Yeah, but it isnt the bass in the song - just listen the bass is completely different and alot harder than that, that is the tune played on the electric guitar for bass what you learnt.

Go on mxtabs.net and search smoke on the water, LISTEN to the song then find a tab that is right, listen for the bass it doesnt come in for a bit.

Black Sabbath has alot of neat songs to play for a beginner-intermediate... Like Paranoid, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Die Young etc etc etc...

Can anyone recommend any Maiden songs for a beginner? I've already learnt Running Free, but would like to learn some songs from their Smith/Mcbrain/Harris/Murray/Dickinson era (mid to late 80's). Any help would be great, thanks

well tbh most Maiden songs are very similar (ie they almost always go 7-5-3-5-7) but the first one i learnt has to be The Evil That Men Do, which is more or less that ^ on the A string (look up the actual tab, i cant remember what it actually is :))

I cant beleive no one has said:

Thin lizzy - The boys are back in town (good for working on rythmn and left hand)
Muse - Hysteria (Good for working on speed for both hands)
RHCP - Throw away your television (Good for speed and multi string use)

:D ahh... thats a weight of my mind....

enough of the teen spirit already... that isnt even their best song...
NO MORE TEEN SPIRIT!! :thumb:

i agree with oddbassboy

learn some black sabbath, green day or rise against

Here's three good songs to master for beginners, there pretty easy but they will give your hands a workout!
jeff buckley - last goodbye

[QUOTE=legion88]any real metal? I dont count metallica..?[/QUOTE]

Metallica is the best metal, one of the few bands who can actually play their instruments and can sing good...not much of a fan of bands that just scream and hit their instruments...


"Sell outs?, The only thing we sell out is the stadium everytime we play!"

First songs I learnt:
Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana
Come As You Are - Nirvana
Dammit - Blink 182

A.F.I - Death of seasons - moderate
A.F.I - Days of the pheonix - easy
Billy Talent - nothing to lose - easy
System of a Down - Aerials - easy
The Used - Lunacy Fringe - easy

The Police - Walking on the moon

Uber bass :)

Feel Good Inc. by Gorillaz

its an easy song but it sounds awsome!

no sure if its been said but
rammstein-seemann-easy-bit repitive but its good go with the live version

Bowling for Soup - Almost
Tsunami Bomb - Lemonade
Pennywise - Bro Hymn

Rufio - Just a Memory -imo a bit harder than the other 3, but it's a ****in cool song :)

btw, Does anyone know some easy punkrock songs (but not some crappy bands like Blink and Sum..)

Well the very first tab I learnt when I picked up my first bass (a black yamaha RBX170 which is still have) was... Pink Floyd - Money
This is a great tune that plays around 2-5 fret area on all strings and is a good way to get you moving as it re-inforces the movements in the C Major scale that is kinda the first thing you should learn.
After that I went for the Nice and easy 7 nation army and Brain Stew.

Other good tabs for a bit of finger exercise are:
Polly - Nirvana
Come As You Are - Nirvana
Lovecats - The Cure (my favorite)

These are not easy for an absolute beginner but with a little persaverance they will click and there is nothing more satisfying than the first time you get them to sound just right.

123456789 it does, it takes a little time to get it right but it sounds so awsome,with that distortion.
