bad bass player

[danielleseman97]

and this is why people should take lessons

[juninho5cordas]

Fuck you

[bassmachine666]

If this was ur first time picking it up I say good job. If u picked it up and were great the first it wouldnt b worth playing because you wouldnt learn as much. I've been playing for almost 8 years now and theres always more to learn :)

[dartoodartoo]

thanks for playing : )

[RedRad1990]

badass player ;)

[bigbosssauce7]

What the

[spadesteve]

Yet another Victor Wooten original going right in the old Ipod.....

[7StringSeven]

If you could let me know where you got the HD potato that you recorded this with, i would have much better christmas!

[HardRock2Day]

i couldn't even hit a note when I started, so you were off to a good start! lol :)

[mostazatanas666]

stay in the kitch....

[sthxdnn1]

i dont see why there are so many dislikes...you guys got what you came for... the title says it pretty specifically...people are realllly retarded with the like/dislike crap

[juanlu1231234]

oh my god i'm coming!

[3234718]

I was just about to say he should try the recorder instead maybe. But this kid should really just concentrate on academics....maybe sports.

[xPsychedelicTRIPx]

i jerk off better than you play!

[jwhiteout]

Yeah, you're not bad. Don't put yourself down before you even get started. And don't pay attention to what ANYONE says. Certain types of people love to shut other people down.

[gtrnum]

define talent?

[nibiru48]

well, you've got to start somewhere, don't you?

Keep going and let's check again in a few years

[Fretless99]

@nibiru48 Damn straight, we all started somewhere. I hope nobody else picks on him: not very nice, considering. It takes guts to pick up an instrument and start playing. Good for you, young man!

Robert

[Badass087]

ive seen worse bassist , including myself lol

[conkerboy700]

He's not that bad.

[xparty]

That's about as good as a bassplayer can get.

[Fabiomarrabio]

@xparty i guess you think that sid vicious was the best...

[xparty]

@Fabiomarrabio you guessed wrong. Have another go..

[Fabiomarrabio]

@xparty Victor Wooten..........a little bit better than this,TRUST ME..

[xparty]

@Fabiomarrabio I have to agree, Vic is pretty damn good, not my cup of tea though, I have to admit.

[guitarkat99]

Under My Thumb?

[PianoPlayingDave69]

@guitarkat99 Haha, I thought that as well

[MORGAN1992FREEM4N]

dude you're actually pretty good for a beginner i mean your intonation wasnt bad, you will only get better

[qtowerx]

was it a song?

[glezzery62]

Why does this kid post this crap on Youtube? It's embarassing.

[OSOPLANET]

He is a good drummer

[Spaziguy76]

I was the same way back in 1994, as teen.

[xdiegolionheartx]

that was actually good, bass is a hard instrument for the size of the frets

[lycanform87]

keep it up man:]

[smashbros287]

We all start somewhere

[panchinayala]

I used to be like like that.... patience and time

[stupifunk]

Kid invest in a metronome and you will be alright.

[ifutureman]

actually this video shows clear signs of rhythm and feel. Don't be so hard on yourself. You had a decent groove going by the end of it.

[emsohail]

practice kid....practice

[Futinger]

At first, i read " Bad Ass Player" lol

[Stayinbeat]

listens and learns from d-storta's bassist..

[redfruit1993]

Miller, Flea, Louis Johnson; they all started somewhere!

[bassman8290]

@redfruit1993 What are you talking about? Flea came out of his mother's womb slappin' a bass and just never put any clothes on.

[MeteoraCyst]

If he's still playing, he'd be pretty damn good

[paul4kd1]

keep going for it - at least you have the bollocks to stand up and show everyone you're learning - :)))))

[TrapnestShinigami]

You don't play THAT horrible.. every musician starts like this

[5jerry1]

He's not astonishing, but what he's playing seems to have a melody. He'll be good one day.

[ikeeln00bz]

hey, better than nickelback already!

[ujuststolemylife]

strong with the dark side, you are ! (clue - "like/dislike"bar)

[Borchesad]

Bravissimo.

[stopwarstartmetal]

hes learning u assholes!

[thepankdalphin]

Hey man, if you've got the drive and some buds you wanna jam with, you're gonna be great in no time.

[xchichix12]

hehe i remember doing something similar to that but yea most ppl here r right he will soon get better :) u wans't born bein able to walk so :) (Y)

[sweetgyy]

he's not so bad

[rahagbab]

Once upon a time there was a little child named derp who wanted to play the bass.

When he first got a bass, he couldn't play 2 notes together, but then he practiced and practiced some more, until he finally got better and better.

And you know what, he never fucking filmed himself sucking out loud.

that child, was me.

[ATY9Productions]

well... at least its not guitar...

[overture13]

he's only a kid, man. in his defence, I hadn't even started playing at all when I was that age. keep practicing!

