The sound is really metallic, kind of like constant string buzz, which enables the bass to cover both the low end and cut through on the minor fills. Key: / = slide up \ = slide down b = bend (whole step) b^ = bend (1/2 step) b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps) pb = pre-bend r = release-bend t = tap with righthand finger h = hammer-on p = pull-off ~ = Vibrato * = Natural Harmonic #(#) = Trill ** = Artificial Harmonic x = Dead notes (no pitch) P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes) (\) = Dive w\bar (/) = Release w\bar Tp = Tap w\plectrum Rhythm Fig. 1 G|--------------------------------------14----13----------------| D|-------------------------------/14----------------14----------| A|--------------------------------------------------------14\---| E|--0-----------------------------------------------------------| G|--------------------------------------------------------------| D|--------------------------------------------------------------| A|-----------------------------------------------------5--------| E|--0------------------------------------------/15\---------5---| Rhythm Fig. 2 G|--------------------------------------------------------------| D|--------------------------------------------------------------| A|--------------------------------------------------------------| E|--0----0----0--0--0---------0----0----0--0--0----3~-----------| < -
