Tab Gitar U2 – New years day live Versi 1

Song: New Year's Day (Live) Artist: U2 Album: U2 go Home - Live From Slane Castle, Ireland Tabber: Andrew Marks To be honest I cannot work out Edge's sound for this song. I like to term the sound as 'Toxic'. I can say though that Edge uses a hefty amount of reverb, and I think probably a little delay effect too. Tune your guitar down 1/2 step.
