Black Sabbath - Paranoid (Bass Cover)

[artsykilla]

what kind of bass is that?

[Ty5N]

@artsykilla Fender or Squier P

[mystique1721]

question: are you using all 3 of your fingers to pluck with your right hand? So index, middle, and ring?

[Metall4llife]

sick ass bass tone what kind of amp settings did u have?

[Kalalequekunha]

Baixo do Steve Harris do Iron Maiden

[GuitarFreakCroatia]

I ussualy play guitar,but arent you supposed to hold your right hand closer to the pickups,anyways great cover,after i learn guitar a bit more i want to play bass!!!such an awesome instrument ;)

[Warchief01]

Excellent.

[artistoable]

Wow....for how long have you playd the bass? (I have playd the bass for one year now) :)

[username321989]

Very nice cover. Cool sounding bass, good playing technique.

I'd like to add that I find "Paranoid" one of the most difficult songs to cover nicely. Anybody can try, but playing it good requires a lot of practice.

[DoubleATriton]

Your bass is exactly what i want (except for the rosewood neck)

[FrankenP]

@DoubleATriton Cool. If I was looking for a new bass, I'd check out the Fender Blacktop Jazz (2 p pickups, imagine 2 spb-3's)

[Warchief01]

Totally kicked ass. Great job.

[imcarriedinmybasket]

holy hell. that was amazing.

[MroczneKiwi]

Perfect, I wish I play like you :)

[Dethrider6]

You hold the bass just like Geezer, it's amazing!

[Metall4llife]

dude honestly this is the best cover i heard! its so perfect!

[gunnarbenja]

good job man, now i can play perfect this song ;D ty!!!

[nikpap95]

The best cover in YouTube seriously

[MATTWILLNOTDEVIATE]

Hey, Good cover! What bass you using? (:

[espbassist88]

Great cover. Nice bass, and sound.

[zeppelin1996]

Sounds just like Geezer.

[resdsox1]

The next Geezer Butler

[ISRAEL630524]

the most decent cover i've seen here... (:

[Alienpubes]

is that the mexican made one?

[123andrelevy]

GREAT!!!!

you helped me a lot!!!

[sjokboksok]

VERY GOOD!

[thesteveus]

People who search the internet, looking for people playing tunes just so they post the word "fail" are oxygen thieves who should be taken out and shot.

[lmfap79]

0:59 nice lick



[hiperiontotn]

WOW, I am practicing this on bass, seems I still have a long way to go.

very nice interpretation.

[fedegroxo]

kewl bro! keep up the practising! im gonna start the bass ur an inspiration 2 me ;) subbed.

[slate2099]

i like you DC shirt

[poopy1239]

this is great, exact same bass as mine

[76Danny7]

you should post your amazing tabs, we the people would really appreciate it!

[rodrigomaluquinho]

Awesome cover! Rock on' brow

[Profingers13]

hmm i now it with other tabs...

[Zip2461996]

tuned it ''sharp''? Yeah it seems that your cover matches the one of the album version. Can you send me the tuning? Thanks in advance.

[FrankenP]

@Zip2461996 Just tighten your strings just a tad untill it matches the recording. Just a bit; no where close to a half step.

[ejdbk]

@FrankenP

is this an american p bass?

[Zip2461996]

@Zip2461996 I tried it today both ways but it matches in E#A#D#G# tnx

[jordythebassist]

Great cover mate!! And your bass tone is killer too, be proud!!

[BBombers2425]

how long is the neck on your bass? 34''?

[b4wild]

This is spot on, F#@king KILLER. I grew up on Sabbath, and I know this is note for note the way Geezer Butler recorded it. Great job.

[88JudasMAN88]

fail!!!!!!!!! the bass also do the solo!!!!!!!!

[FrankenP]

@88JudasMAN88 I was going to do the solo but I banged your mom instead.

[Nikitaman666]

@FrankenP

Hahahahaha owned!

[FairlessSWE]

@FrankenP Haha you made my day mate, awesome cover!

[iWreXx]

@FrankenP This is the best comeback ever xD

[337camo]

@88JudasMAN88 i think he did pretty damn good.

[thebeastman88]

ur freaking retarded, the bass does not solo. if you listen to the song while tony is soloing geezer is playing the main riff, know ur shit before you get so pissy

[ricochetfuzzy]

@88JudasMAN88 wrong. The signal in the solo is panned left and right, standard overdriven guitar on the left and the signal on the right fed through a ring modulator.

