Diego Thanks, Josh. For our convenience, could you add your links (tabs etc) here too? Also, is your intro and outro (crazy tapping!) played on your bass? Do you have tabs for them?

July 7, 2015 03:48:40 · Reply

Josh Fossgreen Good idea Diego, will do. Here it is for this one: FREE PDF FOR THIS LESSON: http://joshfossgreen.com/?p=929 Yes, outro and intro are both all bass! The guitar-style melody line at the end is bumped up an octave with the pedal on my Boss multieffects unit. Don't have lessons for them as yet but may do in the future!
