All My Life
Foo Fighters
One By One
Tabbed by Bal Sandher
 
This is my tab of all my life with the correct verses and chorus, 
which I haven’t seen yet. To get the Foos sound, you need a thick, 
crunchy valve type overdrive sound, through a bridge humbucker. 
Dave Grohl and Chris Shiflett both use Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier Road
King 100 Watt heads for their live performances, but I doubt they are 
in many people’s price range. I created the sound on my 707 pedal. 
Use overdrive rather than distortion, and have mid gain with high mids
and bass.
