    Tips And Comments:
    - Playing Technique: Played next to the bridge (and a little closer to the neck for most parts except the main riff) with middle through high dynamics. Just neck knob at full
    - Gear Sound: Added high-mids and treble. Some extra gain on the amp. Clear strings may help, i didn't have any.
    - About The Song: To get the main riff first start slow and get the notes well, it's easier than it looks. I think many questions will apply on some parts so i'll be anwering them separately on comments. Transcribed from studio version with help of isolated bass tracks, and live videos
    Need more tips? Just comment!

    Actually, Roundabout is one of Cris Squire’s “easier” bass lines, so to speak. Pretty straight forward. I don’t know the make of the bass the poster is playing, but I do like the growl. Pretty close to the original. When this song was released, all of us were scrambling to string our basses with Rotosound Strings, and if you were rich enough to buy a Rick then great! A long time ago. Well done, sir.

      It's a good take on the sound, isn't it? One of the reasons I originally went onto Rotosound is exactly the reason you mention. I'm currently experimenting with other strings and sounds after many years of "devotion" to the Rotosounds. Wonder if I'll end up back where I started?

      I thought I'd have a quick bash at doing this again as I haven't played it in years, I'd forgotten how "metal" it was in its precision in use of the pick and muting.
      One of those simple but difficult bass lines. Very enjoyable. Need to lift my action back up to do it properly though, I've been doing twiddly widdly tappy slappy madness (perhaps too long? Lol).
      Isn't it great we have this inspiration on tap nowadays? I'm old (no, older) enough to remember not having the interwebnets and the ability to just click on tutorials, I had to sit next to a tape player and pick it up by ear whilst rewinding bits hoping the cassette didn't chew.

    Hey guys, millennial here. To all the zoomers watching this, I’m excited to see you getting interested in the bass! The Jojo memes are a bit after my time so I may not get them, but I remember how J-rock inspired me to pick up the bass when I was 14. I remember how the bassist community mocked people who discovered the instrument through popular media, and how it felt so alienating. In the end, my decision to keep playing led me to experience the world in ways I couldn’t imagine living without. Music is beautiful; it doesn’t matter how you discover it.
    I first heard this song when I was young. My dad used to play classic rock in the car when he took us to school, so it holds sentimental value for me. I didn’t come to appreciate this song’s musicianship until my interest in anime and Rock Band inspired me to pick up the bass.
    Don’t listen to people who act like you can’t truly appreciate this song because of how you found it. I’m 25 now, and choosing the bass as my first instrument was the best decision I’ve ever made. It taught me the fundamentals of music, and now I am discovering the depth of its expressive potential. I don’t think I’ll ever stop playing it.
    So yeah, welcome to the world of music history! Y’all are kicking ass and changing the world. Good luck.

    I know this has probably been said a million times...but JoJo's brought me here, and I'm so thankful. In watching old rock docs and specials I had heard Yes mentioned briefly many times, yet had never actually looked them up, until I heard Roundabout on JoJo's. I'm usually one of those people annoyed when an artist I like's videos are suddenly inundated by a ton of "___ brought me here". But now I've experienced a moment like that, and I guess it shouldn't matter how you find a great artist, just that you do.
    Excellent cover my friend! I thought the intro was gonna be something crazy after hearing it, glad to see it pretty basic and hopefully I'll take time to learn the whole song soon.

I wasn't there, but the best other version of this is when Geddy Lee from Rush joined Yes as a guest when Yes were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame. Geddy's a massive Yes fan and Chris was one of his inspirations, so to see him play with them and play this song so well was just amazing.
