Bulls On Parade - Rage Against The Machine - Bass Cover

[mrstig94]

awsome job thnx for sharing, just one question how much does this bass guitar cost

[choadin]

turned up all the way + headphones = almost like live.

[SaSuKeUcHiA1]

what pedal do you use?

[mcdonogh13]

Hey is this song easy and would you recommend it for a beginner bass player? And if not what songs would you recommend?

[TiJeylarose]

EBS multidrive?

[LucidSymphony]

OH SHIT, close enough to perfect. good shit



[AmericanDeathHead]

You like passive PUs or active EMGs better for RATM?

[DestynCore]

Why talk about Eminem, wtf?

[owenrocks23]

Brilliant cover :)

[MTM9559]

the E string is tuned down a half step for the bass on the original studio recording. (Eb). that's why you sound off.

[moimasiclat]

sick 

[chewDizzel]

thanx for the help fellow bass player

[Fergasons]

LOLcuz u didn't play the song on your iPod

[XFry333X]

He slaps and pops the intro riff. 

[DiscontinuedSetsOnly]

Great cover

[YOYOJAM1]

awesome.plz look at the vid response

[TheBattleOfEugene]

Cool cover, dude.

[EvenHummROCKS]

Its not peerfect but it sure as hell is above my expectations. Good job.

[DeadbyApril4life]

What's the tuning?

[BassDude50000]

This guy is playing it a half step down (which i think is the easiest.) however most tabs say drop D. i prefer Eb though.

[Lambo962]

not perfect?!?! DUDE THATS AN AMAZING COVER!!! it sounds like you hit every note perfect!!! 100%!!!!!

[ChristianBassist1]

nice stingray

[MTM9559]

timmy c played it on a j bass. it all sounds the same though.

[TwistedGold0]

amazing sound!

what effects do you use?

[nikola799283]

perfect bass cover dude :P keep playin

[MutedFilms]

dude i always wanted an OLP.. very unique sound.. nice cover 5/5

[Thegoldplague]

What are u doing when all of your fingers go and spread out? are you strumming all of them?

[Boredguyoftheages]

nice mate, keep it up =]

[immolation4u]

I still think Rage Against The Machine should have chased Eminem to be there singer after Zach left. Would have been a perfect match.

[darkcheef]

@immolation4u No.... Eminem's voice isn't right, and he isn't as energetic and not as politically charged as Zach.

[sociopathix]

eminem is a talented rapper ill give him that, But he doesnt fuse into the metal funk hiphop mix that rage generates.

[xxxpichuxxx1]

xD muy buen cover

[sinfulbassist88]

nice vid man

[tapehead004]

On the chorus slide from the 5th fret to the 4th on the D string every other time

[ATREYU111222333]

that is a hamer slammer. i had the same one as a starting bass. really good when your learning to slap

[Sleeves04]

or it's an OLP like it says in every other one of his movies.

They're all based off of the stingray anyway

[barisaximaphone]

what kind of bass is that?

[daft581]

OLP stingray

[Kyler2013]

Always liked the OLP.

[MichaelVentura9]

Good job 10/10

[skiddy7797]

great job bro

[AnimeLagge]

Awesome!

Any tabs to share?

[ilikebassnmetal]

i can almost play the song its just the bass solo. Its so frickin hard for me. Tim commerfords lines arent easy shit

[higyhagd]

im learning the Bass solo should be learning it by 2moro probably uploading my cover by Friday

[ChestnutCreeper]

You don't need tabs. You can see him playing. This is a pretty good beginner's song. Take a crack at using your ear to figure some of it, it'll help you a lot in the long run as a player. Train your ear as much as you can.

[puppetmetal]

Now this is fuckin' awesome!!

[bassduderater]

can i have ssome tabs cuz i cant find good ones

[MISKUAMAKO]

You rock bitch! lmL

this is such an amazing and easy song!

* * * * *

[brucemoose4]

how can you be that still when you play

[Rouzekii]

hes a bassist :L

[mrsandman500]

this camera makes this look somewhat older

[Roby511]

the chorus is the best

[Guenton]

Ahh heck yeah!

[Almigurt6]

you have to slap and hammer!

[o00thunderhawk00o]

skillz

[THERENO599]

Give me the tablature please

[MISKUAMAKO]

search at Ultimate guitar, there is the tab he used

[Nielsengotballs]

easist bass song ever

[LateralisUndertow]

but one of the fun to play

[jaedon001]

ur fuckin good i noe how to play it 2 but ur better

[Bancher5]

nice, u should try learning around the world by the chili peppers, great song but pretty difficult.

[killTHEIRidols]

no he should stick to rage stuff...timmy c kicks fuckin fleas arse anyday!!

[Bancher5]

ahaha, yea right! hes good though.

[killTHEIRidols]

he is great..way betta than any fukin sell-out shitty chilli pepper crap

[Bancher5]

r u kidding me. the fuckin rapes almost any other bass player. i guarantee that tiimy c cant play slap like him.

[killTHEIRidols]

in terms of riffs and propa like thumpin funky bass timmy shits all ova that punk flea! anyone can twat at the strings with their thumb like fukin flea and dance around like a prick...doesnt necessarily make a better playa tho...

[Bancher5]

type in flea bass solo and then u will see why this is my opinion.

[killTHEIRidols]

nah i wont bother...i`ve heard a flea solo before...he is a good player, great in fact but i just find timmy c more captivating and subtle...i respect your opinion though

[Bancher5]

thank u very much. thats exactly wat ive been waiting to hear. they are both very technical and experimental bass players. i also respect your opinion. u seem to know wat ur talking about when it comes to music. i like ur passion. thats how i am.