[MrKennyalf]

Is it me or he is holding the bass wrong (look at the left hand)

Great playing though

[AFIROCK100]

Man! Your bass has an Excelent sound!!!

Your style for play Rock 'n' Roll or Heavy Metal is Awesome!!

Congratulations!!

[panterask8r14]

DC AND A BASS FAN???!

HUGG MEE BROTHA!

[jesusraptorninja]

great job tho, but you can just bar the d and g and just hammer on to the 9th on the intro, it makes it much easier.

[PyroGameFreak3D]

Awesome!

[reximan2]

very nice man but can you do me a favor? can you please please tab the part at the end of the first half verse? like in @0:18 ?

[FrankenP]

The pickup is a Duncan Quarter Pound and I think the strings were Blue steels.

[fenderfreakdh]

what pickups and strings do you have i have this same bass and mine sounds like shit

[dago00]

nice playing, same t-shirt as i have 8)

[BassfreakiN]

rly nice octaves

[BassfreakiN]

rly nice octaves

[Dcool53]

pretty good cover man, however, you have missed some notes out in the verses, i think

[balletchicknina]

have you got a tab....?

i know the song but can't find tab for the tapping section.... :/

ta x x

[BassIsMyWeapon1]

your right hand seems very weird to me, but hey- great cover!

[reximan2]

can you tab it out?

[saemikneu]

how did you these one-finger tappings? did you storke the string too? I couldn't see it. well done - it's fast and sharp

[GodCzPl]

you rock

[SaraRocksTheBass]

That was really good!

[superlenny07]

BEST COVER OF THIS SONG

[patian9]

nice color of bass! :D

[mirza680]

what bass is that?

[wewillrockyou1986]

@mirza680 its probably a squier p-bass

[Pedrogomesramalho]

I am thinking buy a squier set bass. I have a amplifire for guitar but i think than I can't turn a Bass in a guitar amplifire, so i need the bass amplifire too :S

I don't know if i should buy jazz or precision! Someone can help me, please?

I like play red hot chilli papers, Metallica, Ozzy osbourne, Iron Maiden, Muse, Pear Jam, bon Jovi, Manowar, Judas Priest, Guns n' roses, ACDC, Kiss, MOTORHEAD, Megadeth, Rammstein...

[cyberpipis]

@Pedrogomesramalho Definetly a Precision Bass, i have a Fender Precision Bass American Standard and it sounds like god with those bands...=)

[neeneeyo]

i like the part when he plays the bass

[turtelyturtleclub]

@neeneeyo nah that part was kinda boring

it got good when he started playing the bass

[neeneeyo]

@turtelyturtleclub ikr!

[TheMoyocolo]

Cool t-shirt xD

[91fazal]

/watch?v=eX_ik2MQeJk

[Kortz120]

nice cover. & haha your playing style is pretty geezer butler-ish

[Sparta729]

Wow, your instrument and not to mention your playing is beautiful! I've always loved the contrast between white and black, especially in odd ways such as in you're bass.

[lolkvadim]

good job, it's good to finally hear someone who got butler's sound right :)

[h4zre]

you took an easy song a schooled it in bass

[uriel1500]

[pxndx112]

[tgodbey101]

[lemmycro]

I dont think that man wearin D&G should cover black sabbath!

[ruaridouglas]

@lemmycro It's a DC top not D & G

[lemmycro]

@ruaridouglas Oh well,I thought it was D&G Sry.Than you are able to cover black sabbath

[MetalMilan]

@lemmycro dumb fuk.

[Ivansson92]

[elPolloDeMuertos]

[keroberos1509]

good job (Y)

[Sublime3898]

nice cover and nice bass

[dmanbaked]

[SuperBassist123]

@dmanbaked If you think that the bass your totally wrong. That is clearly a Fender Precision bass.

[aassyr1111]

bullshit

[RockinBassPlayer3]

At 0:34, it's always nice to see bass players catch those little notes.

[17edwardluver]

nice cover. btw i have the same shirt as u

[LanceMetal]

awesome cover man ive got to work on changing to the chords on time. thumbs up

[z3pp3lin15]

[mrdeersniper]

This is pretty cool

[Airmanbassplayer]

Just one word: Awesome!

[guitardedbassist]

you rock. And you're a fucking awesome bassist. 5 stars

[HoskieDC]

what pickups do you have there?

[The4455]

@HoskieDC It is a duncan pb101 split coil P pickup it is stock in that bass, which is a squier vintage modified bass, $280 U.S. (without tax)

[FrankenP]

@The4455 - The bass is a Mexican Standard with a Duncan Quarter Pounder

[3jose6manuel8]

good work!

