E Riff in Eb, Bass

If you don't know how to read guitar tab (as computer text), this section of a Wikipedia article may help.

We're slightly modifying the second guitar part, to add more breathing room to the bass guitar part we've added. Notice that the bass only plays the open Eb (for now) notes at "1-and" as well as "3-and." We'll propose various modifications and variations to the parts in the near future:

     Eb5   Gb Db Eb5   A5 Ab5
eb|--------------------------|
Bb|--------------------------|
Gb|--------------------3--2--|
Db|--2--2--0--0--2--2--3--2--|
Ab|--2--2--2--X--2--2--1--0--|
Eb|--0--0--3--2--0--0--------|

Gtr. 2

Gb|--9--9-/12\11-9--9-/15\14-|
Db|--X--X--X---X-X--X---X--X-|
