@proferic play for the music not yourself dude. It's easy to feel left out of the limelight when guitarists are playing more interesting things. However rather than think your given a shit job because your the bass player. You should think well actually this really carrying the groove. just a tip from a fellow bass player. Don't worry we get our time to make guitarists cry. It's harder to sweep on a bass ;)

@proferic what a idiot u are! As said in my previous message it's ok if you are improvising for the keyboards but it's not the actual bassline. As for the guitarist comment; if they have the right ethic for being in a band, I shouldnt think they would worry about whether theirs is a major role in one song. You obviously have a hang up about guitarists getting most of the plaudits.

@g4geetar Who cares!! The bass line is what the bassplayer playing the song says it is. And hopefully, he's playing up the guitar player's ass while he's doing it!! :)

I liked this very much, it was useful for me, I am guitar player and I can play this during the song, thank you!!

Search for Superstition multitrack on youtube and you'll find how Stevie actually played it. First off, it's played on a keyboard - a Moog to be precise; second, it's in E flat; and third, what you're playing is some of the guitar part and bits of the bass line! Cheers!

search 'funky punk bass slap' for some more funky slap bass grooves

Sounds awesome but that's the guitar part you're playing
I meant its handy to play the improvised version if you haven't got keyboards or as it's called: a clavinet.
It would be better if you played the actual bassline slowly so beginners could learn it.

I think there are many examples of this stuff yet.

Not a criticism but the actual bassline isn't at all like this. What you're doing is an improvisation of the guitar part....handy if there are no keys.

@g4geetar
One of the main things I learned to play songs in all keys. When I recorded this slow example I just forgot original key of that tune.
Sorry about that.
