Ya, I hear the problem over the G. Here is a render in my DAW and you can see how the waveform petters out at those times almost to zero. Bass player may be reaching for a smoke on that chord

haha, that's funny..but could be true & it rang a bell with me.. Years ago during my smoking days, that's exactly how it turned out at times. when I played bass, I'd reach for a cigarette or drink with my right hand & instead of plucking the string, I'd hit it hard with my left fingers, & I must admit at times that's exactly like the bass sounded.