[CBWarDogVideos]

Just a begginer, doesn't mean he is a bad player

[bullfrog7471]

actually, he isnt really that bad, its just the quality of the video... i cant really hear it over the distortion

[9ooglesuxballs]

Hahahah, 409 people think he's a good bass player

[karraion]

keep it up guy!

[bf2err]

its cause your not hearing the song with it ..-.- its not all bad

[djdel005]

Hey, not bad. Gotta start somewhere!! Keep with it!!

[laxrulztheworld]

Don't let anyone bring u down keep workin at it!

[Xeivous]

dude u were ten, i sucked when i was ten

[rogerthehat]

every 1 has got to start somewhere keep it going

[eDsOnAshtrayHea]

U SUCKS!!!!!!!



[MrAxelTrouble]

Can I get some tabs?

[DUSTYBASS]

Everybody who plays has sounded like that in the beginning. Stick with it... and DON'T let ANYBODY bring you down. Rock on my Bruddah.

[Robloxtiarnan]

If you just put away the bass you would be perfect

[macizo25]

You should be ass fucked.

[Basstard22]

@macizo25 with that bass XD

[cristobalthackeray]

malo kuliao

[Bistouflex666]

Best bass player in the world

[Midnightpitbull2]

well it said BAD bass player. so the title wasnt lying

[xbrendaxlanderx]

niceeeee

[AlexGonher]

Its better than Bieber? Isnt he?

[Fiakosorio]

Nice Bass, bad player!!

[freakystyley4000]

There is promise in the young bloke we see here. Right hand technique needs work, but otherwise he's got the fundamentals of a beginner downpat.

[NJBZX]

Right hand fail.

[armwidsared]

oh shit

[PoPsiChiz]

The bastard and stupid son of cliff burton..

[asagarment]

yeah but the k ids young! u only get better with practice!

[Bullitiboy]

WTF??

[MrFangole]

hey quite bashing , he`s actually doing something and he will get better, unlike most fucks who can only write negative comment

[BassFever74]

left hand looks good as far as technique is concerned

[68django]

Nobody was born knowing how to play. I found tapes of me playing in 1983...I thought I was doing some cool stuff...It's funny now.

[deanzed]

keep at it man, you gotta start somewhere, not many are great right from the start

[Naroon201]

At least he's actually playing an instrument.

[amazingly44]

he looks a bit like Paul Mc Cartney :L

[PhobosAbba]

It wasnt all that bad. Ive heard worse. Hope your still stickin with it.

Just another Bass Player. =))

[Islandlonelythe]

Bad ass playah

[bogey3000]

Don't be hating! All musicians were newbies once too...

[souleater0423]

@bogey3000 ...That excuse have Limits u know.....n plz.... theres no one who actually plays that way on purpose .-. ....right?....RIGHT??

[wtfdelicious]

@bogey3000 Actually i think Victor Wooten was born with a bass in his hands :D

[darkseer100]

he will learn

[fela001]

that was awesoome !!..okay don't get me wrong i was just kidding :)

[cbr2102]

I believe its supposed to read "ass bad"

[Musicman510ee]

Practice. Everyone was new at something at one point.

[Sillyoldfart2]

Don't give up kid. All the shmucks with bad attitude, probably can't spell their own name. I'm 53 and can't play for shit but it doesn't stop me havin' a good time. Just jam with your Dad and you'll come along okay and practice, practice, practice.

[progrockrules]

@Sillyoldfart2 well said that man! Just surfing the 'tube and came upon this - stick with it and you'll be fine. I'm - ahem - early 50's too - I am average at best but I still gig 2 or 3 times a month and enjoy it thoroughly. As SOF says, the 'naysayers' couldn't get a tune out of a radio (should that be ipod nowadays?) let alone spiel there own naym. Attitude over aptitude!

[Sillyoldfart2]

@progrockrules Thanks mate; I just think there's so much negative shit in the world these days..............you know; I'm just over it. There is so much to look forward to and that young bloke will be just fine. Cheers!!!

[addemup]

I was much worse when I started, and my dad was a bass player!

[thegravitykings]

Everybody starts somewhere. I was way worse than that when I started. I hope you 're still at it.

[koaladesforets]

you re so bad......

[mayutzu2010]

give that boy a chance god damn it!:)

[tunamelt76]

At least the kid is trying. I wonder how many people making comments about "bad bass player" have even tried to play anything other than with themselves. Keep it up kid.

[petegrind]

At least he tries to play with his fingers.

[Maxpow33r]

this is bass we are talking about, He can play that in a band and get away with it

[UnknownSect333]

@Maxpow33r It isn't the fact that it's bass, it's the fact that most bands suck now. In Col. Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains, that wouldn't fly.

[xelagnay999]

at least the title was accurate

[97reb]

practice! A lot. there seems to be other musicians about, ergo the drum set. Keep playing the music with em and see what happens.

