I did couple corrections on the Chevelle/Peer bass line... - Stephen
Artist: Chevelle
Song: Peer
Album: Point #1
Instrument: 5-string electric bass, tuning (GDAEB)
Tabbed by (lomans@bellsouth.net)
I heard this song the other day and really liked it. The opening bass line is more
melodic when compared to most of Chevelle’s stuff. I searched online for the tab
and couldn’t find it, so here it goes. This line is correct (for the most part);
I figured it out with my electric without an amp, so I think most of the notes are
sound. Also you can drop-D a four stringer to play this just move the fingering up
the neck on the E-string. E-mail with any corrections. Enjoy…
