No way... McCartney generally used a pick... AND used a pick on this song, so it's appropriate that he did. PLUS, there's many great basslines in songs where you can tell a pick is used. It's a sharper more percussive sound. Listen to any post punk band i.e. christian death or orange juice (bands you probably wouldn't know) and their bass sounds great with a pick. Joy Division I believe uses a pick on the bass and New Order as well. The strokes bass player uses one too I believe. ur wrong.
ok. ma perchè non le completi?

You're not out of tune, but the records bass it tuned up a little more. They did this in a couple of other songs.

Quit looking at the fretboard. you look silly. But you are not alone. Many that I see here on Youtube do the same thing.

Good, but your bass should have first been tuned to the recording.

It's flat compared to the recording. It just needed to be tuned UP slightly. I have perfect pitch and I can hear these things. But Great playing!
