Take your bass playing to the next level with this challenging fingerstyle workout. This composition was originally written as a tribute to Rocco Prestia (Tower of Power) and was originally published in my Giants of Bass book. Designed for advanced players, this piece requires precision and endurance, featuring continuous sixteenth-note grooves that incorporate classic funk elements such as chord tones, double chromatic approach notes, and syncopation.
🎸 Gear Used:
• Bass: Fender Custom Shop ’67 Precision Bass with Bass Mute
• Strings: Rotosound stainless steel (.040, .060, .080, .100)
• Recording: Tech21 SansAmp Bass Driver DI
