well said, i play using fingers but there are parts that are so much easier to play and sound better playing with a pic, i sumtimes use my index finger pressed againt my thumb while playing using the nail of you index finger as a pick
Great palying - just one constructive comment - play the notes with a little more punch and snap in the verses - they are tending to run into each other a little - I used to play this song when I was in a band over 25 yrs ago - memories - excellent job - nice sound too. If you are a Jam fan try and see From the Jam with Bruce Foxton and Rick Buckler - superb live!
Hey, I'm buying the new tribute in natural, but I'm using it for a different style. I play with a pick but I do stuff like Tool, and I hear this bass comes pretty close to that sound. Any input?
hey yeah alot of sounds to be had from these basses and i heard tributes have usa pickups etc so should be good for money,i got rid of mine now too many options i prefer passive one volume one tone is bout as much as i can cope with ha ha
Awesome to hear this! Back when I started teaching bass that song was always one I made the kids learn when they didn't know who they liked and wanted to learn "a real song"...that or Talking Heads. I'd like to hear some Elvis Costello on a G&L bass
Okay... I officially love you! =)

Yes I reckon this guy could nail some of those elaborate Bruce Thomas lines.He is a much underated player.
