  • Nice playing Dave. Also nice to see you haven't gone all 'diva' with a really expensive bass. How you getting on 2 years on? You go on to study music?

  • I liked the motifs you used in your solo, and thought the way you changed up the groove after the solo was really imaginative and cool :)

    Check out my version and leave a comment to let me know what you think.

  • alsome man!

    congrats to play some samba in bass, tanks to show a great groove in a brazilian ritm,

  • Good stuff man, still working on the tapping myself- it's really difficult stuff! Really Nice bass solo too. I think you got a little excited on the slapping though, but that's easily fixable. Really good stuff! :D

  • If you're doing grade 8, do you have the bass backing track for the song "download" which is grade 3? My CD is all scratched (doesnt work) and i really need it for my solo exam for next thursday. Can you please send it to me? If you can, let me know and ill give you my email and you can send it to me via email.

  • Hey man. i like your version of this, the tapping section is very fluent and i like your artistic additions to the finger style part.

    your timing was excellent. (apart from the lick at the end of the section that outlines a c major scale.

    I liked your solo and you accompaniment to the guitar solo was very in time and in style, you held the groove well.

    My favourite song in the grade 8 syllabus along with 667!

    keep it up!

  • Very good!

  • You absolutely nailed the improv.

    Well done man!

  • Again, constructive criticisms...

    Try and get the Stacatto note in bar 9 crisper.

    Good effort on the 2 handed tapping, it's probably more accurate to the music than mine!

    Try and keep the slap section relaxed but tight, and watch out n that high fill in section after it!

    Great, musical and melodic solo. Really nice. Your accompaniment to the guitar solo is nice too, and stylistically relevant.

    you get 5 stars for this one.

    Keep working on these and you'll have no problems with the exam.
