Beach Baby


I play the bass and I tabbed this out on the eight string bass. So you may need to adjust for minors, sevenths and all that other stuff that I don't need to worry about. Actually, this one will probably sound AWESOME once you get those adjusted notes in ther. It actually sounds pretty serviceable already, if I do say so myself.
