Is this right? ( pulling teeth)

[peaveyuser]

I'm having trouble at one part in the pulling teeth bass solo. I using tab to learn it because of the amount of distortion used doesn't make it easy for me to learn it by ear. The problem I'm having is at one point the tab doesn't seem right it's the part between 2:42- 2:46 could someone please give me a good tab for this part? Here's the tab I'm using.

16-----12--16-----12--16-----12-
----------------------------------

-16-----12--16-----16----16p12----12-16p12----12-16p12-12-12-12-12--14--(14)
--------------------------------14-----------14----------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

b(16)r(14)--12------12b(13)r(12)----
----------------14----------------14

Sometimes when I cant figure something out or something doesnt sounbd right, I go to youtube and watch people play the song and see if they do it the same way. Look for ones with a close shot of the fretboard.

Ya that's what i did but believe it or not not many good videos doing this part. I even pm'ed a guy who played well asking him about this one part and he didn't answer.

I've got the Kill 'Em All bass book and according to that, the tab you are using is correct.

that tab is correct.

hows fast can you play it? cliff plays it pretty fast once the pull-offs come in so it may sound weird when playing it at a slower tempo.

K didn't want to start a new thread so just bumping this. Now I found another part that doesn't seem to make sense as it sounds like less notes are played on the recording than on the tab, when I play it it seems like too many movements for such little time I'm maybe a 1/2 second-second off, now is it just Cliffs distortion that's making it sound like this which makes mine (I'm playing clean) sound a bit weirder or do you think it could very well be the tab even though it's from the book kinda.

KK got that right (a while ago in fact) now new problem!

This seems to make very little sense, this is between 3:05 & ??? I don't know where the bolded notes come from
