TSO Wizards in Winter Contest [Bass Winner] + Transcription

Here's my entry! I just found out about this contest a few days ago, and I was rushing to meet the December 15 deadline (and then I found out the deadline had been extended). Anyway, I thought I'd do something a little different with it, so I decided to learn the keyboard part along with the bass part. I always thought tapping was a forte of mine, and I saw no reason not to exploit that here.

I've recorded straight into my sound card, only passing through a little Korg processor along the way. It's all one take, and it's all the first take! I filmed the video with my Canon A620 as I was recording the part, then synced up the video with the audio in Windows MovieMaker.

My instrument is an all-maple Spector Euro 5 Neck-Thru with two EMG DC-40s. Enjoy it! And thanks goes out to the Trans-Siberian Orchestra for all the great music!

Thanks!

Many of you have asked for a transcription of this, so I finally did one.
