Old Schoo Country/Western

[Reigninblood]

I'm wanting to expand my playing. I like that old country western like Buck Owens, Johnny Paycheck etc. I can play metal, punk, funk, but those old country bass scales have me a bit stumped. Something in the scaling is diffrent. Any advice or tab sites for these old songs?

It's pretty simple, not necessarily easy, but mostly root/five with a little pentatonic movement and some passing notes.
