Complex Basslines

Sign in to disble this ad
Hello I'm new here and would like to know what songs have the most complex basslines in your opinion. I'm trying to get an idea of the technique.

Teen Town is a good place to start. Once you can play that really well come back and I'll give you another one. It's a nice one because a lot of people know it and can help with issues you may have.

I'm talking any genre so "teen town" sounds like a good way to start. I'm Still learning all the scales but i can read the music well.
