This is the Mamma Said bass tab which is off Load album. I play this song with a
pick as I do with every MetallicA song. This tab may not be exactly how it is
played from a book you may buy for Metallica bass tabs. But this is how I play
it. I have a progressive style so have fun!
If you would like to have the sound files which I recorded for this song which is
only bass, please feel free to email me.
If You have any suggestions/changes or coments, please feel free email them on as
well.
Tuning : Standard
This is done in standard tuning, although this album is dropped tuning I decided to
do it in standard so you dont have to mess with tuning down to get the right notes.
Peace out!
