The grandmaster of funk bass appears on this buckethead song and brings all
his mad bass effects with him..
The bass doesnt come in until about 0:54
Start there by playing the main riff..

D|-------------------------------------------------------
A|---------6-----6h8-6--6--------------6-----6h8h6---8---
E|-6--8-8-----(6)-----------6--7--8-8----(6)-------8-----
Play that four times and then rest again.. some of all those effects might be
bass, but if they are then i have no clue how to play them.
Come in again at about 2:21 and play the main riff four times again..
Then play this..
