This is a standard tuning (EADG) version for 4-string bass players who don't want to tune down. Some of the notes here, however, should be played an octave lower so a 5-string bass or an octave pedal would be handy.

The Db's at the end of the above should be an octave lower, but as they are is fine. 							           /

This above riff should be played an octave lower (except the last 2 Db's), so an octave pedal could be used to make it sound right.
