My version of Rip it Up - I think it's 100%
correct. Please shower me with abuse if I'm wrong.
h - hammer on
Track starts with Lead Guitar - but part sounds
good on Bass.

E-4---4-----------------------------|
This part is played by lead during the verse
but bass has a variant on the part.

There are two variants -

E---------------------------------------|
last time
G---------------------------------------|
D---------5-6-7--(staccato)-------------|
A-7--7-77-------------------------------|

That should be enough - the rest of the song is similar.
After the last chorus just play repeated Gs (3rd fret,
E string for those bass players who only know tab).
