BBC Snooker Theme Song.

This is the BBC snooker theme song.
A cool tune that’s good to impress, at the same time easy!
Best played on a Les Paul with slight fuzz distortion add a little reverb, switch to Treble humbucker pickup and turn tone knobs half way down.
I don’t know the exact timing but just play it as fast as you want.
This isn’t a 100% accurate Tab but as close as I could get.
