Song: Neruppu Da Movie: Kabali Language: Tamil Year: 2016 Composer: Santhosh Narayanan Guitarist: Jhanu Chantar Tabbed by: Java8, Santhosh Rajagopalan 7 String guitar tuned to AEADGBE Only Riff 2 was played with the 7th string. So for that riff, if you have a processor pitch shift own an octave or two while playing in the A string of a 6 string guitar. These are the riffs played in the song pretty much in order but not completely.
