WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Frehley Ace - New York Groove Bass | Ver. 2
--------------------
Tuned down 1/2-step
The line is supportive and contains no flash and no melodic embellishments
like most of his bass playing (the only exception that comes to mind is
Torpedo girl). However, the line works because it actually grooves. If you
hit it right the whole track comes to life.
