I cannot vouch for electric, but this tab sounds really good on an acoustic guitar. I highly suggest you do not follow this tab 100%. Use it as a guide, but improvise with different chord placements, hammer ons and rhythm effects to make it your own. If you need any help, don't be afraid to tweet @izolate. Happy playing!
