SONG: FIVE MAGICS
ARTIST:MEGADETH
ALBUM: RUST IN PEACE
I write bass for five string generally cos that's what i play but where the
song doesn't need that extra low end phatness i'll tab for a four string
bass.
i have the time changes and counts/accents that go with them to help. the
only symbols used are |----%----| for "repeat the bar", > for accented beats
and ^ for hammer ons.
enjoy.
