"Old Haunts" Acoustic

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jO-LBl5knXs

Great video and I think the first acoustic version of "old Haunts"

a new acoustic version!!
and for the record, my friend has that same t-shirt! "nothing ever pleased your ears screamingly (?) raw like... the diabolical dr. z", or something like that xD no idea who dr. z is though..

Very cool, thanks for posting.

I was wondering if Brian was going to start screaming after 'just like a tomb' like he does on the album version. Not surprisingly he opted to leave the screaming out.

Might be one of the best acoustic versions He's done. Loved the prechorus.

very cool. thank a lot.

It gives a fresh take emotionally (less angry, more sad/ disappointed) on a fantastic song. Thanks for the link.

this is awesome

that was absolutely perfect. thanks so much for posting. i wish there were more!

absolutely brilliant!
also love the reflections in the mirror ...

Dr. Z is a brand of guitar amplifiers. Brian uses them.

Awesome. Just awesome. Let the tabbing begin!

Fucking hell, that is just so insanely amazing.

Great guitar work as well, can't wait for new material ^^

Oh man...he just take my breath away with this song. Amazing...
I'm waiting for some new stuff

I converted it into mp3 - if anybody's interested ...

It says it's temporarily unavailable...

megaupload does that during certain hours a day, try again later

honestly have no clue why it's not working ... try here for now:
yousendit
that should work!

because the server is overload, there's way too many people downloading stuff at this hour...
it's working for me now though

Amazing! Ahhh, I'm going to blog it. Bahahha.

Does anyone have got the tabs from this acoustic version?

Intro is something like Em, C, G (all with pinky and ringfinger on 3rd fret of the B & E string) and then he slides from the 2nd to the 4th fret on the G string and does a pull-off. Verses seem to be Em, C and G in the same fashion as in the intro, sometimes merely using the a string as bassline. Chorus is Em, C, G to D. In the bridge he does the same thing but leaves a finger out with the Em and C chords(you can check it in the video). The pre-chorus is different obviously, but I am not quite in the mood to endlessly try to figure it out since I suck =P

This is the most sloppy writeup ever but perhaps it might be of use until our tabbing superhero shows up to save the day.

Thank you! Works perfectly, but I think he tuned it down. Havent checked it out yet, if just a half, or two steps.

Has someone the "solo" parts before the chorus?

the "solo" before the chorus is

e - 10-10-10-8-7--------------
b ------------------12-12-12-10

i just joined the forum by the way....glad to be here!

This is right. I prefer to play it just on a single string though, like this:

e - 10-10-10-8-7---7-7-7-5

Loazis is right on too with the chords and the little slide. I've been fingerpicking this and I really like the sound that gives it.

Does anyone know which string he also plays. It doesn´t sound like as if he would only play one string.
