Primus - Golden boy bass tab

Golden Boy

Music by Primus

Tabbed by Eric Browne

Okay, I'm pretty sure this isn't perfect, but it sounds about right.

The main riff is slapped, and I was too lazy to put in which notes are

slapped and which are popped. You should be able to figure that out

anyway. There are alot of variations in the main riff that Les does.

He slaps the open E string sometimes, I think. The Intro/Guitar solo

riff is strummed and I marked notes where he strums down with a V and

notes where he strums up with a ^. When he strums down he rests his

hand on the strings mute them (listen to the song to hear what I'm

talking about.) If I forgot anything, then oops.
