Mike Starr probably used a 4 string but its easiest to use a 5 string for this one. Make sure you're tuned to 
Eb Standard (A#,D#,G#,C#,F#; if I remember correctly)
Also I think this song is picked.
There are a lot of variations and little improvisations Mike Starr incorporates into this bass line. So 
definitely  mess around with it a bit, and add your own little touches and you should have a pretty solid 
replica of the actual track (note when you are improvising that there are a lot of bends Starr does randomly 
through out the song).
