Me and My Bass Guitar

Topics about musical instruments other than guitar should go here. There's bound to be a Carter, LeRoi, or Yo-Yo Ma out there.

Me and My Bass Guitar

Post by Silk »

That main riff is sooo much fun to play, but I can't seem to get them to flow into each other very well. Do you hammer from the 6 to the 7 (E string) to keep it going?

Yeah, sure man....

That'll do it, right? x.x; Not sure of tags. Anyway, I'm gonna keep working on this, thanks for the one tip... it's really tough to keep the movements straight unless I'm really not thinking about it and just rip it off. :(

Edit: Oh, and Tictacs- do you slap the open E with your thumb?

i think this is what you're talking about. Where it says right, i do a thumb downstroke on the open e and hammer the B. i also think this tab is a little weird. but that's how i play it.

Anyone care to type out the tab they use? It does sound a little weird to me, but overall pretty good... thanks for the help :D
