Song: 		New Funk
Artist: 	UZEB, Written by Michel Cusson
Album: 		Live in Europe (1988), ? (?)
Tabbed by: 	Philippe Alexandre Clegg (phil25uk@hotmail.com)

This is a fast paced funk riff articulately played by the master, Alain 
Caron. He is
of course using his famous fretless 6-string, but I have transcribed it for 
the 4 string
(fretless or fretted, both sound good). Set your bass to the bridge pickup 
and play
above it - you should get his sound this way (Maybe add a chorus pedal as 
well). Have fun!
