Hold It Together - tabbed by Astat Guitar 1 - D A D G B E (Slightly overdriven w/reverb and slight chorus) Guitar 2 - D A D G B E (Distorted) Guitar 3 - D A D G B E (Distorted) Guitar 4 - D A D G B E (Distorted w/sub-octave fuzz) Guitar 5 - D A D G B E (Distorted w/sub-octave fuzz) *Note* Guitar 1 is a Fender Telecaster. Guitars 2 and 3 are Fender Stratocasters. Guitars 4 and 5 are humbucker-equipped. Use the bridge pickup unless otherwise noted. The main guitar line in this track (Guitar 1) actually establishes a theme that comes back in a slightly altered form later in the album during Make It Up As I Go. I'm not sure if this was actually intentional or not, but the similarity is hard to ignore. Anyway, said main guitar part appears sporadically throughout the song, so I've used timestamps to note where it happens - there are a couple slight variations on it too. During the bridge, Guitars 2 and 3 mostly play 2-note powerchords in the bridge (the first interval they play is a major third, strangely enough), while Guitars 4 and 5 play root notes in a lower octave. Guitars 4 and 5 then go on to supply some staccato powerchords under the last chorus.
