Guitar cover of Pneuma by TOOL with full guitar tabs. From the album Fear Inoculum. TONE GUIDE available here: patreon.com/RockinTabs Drop D tuning DADGBE
You've cracked the code for imagery , tabs in the lower part of screen , perfect zoom in on fret board , editing in Danny Carey !!! I'm blown away !! It's great to learn from and play along to dude . Keep them coming man , some shorts to get on peoples algorithm maybe ?!
Thank you so much for this very thoughtful and kind comment! Appreciate the feedback and so glad you're enjoying it. I have been making Shorts, which I'll continue to do. Thanks again and have fun playing! 🤘
Just goes to show that technical don't always mean most notes played! When you break this down, none of the riffs or fills are hard, but the timing is crucial to making it all work! Love it!
Haha it's a tricky one! Definitely all about feeling, overthinking it doesn't help at all lol. And couldn't agree more about Adam Jones! Appreciate your kind words 🙏🤘
Incredible. Not just the playing but the display of how meticulous and detailed Tools music is gives us even more appreciation to their music. Thanks for showin me the real deal I’ll check out your channel!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it. It really does give you a better appreciation for their music. Love watching the visual relationships between the instruments.
9:20 on fucks so hard. Fantastic cover. The guitars on this album take you on so many journeys. I have sat and listened to every track on Fear Inoculum start to finish many times
He definitely plays his own way and it goes against everything that a teacher would teach to a young student. It’s weird how the stars align with four people of such artistic talent to break all the studies to bring a new sound to music.
I approach songs like these from my own perception. That leads me to give up very fast and hate the song. A couple of weeks later I fall in love with the songs again and listen to it until I get the groove from a different perspective and start enjoying listening to and deciphering the the parts. All of a sudden the songs feels easy because i can memorize everything plus its not hard to play like Animals as Leaders.
I woke up this morning and said right, today you're going to learn pneuma. Here I am, at 23:44pm and im stuck in schrodingers prog trying to remember this w/o tabs 😭😂
That means a lot, thanks so much! Just keep playing, just a little bit every day. Keep your guitar by the TV or wherever you hang out a lot. Pick it up for even 5 minutes at a time. You'll get there sooner than you think!
@@RockinTabs Yup - They are ridiculously good live. If you visit my channel - You’ll see I caught some footage of Pneuma - then security caught me recording and told me to put my phone away lol
@@RockinTabs no! Thank YOU! I have a drum cover I did on my channel but as I was recording Paradise City and Wild Side I had to go to the hospital for 9 months and haven’t finished putting it to music and mastering the videos. I should do it. Anyway, always appreciate those who respect songs enough to cover them. You did great
Well damn, i am a drummer and found this infinitely amazing -- knew it had many time signature changes, but so fun to see and hear it this way and to "try" and tap along!
Definitely of clean. Also is it just me or does the guitar not get enough love in this song? I know the drums are crazy and Danny shows his range but honestly when I've been listening to this song too much and I go to sleep with it in my head and wake up in the morning it's the guitar riff that's playing over and over. Really simple yet so deceptively striking.
Thanks so much! I fully agree with you. Yes, the Danny drum cam is insane and really fun to watch, but the guitar parts are what stays in my head too. 🤘
Great job, man. Adam's guitar parts are far away from shred difficulty and very modest in tonal versatility, but rhythmically they're quite a nut to crack. Thanx for posting...two thumbs up.
Flawless playing. First time seeing your videos. A fan now. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 Killer song. Wish you the best of success amigo. Abrazo Mexicano!!! 🤘🏻🇲🇽🤘🏻🇲🇽🤘🏻🇲🇽🤘🏻🇲🇽🤘🏻
..how the fuck did you crack the code of the time signature on this song😳??? That's so amazing👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻. Not, that it makes it any easier to play it😂😂😂.. great job, dude🤘🏻
I wish I could take all the credit for this one. Tool tabs definitely require the whole community to help assemble. Sounds like you would enjoy the new video of Mike Portnoy trying to figure this song out from scratch. It's great. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-b3sEdST3D9E.htmlsi=MKFHXgnKCcoFPcOJ
There seems to be a slight mistake in the tab in the beginning riff on measure 26 and it repeats, it looks like you are playing 12-12-14 but the tab says 12-14-14, on those chords, E - A - D strings respectively. You're def barring the 12th fret and playing the 14 with your ring finger. Correct me if I'm wrong because the tab doesn't sound right when I play it that way. Otherwise great job and awesome tone/playing this really helps visualize the song for me.
Thanks! It's the AJ Standard, wish it was the custom! I have the signal chain posted in my Tone Guide on Patreon. Pnuema Intro tone post is free for everyone, just scroll all the way to the bottom. The very first post. Patreon.com/RockinTabs Stinkfist video coming Wednesday!
