Here's one song which is almost entirely based on a riff played on the lower strings of the electric. I included the chorus at the end for you to sample too.
Notice that the intro and chorus riffs are picked normally, while the verse requires palm muting - although the same effects and notes are used, the muting changes the sound quite abit. Here are some pictures to guide you along if you're not familiar with palm muting:



Intro/Chorus:
-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------
-2-2-2-4-6---------------------------------2---
-----------4-4-4-6-7--2-2-2-4-6--0-0-0-2h4---4-
Keep repeating the above, and play the following to enter into the verse:
-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------2-
-2-2-2-4-6---------------------------------2-2-
-----------4-4-4-6-7--2-2-2-4-6--0-0-0-2h4---0-
Verse
Same as the above riff, but with palm mutes:
-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------2-
-2-2-2-4-6---------------------------------2-2-
-----------4-4-4-6-7--2-2-2-4-6--0-0-0-2h4---0-
----------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------
-2-2-2-4-6---------------------------------2--
-----------4-4-4-6-7--2-2-2-4-6--0-0-0-2h4----
Prechorus:
G#m F# C#m E
