      Timothy Harris Nice to see Andriy will take care of that, anyway I'd like to remind you guys that he played that bit in a vid comprising most typical Cliff's, Jason's and Robert's live bass solos, cool to see he's gonna make tabs for that particular DOTG gig so all the 4-string dudes out there can learn it properly! :D
      Damn, I remember the first time I saw that tiny solo before Bellz, I thought 'WTF has he just done, like where the heck did he take that from man, was he human or something?' haha. Thinking of it now, it reminds me so much of Bach's Toccata and Fugue, a songwriter he absolutely loved.

    Note (to avoid silly comments). I played on 4-string bass, but tabs are for 5-string because of a couple of riffs (downtuned to B in the piece of video). Just don't pay attention to lower string for 4-string tabs! Enjoy playing \m/

    Hey Andriy, I’m 15 and have just started to play bass 6months ago because of you! I saw your For whom the bell tolls cover and I said to myself: Never! I will never be able to play this and it has now been 4months that i can play this song and many of your your covered songs. After i bought my bass i didn’t have no money at all.. because I’m 15;) but I’m telling you, as soon as i start working I’ll suport you on your patron because it just sounds amazing and i think you deserve so much more than you get out of youtube right now. So with that said good luck to your channel and keep doing these awesome tutorials

    The Shortest Straw Base Riff please Andriy. I tell you man, that was spectacular. I'm currently playing Base Guitar, and let's just say you give me tons of inspiration.

      I think there was bass but lousy production made it impossible to hear

      Your Friendly Neighbourhood Bin Yes, there is a bass but it got lost in the mixing process. You can barely "hear" it lol

    honestly i had never heard 1-8 till today, although Robert T is the man on bass his era in Metallica history is not so interesting. Jason N...was medicore. Ride the Lightning and Master of Puppets... where the bass was in your face and unapologetic about it were the best albums, Kill em All comes in 3rd but far behind those two. Cliff Burton set a standard in Metal bass that hasnt been met to this day. R.I.P.
