Turnpike Troubadours - Down on Washington

Post by Austin Harper »

I noticed someone posted a tab from this great record, so I thought I'd try and tab out a solo I've been trying to learn from it. This has turned into one of those records I can't stop listening to, and it has some awesome steel playing on it!

I've never made a tab before so this may be a little painful. I wasn't exactly sure how to tab out the RKL, so I just wrote RKL :). On my guitar, it raises the F#'s a half step. I'd love any corrections or suggestions, I'm still fairly new at trying to pick out steel parts by ear.

EDIT: just noticed the tune was on YouTube: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UTqmBdoKvvo

Close get rid of most of those single note runs and make them all double stops.

Pretty sure Roger Ray played on this one. Maybe he will chime in.
