Steely Dan - Jack Of Speed [BASS COVER] - with notation and tabs

More Steely Dan courtesy of Patron Hugo! Thanks man. This one features a really cool bassline out of Walter Becker - only the right notes, nothing fancy, understated, and perfect for the tune. I researched it and I couldn't find anything detailing how he achieved that tone on the album, so I took my best guess with a palm-muting approach. Not my strongest technique on the bass! So it was a good challenge for me, too. Enjoy the chilled funkiness!
