One of my least favorite AC/DC songs, but an easy one to play!

Audio only, I look so dang bored playing this one in videoā¦ so, Iām not bothering 
I used RipX to separate out the vocal, drum, guitar and bass stems and plopped them into Reaper. Recorded bass through Zoom B1 Four (Ampeg pre-set) through NUX MPP-3 (no effects/amp/ir sims) directly into Reaper. Muted the original bass and rendered it to MP3.
Hereās the final result: 50 Song Challenge - Song 5 - ACDC - Highway to Hell (Cover).mp3 - Google Drive
A couple minor flubs, but I can live with it.

First offā¦ Vimeo is crap. Now that we have that out of the way, itās time to ride the highway! The Highway to Hell!
I recorded about 7 takes with my Squier P bass and got a good one but when listening back I kept hearing the G and the F# on the D string coming out sharp. I checked the bass and sure enough itās in tune when the string is open but sharp when fretted at the 5th fret. It seems I have some setup work to do there!
I switched to the trusty Jino Bass and then forgot to take notes on my settingsā¦ So forgive me on that one! I think we went with the H isolation again but Iām not sure.
Anyways, I hope you enjoy the cover!

As tern mentioned in the other thread, and worth repeating for others here, the original sound is slightly out of tune by about a 1/4 step. I think we also discussed this above a bit. It happens from time to time.

It would be good to add a note on the sheet music, I wonder if @JoshFossgreen can make that happen?

Excellent! Thanks for the fast response Josh!
Hello:-) Here is my take on this, was a bit more to remeber to get all the small changes right. Youtube didnāt work so I had to register with Vimeo, hope it works. Please give me feedback on what I do right or wrong.

You are a bit ahead of the beat, but otherwise played fine.
Try to lay back a bit and find where the bass groove belongs.
Rushing sometimes comes from nerves, but you will lock in as you go and then will never think of it again.
So ā¦ I had to sign up for veed .io for this oneā¦ YT is doing 100% copywrite blocks on this one.
Also the funky 1/4 step down tuning was different. LOL

One Jaco tune is worth the 50 songs on the list.
However, the list is a super great exercise for remembering songs without looking at the notes, (in time). And itāll get you more gigsā¦
