This tutorial for bass guitar players looks at how to play the song Love Cats by The Cure. Now the original of this was probably played on double bass rather than a fretted electric bass - so there's one part of the song particularly that's difficult to replicate properly on the bass guitar. So I've shown a way of playing through that section that sounds authentic and will work in a live band context.

  • Good lesson thx. The walking section has two slightly varied bars though.

  • @qyb07 I don't have time in these lessons to teach every nuance...I try and teach the major parts so that they can be put togehter to play through the entire song.

  • thanks it helps me a lot.

  • @megaAce808 Your welcome. Once you've learned it, pick another tune and go learn that too!
