This is Easy...lol
I saw a lot of BAD Lessons on how to play Ace of Spades. So I thought I would do a little informal lesson. This is a Great Rock an Roll Song and it would help to play it right, if nothing else, out of respect for the Rock GOD Lemmy, "Fast Eddie" Clarke and Phil Taylor - The Legendary Band - Motorhead.
See the Wikipedia about the story of the Band. It started out with Lemmy in 1975 - Fast Eddie Clarke was on the Guitar in 1980. Lemmy used distortion on his bass somehow... it filled out the sound when Fast Eddie was doing leads. I think a good pedal for your Bass Player to get some distortion would be an MXR M-80 it does a ton of different things.
I can't play as fast as I could when I was 12 and now I'm 41 - so I just do the best that I can. I hope you get something out of this video. ROCK ON!
Thanks,
