blink-182 - Adam's Song tabber: Laidlaw.P tuning: EADGBe or DGCFAd [either one of these sound great but for the deeper tone go for the DGCFAd] This song is best played with a Fender Strat but you can also use an Ibanez SZ or Rg series guitar. For best results use middle treble and distortion and set the pickup selector switch to 'rythm.' Ampp wise use a Marshall handwired if you can afford it. This tab is in order so just follow on down the page! IVE RETABBED THIS A COUPLE TIMES AND THIS IS THE FINAL ONE IT IS 100% PERFECT [NOTE: you can play this on bass by playing the root note of the verses and choruses] intro:
