---------------------------------------------------------------------- Guitar tablature of: Castlevania: Symphony of the Night - "Marble Gallery" Original Composition and Arrangement by Michiru Yamane Tab done Chen Liang (cliang78@yahoo.com | http://geocities.com/cliang78) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- TAB NOTATION used in this piece: ~ = vibrato pm= palm mute h = hammer on p = pull off ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Playing Suggestions * There is no correct way to set your guitar, acoustic or electric, since the original piece isn't really for guitars. So just listen to the piece and use your own choice. You can probably make it sound nice with some weird flanger stuff in some spots. It's supposed to be kind of a creepy tune anyway. * The different guitar parts are lined up accordingly. * Suggestions listed later as needed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- INTRO - Guitar III (Rhythm/Harmony, Organ?)

---------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES * I'm still kind of a beginner, so expect errors. * Feedback is highly appreciated. * This piece is actually for organ, harpsichord, and synthesizer. Or probably just synthesizers, but it sounds nice with guitars, which is why I did it. * I interpreted this tab from audio data taken directly off of the Castlevania: Symphony of the Night Playstation game CD and converted into WAV form. * If you've played Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, then you'll recognize this piece from the Marble Gallery.
