Red Hot Chili Peppers Higher ground bass cover

[720moorhsum]

is that a schecter omen 5?

[spiritofsantanabass]

awesome cover man :) keep it up

[06hrhillbilly]

Whats up man, Im a 26yr old drummer and the best advice i can give u is to jam and rock as hard and carefree as possible, It's ok to be a perfectionists at your instrument, it will build your chops better, but to u and all others, remember this, no piece of musical notation is ever played exactly the same twice, it's impossible. Even Great musicians will tell u that, So practice, jam with as many different musicians as u can, and u will build up your rythm and style, trust me it works, Later.

[icedoutlikafrezr]

stevie wonder is a thousand times better

[dijest]

@icedoutlikafrezr stevie wonder and red hot chili peppersare both good

[guillote174]

To the end someone who does not advance the video of the cover to do that it sounds as the song and that it touches it exelent

[bulletdeposit]

minature davidsinrocks! haha, good cover.

[theScytheofGod]

Not bad. Clean technique. You'll be a monster in a few years:)

[jaythatdude]

[2braden4]

I have the same bass as you!!!

[halloleute12]

[mynamesDevon]

[JaredBarbour1234]

@camaro dude everyone I laughing at u lol hahaha

[JaredBarbour1234]

No beat

[FuriousxPigeon336]

I would love to have tabs to the bridge im completely lost on it

[mezap77]

Dean: Good effort. Keep it up. Bassman is right, learn to use all of your fingers now. You'll be glad you did. That bass is almost as big as you are now, by the time your're bigger than it is, you're going to have a trip-hammer for a right hand! GO DEAN!

[TomTheArab]

wen u slap its much easier if you sit you self down its much easier 2 play. you were out of beat all the way sorry pal but nice cover (Y)

[Camaro6310]

@ TomThe Arab. Who the hell are you? you come on here blabbing about how EVERY bassist on youtube is somehow not as good as you. Put up or shut up

[TomTheArab]

Hey wat the hell camaro all im doin is giving him some musical advice so lay off me your fucking bell end

[Camaro6310]

@TomTheArab. Dude it must suck to be you. Everyone who is reading this is laughing at you.

[appg123]

you dont look like you want to play

[meplayvgalot]

lol i know he always looks depressed in his vids. I hope he's not one of those kids forced to play by his dad.

[Deanthebassplayer1]

Haha, im not. I just love playing music a lot, and back then i was a little shy to really get into the music. If that makes any sense. I think i was in 7th grade back then.

[meplayvgalot]

oh lol thank god.

[zanman42]

@Deanthebassplayer1 how are you now?

[zanman42]

@Deanthebassplayer1 how old are you now?

[Deanthebassplayer1]

@zanman42 Im 15 right now.

[punksk8er92]

@Deanthebassplayer1 lol its ok i look like i zone out when i play my guitar in front of crowds and i 18. no biggie. this purtty sweet lol

[zanman42]

@meplayvgalot

[Sucolegui]

bad tone guy

[paraparabangbang]

you're good just a bit off tempo

[mikeeatfood]

niceeeeeeeee cover!

[itachi456789]

Try turning down that gain buddy

[rodrane]

wonder why u use 4 fingers for 3 frets.

[bassman50]

Bass player technique. No sense in stretching that ring finger that whole time if you don't have to.

[Camaro6310]

who gives a shit? just let the kid play

[supafreak620]

nice bass cover it was good, i didn't like the tone alot though

[JokerBhines]

Not bad.. The tempo got way off though.. just work on keeping it steady. Other than that it wasn't bad.

