A7th Pedal Steel Tuning
Song name: My TaniA7th song arrangement by Basil Henriques (as tabbed by David J. Stewart)
This is a wonderful song. I've tabbed out the basic parts to Basil Henriques' excellent video, MY TAHNI (Farewell My Tani) on the A7th pedal steel guitar. I think this is fairly accurate, but not exact no doubt. This is just enough to give you a basic idea of the song and how beautiful the A7th tuning is. Enjoy...
