With a little help from my friends bass line

Post by ricky22 »

Hey guys, haven't posted in a while, just been lurking and learning. =]
Thought I would link you to a cover i have just mad of WALHFMF.
It's probably my fave bassline of all time.
I know it is not accurate, my fingering is completely different to Macca's, but i think it sounds alright =]
Its just my interpretation without tabs.
Would love to hear what you guys think.

The TI flats have really settled in now, lost their stickiness and are a dream to play

Cheers,
James

Nice effect with the reverse image to make yourself look left handed.

NIce one! 8) Thanks for sharing. Just out of interest what are you playing through in terms of amp, pre-amp, etc?
