Tuning: Drop-C (CGCFAD)
This is the tab for the 0:58 second song F-4 Phantom, by Buckethead. It's off of his
Funnel Weaver. It's pretty easy, as long as you have a fast picking hand. Palm mute every
except the notes on the lead. All guitars are doubled. Listen to the record to get the
timing.

Now, from 0:36 to 0:38, there's a weird little pause of the guitar, while the drum loop
going. The guitars then resume with this:
