  • Anyone that can "listen to the riff: should not have to refer to this video.

  • It is the opening bass line to the song "Knock On Wood".

  • I had no problem playing it by ear.

  • what the fuck is this shit

  • come on, this guy says nothing about the strumming - since i see he's using a pick - and he just enumerates the notes without linking them, says nothing about how the song should be played. 1 star is too much for this shit

  • What he's playing is not the intro. The intro is E-G-A- B-D-B. You rest after the B, then go to the verse riff in A. What he's playing is the part right before the F#. It's only played once in the whole song.

  • why is an 'expert' bass player giving a beginner lesson playing with a pick?

  • yeah seriously he's a douche

  • This should be removed from the Expert Village collection. This man is by no means an expert nor is this video helpful at all.

    Honestly, just listen to the riff.
