Have you checked out Steve Glasgows transcriptions of AJ's lines?

Cheers, AJ is the dogs privates as far as I am concerned.

Open strings should be used as and when needed and never overlooked when playing a riff that requires a large shift of position, if an open string can be used to make a change of position smoother. I have included a PDF file which demonstrates this. It so happens that the two examples are very similar but these are the only two transcriptions I could think of where the open string could be used in this way.. Both are Stevie Wonder songs so it could be that is why they are similar. I am also aware my explanation of playing in position deserves a better explanation if I have not made myself 100% clear. One final note, why not play an open string with the same note fretted or even alternating between the two, mute one and play the other etc.etc. [attachment=101305:Position.pdf]

Nice one Jake. Thanks for this. I am not sure how it can be just me but, transcription page doesn't show properly, I can only presume that if yoy used tables to write the page then they are somehow overlapping. The buttons are sitting ontop of the text. I checked the page with IE and Chrome and they are the same. I can send you a screen snapshot if you want so you can see the problem.

Bought a Drum Machine from [color="#ff0000"]Earbrass[/color], Great communication , good packaging, quick postage. Highly recommended to all Cheers

Still interested in a copy of volume 3.

It depends how hard you do the slap,

For me double thumbing is just too awkward. The Mark King left hand slap is a far better in my opinion, a bit of a brain bender to begin with but works fine in the end. Check out Stuart Claytons Transcriptions of the Level 42 songs to see how he does it. Love Games is a good starter.

[quote name='Dazzlovski' timestamp='1329039877' post='1536232'] Hi Wal4string. I have the book but I'm hanging on to it. More than happy to scan and e-mail the pages to you if you PM your e-mail address to me :-) [/quote] PM sent.

That version is a piano copy. Not good at all. Cheers Anyway. I hope to be getting Volume 2 sometime soon, as and when it arrives I will let you know.

Anybody have a copy of Level 42 Bass Transcriptions Volume 3 they want to sell. Book now out of print and can't find a copy anywhere. Cheers

This any good? Its a transcription I did myself. [attachment=99640:What I Am.pdf]

I sold my Classic Stingray to Claudio. Deal went really smoothly, very trusting, paid for the bass and asked me to hold onto it for over a week before sending, Would not hesitate dealing with him again. Many thanks Ron

bassmasterwraith bought a Fender Jazz V from me. Sale went really smooth with good contact from start to finish. It is good to know she has gone to a good home. Many thanks.
