Testing out a new cam, trying to get a good bass sound for video. I haven't listened to Maiden in years, but this was one of my favorite songs to practice to when I first started playing so a homage was in order. Tuning is E standard.
I never had tabs for this so I'm going from memory. It sounds mostly correct to me except for a single note transition that I know I missed when I played it.

I often send this to others to exemplify Harris' talent. Great job.

@Volvo745T Indeed, the man is a legend. I credit him for my gallop style.

Very nice dude. I have a question for you as a fellow bassist who is struggling utilizing my fingers. I notice you play mostly with 2. I can't play at all with 3 or 4 for that matter. I noticed in the chorus are you treming with your middle finger? Do you even use your ring finger at all? Just curious because it gives me hope as a bassist not being able to play with all my digits!

@TheCorpseHammer
In this tune I only need to use 2, but I do use my ring finger, generally for triplets or complex patterns. I generally play music faster than this- not many examples of it online, but use 1:36 of Hypochondriasis as an example- you can see the triplets I'm doing there with ring finger. Practice! I couldn't do it at one point either, but I got used to writing things with triplets and it all fell into place.
