Does anyone have a link to a transcription (standard notation) of Wooten's 'Amazing Grace'?

Here. I looked it over quickly, it looks pretty accurate.

Thanks. I played through it and found it to be fairly accurate. I would still love to see it in standard notation so if anyone has a link to that it would be great. I am also trying to find the entire arrangement, not just the harmonic sections.

I am working on getting it by ear but this is very difficult. I like to take the easy way and just read things.

If you're interested on Victor Wooten transcriptions, this book will be your best investment. "Amazing Grace" can be found there, of course.

Bass Player magazine also published the transcription from that book when it came out- but I'm not sure which issue or even year, but it was more than a year ago.