[FunkyJuanxo]

davidsinrocks

[ToguroKun]

yeah everyone is jealous cuz this kid can play so darn good! XD

i admit that he is better than.. better start practicing!! =O

[AKskater12]

this is actually one of the best covers on youtube

[gooleader]

shave your balls ,,you might get iut

[Zomik02]

ok so yea not to be a dick cuz i actually thought this was really good but still

ur timing needs to improve and uhh

you seem WAY to small for that bass no offense and like yea try pulling the bass up a lil bit higher

[bassistXmetal]

i hate u cuz can do slap

[TheMeepersShow]

so thats no reason to hate him

[iamusais]

it' s hard

[pimper92]

sick job dude, im in the process in learning this song, and this sounds kick ass. if u got A NEW BASS THIS WOULD SOUND EVEN BETTER THAN IT ALREADY DOES

[DEFGI]

or just Ernie Ball Slinky's

[MusicBoxInnards]

bien tocado mijo!!! :P

good work!!!

[adeymasey]

i cant believe that there has been so many negative and insulting comments on this video.. he is very young for gods sake guys... stop swearing at him and offer some encouragement...

[vot01]

Keep on working kid. It's not so bad. Listen to the drums, kick and snare. You'll naturally improve.

[Timmy4pawz]

He's slapping technique is bad, but that comes with experience I suppose, keep it up kid

[basilio102]

a little out of tune...

[shenuk]

You watch.... this kid will make it big. Keep it up man!!!!

[kreten512]

Disaster!! FUCKING LOSER!!

[CptChaos88]

guys...stop talking shit about that vid...that kid is still young and kicks ass aven though he's young.

I wish I would have been that good at his age.

peace.

[Avatarofhendrix]

amen

[Tito7510]

God, who gives a shit if he is missing fills. Sounds fine to me you smug bastards.

[coffeyking19]

*runs

[coffeyking19]

Yeah you should realize that you're missing pretty much all the fills

[ieoeeou]

thats pretty good actually

[killdodd]

nice one dood, good playin.

[hippieworld]

it sounds like he's using a guitar amp.

[666rok]

thats wrong... in the real song are so variations

[ThePremiers]

AMAZING KID!!! how old are you man and how long you been playin'? i've been playing for a year and i can only get the slap part

[vineyardedge]

You sooo kick my ass on bass! YAY! You kick a bunch of people's ass on bass and you are still young- that is awesome. Don't get cocky- stay humble and keep practicing!

[TheFirstBassist]

good

[hernandeznathan50]

That was some cool funk playing!

[jrpronk]

It's good but i know a different way to play it and it's much easier

[iRocker79]

really?? what is it? (btw i can play this i just wanna know)

[then00best]

you mean open strings?

[jrpronk]

Nope, it dosent include all the held notes it focuses on the first 5 frets i think its easyer

[axlslashduff1]

dude get a bass amp or turn up the tone

[Chrisdevil123]

This guy is amazing for his age, i really mean it. He's fucking awesome. Keep it up :D

[camthebassplayer]

stop rippin on the kid, he's fuckin insane for his age so stop gettin up him.

[djesined]

wow thats pretty good, I love that song... I love flea

[LaxGoalieTSG]

why are you guys ripping on this kid, he's an animal dude rock on i wish i was as good as you i play for like 2 hours a day, ow my fingers

[bradmac2723]

is it just me or is his D string sound a little off? out of tune, maybe, or maybe the quality of his bass is sub par. but yea.. props bro. you are def ahead of the game trying to play that at your age.

[Phrase]

Awesome playing dude!

If Flea breaks his fingers they should get you to fill in for him!

Check out my drum cover!

[watanazzhole]

ur playing it wrong, i did it by ear and it sounds better

[tj2691]

no he's playing it right

[sk8erkid982]

dude youre like my twin

you look just like me

nice playing too

[HowzLife13]

try bringing ur strap up abit thats how a real bassit plays

[JRocketFingers91]

so whats your definition of a "real" bassist?

[NikkenSponberg]

lol? let the kid play how he wants...

GREAT COWER KID!!

[Ericclapton24000]

Great vid man! You rock! How long have you been playing?

[SporkyPoo]

its a little too aggressive on the slap and pop, try to calm it down a little lol

[XMrPepperX]

Flea wouldn't have calmed it down a little...

