Another funky Killers bassline by Mark Stoermer. I hate to write fret numbers with no
in between them but due to the nature of the rhythm in this one it's unavoidable. Please
however, every time you see '10' it signifies the tenth fret, not the first and an open
and '12' signifies the twelfth. Also, because of the width of the lines, I've had
split some of them which is why some sections are so long.
 
Enjoy, please leave a comment if you find any errors and don't forget to rate!

its ok but some of the hammer ons you need to show and the chorus is a bit dodgy but otherwise its a good effort!
This is a lot better than the other one, 5 stars
This is great, but how do I know the timing of each note?
