I have to learn the begining bass solo by nov 3. Could someone help me out please?! i know the rest of the song, however the solo is baffling me...
If someone could help me out a little bit, maybe even tell what key its in or something. I would really appreciate it. Thanks guys.

Wow, it's been 15 years since I've play that one. the solos pretty easy once you get the hang of it.

Thats not the tab im looking for, thank you though. Watch the video, i want the tabs for the solo he plays, the entire thing. Like i said, could someone even help me know what key it is in?!

jaaboy - Cliff is purely screwing around with his fuzz wah sounds. Doing ANYTHING similar will work just fine. The actual solo he played is embedded in his crazy intro solo.

Check this list to find out how to play all of Metallica's songs on bass. These are great books.

Are you trying to learn the intro or the actual solo? The intro is deceptively simple....just sit get the tab, start slow and you'll have it in no time....as for the solo.....yea um good luck with that....I've never seen anyone play any solo (bass, drums, guitar whatever) exactly the way it's "supposed to be played" when doing a cover. That's the fun of a solo is putting your own personal stamp on it to make it your own.
