E_MaN Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 I'm really in the mood of late to learn a bass solo, however I'm not sure what so I was wondering if you friendly people could help out. Certain aspects I like are, - Chordal work or just chords - Harmonics (Don't say Portait of Tracy, learnt it, played it, forgot it ) - Strong sense of melody If there's a youtube video or such like even better. Cheers m'dears Quote
OutToPlayJazz Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Victor Wooten's "Amazing Grace" seems to fit the bill. Yes, it's on YouTube & you can get it on musicnotes.com for a couple of dollars for the sheet music. Quote

Bilbo Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 Jeff Berlin's version of 'Dixie' is cool - one of the last things he did that was worth hearing!!. Quote

alexclaber Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 (edited) AJ's solo two thirds of the way through this tune from Callé 54 is rather nice: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1EcxC5AgnPU"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1EcxC5AgnPU[/url] Alex Edited July 9, 2008 by alexclaber Quote

budget bassist Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 [quote name='johnnylager' post='235479' date='Jul 9 2008, 07:56 AM']Cliff Burton - Anaesthesia / Pulling Teeth from Kill 'em All[/quote] Damn, beaten. You'll need a fuzz pedal and a wah for that one though. Some cool chordal work and stuff in there though. One i've really been trying to get hold of and failing miserably is the tabs for the bass solo Rob Trujillo played before Orion on Metalica's escape from the studio 06 tour. If anyone could point me in the right direction i would be very grateful Quote

Pretty cool, I like it for when I wanna mess about and have a little fun. Quote
