Hello all,
My questions refer to the Chantays's original

Where does the glissando start and finish ?

What are the two appreggios played on the electric piano, one at the end of the first run through of the main riff and the other at the end of the next, higher, run through of the riff ?

Your help will be greatly appreciated.

The glissando starts around the 17th fret on the low E string and ends with open E.

The Electric Piano arpeggios are: E, G, B, A, G, A in the first position
and: A, C, E, D, C, B in the fifth position

I start the glissanado on the 19th fret, but probably splitting hairs?

I just listened to the original, and you are correct, it is the 19th fret.
And he slides down to the A and then plays open E

Thanks for the responses

A to A makes sense because its an octave but B to A doesn't but then playing the open E puts it firmly in the key of E

So the arpeggio chords are Emadd11 and Amadd9add11 ?
Gonna be giving this a try !!

Thanks

I've been doing the glissando on the 5th string, start 14th fret, end 2nd fret ( B to B ). Found this on YouTube:

That's how they say to do it on "Play Guitar with the Ventures"
I just always found it easier to do on the E string. I figure that since pipeline was written by someone who had only been playing guitar for about 6 months, the simplest most obvious way is probably the right way.

14th fret to 2nd fret on 5th string sets you up for the palm muted signature 5th and 6th string riff

You could always do the Rob Woolsey version of "Pipeline". Play whatever you feel at the time. Lol! Everytime we play this tune he does somethin' different. Love it!

Be careful following the masses. Sometimes the "M" is silent...........................

I always hear this version when it comes time to play Pipline.

I concur.

From where he starts the gliss high up the neck, it looks like it was originally played on the low E. (0.28 seconds in:)
