Can anyone please help me with the "intro" and "turnaround" in this song? I just can't seem to work it out. |

well sounds like you will need a 5th string lowering a whole tone by it's self; to accomplish that movement...ha.. _________________ Ricky Davis

Thanks Ricky,I don't have the 5th string lower. Do you know if there is a tab anywhere for this intro? |

I don't know of any tab. Paul Franklin does and did most all of Alan's stuff(other than Lloyd on Remember when)...Ok I just checked the credits for that album and it is Paul Franklin and Robbie Flint(robbie is alan's road steel player from the beginning and plays as well as anyone)...so it really does sound like Paul; but Robbie is freakin AWESOME and could very well have done it. I believe both of them are fairly accessible on the forum...you might ask paul how he played that??

Hey Lonnie, you might be able to "fake" the intro with something like this. Where I drew the arrow just after strings 3,4,5 at the 10th fret is where that real pretty move is. Like Ricky says, you'd need to drop the 5th string a whole tone and then bring it back up...a change I don't have. If you check out Paul Franklin's copedent that b0b posted, his pedal 4 (the Franklin pedal) would allow you to do that.
