Goin' Out Swingin': Authentic Guitar TAB

This collection captures the complete guitar vocabulary of one of rock's most influential bands during a major comeback moment. Authentic TAB transcriptions of all 13 tracks give players the exact parts they hear on the record, making it an ideal resource for guitarists who want to learn classic Mötley Crüe riffing and understand how the band constructs their signature heavy-metal sound.

Raw, driving, and confident. These songs pulse with the aggressive energy and swagger that defined Mötley Crüe, combining heavy riffs with melodic moments that showcase why the band earned their place in rock history. The collection reads like a master class in writing metal that connects with audiences.

Guitarists who know rock and metal fundamentals and want to expand their repertoire with iconic material from a legendary band. This book works equally well for self-taught players building their song library and for ensemble guitarists preparing music for performance or study.

• Pay attention to the rhythm guitar layers beneath the lead lines; understanding both parts will deepen your grasp of how each song is structured.
• Use a distortion pedal with moderate gain settings to capture the album's recorded tone without losing clarity in the note definition.
• Work through the riff sections slowly to lock in the exact timing and articulation before building up to performance tempo.
• Study the arrangement of power chords and suspended figures to understand Crüe's approach to creating heaviness and momentum.

Include songs from this collection in a rock or metal-focused guitar recital or ensemble concert. Individual tracks work well as performance vehicles for intermediate to advanced guitarists, while the full album provides a complete study unit for understanding production-era Crüe songwriting and arrangement.