[killTHEIRidols]

no problem..i`m not a guitarist myself (have dabbled in drumming for many years tho) but do know a good player when i hear/see one...or at least would like to think so. and ur right i do know what i`m talking about wiv music as i have a very varied taste. thanks pal, u kno ur stuff too...feel free to add me.

[Bancher5]

nice, im a drummer as well. i will definately add u.

[theboner123]

wtf did u say chilli peppers arent sell outs 4 shit u dumbass i can hardly ever find a shirt of thres anywhere i can find rage i dont hate them i love rage but rhcp arent fucking sell outs u dumb fuck

[killTHEIRidols]

rchp werent bad in the 80`s. come the 90`s the dumb fuks decided to go all commercial n shit...takin themselves mega serious n grabbin as much attention (and cash) as they could. and not to mention all that shit with mike patton and faith no more!! kiedis ripped patton big time and didnt even pay credit!...u took any of this into account u fuckin tool??

[dickheadcocksuck]

You obviously haven't read Scar Tissue...

[Jboogiemusic]

you wouldn't want people wearing your shirts? or making money?

[killTHEIRidols]

course i`d want people wearin ma shirts...and makin money would be good too. but i wouldnt sell out is all am sayin....changin my style, rippin peeps off all just to please the critics and appeal to the masses! fuck that

[LateralisUndertow]

I agree with you but unlike you,I don't like RHCP at all! lol.

[killTHEIRidols]

thanks pal!..but to be honest when i said they werent bad in the 80`s i really meant the pricks were better than they were in the 90`s haha

[Niiickkk68]

[Hayameru]

The tunning for this song is oen half step flat.

i can't tell if he is tuned standard or in Eb.

[McNutz88]

i meant AND revolver.

[McNutz88]

nice job man. Rage bass is fun as hell to play, especially this song a revolver.

[leomirotti]

NICE NICE NICE !

PERFECT TEN ^^

[ManipularSilver909]

Also, to the creator, great video, and great playing. Think I might take a shot at this song(have no video camera though, or no good one). What kind of setup are you using?

[harokun999]

Ok, thanks for teh help guys.

[eminem860]

Eh...,excellent. Just one thing, though.  How long does it take to actually be able to do something like that without mistakes?

[KallitKarma92]

depends on your prior skill level, but pretty long for most RATM songs, but they're fun to play nonetheless lol

[harokun999]

Alright, man great job. I have a question that i'm hoping someone can help me with. I just started playing, and i have a decent Ibanez bass that i like to play, but when i hit certain spots on my fretboard, it makes this annoying "buzzing-like" sound. I'd really appreciate any help someone can give me, thanks :D

[donkeyfieldmouse]

Thats just the strings vibrating. I have the same to. Dont worry about though, on stage your basically the only one that can hear it.

[AlmostAccepted]

well maybe your playing to close to the fretbar. could just be simple fretbuzz

[ManipularSilver909]

The buzz, if you look very closely at some basses, the neck has a curve to it, if it's too weak of a curve ya may hear a buzz when you play really hard. But as donkeyfieldmouse stated, on stage it's no problem. Just google if it's really buggin ya, or bring it to a shop, there's usually a little opening or plastic piece covering an opening at the start, or the end of the neck, you can use a hex wrench or tool of the sort using quarter turns, careful not to break it though.

[ipoophard1]

....u r pretty good

[gamerohan]

awesome dude, one question, what tuning are u in. Standard or Half step down??

[daft581]

Half step down ;)

[mazedmarky]

Hey, good job covering this song. May I ask what kind of Strings you use on your OLP?

Thanks, keep on groovin'

[daft581]

hmmm I don't remember... Ernie Ball Slinky or GHS Boomer 45-100.

[donkeyfieldmouse]

Damn, you can play. Although the song is not the hardest, its fucking fun.

[Riceslayer]

Im amazed! 5/5

[JimRzwk]

Hey dude, got a question. Your doing really good @ bass! I'm playing a lot of RATM too, but you have this 'Ratm-sound' when your playing.

How you do that? Overdrive or distortion or something? Thanks anyway, and keep on rocking!

[daft581]

Hi, thanks for your comment !

There is no distorsion or overdrive in my sound, just a compressor (EBS Multicomp) and strong attack on my strings. :)

[JimRzwk]

Haha okay! Hm, I guess I should just try something out and play a lot so I get the hang of the song ;)

Thanks anyway, and I'm looking forward to new covers from you :D

[daft581]

No, an OLP Stingray.

[Yetireturn]

haha THAT'S MY BASS :D

[ilmiquelino]

a musicaman sub?

[theultimaterocker124]

great job, im tryin to convince my bassist to learn this song, hope hes good as u

[xxsolidsteelxx]

you should do killing in the name

[daft581]

No, there's no slap in this song, just an overdrive.

Slap = Take the power back or Know your enemy (pop during the intro)

[monkE18]

Nice Video!! But in the chorus he slaps the notes. I do like you because i'm just learning to slap but you should try it!

[solidsteel99]

one of the best ive seen

[baZza1337]

wow °_° love it

[donkeyfieldmouse]

Nice, im impressed.

[aimmekay]

nice dude wat effects/amp do u use???

[daft581]

Nothing, direct in my sound card.

[tegnerlunden]

have you a music man man?

[daft581]

No, an OLP, copy of Musicman Stingray.

[TheSixxMan]

That is so cool at :36, strumming the strings along with the guitar. Very good.

[kcriminal009]

sweet...

[moongoddessbeleiver]

good job im learning to play that and wanting to see how other people play it cuz the tabs i got soung off a little. Good job!

[AlionNoob]

hey good job. you helped me out alot on getting that bass solo down
