M: "Thomas Mitterfellner"Subject: b/bach/well_tempered_clavier.tab Date: Wed, 25 Feb 1998 06:06:13 PST WELL TEMPERED CLAVIER PRELUDE 1 / C-major By J.S. Bach Piano arranged for guitar and bass (because guitar can't play notes Below d) But until 18th measure the bass isn't needed - just see yourself! Transcribed and tabbed by Tom Mitterfellner (it took me about two days) Hints: Dropped d-Tuning seemed suitable to me (low to high: D A D G B E) You may find it easier to hammer-on than to pluck each note individually When there are two notes on one string to play. All fingerings are suggestions I feel quite comfy with. Any comments, suggestions ...? Email me! Email:t_o_m_m@hotmail.com Here we go ... hope you enjoy!
