agoulding Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 hey guys. Just recently i got hold of some great funk 45 recordings and ive become a huge fan of Black nasty. Ive tried for 2 months now to figure of the bassline to the song "party down on 4th street pt.1" what im asking is, its only a couple of lines, that someone could quite possibly figure out the bass parts by ear for me and write ouyt the tab as i don't have the agbility to do so. if its too much to ask no worries just let the thread die. BUt youll get to learn a tasty bass line in the mean time!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouMa Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I dont think it will be difficult to nail the notes,but the technique will be hard to nail quickly if you are not used to playing the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve-soar Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 D groove all the way baby. Try playing it in small portions, to get your self familiar to the notes, then put the track on, with your bass at the same level, close your eyes and get lost in that groove. Don't worry if you don't get all the notes in the right place, just try to loose yourself in that groove. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris_b Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 (edited) There are a few accents and extra notes but it's based around these 2 bars. | DDD D D F# G G# A | DDD D C C# D | edit for correction. Edited May 7, 2009 by chris_b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
