CLUTCH - "guild of mute assassins" Tablature
Official CLUTCH Tablature & Sheet Music »
Here we go again with a wonderful piece of Gear Gonzolla. "Guild of Mute Assassins" was recorded during the "Pure Rock Fury" sessions and appears on the "Careful With that Mic" ep. As usual, to get the muffy guitar tone of Tim Sult you need to flip your pickup switch to the neck (rhythm) position. The chorus guitar part sounds like more than two rhythm guitars so I have tabbed it for one. The solo is just bluesy, bendy stuff in B pentatonic minor and shouldn't pose to much trouble provided you have a good set of ears. The fade out solo is some Hendrixy backward stuff in B minor as well.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official CLUTCH tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
