Van Halen — Wild Thing Live Tab

Wild Thing live(summer nights) — Van Halen

song: wild thing live
artist: Eddie Van Halen
alblum: summer nights
tabbed by: ameyers

This is an awesome remix of a classic hendrix song that actually sounds
good and has the classic evh tone and sound. Van Halen played this
during the summer nights concert. Its a pretty easy song, except for
the solo, but i think it sounds better if you just make one up on the
spot. if you don't have a whammy bar just slowly wiggle the string.
This tab is 99.9% correct, but i couldn't figure out the solo, so here
it is. Also, if you have built in effects or a evh phase 90 pedal use
them.
