iconic Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 (edited) Heard this last Saturday played by The Planks at the Banham Barrel and thought what a tune, got home and thought I'd give that a go....bash my balls I'm struggling it's seems so quick, maybe a tad too tough for a rookie like myself? ..if ya bored have a go and see what you think guys....I thought technical bass started in the 70's :blush: but this guy is good....it's also very different from what I normally play. Any tips to make my pinkies faster? this ones live, but the bass seems a little different, but wow can this guy sing Tablature Return to Arthur Conley bass tabs Arthur Conley - Sweet Soul Music.txt Text tab - January 31st, 2007 Preview Sweet Soul Music.btab Arthur Conley TablEdited by Jan Bjorklund Tuning : E A D G Time Signature: 4/4 tempo 160 | | | | | | |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| |--------------------------------|3-------------------------------| |----------------------------3---|----------------------------3---| | | | | | | | | |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| |3-------------------------------|3-------------------------------| |----------------------------3---|----------------------------3---| | | | | | | |--------------------------------|----------------| |--------------------------------|----------------| |3-------------------------------|3---------------| |----------------------------3---|----------------| | | | | | | |----------------|--------------------5---7---5---| |----------------|------------6/--7---------------| |----------------|8-------------------------------| |----------------|--------------------------------| | | | | | | | | |--------------------5---7-------|--------------------------------| |------------6/--7-----------7---|--------------------5---7---7---| |8-------------------------------|------------6/--7---------------| |--------------------------------|8-------------------------------| | | | | | | | | |--------------------------------|--------------------5---7-------| |--------------------5---7-------|------------6/--7---------------| |------------6/--7-----------7---|8---------------------------5---| |8-------------------------------|--------------------------------| | | | | | | | | |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| |7---7-------5-------------------|----------------------------6---| |----------------------------6---|8---8---------------------------| |--------------------------------|------------8-------8-----------| | | | | | | | | |--------------------------------|--------------------5---7-------| |------------6-------------------|------------6/--7---------------| |----------------------------5---|8---------------------------5---| |8---8-----------8---8-----------|--------------------------------| | | | | | | | | |--------------------5---7-------|--------------------------------| |------------6/--7-----------7---|--------------------5---7---7---| |8-------------------------------|------------6/--7---------------| |--------------------------------|8-------------------------------| | | | | | | | | |--------------------------------|--------------------5---7-------| |--------------------5---7-------|------------6/--7---------------| |------------6/--7-----------6---|8---------------------------5---| |8-------------------------------|--------------------------------| | | | | | | | | |--------------------------------|--------------------------------| |7---7-------5-------------------|----------------------------6---| |----------------------------6---|8---8---------------------------| |--------------------------------|------------8-------8-----------| Edited August 4, 2010 by iconic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beedster Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 It's not hard, just slow it down, get the timing right and the correct fingers in the right places at the right time, and slowly speed it up oh, you'll need a Precision with heavy flats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beardybass Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 (edited) Someone get that tablature out of here before Bilbo sees it!! Edited August 4, 2010 by beardybass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doddy Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 (edited) What's with all those strange numbers that don't make sense? It's not a particularly difficult line. All you're really playing is a major arpeggio with a sixth on top- I,III,V,VI,V-with a little slide in to the third to make it a bit greasy,played over F and C. Top tune though.

JTUK Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Slow connection but IIRC...this may sound like double time for the bass... ? but you could try and swing it to make it easier. Take the 1st demo option by Conley..and don't get confused with what the gtr is doing. That is making the song ping along and you can ignore that, IMO. Play root, fifth..slide to the 6th, and octave. repeat that pattern over the main changes and let another instrument provide the frantic pace.
