The Writhing South Bass Tab

THE WRITHING SOUTH: Say Anything

This is probably my all time favorite song to play on bass. Such sexy bass
lines. <3 This is actually a pretty simple song, though.

BREAK-DOWN:
Most people seem to play this routed on 5 on the the A string, but
I think the heavy bass of playing it at 10 on the E string sounds
better. It can be played either way.
