  • how old is this srx?!

    

  • solo was very good

  • very nice ,i liked it

  • watch?v=6PVkqZnDwhE

  • Fuck the haters. Great cover man.

  • Great performance. I agree with ubing9 though. Dig in a little more agressively with the slap and pop.

  • what bass do you have?? Ibanez? tell mee!

  • good! dig a little bit more to it.....i love what you did.....man,,,,

  • Cool

  • thanks for posting sweet video

  • very good

  • DUDE ! Wrong notes ! you must correct that groove with oryginal RHCP

  • where's your cover of this song ? oh you haven't got the balls to upload it ? then STFU PLEASE! he's actually doing a good job!

  • Obviously you know nothing about red hot chilli peppers to say something as stupid as "wrong notes"

  • yes good groove ! play on my cover lol

  • Good cover man! Want to hear it with all the other instruments!!

    Greetings from the Netherlands

  • dumbass nigger flea is the best

  • lol

    I'm white and I don't slap like that... I can understand what you mean though.

    I've seen many people with the most awkward techniques get surprisingly good slap tone though...

  • wow...you really are stupid...

  • good one ! i lowe this beat...

  • Excellent job brother!!!

  • at the beginning I didn't like how you did it but as it went along it was great..good job

  • awesome.. nice.. which base guitar is this??... nice tone!!!

  • It's a cheap ass Ibanez piece of crap from the "Soundgear" collection!

  • nope thats a sound gear bud..good eye

  • Wow nice

  • i like ! ^_^

  • bravo few does the vibrato like you do and that's correct

  • Sounds good and clean, but I think you're missing some of the ghost notes on the slap part.

    Other than that, it helped me to see where on the fretboard you're playing. This song's been giving me hell to learn and perfect lol...

  • nearly perfect :)

  • little less vibrato during the chorus and its PERFECT

  • niiiiice !

  • What type of bass is that ?

  • very nice =)

  • If you practice lik 4 more months, you could be SOOO amazing...

  • its good  but its a double snap man with each octave

    u only do one

  • may be...

  • WOW!! Great job man, and great song

  • fuckin hater cuz he cant play an instrument

  • idk what your watchin this was good

  • is it a Fodera Bass? I love it

  • ibanez srx400

  • thx! ^^ i rated you vid with 5*... i like it

  • @AlvaroBassSide haha ah do u even know what a fodera bass is?

  • no problem, can you post a video so I can learn off of it.

  • no man, the cover is perfect, you dont have to heard destructive critiques.

  • i think his bass is fodera. but im doubting. coz the head looks like ibanez.

  • wow...

    wrong

  • Nice job man. What kind of bass and amp are you playing? I have fender amp/bass and I can't come close to that slap/pluck tone you are getting.

  • good sound and good performance

  • Rap BackGround...KKKK

  • I Love Play Bass!

  • excellent!

  • good job

  • god slap bass never sounded cool to me till flea did it, and now i have to learn how to do it.

  • nice work man

  • Behind the beat often and you should change your strings bud!

  • your a fuckin dickhead

  • dont mind that dick. youre right. his strings are a worn out and i suggest he adjusts the action so he can get a nicer pop.

    but in general good job

  • You play good! Flea owns in bassplaying

    cheers - from a guitarist

  • i have that same bass in maroon!nice job

  • this is false...more tablaturees is rea bad...btw your technick is nice

  • What kind of bass is that?

    Cheers, good cover

  • Thanks, its an Ibanez srx400, just sold it though, i bought a fender jazz bass

  • my dad has a Fender Jazz, i dont think that they're very good, but hey, Ive only been playing bass a couple months

  • Yea they are okay I think ibanez is really good but I like the different tones i can get from the fender plus I love the fender jazz bass design. If I had lots of money I'd have a few different basses but for the price I got for the fender jazz I couldn't turn it down.

