Zamboni's pieces are sometimes played with the 3 bottom strings tuned an octave lower. The guitar sheet fingering tries to reflect the original lute music. Suggested tempo 108 bpm (quarter notes) - the Divino Kaps video is ~118 bpm. === - note held h - hammer-on p - pull-off 8 - (below the tab) additonal bass note one octave lower in the lute sheet ## - an ornament is indicated in the original |--- ---| |--- ---| |*-- --*| repeat the section |*-- --*| |--- ---| |--- ---| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ the latest version of this tab can be found at http://www.classtab.org if you come across any mistakes please let me know!
