M.A.S.K. III: Venom Strikes Back (BASS TAB) Composed by Ben Daglish Tabbed by auriplane (crystal@panix.com) There are only a few patterns in this song; sometimes two notes are removed (on the 2 and 4) to make room for the snare. (If you like, you can just play the same patterns without dropping the notes, but I decided to write the tab the way it sounds on the C64.) Five-string bass, standard tuning.
