Now spec me bass tabs!

badgermonkey · 18 Feb 2007 at 19:09

Well having just started learning bass, I've found already playing guitar has made it relatively easy

So... someone spec me some good bass tabs to practice

Preferably punk/metal and maybe a bit of funk. As I prefer them

I've already learnt

The Kids Aren't Alright - Offspring
For Whom The Bell Tolls - Metallica
The Ballad of Chasey Lain - Bloodhound Gang
Plus a few intros etc here and there.

Looking for something a little more challenging now maybe

Seeing as you're already familiar with Cliff's work and have already got the skills from your guitar, it's got to be "[Anesthesia] Pulling Teeth" time. Go on, it's easier than it sounds [well, most of it!]

Longview by Green Day

John the Fisherman by Primus (only discovered this song because of Guitar Hero lol)

Some people still try it after only playing bass for 2 weeks!

Got any pictures of your setup?

Of the bass?

Also missing my black Wesley flying V. But yeah, this was also posted in m other thread!

I know that they're sucky pictures, this room's about big enough for the bed and desk, fitting all this crap in here was hard... let alone taking a picture lol

Awesome thats a very cool bass! Wouldn't recommend it for a beginner. But since you play guitar anyways then thats fine.

Hows the action?

Maxwell Murder - Rancid...

Although in seriousness check out some other Rancid songs, the basslines for some are hard, but good tunes

that song is actually impossible, everything suggested isn't anywhere near as close to the difficulty Maxwell murder's bass solo is.

I bought it because I'll need a gigworthy bass in a few months anyway, so I might as well get one now