  • lol it looks really funny becus at one point ur playin normally but the sound is delayed so it looks like your slappin

    great cover nonetheless

  • baddass cover man

  • tis song sounds grea with just the dums backing it up

    it really draws attention to how great u r

    good work

    i totally love this song especially the slap part

  • Cool song, but I don't get the point of videos like this.

  • then why are you watching them

  • oh i love this song. great job man.

  • gd job on the slap parts man well done im working on this atm got to to be one of there most difficult songs

  • nice, clean and good timing

  • anywhere false 5/3

  • man just like flea, awsome

  • Man, you play really good, well done!!

    PD: The solo part... come on man, you can do it 10 times much better!

    Fuckin' awesome!

  • your a shitcunt the audio is like slower than the video. you know, it happens dumbass dont go talkin your mouth off when you're not right

  • its called the sound and video being out of sync but okay

  • haha what a dick

  • Aside from the fact that this scentedfart douchebag doesnt know that the clip's just out of sync with the sound.... What the hell is an F fret? Dude, there may be an F in a certain fret... but on other strings it WONT be an F so the fret is NOT an "F fret"... Maybe you should pay a little more attention

  • The chorus/verse rhythms seem off. Plus there's a way to play it without moving your hand so much (it's all in the first 5 frets).

    Also, it's easier to pop/slap if your wrist is level with the strings and brought down more. It's a little weird getting used to it, but it saves your hands and makes you better.

    Finally, keep that thumb in the middle of the back of the neck! If you keep it there, your range will increase to 4 notes without having to move your hand.

    Other than that it was great.

  • non se vede che è finto oh

  • Audio is two seconds slower than the video. Awesome, nonetheless.

  • wat bass?

  • grande  maestro

  • Hey, can you put up a cover of Hump De Bump off the chili peppers' last album. i would greatly appreciate it.

  • yeah

  • Sound is faster than the clip

  • Wish I could play that opening....kinda can`t only 20 frets for me XD

  • it only goes to the 19th fret :] you can get it man don't give up haha

  • slapping a bit stiff, but still,,,,....GREAT~

  • dude ur beast

  • nice playing dude!

    bad azz!

  • great job man, I really like it.

  • definately best cover of this song that iv seen on youtube, it would be evn btter playing along to the song but anyway I think you deserve 5 stars instead of 3.5

  • Great playing, but the video is HORRIBLY OUT OF SYNC

  • yeah i noticed that, o well it sounds brilliant tho

  • very good, missin some of the dead notes but hell no one is perfect

  • Year, thats a good move!!

  • very good my friend

  • u sure got teh groove, but teh bass' sound doesn't quite kick ass....i.e. it's a little flat....

    i play this song on a precision bass with teh cheapest strings (have to be fresh though) and a compressor, tuning down mid-level frequencies.... sounds cooler IMHO

    but yeah, i think it's pretty cool what ur doing :D

  • Pretty awesome man, great job! That's one of my top favorite RHCP songs!

  • In my opinion, the best cover of this song on bass on Youtube.

  • Love it!

  • out of all the people who play this song on utube i prefer this vid has sumin to it mayb its the way u pop and slap its like slightly diff but goood

  • good job pal.

    (most of it) nice and precise.

    there ghost notes in the slap part that u miss out though..

  • yay my crappy fender knock off has only 20 and it sucks for slap

    im tryin to get a traben, musicman, or modulus

    any suggestions

  • yea i've played a musicman before definetely sounds great for slap. I dunno they are both cool basses but i guess if i had to choose i would get a modulus. Modulus has such a unique sound

  • try getting a warwick their fucking brilliant for slap

  • yea once i start makin that kinda money i'll invest is something good

  • :D I've posted on like all your videos and theyre all good. I should do some drum covers, but I dont have a camera or mic that can handle the volume input.

  • Does your bass have extra frets or something? i cant seem to reach that high of a note on the E string at the beginning.

