46 secs in. its the second riff in the song.

I found most of it but I'm missing something...This is a pretty stock riff but I can't find it.

Thanks
Matt

Matthew,
It's just fret 10, mostly strings 3 (with the B pedal pressed) and 5 (open and raised).

You will progress as a player if you can work this lick out without relying on tab

Thanks Nic, email sent.

Thanks Richard, I agree relying on tab alone is not the best way to progress as a player/musician. Ear training and Transcription are some of the most important tools in development.

Hi, Matthew or Nic, I realize it's been a while since this post, but I'd like a copy of this tab if you still have it. My ears get it, but my knees don't :D

Thanks a million, Nic, I'm so greatful for the generousity of the Forum members like you. It is, by far, the greatest exercise in sharing knowledge and mentoring I've ever encountered. And I know that newbies like myself are lucky and honored to be able to tap into the wealth of experience and good will, shared by so many great (..and very busy...) musicians. I will not get tired of expressing my appreciation for that. I didn't, however, get an e-mail you sent. There must have been some glitch in the interwebs. Would you please resend it? Thanks again.
