    Trickier than you think, specially the chorus, great for practicing accuracy on the fretboard at fast tempos, managing a good spacial intuiton of your instrument. Used an isolated track so i think the transcription is quite spot on. Let me know if you have any question, i'll answer. Song is in B Minor (transposed, originally Bb Minor) :
    B Natural Minor Relative to D Major (F# C#)
    i Bm (B D F#)
    ii° C#dim (C# E G)
    III D (D F# A)
    iv Em (E G B)
    v F#m (F# A C#)
    V F# (F# A# C#) Borrowed from B Harmonic Minor (stronger dominant used consistently on minor keys)
    VI G (G B D)
    VII A (A C# E) or suspended Asus4 (A C# D)

      Hey mate, great cover. Just wondering if you recommend using strict alternate picking for this song?

    • @YeOldEPatT
      @YeOldEPatT 3 года назад

      Those are chords, not single notes on the G string, in the chorus. Isus4 to I5, VIMaj7 to VI6, VIIsus4 to VII5, and Vsus4 to V. (I wish I could tab it out in the comments to make it easier but, you seem to have a grasp on theory also wish "I" didn't look exactly like "l", but I digress.) Other than that, impeccable.

    Wow, as a bass player trying to do this tune justice, I'm sure glad I found your video. From what I can tell you extracted the bass line from this densely mixed track perfectly, and you made the performance look easy! And it sure helps to tune the bass down 1/2 step to take advantage of open strings. It's a bitch in Bb! 😅 Oh, and thanks also for showing the up-picking technique in the chorus. Puzzle solved. Thank you!!
