Hannes Grossmann - Retrospective Monologue (The Playthrough) (2024)

Want to play this? Then get the tab book! Arranged for guitar and transcribed by me. Here’s the link: Puh, this one will be hard. There’s so much to talk about in regards to this song, solo, tab book and video, as well as my collaboration with Hannes. In case you missed it: Hannes approached me in October 2022 and asked me to record the guitars for his new album. Album because at that point he wasn’t sure yet what kind of release it’ll be. I recorded all main guitars, so rhythm and leads without solos, in February exactly one year ago. My job was not just recording the guitars, but also arranging them into something playable, including all articulations and fingerings. Basically, Hannes sent me tabs with no palm mute indications and unplayable fingerings. Some of them resembled something playable, others were just numbers on strings, that had to be rearranged completely. Hannes compo
