Song: RUSTY CAGE Artist: SOUNDGARDEN Album: BADMOTORFINGER -------------------- Transcribed by Emil Ortenmark,
kfemil@telia.com Standard tuning Comments: The bass maimly mirrors the guitar
riffs here with a few slight variations. Most of this tune
seems to shift between straight and odd time but I'm not sure.
Sometimes I have trouble finding the "1". But that's Soundgarden for
you. Play this with a pick for that growling and biting sound.
The bends are all just shy of a half-step. I haven´t
bothered writing out the exact number of times that Rhy. Fig 2 is
played during the verse. Just play it a lot. You´ll feel
when things head to the next riff. Key: / = slide up \ = slide down b = bend (whole step) b^ = bend (1/2 step) b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps) pb = pre-bend r = release-bend t = tap with righthand finger h = hammer-on p = pull-off ~ = Vibrato * = Natural Harmonic #(#) = Trill x = Dead notes (no pitch) P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath
indicates which notes) Tp = Tap w\plectrum Rhythm Fig. 1 G|------------------------------------------| D|------------------------------------------| A|--0h2-2h4-0h2-0--0h2----------------------| E|------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 2 G|------------------------------------------| D|------------------------------------------| A|--2-2-2--2--0h2-2h4-0h2-0--0h2------------| E|------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 3 G|------------------------------------------| D|------------------------------------------| A|--2-2-2--2--0h2-5--5--2-----0-----------8-| E|-------------------------0----------------| G|------------------------------------------| D|------------------------------------------| A|----7-7-5\-2--5--5------------------------| E|------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 4 G|------------------------------------------| D|--------------------------0-2--3----------| A|--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-----------------| E|------------------------------------------| G|------------------------------------------| D|---4-0-------------------0-2--3-----------| A|-------2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2------------------| E|------------------------------------------| < - - - - - - 2x - - - - - - -
