Title: A Smart Kid Album: Porcupine Tree - Stupid Dream Author: Steven Wilson Transcription: Giancarlo Erra Modified by Mark Botta NOTES: The guitars seem to be more than two (two acoustic and one elecrtric rhythm + final electric solo). I analyze only the main rhythm acoustic (the second follow always the vocals and isn't much present) and the final electric solo. There's also an electric "much effected" electric rhythm guitar, but I chose to wrote down simply the main chords sequence for the acoustic, so if you want to do the electric you can on the same chords. About the second acoustic guitar, to take the same effect with only one I tryed to put a little variation to the main arpeggio and you can make your others (I modify with little changes several sections of the arpeggio to simulate the second acoustic). A good choice would be to make only with piano/keyboard this melodic line. In the final distorted electric guitar the section after "|?" is a personal interpretation, because the sound become confused and at the moment I haven't my electric guitar on which try to reproduce that particular sound.
