Comments on this version of the 'Longview' bass tabComments on this version of the 'Longview' bass tab

acidacid Unknown Date
you got the tab right, but for it to be in tune with the CD i think u have to play each note a semi-tone lower, or one fret lower! (also dont sum1 say maybe my guitar isnt in tune, cos i checked!!) but u got the pattern's right, nice one!
dogtownbassestdogtownbassest Unknown Date
the best tab of this song..but it would sound a little better if u were to drop everything a whole step lower..just a thought and when he does the double note thingie you may want to do this:





g--7-9


d----0


but do the 7 into the 9 fast. it would sound neater and it would be correct to the cd if that is what u are goin by
JvBassManJvBassMan Unknown Date
This tab is correct, but it is played with the strings half-step lower.
antipooantipoo Unknown Date
Your Corrections


this tab kicks ass but its tuned half a step lower
Squire1012Squire1012 Unknown Date
I played with the song on standard tuning and then 1/2 step and the 1/2 step worked better.Other than that,its all right.
FrostythebassistFrostythebassist Unknown Date
yes, like everyone says, it should be played a 1/2 step down. But also on verse 2, it says that you should play this:


G----9-------9----7-6-4-2--


D--------7h9---9--0-0-0-0--


A-7----7------------- ------


E---------------------------





but i think (after listening to the song for a long time) that this should be played for verse 2:


G----9------9h7--6h7--6-------


D-------7h9--------------9--7-


A-7----------------------------


E-------------------------------
codyPcodyP Unknown Date
in your verses it doesnt go A- 5-7 it goes A- 0-7
Oldskoolboardr90Oldskoolboardr90 Unknown Date
Your verse is a little off. It shoud be down lower on the neck and you should tune all your strings down a half step.
TheHumanVibeTechnicianTheHumanVibeTechnician Unknown Date
This tab would be perfect if you down tuned to:


Gb


Db


Ab


Eb


As all songs off of Dookie use this


Other than that - awesome

Great Tab Mike Dirnt Best Bass Player Ever GREEN DAY ROCKS and Mike Dirnt Rocks keep up the good tabs





i know 7 Songs on Bass From Green Day Dookie
Themapleleaf16Themapleleaf16 Unknown Date
the tab is right....if you play with your strings tuned down a half step. If you dont want to tune them down one, just play one fret lower (aka- E7, becomes E6)
godblessblink182godblessblink182 Unknown Date
i know u have already heard this but if u drop it down like 1 string lower it sounds more like it
evildoomevildoom Unknown Date
verse 2 is wrong





it should be


Gb-----9-------9----7-6-4----


Db---------7h9---9--0-----7--


Ab-5h7----7------------------


Eb---------------------------
