Isolated Synth Bass To Superstition by Stevie Wonder

September 3, 2014 by Paul Wolfe

There are a lot of isolated bass lines that you can hear via YouTube and so on.? But there are a lot of isolated bass lines that are floating around the Interwebz that aren?t on Youtube.

So I?m planning to put up a few ? especially ones that I think will be of interest to ?working? or gigging bass players.? Here?s Stevie Wonder’s great synth bass line to Superstition (and it’s in Eb!):

      I already covered Brick house in my weekly magazine First Bass And Beyond. And yep, it is a cool line!

    Great stuff. Is that sound precision with flat wounds?

      Hey Lorriane

      There are a whole load of tutorials on my site for beginners. Look under ‘OTHER CONTENT’ and check out the ‘VIRTUAL DVD.’ That was the first content I ever made. The production values aren’t particularly great…but there are beginner tutorials and song tutorials too.
