Just The Riffs

Resources for Bass players

Here on Just The Riffs you'll find a collection of free, professional quality, interactive Bass Tabs spanning a variety of Artists, Genres and Styles. In the near future I'll be adding in some essays on Theory and Deep Dives into specific Riffs looking at how and why they work.

For more information about me and how you can help support this site and the work, visit the About page or the Donations page.

I hope you'll enjoy using this site and it's resources.

Get searching through the Genres and the Artists to find something you might like. New material will be added as often as possible, real life permitting, so make sure to check back regularly.

Testimonials

"Jack's tabs are second to none. He's made them as easy to read as can be and didn't skip out on any details.

"10/10 would use again."

Saul

Song request: Painkiller by Judas Priest

"I was transcribing the bass line from a song by the 1975 when I encountered some strange frequency information around a set of notes in my DAW.

"I looked to the regular internet sources, but they were largely in conflict with one another and were definitely not helping in resolving the question. JustTheRiffs not only helped resolve the question, but provided me with both 4 & 5 string fretting for the full song."

George

Song request: Robbers by The 1975

"Thank you very much for your help with the Overkill tab, my friend. You've done an excellent job. I'd love to see all the Overkill tabs you have. Greetings and respect."

Song Request: Shades of Grey by Overkill

"Great service, great guy. Tabs were spot on and really helped me out of a musical hole. Quick turn around and he genuinely seems interested in what he is transcribing, even if my request was a bit niche."

Song Request: A Christmas Duel by The Hives
