MUSE - HYSTERIA ABSOLUTION h Hammer On/Pull Off ~ Hold x Mute + Rest / Slides Bass is so distorted and quiet compared to the treble, I can tell there is slight variation from the intro in the verse riff. Sounds like some notes are just held to create a slower/calmer sounding bass line.

This way is easier for me, and should (but might not necessarily) be easier to most considering you don’t have to slide all over the neck of the guitar when the same notes are but one string over.
