Auto-scroll
Speed:
1.0x
Bassist: Adam Clayton
Note #1: first off, the entire song is played muted, either palm muted or using a sponge
or something between the bass and the bridge to mute the strings.
Note #2: there's a second bassline that at times plays a counter melody and harmonics
that I left out, since I doubt many people would have 2 bassplayers when per-
forming it live.
