I was practicing last night, and stumbled across the first few notes to AC/DC's Hells Bells (or at least it sounded to me like I did)...that got me thinking, Damn, that song was made for mando... So I ask you good people, as I'm a novice to the mandolin, does anyone have the tab to this, or should I just buy the sheet music for a change and pick it out myself?

Thanks in advance for your replies...

I'm sure it's a on dozens of guitar tab sites, you can convert those tabs to mandolin.

PS: Just in case you are not familiar with the guitar: EADGBE

Check out Hayseed Dixie...they do a bluegrass version of it.

0/5 = Split string. If you can't manage the split, fret both strings of the pair at the 5th.

if you are jamming with a bass player here is a neat trick to make the bell sound cross the top two strings of the bass at the 7th or 9th fret cant remember( not a bass player) and pluck the strings pulling up away from the fretboard and it will ring just like a large church bell.:p
