Bassically - Geezer Butler
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuning: Standard
In case you were wondering, Bassically is the bass solo played at the beginning of the
NIB by Black Sabbath. This might not be exactly how Geezer plays it on the album, but
never plays his solos the same way twice. Geezer uses wah and distortion on the album,
but it sounds alright without. Also, listen to the song when you're learning to play it for
rhythm. Enjoy.
