Malefica Doctrine
- BASS TABS-
Hi Elvenlegions, metalheads and bass colleagues, here is the transcription of the bass line of “Malefica Doctrine”, as I recorded it. It is undoubtedly the most difficult and extreme song of the 2019 Elvenking album “Reader of the Runes – Divination”, having some different techniques involved and being also
physically quite demanding.
It’s also the fastest song ever written by the band! It can be played both with a pick or with fingers, except for a short tapping lick, and please note that as always the tuning should be B-E-A-D (4 strings with the low B and without the high G), or you can
use a standard 5-string bass. Have fun!
