L161 Disco bass w open string run
Add to favorites Disco bass with open string run, Im playing the bassline in Bb and Ab and using the open A string as part of the fast run – works fine for many reasons: its goes so fast that you actually dont hear the note, A is chromatic note to both Bb and Ab, I kinda mute the note too with my left hand…
James Jamerson did these open string runs a lot – many soul songs were in “jazz” keys – F, Bb, Eb, Ab, Db etc
Want the transcription + TAB for this bass lick?

I wish there was this sort of thing when I started in the mid 60′s. I really like this line.
I used to figure all this type of stuff out, what a pain.
I’ve decided to contribute. Thanks Gabriel
Thx man

: Hmm, the link has gone missing, let me locate it and get back to you
: Hey Marlowe, I bought the L253 in order toget the backing track. However, there is no backing track without the bass. Is there a way to get this?
: Thanks Marlowe! I guess I better start saving up. I can't wait to get one. I'm positive if I get one then my playing automatically gets funkier right? 
: Hank: my sig bass will be presented at the Frankfurt musik messe in march. I dont know of the price but i guess it will be priced in the same range as Sandbergs California models. There is a couple of american retailers, check Sandbergs site.
: Hi guys!
: hi, GospelBassMan
: Hello community!!
: Will your bass be mass produced? Do you think it will be affordable (relatively speaking) Will it be offered online for us Americans that wanna buy it?
: Thank you very much.
