Song: Pretty Litlle Ditty
Artist: Red Hot Chili Peppers
Album: Mother's Milk
Tablature: Bass
Duration: 1:36
Here is the bass line to Pretty Little Ditty By the Red Hot Chili Peppers
from the Mothers Milk album.
I tabbed this myself by studying the CD and the live version on Psychadelic
Sex Funk Live From Heaven. It sounds much better on the video. Johns guitar
work and Fleas walking bass is amazing.
