do it. By the way, this one is maybe not the easiest one to start. But if you take one bar by one bar, slowly, with good reading of transcription, weeks after weeks you will put together and make something good.And i think my videos can be helpful for U for many years ! But SLOWLY first ... have a good pitch, feeling and rhythm 💀👊🏻💀 Good luck friend.

[@js32t88]

Can you do The Unforgiven 2 Please??

[@JulienMENARD]

Maybe i have something around that in weeks to come.

[@jonathanhill5459]

This is the only version that I can find online where the rhythm section during the chorus is as you’ve written it. When you watch James play live it doesn’t seem like he’s doing this. Am I hearing it wrong? Where are you getting this version from?

[@tigersports8988]

How the hell do you get that tone?

[@jhonclintureta819]

Does your guitar tuned in standard before you use the digitech the drop?

[@JulienMENARD]

Of course the guitar still in standard tuning. This is the magic of this pedal. I use it on Sad But True for one step lower (for D standard). You can hear the pedal in half step lower mode (for Eb standard tuning) on Fuel, The Memory Remains, No Leaf Clover, The God That Failed, The Unforgiven 2. All available on my channel of course.

[@jhonclintureta819]

@@JulienMENARD Okay thanks!! Since i don't have that pedal yet, i will try it in my zoom g3xn using pitch shifter....

[@kinga428]

what tuning is it ?

[@olivier42100]

I don't get it, is it just the low E string tuned one step down ? i thought "the DROP" could only drop all the strings altogether ...

[@JulienMENARD]

All strings one step lower friend.

[@siecoa3403]

What is the tuning?

[@lava_za]

That's interesting, no alternate picking

a very tool sounding riff

I ain't an Electric Guitar 🎸 at the moment .....sad but true 😔

[@alojzdobias6719]

Awesome, but Kirk’s section in chorus section sounds different in original album track.

[@JulienMENARD]

Cause they add some 2 guitars part, with bend and lot of reverb. But if you watch live version, Kirk play this part in the way i show you guys. Of course this part is also on the record.

[@alojzdobias6719]

@@JulienMENARD Yes, in live version this part is played identically like in your version, but i am very curious how to play the version with 2 guitars part with bend and lot of reverb. I couldn't find it anywhere.

@@JulienMENARD I found tabs: songsterr - Sad but true (first in the list) - distortion guitar - extra 2.

This is how James named this part ^-^!

[@sugarwalls2022]

Why does EVERYONE have the bridge section written wrong/ incomplete but play it right?

[@JulienMENARD]

Hey friend, the way i played and wrote the bridge is exactly how James and Kirk play it live. I carefully study the question, see all the videos available to watch carefully what they do, you can trust my work. Also what we call the " official songbook " is totally wrong in this part.

[@sugarwalls2022]

@@JulienMENARD You played it right as I mentioned. Its just a shame the tab is wrong.

[@NELJHAN123]

Good song but the tuning is we have problem 😭

I use for all the « non standard « tuning songs the pedal by Digitech - The Drop. As i do on this video, it’s absolutely killer.

You didn't cover the guitar bends overdub during the chorus.

[@JulienMENARD]

I know, i play for you guys as they play the song for two guitars (so they cut some guitars, this " bend overdub guitar" is actually cut) - So you can be James or Kirk with my video.

[@pikachu-dn9nx]

@@JulienMENARD and you play amazing. THE best covers/lessons/tabs by FAR. I'd love to learn those bends as well. Please 🥺

[@blasphemian3673]

It’s not a hard song but for me it’s the confusing transitions

[@MrGul]

Please don't tell me that you're using that faulty notation in the song book you're selling...! Your playing is solid and you've obviously taken great effort in making sure the tablature looks good, but the notation needs a lot of work. You've overlooked very basic things such as correct accidentals and enharmonic equivalents (for example, you've written A# throughout, but functionally in this song they should all be Bb because it's a flat 5th, not an augmented 4th - and yes, in notation that DOES matter, even though it doesn't in tablature), rhythm groupings (for example, you have a 16th note tied to an 8th note which should have been a dotted 8th note, and your 16th note triplet is separated from the following 16ths but should have been grouped together with a beam). A book full of these kinds of mistakes would really be a shame, despite the efforts behind it.

[@JulienMENARD]

Hello, Mr Gul, You got good eyes, great. But I hope you noticed i've written Bb5 everywhere it needed to be and not A#5 ... ? So why all this Literature ?! The A# just comes from standard set up in software... but be confortable, in the book you will see Bb note (i did it before you tell me of course ... cause i am disturb by these kind of geek thing that everyone don't care about) For the rhythm you speak about, it's just your point of view, the dotted eight is sometimes hard to understand for the people who didn't study these kind of things, so see the 16th note you don't play helps sometimes, it's subjective... And be sure lot of people like the book and the accuracy of transcriptions (and notation) as Kirk and James really play. Hope you will have fun with my channel's videos.

[@Thomas-ef6nv]

what tuning is that?
