Judith Ver 5 by A Perfect Circle
A Perfect Circle - Judith ver 5 guitar tab
ATTENTION, This is arranged for one guitar, because my band
doesn't have a second guitarist. Thus, I use octaves when
possible to thicken the sound. It sounds good when
we play it.
Tuning- drop B (B F# B E G# C#)
APC perform this song in drop B, but
who the hell plays in that? So my band just plays it
in drop C (C G C F A D).
For this song, you need reverb, slight delay,
an octaver, a clean channel, a distortion channel
and a slide. And the slide is not absolutely necessary.

* On the album, he plays Chorus - Part 2 under Maynard's scream,
but twice I have seen them play it differently live, and I like it
better. Instead, re-play Bridge - Part 3 and it plays better with
the vocals. *