[DavidMusic21]

you suck

[xCOMMANDERxDRCx]

cool story bro

[chandlerm777]

actually unclespeeder, i have met no one that is better than me at anything

[artmonkid]

Keep at it! you've got a lot potential kid.

[whokeithmoon]

GOOBER CLOSE!! MORE LIKE DICKHEAD!!!

[RevelationWarriors]

When intimating fails, go all out unique. :)

cover-boys know nothing of originality and experimenting anyways

[tehlolercaust]

lol, another case of mommy and daddy buying a kid an instrument he isnt ready for.

[Joshpac1234]

That was totaly crap and fake

[BassLinezzz]

sounds like you are playing rolling stones - under my thumb

[bassgituitar74]

dude it doesn't matter how good bass player you are

sure there are always bass players who are better then me

and i admit i'm not a very good bass player compared to others

but i just love playing da bass and that's most importand i think

[bobindashadows22]

Not that bad compared to some of the other failiures out there....

[peire1]

@bobindashadows22 he's a bass god compared to gene simmons....

[SuicideFixated]

yeah people here are right... all bass players are just bad guitarists ahahhaha

just kiddin xD

[tinnigeimgengill]

He's just pretty good for his age ! Hang in there bro ...

[sweetgyy]

what in the world?

[fudgie686]

I thought it said Bad ass

[coopah1]

Hang in there man. You're really off to a good start. Don't be discouraged by critics. Stay with it and have fun playing.

[NagrusD4Prez]

also looks like you might do well with a fretless

[NagrusD4Prez]

still getting some decent tone.

[PvtParts111]

You do actually have talent if thats your first time playing. Sounds like you knew what notes to play

[prodipe23]

Is frightening that such a video is viewed 85000 times and appreciated just because the guy has "balls". I think the "balls" are made of cotton.

[Boggy182]

everybody starts somewhere :)

[websterx9]

You're not bad for the first time to hold a bass (Y)

[trev3050]

lol i have a vid of me doin the exact same thing... sucking ass but learning and perfecting my shit

[seqament]

53 people has never seen a real bass guitar in their real life :(

[TheJoeGrosso]

It's not ballsy to post a video of you sucking because you just started.. it's lame. I sucked too when I started just like everyone did.. what is exactly the point of posting it though?? Does anyone find this enjoyable?

[WoWintosh]

Why are you holding an American Deluxe P-bass?

[Rayzthakillaa]

He's still better than some of my friends that break my shit!!!

[UberNoob33]

I've been playing bass for 3 years and I've still got a ways to go. Nobody has talent when they first pick up the instrument, but a word of advice, never put it down. Keep practicing. Maybe I'll come to your band's first show ;)

[blopabloahs]

jajajajajaja



[imacomputer101]

even though we all gotta start somewhere, i still think you should suck my dick and then play it as a bass guitar grrrrr wild thing.

[ABunchOfBabyDucks]

Anybody else annoyed with the anchor-less thumb?

[diggaification]

@ABunchOfBabyDucks that bothered the shit out of me

[MuffinTaters]

@ABunchOfBabyDucks Most definitely.

>.>

[bummegood]

I've seen and heard worse players - calling them selves good! Keep going kid. ps, playing bass in bands is cool - guitarists usually break the bands up with their ego's

[drawingdude4711]

bass is fucking boring, get a guitar my friend!

[djlcruze]

@drawingdude4711 Your'e boring, get a life!

[MuffinTaters]

@drawingdude4711 How is Bass boring? >.>

Bass is probably the coolest instrument.

[billy7889]

@MuffinTaters bass and guitar,that's how i roll.

[Bozko13]

every bass player has been there.... just keep playing =)

[4ras2tafar0i]

hes better than me when i started

[starth123]

5555555555+

[asdfghjkl4099]

LOL none of you have the balls to do this. Don't say you picked up a bass for the first time and played like Victor Wooten. We ALL started out this way,

[TrippyScarecrow]

I totally agree with the top comments. We all started somewhere just keep playing and you'll get it man. Don't let the haters get you down.

[ekimusman2]

whatever...he's a beginner. let the kid play!

[darkdarklex]

this is not slap men !

[ScarCode]

I don't agree with the title. He's a novice

[hensjc123]

pleeeaassseee tell me thats not a fender...

[Easyandy100]

Sounds better than when I started!

[Dark2mX]

it is good if one play well without looking at the strings . :)

[gracie1232]

Leave the kid alone - if he enjoys his playing that's all that matters.

For 99.9% of us that's all we get anyway

[thqtom397]

well...almost better than bieber

[Gchord86]

@thqtom397 IT IS!!

[Metaldisciple666999]

I started with a 5-string just for the extra line spacing and at first I sounded like shit, but you'll get better if you keep practicing.

[DavidM4725]

pizza!?!

[brando18guitarplyr]

he must have HUGE Cojones!

[sgparodys]

good for u keep playing