[SporkyPoo]

could have just been the poopy sound quality messing with my ears lol

[jfudge099]

poopy............

[SporkyPoo]

ya, am i not allowed to say poopy? lol

[jfudge099]

well no thats not it at all, im just baffled by your word selection haha

[SporkyPoo]

lol, im weird like that :P

[sniperbattle]

a little off

[sitiomaldito]

Dean: I think you have a great future as a bass player... really.

Keep doin' like this!! (and practice a lot)

Cheerz from Argentina!

[frusciante1605]

buen sonido pero amiguito procura afinar mejor el bajo para la prxima vaez......3 estrellas

[tellmebaby820]

OK, but out of tune. How old r u? u look 10. Pretty good. try to work on the little improv tricks that flea throws in, they r what make the song different and cool. 5 out of 10

[boredincorperated]

nah its more than a five its more like an 9 outa ten. the bass just sounds like crap he's a preety good bassist

[andersk92]

very good but ur thumb slap techniques itself isnt a very good one try keeping your thumb paralel when slaping you get way more accurasy! (how ever you spell accurasy)

still sounded awsome though :p

[br00m35]

lighten up mate, the songs called "higher ground" not "lets slit our wrists"

[CODEEmx527]

your stupid as hell

[cheguevara15]

Don't mean to sound like a twat but it's 'you're' not 'your' :-D

[CODEEmx527]

to adress all the thumbs down on my previous comment i was calling br00m35 stupid not the kid in the video

[Gazonkie]

lol

[mistahjoey]

Hahahahaaaaa

[themanwhoplaysbass]

hahaha you're funny :)

[WaffleWaf]

sounds like ur playing elastic bands

[BuDzManson]

good good bro!

[touchthreemc]

yeh dude turn the treble wayyyyy down.

[KawabungaFartingDude]

dude those ibanez basses have an awesome sound if you know how to use that frikin beautiful eq. try to put in less treble, turn the mids all the way down and the bass all the way up. then the slaps will sound really nice! 5/5 for the effort and technique. keep it up!

[ckvintus]

not very impressive

[audiopic]

Ace. You've natural talent. Keep it up.

[partyboy3994]

its an ibanez soundgear

[turtleguy910456686]

Is this an Ibanez btb200?

[Elio257]

no, it looks like an ibanez sr..something, maybe 500

[turtleguy910456686]

Ok thanks.

[sumausa]

ur really good 4 ur age

bt change the tone on ur bass

keep on playin

[perdedor3571]

pretty good but ure missing some pieces. this is more like the steive wonder version. but keep it up lil man!

[k3v1n4t0r]

your playing is great but the bass sounds horrible

[thumbsuckerjoe]

Not really that's a fairly good bass. He just has the treble WAY to high.

[damoltier]

the sound looks terrible

[Rixter619]

How can sound look terrible? :P

[30SecondShow]

you look so serious this is not a serious song just chill out

[cheguevara15]

fantastic job mate! Great playing.

[almyta8]

so f.... good!!

you're awesome!

[chester3795]

nice man, great job.

[Joniblade]

Muyy buenoo pequeño ! jaja

tocas muy bien.

you play very good !

[didoneliza]

e bravo...

[Scooby92]

it sounds like someone played it with metal hands

[CliffBurtonspuppet]

nice job man

[Hssals]

f..... great!!!

[FunkyCow8]

well done mate,yer it werent perfect but gotta give ya credit it was pritty good,as its a quite hard song ;)

[assclownme2003]

hey dude dont listen to the poser duche. ive been playin for 13 years. trust me keep it up. a limiter will help balance the volume differences between slap pickin and finger picking. just get a stomp box. your doing great!

[WaffleWaf]

sounds like ur playing elastic bands, no offence, ur playing good its just the sound Xd

[Scooby92]

dude you are way off

[Sonnythemobster]

why is there no bass sound? lol. it sounds like crap even though he's hitting the right notes n shit

[MunkeyOfDeath]

haha sweet. but why does tha bass have no bass?! lol anyway good job.

