I make no guarantees as to its accuracy. For those interested, a good way to get the Nirvana "Grunge" sound is just to use very heavy metal distortion plus very thick chorus. Key: p - pull off from previous note s - slide to b - bend (or unbend) note until it sounds like the next one x - strike strings muted lightly w/left hand Main line: Riff: 2x w/o distortion. repeat as 4x with distortion + chorus) desired. . . e------------------------------------------ ---1------ a------------------------------------------ -1-------- d-------------3-3------------------6-6----- ---------- g--3-3-3-xxxx-3-3---5---6-6-6-xxxx-6-6--5-- ---------- b--3-3-3-xxxx-1-1---5---6-6-6-xxxx-4-4--5-- ---------- E--1-1-1-xxxx-------3---4-4-4-xxxx------3-- ---------- "Solo": 2x. . . e------------------------------------------------------- a--1--4--4s6-----4b6b4--2--1--2--1---------------------- d-------------1---------------------3--1--3b5b3--1--0--- g------------------------------------------------------- b------------------------------------------------------- E------------------------------------------------------- . . .to 4x: e-------------------------------- a-------------------------------- d---1-0---1-0---1-0---1p0-------- g---------------------------3---- b-------------------------------- E-------------------------------- *-juggle@athena.mit.edu-* *-Joseph Grossman -* Return-Path: Date: Fri, 30 Sep 94 12:17:41 BST Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana Transcribed by Tim Davis (davist@cs.man.ac.uk) from the album "Nevermind". [ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/n/nirvana/smells_like_teen_spirit_tab_ver_2.html ] To get the Nirvana sound use very heavy metal distortion plus very thick chorus with the pickup selector in the bridge (farthest back) position.

 Smells Like Teen Spirit Solo
 By Nirvana
 
 Transcribed(Decoded[Worked Out]) by James Hunt
 Well, this is how I do it, it sound okay.
 
 
 B:--------8--10~~----8/10----6--5--6--5------------------------
 G:----10-----------6---------------------------8--6--8--10^\8--6-
 
 Just play that twice then do this:
 G:---6--5--6--5--6--5--6--5-5--3-
 
 That's done thrice then do this variation:
 G:---6--5--6--5--6--5--6--5-5--3~~~~~~~~~~
 (just let it ring for a while)
