The Fake Sound of Progress Lostprophets
BAND: LOST PROPHETS
SONG: THE FAKE SOUND OF PROGRESS
TABBER: LyCrAkE - o_thurtle@hotmail.com
TUNING: SEE TAB
Hey i decided to tab this song as there are no good tabs 4 it here, i spent ages on it and
it is perfect
virtually, i did Shinobi vs Dragon Ninja too but that is a bit wrong. 2 guitarists are
needed and i
suggest this effects setup.
LEAD GUITAR: Wah (maybe autowah?) Flange, Clean Distortion
RHYTHM GUITAR: cLEAN dISTORTION, Overdrives of somekind
Ok, i only detuned the bottom 3 strings, and tuning all the way down two tones is not
needed even thought
lost prophets tune the whole guitar down 2 tones i couldnt b bothered and it sounds the
same either way.
Tune both guitars to :-
e - Thinnest
[B]
[G]
[A#]
[F]C - Thickest
A weird tuning i know but i couldnt b bothered to retab it for a totally stepped down
guitar.
Ok here it goes, a well done song this..

Ok, that is exactly how it is played! Pretty easy, but i h8 the tuning down but there we
go thats how its
done. The pitch of the notes is perfect, so dont argue. Dunno about the effects but this
is wot i think
it is.
Thanks very much, if you have ne sensible alterations post them, but its like 99% right,
email me if you have anything 2 say! o_thurtle@hotmail.com
