Power Bass

Marcus Miller
Band: Marcus Miller

that the tabs for this is wrong. All of the tabs i have found start with a chord
marcus playing the song, he does not play that chord.

I realy like this song, its like a guitarist playing bass, and thats what i like.
Some day, i want to play like him! Any who...

You may think that this song is slapped, but it is not. I was tricked, thinking
that this song is slapped also, but it is not. The famous "Wooten" technique is
what marcus uses here. Basicaly, its using your thumb as you would a guitar pick.

If you need to know how to use technique, go to the following links and watch the video...

this one is some guy playing, he evently plays this song

this is wooten himself giving a lesson on thumbing

anyways, enough blabber, heres the tab!!

Tuning: EADG
