Video Transcript

"JOE WILES: We're at number 36 in our top 80 most downloaded guitar tabs on the internet and it's System of a Down, "Hypnotize", let's take a look. To start off my whole guitar is tuned flat. So it's not E, A, D, G, B, E it's E flat, A flat, D flat, G flat, B flat, E flat okay. It sounds like this. You could tune to me if you like. Okay? All right, let's begin this song now. Every note we hit is going to be followed by the open G string okay? Keep that in mind as we go through the fret numbers and every other fretting is going to be done on the B-string, okay. So we're going to start on the 1st fret of the B string. Then the 3rd fret--4th fret--okay. So that goes 1-3-4-3-1 and then open. And we repeat that twice through before we go to the next part okay. It sounds like this to speed. That's the first part of a three part segment okay. Join me in the next segment we're going to go the next little riff, okay. I'll see you there."
