By popular demand I present this incredible bass line from the truly talented Nick Beggs of Kajagoogoo. Playing my G&L L2000 (BABE Edition) in single coil mode, both pickups active, with everything all the way up. I am playing it “my way.” Please don’t bother with “that’s not exactly right” comments. That’s getting quite old. Enjoy!
UPDATE: I may re-do this video but for the meantime know that the 5th and 6th notes in the chorus are F and G not G and A as I played it. So, the first part of the chorus goes – low D high D G A F G high G high G
Also, there is a tab out there written by Beggs himself. After studying it I realized that what I am playing is more of a hybrid between the bass and the “synth bass” lines. At times they are doing quite different things and it can be hard to pick out the notes.
