PaulWarning Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I'm probably just making excuses for myself but ISHST would be easier to play on a short scale bass like a Hofner than say a big fat necked Precision Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote]just checked it out, doesn't sound like a double bass to me, and it's in C which means there's some open strings in there which makes it easier to play, it is the same as ISHST (apart from that's in E) but it's a pretty generic rock and roll bass line so Talking about you probably wasn't the first song to use it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spencer.b Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 I know what you mean , it's the string skipping of the quavers on beats 2 and 3 don't quite fall under the fingers, macca played it with a pick of course and I think this adds to the smooth articulation. Fairplay for learning all this stuff mate , there's so much to be learned from detailed transcription especially of one of the masters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
