  • Sweet child O' Mine bass cover by MaTT.
    Sorry for the few mistakes, that's not exactly like the tab I didn't learn the song full. Anyway, intro is pretty good so that's the most important part that's why recorded it. That's funny to see how it sounds just near like Duff tone on the intro when you heard the two basses !
    Gear: 1985 Fender jazz bass special
    Terratec DMX 6fire audio card
    Macbook ith Garageband soft

    Please don't ask for tabs, I play only by ear.

    Awesome. Most people under-appreciate the bass in this song.. the bass is what gives this song its groove!
    Sure the guitar riff is catchy, but that bass line is what keeps you coming back... Whether you realize it or not!

    How to start an argument:
    Step 1: Go onto a Bass cover
    Step 2: Claim that bassists should never use a pick
    Step 3: Grab popcorn and enjoy the ride

      Alpha Clown Wow, you're dumb. I was being sarcastic. I was making a joke about how funny it is that people argue over whether bassists should or shouldn't use a pick. I do play bass and I use different techniques depending on how I want the bass to sound... So no, I will not f*ck my popcorn.

      Mr. OL' Skool6191 Parts Unknown.
      It is a Jazz bass special, with Precision pickups, designed by Duff himself.
      Nowadays, you can find another similar bass, the Fender Aerodyne, which is pretty much the same than the duff’s one but with refreshed.

      One of the best bass lines I've heard is a version of the bass line on Free Bird done by some artist for Guitar Hero or one of those other type deals. Unfortunately I only heard it once on UA-cam and could never find it again. Unbelievable bass line. Should have downloaded it when I had the chance.
