In the bass world there are riffs you always hear in the guitar store. Riffs you’ve heard a thousand times before. Riffs that make you cringe every time you hear them…<\/p>\n

…except when you’re the one actually playing it.<\/p>\n

Below is a video on the top 20 overplayed bass riffs. But when you listen to it as a collection of songs, you realize something. <\/p>\n

It actually makes for a decent set list. Definitely not a perfect set, but from song to song things get changed up in a way that keeps it interesting. The songs chosen for this top 20 go all over the place. Pop, ’60s rock, ’80s rock, ’90s rock, 2000s rock, some metal songs and so on. There is genuine variety.<\/p>\n

The more songs and song styles you know, the more well-rounded of a player you become.<\/p>\n

Here is the video of the songs (it’s under 3 minutes because it’s just the riffs):<\/p>\n
