How To Play Bass Guitar To Sir Duke Part 1 - Stevie Wonder - Nathan Watts

[Adeladouille]

Thank you very much for this great lesson! It's very effective! =)

(Sorry, my English is not very good...)

@Adeladouille Your english is perfectly fine! Your welcome - I hope it helps you learn to play this tune. It's one of those 'great fun to play' lines.

@MusicLover1701 go to thebassment.info/transcription­s/steview_wonder-sir_duke-nota­tion.pdf or add .tab-pdf after notation in the URL for the tabs with the music. This is just the bass line in standard music notation with or without the tab. It helped me to make sense of the riffs.

are the notes in this tutorial exactly what nathan watts played in the original track ? :)

@MrxXJCXx I wouldn't claim that they were exact....but they are pretty close!

Hey! Where's part two? Really waiting for it!!!

[howtoplaybassdotcom]

@Bootvi

It's stuck in the editing suite! Swamped with work at the moment! Hang in there!

[FluffyWagglekins]

Is Part 2 available somewhere?

[howtoplaybassdotcom]

@FluffyWagglekins Yep. It's coming over the next two or three days with a bit of luck!

[FluffyWagglekins]

@howtoplaybassdotcom Awesome - Thx.

What is that you have just over the bridge?

[howtoplaybassdotcom]

@dLema1 Hey, it's a strip of bath foam. It helps cut the sustain of notes that I'm playing - it's an effect I use for certain styles of music. I often use it in reggae, especially Bob Marley stuff. And I always use it for Motown stuff.

Hi paul, i have been waiting for this song. Nice work. p.s. can i suggest some songs?

[howtoplaybassdotcom]

@Bass2k10 Suggestions are always welcome - there are no guarantees on whether I can actually fit it in though! :)

@howtoplaybassdotcom

OK i was wondering if you can put up barry white 'my first last and everthing' its a really nice bass line

[dirtydvd]

Very nice...the Tab on the e-zine is off on the last bar on the chorus. though, never has the F# or G# on the E.....

[howtoplaybassdotcom]

@dirtydvd Yep - I'll address that when I send the Membership Version of the video out
