    Use a glass, metal, or brass slide on the pinky finger
    damp the first finger across all the strings to mute.
    Position the slide directly over the fret number and
    just barely press the slide down (like when playing
    harmonics)

  5. sleepwalk tab
    marcoos74

    Unfortunateley, I dont have the tab. But I did start to work it out yesturday.
    The main rythem guitar section goes:

    C#///A#m///F#///G#///

    As for the lapsteel parts, I have been using a hawian tuning EBEG#C#E (from low to high E), with the parts mainly aroun the 9th fret, 2nd and 4th frets.

    If anyone does find the full tab, please post it whereabouts.

    Thanks

    I first heard this enchanting song while watching the movie "La Bamba" (If I remember correctly, it’s played during the opening scene where the kids are in a playground or something).It’s nice to see someone pay tribute to it. Do you know where I can get the guitar tabs for Sleepwalk?
