[rob23223]

[Rileybutthole]

i love how you get right into it just like geddy!

[GunnyDJ]

You sounded great man, & I just lvoe the tone that a Rickenbacker gives. It's jsut soo unique. Anyways, you did a great job, my ahts off to you.

[fishfan67]

nice work!!! song brings baxk some great memories. my old band won the battle of the bands back in 84 and i'll never forget we killed the crowd with 2112 i ha my 1961 fender precision with ampeg svt 2 cabs 16 10" woofers Geddy was always a favorite as well as steve harris of mine. keep up the great work...

[drzfynest65]

Brilliant work! Hey, if you ever have some time for it, I say you go for the whole song! I love 2112 ^_^

[sabbathbassdude]

rickenbacker!!!!!

[AerosmithTour2005]

YES! Great work

[ForAllOfThis91]

your playing your own version of it because getty lee plays it different by alot.

[KyleCriesCologne]

Geddy. Not Getty.

[fanofthemusic1090]

Sounds pretty good to me...

[kalduramare]

crazy, demential, RUSH is my favorite band, i play bass too, but.......i`m cry...

[kalduramare]

holly shit!! amazing....

[l0rdjimmy]

Nice lookin' bass you got yourself.

[adrian5b]

is Geddy's ricky a 4003 or a 4001?

[wltt7]

4001 i believe

[andy432105]

actually it was a 4001 from 1975-1976, a rickenbacker 4080 in 1977 and from 1978-1982 he used a 4001 and a j bass

(4003 didnt come out till the 80's)

but he owns several rickis he even has a ricki 4000

[apassageto2112]

and he even ownd a rickenbacker 3001 i believe too

[ThaiPorscheGT3]

Sweet shit!

[Guitarmaniac177]

good bass playing

i can play it on guitar

[mRtReMeLo]

I love your playing man. You handle that bass as if it was your own design, just the way Geddy did. Hey do you do requests because I think it would be awsome for you to do Cygnus X-1 from A Farewell to Kings.

[fourten1967]

In my opinion that was a home run. You seemed to lack a little emotion on "barchetta". But not here! You were on top all the way. GREAT!!! PS: please let me know when you plan to be away from home so that I can sneak into your house and play that BEAUTIFUL bass!

[andy432105]

u are great god that is one kick ass bass

[AnubisXII]

Dude. Nailed it.

It's kinda hard to stand still, aint it. That's definately one of those "Everybody jump up and down" songs.

Pretty git-fiddle too.

[SydYYZ]

damn bro, rock it out, im sure your makin some serious bass faces, right?

[deathclock9]

nice. im still tryin to get that song right.

[alpha1shadow]

it would be cool to see yyz on that thing. nice job

[ZOMGItsRobot]

hehe i like seeing the head cut off, it gives the impression that the neck just keeps going... (i like longer basses and more frets =D)

[zero2492]

yea, but you would get some serious fret buzz on the lower end :P I would like to see someone design a bass with 35 frets or something crazy like that. lol maybe not...

[pinkfloydmamo]

Nice RIC...I still like my Gibson SG Bass ... You play very well...check out my VID and my Gibson!

[illwhoopyaheadboi]

mmm that is one tasty ass bass... i'm going to have to learn this song now. Great playing too :)

[rkelley42]

yeah. thnx o and *shectars lol

[nairbfry]

Your playing is brilliant! Love the Ric sound on the tunes and look forward to future videos. Only one suggestion, pull the camera out for a wider angle so you don't cut off your head. I, always feel a little strange watching decapitated bass players! :-)

[fcbv]

Thanks! Would it be better if we played Steinbergers? :-)

[apacolypseday]

@fcbv can this bass play punk glam thrash rock metal and blues or is there a specific genre its best for

[apacolypseday]

@fcbv can this bass play punk glam thrash rock metal and blues or is there a specific genre its best for

[fcbv]

@apacolypseday I think most people would say it is best for rock. I only play rock myself so that is my experience. I believe a bass like the Fender Jazz is more flexible but it's all subjective.

[apacolypseday]

@fcbv oh ok thanks dude

[rkelley42]

nice man. i wanted your bass for so long. especially after i started to listen to rush. then i realized its a little pricy for  a 15 yr old so now im lookin at shectors. ive played a few and they sound great. ne suggestions on what bass to get?

[fcbv]

I'd try a Fender Standard Jazz Bass maybe. The most important thing is to try it out at the store if you can.

[zackjp]

@fcbv yeah get a cheap one first u never know if you wont like it but if your willing to pay close to 1000 dollars then yeah get a fender p bass but i am also 15 and started with a 150$ used bass so i can get better then i will get a better one

[Zeppelin211]

You should try the Geddy Lee signature bass, plays like a dream, the neck is really thin, sometimes it seems thinnger than my epi les paul!

[lordertai]

awsome video... your are a great bassist with a great setup. i should be getting the same ric shortly, even same color >_<. i would love to see temple of syrinx, thats my favorite part of 2112. keep the videos coming they are very helpful at mastering geddy's style.

[trigun908]

Awesome song!This is my favorite song by Rush and you played it so good.You should be in a band or something. :P

[fcbv]

Thanks!
