This goes especially for Rhy. Fig 13 where I¥m sure that the bass does a motion like what I¥ve notated here but I¥m not positive about the exact notes. 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 Gb|--------------------------------------------------------| Db|-----------------------5--------------------------------| Ab|------------------------------5----5--------------------| Eb|--2b-----r2-/15\----------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 2 Gb|--------------------------------------------------------| Db|---------------------------------------5----------------| Ab|--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0---0--5h-7--0-------5-----------| Eb|--------------------------------------------------------| < -
