Скачать или смотреть Bass line for Led Zeppelin's "The Lemon Song"

Hi again.

Now I just wanted to give my "new" Peavey T-40 the chance to appear on YouTube with this classic and terrific bassline, courtesy of Mr. John Paul Jones. My playing isn't that terrific, but anyway I transcribed that line in its entirety and I can guarantee that, putting motor mistakes aside, the notes are 99% accurate (Well, I made some cool additions IMO at the very beginning and at the very end).

So I hope this video will be a good aid for those interested in playing this tune. There are two aspects in my playing that I tried to emphasize and they are present and prominent (on purpose) in 90% of this performance: The "one finger per fret" technique and NOT looking at the fingerboard. To me, these are two very important skills that any player should work on, and may this be the opportunity to encourage all fellow bass players to use these tools if you haven't done it before.

Since the Peavey T-40 is such a versatile bass, here are the settings I used for this recording: Both pickups on, with full volume and "in phase", neck pickup's tone at 10 (for single coil mode) and bridge pickup's tone at 7 (for humbucker mode). As usual, I recorded my bass' direct output from my practice amp to my PC sound card and replaced my camera's live audio track with the resulting wav file after recording the line signal.

Thanks for watching! Hope you find this definitely improvable effort useful. :)
