OFFICIAL TAB GUIDE

Thank you for supporting Marcin by purchasing the tabs.


Marcin’s pieces can be very challenging and this style is particularly difficult to
notate, so while learning it’s recommend you closely follow the official video on Youtube.

The tabs are available in PDF & Guitar Pro formats. It’s suggested to learn this piece
using mainly tablature notation in addition to using standard notation for rhythm.

GUIDE:

The tab is split into guitar (top) and


percussion (bottom) sections.

Left hand hammer-on (tap).


Right hand tap (letter T).

Natural harmonic.
Played by either left (LH) or right hand.

Artificial harmonic.
Kick drum. Hit top of guitar, above
the soundhole or in the middle of
