but that one sounded talentless - compared to the anesthesia (pulling teeth) solo.

__________________

yeah anesthesia is nice

what effects do you use??

I use a Boss V-wah and a Boss ODB3 bass distortion

rage against the machine HAS got some talented stuff on the old selftitled cd.. it's all pretty funky so fun to play.

I dunno dude, i have this Zoom bass pedal, and it has distortion wah and stuff like that i use both distortion and the wah pedal in the bits that are needed

Primus is great. 5 min alone is fun to play, some parts are so simple and others take practice.

I can play the first half of Anestesia (Pulling Teeth) but it sounds extremely funny because I dont have any way to add distortion, and I dont have a wah pedal or anything to make effects.

I can't believe nobody mentionned "Got The Time" by Anthrax. I love that solo, I can play it, except for the part where he does 5 consecutive slides quickly, i'm no good at slides. Otherwise it's pretty easy, just fast, well the slap part where he hammers the note is pretty hard, but I can do it pretty decent.

Well i got into that song before i had a pedal to make it sound distorted, i just fiddled with my amp to give it a good fuzz sound, and it works, so just try that.


or just get a pedal!

Black Sabbath: Bassically

theres others.

maybe I wasn't reading hard enough and missed it, but have you heard the bass solo on "Tommy The Cat" by Primus? I found a live version of that on Napster, back it the day, and it totally blew me away. Brilliant finger picked tremelo and such.

Yes, Les Claypool is great. But i doubt it´s a bass-solo. It sounds like, but normally solos for us are just bass-riffs for him. Hope you know, what i mean.

yeah I know what you mean, but if you check out that one song there's like a 30-40 second (I think) line in there with nothin repeatin. It's bad as all hell, but I gotcha

I'm going for it.
it's not a real technical solo, but you've heard that, the impressive thing of it is that it is bloody fast!
that's the difficult thing....
compared to stu hamm and shit technically it ain't shit, but the speed...

I think it's do-able
I got the song from kazaa

Im looking at the tabs now. and it looks more simple then it sounds!!!!

-the last riff off the solo is a fingerbreaker though*-

the intro to master of insanity by black sabbath, on the dehumanizer album

Also, Nativity in Black, that solo, is amazing, is like as slapped, sort of.

Im busy with Axiom, and I'm pretty much getting there but I don't have a lot of time for it with college going on and stuff...
I'll get there someday

N.I.B. doesnt' stand for Nativity in Black, it actually stood for "nit-like beard." (the I is supposed to be a lowercase L)

The bass solo has it's own title, Bassically is the name of it, and it sounds like slap in parts because Geezer hits the strings so damn hard with his fingers.

its actually nib, beacuse geezers beard looked like a pen nib or something. ozzy was on crack when he made that up
