[Woooahs]

[xcharybdis]

God that was funky as fuck, with some class too. Nice job dude. I'm going to learn the song for a wedding I'm playing with my band, and I'm definitely using this as a reference.

[MNMWestside]

and thats one bass ass cover!

[BigOnBass0421]

Ha, you've also helped me learn this.

By the way are you playing out of the RB series of Gallien-Krueger Amps?

Either way nice tone.

I also own an Ibanez SDGR though it's an older model, and it's not as pretty.

Good playing, I'll have to check out your band.

[Contrabando5cordas]

@BigOnBass0421 I so glad to know that my video helped you leanr it somehow. the amp is a GK 400RBIV.

Thank you friend!! Peace

[JimmyEatBass]

The top cab is an ENG? and the lower one is SWR? Which one are you running on? Really love the Gallien-krueger amp. =)

[Contrabando5cordas]

1x10 is a Hartke.

[JimmyEatBass]

@Contrabando5cordas Ah yes now I see it. :) Still a very nice stack.

[Contrabando5cordas]

yeah, that´s great when you want to annoy your neighbors.

hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

[nustysunnybeam]

5-strings bass is not beautiful...  my very personal opinion....

[Contrabando5cordas]

I understand what you said, nowadays I´m much more a 4 string guy.

If you got the motivation you´re saying, you´ll become a good bass player real quick.
