Improvement tips?

Sign in to disble this ad
Ok ive set myself a goal.. (not an easy one in my opinion, but i like challenges). Im looking at trying to play maxwell murder but its proving a fair ol challenge. Ive been blitzing through rancids basslines alot lately but i still cant get close to that particular one.

So my question, does anyone have any tips on trying to play that particular song? Or tips to accomodate for his playing style? Or tips in general. And btw i dont want pg tips cheers

Rik

Have you trawled youtube to find soemone play the same song ? I find it helps to give a very general idea of how it should be played. Unfortunatly it is finding a video of someone playing it well that could be a probelm I also think a pick is used however if your anything like me you prbably don't like using them
