Its not black mail, it doesn't cost u anything. I want to know that people appreciate my lessons.

Took me ages to do the can't stop tab and noone gave me a +, it made me sad

You can also give me rep for my other tabs to make the 20 go faster.

Why would it make you sad? Dman's doing so many videos out of good will, and he's prolly not gonna get much in return. A few people will buy his videos, but I he'll be able to live on the premium vids money alone.

You should be doing these out of good will, like D'man does, and if you're doing em out of good will, you shouldn't be sad if you don't get rep.

Am I right or am I right ?

Your not right, he gets rep points and I dont

Who gets rep points? D'man? Why would he want rep points on his own forum? We all respect him & love him, even if some idiot / retard makes him have -50 rep

I'm gonna put up the next lesson on Friday after school around 9pm (about 12-2pm for England but I'm not sure), and mabe if I get most of my work done, do another on Sunday.
Sorry bout the delay, I fell behind on my school work, but im gettin it back on track.

Video + Tab:

"Cornman" by Kinky.

This song featured in Little Big Planet on the PS3, and is great fun to play along to. It's pretty simple with only two riffs, so it should be easy for anyone to pick up

I have a short video on how to play it; my first video lesson, so I messed up in a couple of places lol Let me know what you guys think....

NOTE: It's in Drop D tuning

Thanks goes out to Supermaximo for Rumble of the Diesel by Les Claypool. Although I am still very new at playin bass and cant slap and pop yet this is going to be a goal to play this rockin song! Thank dude!

The next song is more to help changing strings and keeping the same rhythm.

Alright, Enjoy.

Nice Malice. It's a good one to play to get your alternative finger playing going.

I normally play the open A rather than playing 5th fret on the E.

You just listen to the song and you'll have no problem figuring out the timing.



(sorry about the quality of the post, I was in a hurry...)

Ok, this is the first time i do this.

I think i figured out: The Unforgiving II By Metallica. ( I could still be a little bit off though)

There should be another note between the last G and the first of the last three open E’s. I just haven’t found it yet, but I’m sure it’s somewhere on the A string

This is just a crazy idea, which will not be fulfilled(if I even attempt it) until I get a decent camera. But I thought I'd just throw it out there: would anyone at all be interested in bass how-to videos of every track off Metallica's Kill 'Em All album? This is the track listing(just for anyone who doesn't know it):

1. Hit the Lights
2. The Four Horsemen
3. Motorbreath
4. Jump in the Fire
5. (Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth
6. Whiplash
7. Phantom Lord
8. No Remorse
9. Seek & Destroy
10. Metal Militia

I'm definitely willing to record and upload all of them, with the exception of Anesthesia which would be a "maybe." I know Cliff never really played it the same way twice but I would still like to get as close to the studio track as possible. So I'll record that one if I can figure out enough of it to please me, haha.

Once again, this would not happen for several months, but I would love to start recording by the end of the year. Gives me plenty of time to burn every song into my brain(and bust my balls over Anesthesia), haha. I was just throwing the idea out there, wondering if anyone would appreciate me doing that sometime.

Stop! Hammer time!

This is the riff in D, but it requires two strings to be tuned down.

Best. Get an octave pedal and play

The high D is sometimes played and sometimes not, but the whole song is this riff over and over again, sometimes with high D and sometimes without.

srsly? I kept playing that my riff over and over again and it sounded swell to me.

I think it's in a #D btw...

EDIT: Edited to what feels right to me... I dunno why I had the first fret signalled, it's the second fret on the A.

Now I'm pretty sure it's in a #D

You mean D-Sharp? The # sign comes after it and you should equal out it on your tab with the other notes. I usually play it in A, since I don't like to go through the hassle of tuning my bass for every fart.

G -----------3-2--0--0-3-2------(7)-------

Add an octave pedal and play

yea, D sharp.. my bad... Don't usually write it..
And loweing to D sharp it like a 5 -10 second thing.. I don't mind it

I failed this time. Tuning one string a half step up means you either have to tune the other one too, or play it one fret higher.

This is it, then?

I was just toying around on my bass when i eventually came onto this.

I’m thinking of saving this one as an outro. =D
