Summary of This Book

Megadeth Bass Anthology is a compilation dedicated to the band's iconic bass lines, with a clear focus: to get you playing Dave Ellefson's parts as close as possible to the recordings. The TAB format (softcover) makes the repertoire accessible whether you are solidifying your rock/metal foundations or pushing your technique on demanding tracks.

Inside, you will find 20 essential tracks spanning multiple eras of Megadeth, featuring heavy grooves, fast runs, section changes, and typical thrash metal accents. The collection allows you to work on pick consistency (or fingerstyle depending on your approach), tempo stability, palm muting, dynamic variations, as well as clean transitions between riffs and verses.

Among the songs are "Symphony Of Destruction," "Peace Sells," "Hangar 18," "Holy Wars...The Punishment Due," "Tornado Of Souls," "Trust," and "Countdown To Extinction." An excellent resource to build a set, enrich your rhythmic vocabulary, and learn to lock your bass with the drums while remaining clear in a metal mix.