[kalorraine]

like my bass but white

[DarkIrishMagician]

nice job but during the verse while hanging on 7 of A, he does a quick 7 and 9 on D and a quick 7 and 9 on G just like in the intro before switching to 5 of A

[Bertziethegreat]

I'd say tune it down half a step, should sound more like the original recording. But that could just be my opinion.

[Imprez532]

great work *-*

[yibu77]

wow, great cover man and like everyone else is saying awsome tecnique it has a great punch to it.

[Norobork]

Nice bass sound dude, like yur technique

[12connection]

nice

[joeltoth2]

i like ur technique

[xxmetallica47xx]

you've got some good teqnique.. idk. i play it in standard and it always sounds fine..

[jambi880]

G string sounds a little bit flat to me.

[dottorseni]

the thumb must keep on the pick up

[ekmad]

Doesn't have to, sometimes I take my thumb off

[Sancijope]

well done dude ;)

[brumbrumbrummmm]

awesome job!

[chavogabriel]

wow loco esta buenisimo me re gusto todo mi vida intete tocarlo y nunca me salio bn sos un genio

[monty321989]

Good playing, nice octaves there, and your bass sounds real cool! Fender Precision, right? :)

[versionintegrale]

nice fingers

[Miscarrya]

good job but somethings is wrong... a couple of notes...

[FrankenP]

@Miscarrya This is my interpretation of what I hear when I listen to the album..... 14 people support this comment ??..... you guys probably follow the guitar during the verse...... that is not correct. Tabs on the net are wrong people... listen to the album. As for my strange right hand..... this is how geezer played the album. Thats how he got that warm tone. This is not how I typically play but I wanted to nail the tone.

[fatoujonny2]

@FrankenP yeah ! you understand that too :P

[coolass15]

@FrankenP its a cover its not supposed to match u dick

its someone own version of a song what are u a perfectionioost go back to wanking with ur strange right hand \m/

[FrankenP]

@coolass15 Your mom never complains when I wank her with my right hand. Seriously dude.... look at the comments that you have left for people. You are a hateful son of a bitch. Where are your videos that display your awesome skills ?

[coolass15]

@FrankenP i dont play so how can i do videos but i am passionate about music i play guitar but i aint amazing so i dont put them up for cunts like u and y u gonna bring mums into is it becuase ur mum dead or she is bout to die or she left u wen u were a lil kid for some strange dude so dont even bother talk to me

[coolass15]

@FrankenP its a cover its not supposed to match u dick

its someone own version of a song what are u a perfectioniost go back to wanking with ur strange right hand \m/

[andrasiboti]

@FrankenP Thats how i pluck! :)

[andrasiboti]

@FrankenP Your tone's epic! \m/

[AFIROCK100]

@Miscarrya where?



[2scrimble9]

@Miscarrya He nailed it perfectly ;p

[ToterAlterMann666]

3 finger technique! Ôô

i can play this cover(the intro at the moment) with a plec but not with fingers.

can you help me with the part 0:52-1:00 i cant play this part.give me a tip please!

[tadytam]

TIP= practice, practice, practice.. and practice. : ) hope it helped.

[ZombieZzFTW]

@ToterAlterMann666 if you cant alternate with your index and middle finger try to use ur thumb and Middlle finger thats what i do or try using ur thumb and ur middle pinky and ring finger like u shuld for the chorus that always works for me no matter what song i play

[ForceBass]

Wow i have real trubble with this song... it looks so easy when you do it

[Zukatsr125]

just practices ! It goes pretty fast. But I will learn the intro  =D

[MrBolsones]

my gets blocked all the time fuck! got any tips?

[TheCoolestManchu]

the only part I have trouble with is :51 - 1:00. It's hard to keep up with my right fingers

[andrasiboti]

that part is awesome! :D

[algiers1962]

well played

[Degernildo]

[MrOzzyIommi]

your bassline is wrong, sorry

[Irishkill]

woah im speechless your amazing

[pressar]

very good cover.you seem to know how important the left hand position is. nice sound \M/

[sexxxodrogasyrnr]

Awersome men!!! you are a great bass player!!!!

[kopend100]

i like it man play this alot myself and i take it this is your interpretation of the song as their are a few fills in there that are not in the song and i do love your version but this song sounds so much better when played with a pleck, other then that great work dude

[Bananaspliff27]

where can i find a bass like that? i mean ofcourse i can go and ask in a shop for a fender presicion standart, but i mean a bass like thisone. white corpus and black scratchboard?
