Shoot You Down by The Stone Roses | Guitar Cover | Tab | Lesson

For the audio, I'm using my Gibson ES330 into a DAW using the Overloud TH3 plugin. Main sound is clean-ish Tubescreamer into Blackface-type head with 2x12 cab. I also added a bit of Phaser.

I assembled a backing track to play over. I used Session Drummer 3 (brush kit) with a loop. It took me ages to program something even slightly close to Reni's playing on this! Also Mani's bass line is simple but class on this tune, of course. Fits perfectly with the drums.
