playing reggae

[staas]

i thought there should be a topic where people can put tabs, discuss gear and things of that nature, so i'm making one

sadly i don't really have anything to post

as a request does any have tabs of the satta massagana chorus for sax,trumpet or trombone?

[I-Lion Tafari]

dont have tabs but a les paul standard and a fender vibrolux reverb + jim dunlop cry wah + boss gt 6 + charvel jackson strat + monster cables + huhges & kettner amp + some sticky fingers.

I play by ear. Never used tabs. Not really a gear head though some things are worth discussion such as amps, effects etc.
Also I didn't get much response when I made a post a few months ago about gtrs, basses, amps etc.
I hope you have better luck!

Riff 1:
-------------------------
-------------------------
-------------------------
-5-5-5-5-----5-5-5-5-----

Riff 2:
-------------------------
-------------------------
---5-5-5-------5-5-5-----
-5-----------5-----------

Riff 3:
-------------------------
-------------------------
-7-----------------------
---5-5-5-----5-5-5-5-----

Riff 2 (again)

Riff 3 (again)

Riff 2 (again)

Then:

Riff 4:
-------------------------
-------------------------
-7-----------7-----------
---5-5-5-------5-5-5-----

Riff 5:
-------------------------
-------------------------
---7-7-7-----7-----------
-7-------------5-5-5-----

Then repeat this pattern throughout the song.

Very easy and simple reggae bassline, but it sounds hypnotic when played
with a band.
