The distortion is on all of the time, but the wah is applied only at certain points. The points are marked with a + when the wah is closed (trebly sound) and a o when the wah is open (normal bass sound). A lot of bended notes are used. My notation is, for example 17b(18)r(17). This means, fret and strike the 17th fret, bend up to the pitch of the 18th fret, then release back to the 17th fret. If there is no 'r(17) then it means to bend up to the 18th fret but don't release back to the original tone. When Tapping technique is used, a "T" above the tapped note is used. At the end of the song, artifical harmonics are produced by tapping. A fret is pressed down, and another fret is tapped. In notation form, the fretted note is written and the tapped fret is in paren's, i.e., 12(19) means hold on 12th fret and tap the 19th fret with a left hand finger. This has to be done quickly and precisely to get the harmonic tone. Practice it--sounds nice. Cliff does some tremelo picking toward the end of the song also. This is denoted by slashes underneath the note that is being tremelo picked. Tremelo picking is done by very quickly picking the note--as fast as you can (as in like 32nd notes). Lastly, the very end of the song has some weird stuff going on. Cliff drags his right-hand nails along the E and A strings from the first fret up the neck, then begins tapping the open D and G strings against the pick-ups in a sixteenth note rhythm pattern. This is how the song ends, and Whiplash comes in. This is a masterpiece bass solo, in my opinion. It's hard to learn, esp. the triplets and different techniques he uses...but once you learn it, it sounds great! Good luck. R.
