Get Real by Kelly Willis
Get Real
Tuning: E A D G B E
Capo: 2nd fret
(1) Tuning: Standard
(2) Capo: For the rhythm it's capo 2 with chords relative to the capo. The solo is written without a capo,
though you can play it with the capo on. :)
(3) Effects: The electric guitar is a clean Fender-style with compression and fast dotted eighth note delay.
In the solo the tone is a slightly overdriven Fender-style with either slapback or doubling.

the occasional triplet upstrum. It makes up the core of the verses.)