[MitchelMcCormick]

you are young, definitely good for being that young.

[bpkiller]

your not playing it right

wrong notes

[bpkiller]

nvm u r playing it correctly

[nelliebellie4u]

ive been playing bass for 6 months and i can play this song, his hair is cute!

lovin that ibanez

[flubbermasters]

ur good but dude work on ur appearance like cut ur hair a little

[TZAR9621]

what

[adims654]

no he can be like the bassist in guitar hero

[Bass365x2]

Azshan if you have people who have 10 years of experience who can hardly play this song they are HORRIBLE bassists... this song is not to hard if you play slap bass, but the only tricky part is it has a pretty fast beat that you need to get use to. On the video audio a little messed up but you did great. 5/5 keep it up!

[VulgarMongoose]

turn down your mids.

[omglucas]

Yeah, turn em down.

Other than that good job, I for one don;t like Slap Bass, but I can tell you do.

[ThrashSnap]

dude im lesus of ur bass skills and ur bass

[Azshan]

its amazing that a kid like you can play this song, i know bassists that have 10 years experience and can barley play this. keep rocking! \m/

[samsaccountyea]

are you fucking serious azshan? this is the first slap n pop song i ever learnt, and that was after 3 months of playing bass :O ive been playing for 4 years now :D

[Cellpwn]

Wow, I was prepared to roll my eyes but I'm really impressed. Great playing, man, keep it up :)

[dufhfud]

same here!

He is really good

i cant even play this after 3 years of playing bass

[pyrodragon1107]

dude u suck on bass play other thing i like 1 year playing bass and i will play these in a few weeks

[BassKindOfGuy]

Well you sound like a newfag retard. Shutup newfag.

[musicmakemehappy]

DAMN!!! you make me want to burn all my guitars, you're too damn good, lol!

[texanpl]

dude ur wicked good

[GTAtrivium76]

that intro is sick!

[Scooby92]

alright

[bully129]

great job. Don't listen to anyone who says anything bad about you. You've got the skills to make it in music.

[vatchkleyden]

fuck!youre great!

[bouv1234]

WOW YOUR GOOD

[deathnight105]

holy crap!!!!

your really good!

[BurgerMac]

u stupid shit, the kid is like fucking 8 and he's playing flea realy fucking good for 8. Keep it up, Dean.

[DruminBobby]

that is very very nice, great job, specally for ur age

[XxBuzzkill77xX]

the second part of the verse is wrong, when you start to go back into the main verse again, you actually walk down to your starting point using every fret on the way down if that made any sense lol.

[grungehead707]

yer a loser,he plays bass better than u!

[AfroPunkprincess]

Wow! You're good!!! <3 Keep it up and you'll be the next Flea!!! ^_^

[Coltsx18x88]

you forgot the bass fills in thebegining. and ur acting like ur playing a show in the 315. calm it down bro but good job for your age

[jensbond93]

you play very good bass for your age

[00Kathy000]

I think he played very well for his age...maybe you are a bit better, but he's much younger so don't call him a loser

[APANERO121]

your bass has too much treble

[z850615]

5 years from now you'd be ready for the NAMM kid.. keep it up!!! practice would make you one of the greats...

[LouMan134]

You got some sick skills kid! Wish I could play that song better :P

[0wnd1zzl3d]

Nice, you rushed a bit though. Otherwise great!

[disturbedfanatic790]

very nice man, how long u been playing? ive been playing for about 2 years now and ur doing great ay! keep it up :P

[HOWDYSOUTHERNERRR]

dudes, hes like 10 cut him some slack he ownes

[joegopher127]

Lower your tone and you would be exact

[mydog2134]

you should put both of your pick ups on

[FlesjesMetWater]

not bad missed a few notes though

[leandrusguitar]

Sos lo mejor buachooooooo!!!

You 're the best bassist in the fucking world!!!

[Vines84]

Stick with it man your potential is amazing, great job. I've been playing seven years and I can only half ass this song.
