Scars - Your Attention Please! - (ID Flexi - Disc) 1980 - Bass Cover

Personal Transcription of the LIVE bassline, Yes! the LIVE bassline including all the riffs, ad-libs and nuances during the jam at the end (starting at 3:21) of the song as played* by bassist John Mackie with the Scottish post-Punk band Scars from their (ID Flexi-Disc) 1980.
*I'm not brilliant playing bass with a pick, so, in this bass cover video from about 3:40, although I transcribed double eighth notes (AA GG FF EE) etcetera, I chose to play straight quarter notes.
What is tricky during the 'jam' is a surprise measure of 3/4 leading to the quarter notes: A - A- A - G, and then after two measures of 4/4 there is a measure of 6/4: G - G - G - G - G - G. Got it??
*****Tuning band at end of video!!!
For this video a four (4) page transcription in standard notation is being sight-read to be faithful to the original recording;-) I used Transcribe + Finale v. 27 to make this transcription starting today.

Bass is a vintage Rickenbacker 4003 Jetglo bass manufactured in February 2018 with its original pickups. My strings are Rickenbacker Roundwound strings (45-105) on this bass in order to bring out the bright tone of this vintage RIC. The bridge pickup is covered up with a custom made stainless steel cover to 'cover up' the hole surrounding the bridge pickup, my design, and this is to look nice.
Rickenbacker Neck pickup 10, Bridge pickup 10, and Tone switch 10 and VINTAGE tone selected.
The pick is a vintage HERCO Heavy gauge nylon gray pick that I bought new in 1972.
Marshall B25 MK II amplifier settings - Bass 5 o'clock, Mid 3/4 o'clock, Treble 5 o'clock

I do not own any of this music. I just play along to show other bassists how this tune is played.