You sure know your amps! That's too cool. I actually bought this off a friend in 2001 and have rocked it ever since. I love it! It really does have a great sound 🤘😎
I can't understand the 3rd chord you have in the intro. The 3/2 fingering. It doesn't sound like you're playing that and doesn't sound right when i play it.
Look at the angle stating at 0:37. I have my middle finger on the 3rd fret of 6th string. Ring finger on 3rd fret of 5th string and pointer finger on 2nd fret. I lift up my middle finger but keep the other 2 fingers down for the 3/2 chord. I believe I'm playing it how it's tabbed. Slow motion might also help. It's a funky chord but sounds good in the song, for the very short time it's played. Let me know if it still seems weird to you though.
Hello! Thank you so much. I have started a Patreon to be able to share in detail how I got my exact tones. I made the Intro Tone free so you can go check it out.

By any chance do you mean 10/16, 11/16 and 12/16? I was recently reading Adam said part of it was in 33/16, which would add up. I think it's the part I have as 17/8 (34/16).
Thanks! I absolutely love it. My favorite guitar for sure. The tone it gets is just awesome. It's my first Les Paul. Gotta say I find my Telecaster easier to play, but I absolutely love the sound I get from the LP.
The delay settings I used do not change at all during the song. It's very possible the tempo speeds up though, I would have to double check if you want me to.
That's a great question! The short answer is, I don't. I use a program on my computer to get the tones for my videos. To keep it simple, I just choose one tone to play the whole song with and then change the tones for the rest of the song in post-production.
Lmao welcome to Tool tabs! When you see those crazy time signatures with Tool, you can break it down into smaller groups to help visualize it. In this case it would probably be a 4/4 (8/8) + 9/8 = 17/8. The 9/8 can be broken down further into 4/4 (8/8) + 1/8. It can definitely help when learning songs, but ultimately, these crazy signatures are all about feeling. It's too much to try to compute while playing in real time.
@@RockinTabs I can't read music, but I know the basics of it from when I was in band in high school, so I can't even begin to fathom what its like to actually read and play their music but it just seems like it'd be easier to play it by feel rather than read and comprehend what they're writing on paper.
I like the answer above for how to count it out. Usually, something like 17/8 can be broken down into smaller sections like (6/8 + 6/8 + 5/8). That's just an example. it doesn't necessarily apply to this part in particular. To make it more complex, I recently saw that Adam Jones may have actually said this is in 33/16, whereas mine (17/8) would equal 34/16. I may have an extra 16th note in there. I'm learning as I go and have a very hard time with Tool time signatures. They make my head hurt lol. I'm enjoying the process though. With time, I hope to understand their time signatures better and be able to better explain what's truly going on.
I joined your Patreon just to be able to download and print out your Pneuma tab, so I can then follow along to the youtube video. Where can I find the printable tablature? Thank you!!@@RockinTabs
I just put out a video that is a bass and guitar cover of this song. No way I'll ever get the drums down too though lol 😅 Bass & Guitar Cover: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-95YS5cvzBCo.htmlsi=HYFM2WwaMNsOf3MX
Sorry but your first chord of the second intro riff (bar 25) is wrong: it's not supposed to be a Dsus2 (from low to high string 0, 12, 14 as you play it), but an A5 ,(which is played 0 on the A string and 14 on the D string, and not playing the low D string at all)
Could you please tell me what measure number or what minutes:seconds you are referring to? I think the tabs are accurate, but I would like to double check what you're referring to.
@RockinTabs Just a simple mistake, and it's an obvious an easy correction when playing it (also easy to just see where fingers are from your camera angle). Thanks for your tabs. I shall subscribe 🫡
I'm not sure I understand. Do you mean how to find the one count? It's easier to see them in the tabs. It's the first beat after each measure (vertical line).

Do you mean starting at measure 42? That's coming from the delay pedal. It repeats what I play, with a delay. You can recreate that yourself by just repeating the chords, but this is how Adam Jones plays it.
I was wondering the same thing. As the comment above said, the video of Mike Portnoy learning this song on drums came out at the same time this started picking up a lot views. It could definitely be getting a bump from that.
Yes and there's a reason he played it. It was given to him as a challenge because they couldn't think of anything else/better to challenge the composer of "The Dance of Eternity" with than one of Danny's masterpieces.
Adam Jones should be ashamed of himself...Danny and Justin worked their asses off...stretching their musical identities and he shows up with Drop D power chords and a Queensryche "bridge" from the 90's. I am, and always will be, a massive Tool...but, he sure mailed this one in.