  • yea its got 24 frets(more than the average bass) for example a fender p or j bass has 20 frets

  • wow thats awsome! slap is kinda tough : /

  • Reeeeeally sweet!

  • the action comes first, n the sound bout 2 seconds after,

    but nice bass, wt is it???

  • Its an Ibanez SRX400

  • what kind of bass?

  • i actually really like thi svid

  • ta bastante bueno

  • good song , have it for my ringer, good song

  • the audio comes outta sync but you did a really good job

  • You know, you look like flea too :D

  • Pretty sound ur bass has! Of course u play very nice too :)

  • I thought that was a danelectro at first.

    I was dissapointed :(

    nice playing :) need to learn this song.

  • utter legend you are. i hope one day you come to belize and rock the fuck out of my shitty country

  • sexiest man alive, call PEOPLE magazine!

  • dude wth is your bass its like victor wootens ying yang but like 15 grand cheaper and the ying yang is 16 grand just to add

  • its an Ibanez srx400

  • turn up

  • wrong notes but nice

  • good you really had been practices that song.

  • everyone plays dis song different, so i don't know whos's right. but u have fucking amazing interpretation of the song. keep it up that was good.

  • thank you

  • Very clean!! What kind of bass is that?

  • ibanez srx400

  • best sounding bass of all the bassists i've seen on youtube today

  • Damn, that was pretty good. How long have you been playing bass?

  • about 3 years

  • ur good... very :D im learning that song. But if u had a whole band or the original song in background it would be better :P And if the sound and picture was moving in the same time :/

  • yea i kno i agree but thats all i have for now maybe with guitar in the future

  • great man

  • Thanks for the comments

  • ur a god

  • lol awsome variations of the slap line so sweet!

  • sweet mate !

  • This is my favourite RHCP bass line, I loved your vid.

    Do you know Richerd Bona? He's my #1 favourite!

  • no i never heard of him but i looked him up online hes a funk bassist right?

  • uuuuh no, he's jazz. Influenced by jaco, but with african roots. In my oppinion he's the best.

  • Oh cool i kno jaco, stu hamm, victor and all those guys but never heard of the guy you said, but I will def check him out

  • that be rather good, cant help thinking it's a little slow, but at least you're in time with the drums. And is that a modulus i spy? or an ibanez? im unsure...

  • haha i wish it was a modulus, its an ibanez srx400

  • ah ok, i was confused because of the ibanez headstock but the body looked like a modulus... damn i'd love one of those :D sounds nice though

  • yea thats one of the main reasons i got it cuz i wanted a flea look

  • hey i did a cover of the slap riff, plz watch and tell me if u like.

  • not bad kid, one suggestion just try letting the notes ring a bit longer

  • Nice job but i can't stand that drums. They sound terrible.

  • yea i kno its all i had at the time

  • thanks Bonnaroo10klmf

  • wowking if you actually played bass you would know hes playing the right frets to the song. nice job im learning this song myself i love it. excellent work

  • very good

  • Very nice!!!

    Hi!!! I use your video for improvise on guitar!! :)

    A make a vídeo to show!!!

  • this bum aint even rly playing

  • the camera was at 15 frames per second thats why it looks like im not playin. Sound and video are not insync, and if i set it at 30 it would be to big of a file to upload. Otherwise i don't give a shit if u think its someone else

  • not bad

  • kinda made some up didnt really study the exact slap for every line, but thanx for the input

  • Nice bass, great playing too, coulden't hurt if the volume was a little bit louder, love the slap and poppin, keep up the great bassin!

  • Did you just make up the slap line? Because only about 1 out of every 5 slap verses was right, so please know what your playing first, other than that, I give it a 6/10, just keep trying.

  • TBH, I think its better that he didnt just play it note for note exactly the same. Wheres the fun if you play exactly the same as what flea undoubtably improvised in the recorded track. For it to be closer to the song, its better that he improv'd
