Wow, impressive playing. Good pick hand work too. 👏👍

[@mindhead2005]

Thanks Dave. It’s a challenging line, so I appreciate that

[@BuntyDave]

@@mindhead2005 You look very relaxed playing it. I'd have my eyes glued to the fretboard🤣 and also end up blending into the lead guitar halfway through

Fantastic. Brilliant pick work on a very technical line. I think Wayne Braithwaite recorded on this so he may have slapped but that’s a next level cover. Nice one. Love the drum pattern on this tune also.

[@mindhead2005]

@@basstrap3430 thanks so much. I don’t think he slapped as we would normally think of it It’s really hard to tell, especially because there are so many percussive ghost notes which are not sounding out, so I think it’s either pick or that technique Bernard Edwards did on Everybody Dance, where he used his thumb and forefinger as a pick, which would free his thumb up to thump if he wanted. I can’t do that technique anyway, so pick it is for my effort at it. 😂 But even with the bass track isolated it’s hard to tell for sure.
