Hey man nice cover! Can you just put bass strings on a normal guitar? I wanna try it on my old strat but if i just fk up strings and waste money i wont. some tips would be helpfull! thnx ;)
but mark recorded it with an acoustic bass with a capo on second fret and he played it 077 066 044 066, so you are playing it right you just need a capo is all
Sounded good man i think its cool how you did that lol but man do you have a Capo because pepsi smash Mark has a Capo on his Guitar/with bass string lol its for the 2 hammer to 7 and so on in the intro yours sounds fine withought it but the way i see it if your gonna string a bass string into your guitar to try and sound like that you might as well throw a capo on to lol Nice cover by the way man
keep in mind that simple is good. In addition, the bassist is singing, and some people find it difficult to play and sing at the same time. Notice when he's not singing in the verses, the bass lines change into something a tad more complex. Other than that, if you think blink 182 sucks, why are you watching one of their videos?
dude i dont even care if its a bass or guitar bro...that was fuckin awesome..you nailed it perfect..do you have the right tabs to this, or like where to find them..or did you this by listening to it?
lets settle this and stop talking about what you dont know its a BASS. you think its a guitar because it has 6 strings. a bass has the same notes of a guitar with those two high strings e and b this has those two and is one octave higher, or one octave lower than a regular guitar. making it a high octave 6 stringed bass.
Haha as is you can play the whole song on one string! I guess this was more creative than using a Whammy pedal to drop your guitar down to bass notes... which you couldve done. :P
i bet it destroyed the neck though lol... theres a reason the bass VI is a 30 inch scale to take those chunky strings (im sure its fine im only joking)
wow!!! himynameiscolin must be cool because he curses alot! That would make any fool be awesome instantly im gonna try cursing alot tommorrow in school so ppl will like me!
first off im like an 85 average student (i know thats not great but it isnt failing) second school is just ending, when i posted that i still had 2 more days or school left and now a week of finals since im in high school. Your probably in like 4th so u wouldnt know anything about finals and can u type anything with out cursing. Cursing doesnt make u cool.
do we go to the same school? No. Do all high school get out on the same date? No. Yes School ended for me, but i have final for the next week and a half there fore im still in school.
i didnt say it was made custom for mark ass face get it straight you homosexual and fucking look up the fender bass VI on wikipedia it'll tell you what im trying to say
i didnt say you said it was custom for mark, then you got all upset and started insulting me on the net, nice one. if you look at my quote i even see fender bass vi, i know what one is, ive played one, and if what do you mean 'it'll tell you what im trying to say' cant speak for yourself?
yes you fucknig did you fucking faggot shut the fuck up you bitchass even look on page fucking 2 and eat your fucking words you dick sucking mother fucker
lol dude, check you getting all stressed out over a bass guitar.
chill man, im just saying it isnt a custom amde 6 string bass, its a guitar that is widely available, fender released it, nothng custom about it, just a bass guitar they made and sold.
lol. on that video hes watching, mark put base strings onto a guitar to get that sound. that kid did the same. Mark isnt using a fukn guitar!! look carefully
you guys are all fucking stupid. read the goddam description. he put a goddam bass string on a goddam guitar to get the goddam sound mark has with his fender bass(its not a goddam guitar its a guitar-sized goddam bass)jusus christ
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
wow this kids a fag, first of hes playing a bass line on guitar and the guitar only has one fucking string, get a gad damn bass you bitch, but the plus 44 stickers good
wooow perfect guitar cover!!! i mean bass...i mean guitar...i mean bass...whatever...heh heh jk ;O) tho really you're playing great man, whatever music equipment it is:D
Dinosaurman01's right. Just detune it with thicker gauge guitar strings. That's how fender recommended doing it, bass strings also might put to much pressure on the tremelo system.
I think thats why he used his crappy strat copy, and also i guess you haven't heard of PUSA which put 3 bass or close to bass gauge strings on their guitars.
no they are more of a rock band, but putting the heavier strings on helps with the low end of there sound because they dont have a bassist, but they do use, Guitbass and Basitar, look them and Presidents of the United States of America up on Wikipedia, i really recommend them.
Obviously there are some people here who do not understand the perpose of the video...It's about the Fender VI sound!!! and btw...simple songs can be fun to play too!!!
Is that a... Broken string? Bro... That takes balls
