Tabbed by Spencer


This is the tab for “One Better” from Les Claypool’s new album 
“Of Whales and Woe.” The entire song is slapped and popped, and 
there are many little improvised fills that would take me forever 
to tab, so I haven’t. This bassline is slightly different than 
the live version that the Colonel played on New Year’s and Jamcruise. 

Enjoy!
