A while ago I suggested playing a guitar solo on your fretless bass to
become accustomed to playnig up that high. Playing along with the recording
will help you with the tuning. Here is the opening and middle guitar solo
for "Fade to Black" by Metallica. If you are in a three piece band, your
guitarist can play the acoustic rhythm part, while you go crazy on the solo.
To get your bass to more sound like the guitar in the recording, I suggest
some distortion, especially in the highs. Make sure to keep the level down
enough so that you don't get unwanted noise though.
Guitar transcription originally transcribed by Carl Culpepper, then keyed in
by A.J.Harsley then arranged my me.
