top 5 bass players

I actually find tapping etc harder on bass...

Tapping on bass = piss easy. The strings are easier to hit

But seriously, I do wonder if I ever put together an actual line-up of Fay Wray, whether the bassist will turn round and go "Wtf?" due to the amount of complex tapping there is in our songs...

Twadd, practice tapping on the low E on your 6-string.



Doug McKean, of the now defunct punk band, The GC5, is a great bassist. I noticed this on their song "City Lights", where he does a neat little bass solo.

Steve DiGiorgio is a wicked player as well.
