" I had an Alembic for a while, which I was very happy with until it was STOLEN!!"
anyone has a picture of cliff with this bass? i cant find one 
and my best question:
" There's also a little bass solo in Orion, it's right next to a little guitar solo. No one will probably be able to tell that it's bass, but it is.
Q: That's cool. Is it in the first break?
CLIFF: Nah. It's, uh, probably about two-thirds of the way into the song."
what is this solo :?: |

and about the solo: i now know where it is (metallica BB )
it starts at 6:35, sounds very much like guitar, but from the style i could tell its bass, but not before it was pointed out to me
isnt the solo transcribed in bass guitar just the basic interlude?
thanx for replying |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jun 2002 Location: Edinboro, PA | | | Yeah, that bass solo is pretty hidden. I remeber I went for years (even after picking up the bass) clueless it was a bass solo. I just assumed it was one of Kirk Hammets ultra melodic, well composed, soulful yet still metal guitar solos. When I found out it was bass, I nearly **** myself. My respect for Cliff Burton +25 points.
