  • wanna learn slapping the bass:D

  • Fieldy one of my favorite bassists in the 21st century, and one of the best in my opinion!

  • That is one of the most annoying snares i have ever heard. :P

  • I need to get that Munky DVD. I got a seven string guitar for Christmas and I honestly have no fucking clue what I'm doing lol.

  • i love the new korn cd but im realy sad about fieldy not being heard in it :(

  • @ejpollo1 he's heard in the whole cd!! I was amazed too, but jon said all the weird synth bass in all the songs is atually fieldy playing with an effect or something, so yeah you can clearly hear him in the whole album but not in this styile, which is of course the best.

  • R.I.P PAUL GRAY GOTTA GET HIS DVD

  • I love this guy... :)

  • Fieldy is my idol. Fantastic video

  • why i can buy that bass ?

  • @aloshibby order it its a ibanez k5

  • @MrJgmckill Thanks Man !

  • This Christmas I will probably get my self a Bass Guitar, and I am asking if it is real hard to learn, because i never played a guitar, but i so want to learn how to play bass. Thanks.

  • @jamesroot9777 It depends on what you wanna learn. Obviously, the grooves on this video are what make bass really different from guitar. You've gotta learn to tie in with the drummer or whatever else you've got goin' in the rhythm section, that can be difficult for new players. Tons of unique techniques too if you're interested in playing slap. But, as long as you're motivated, then I'm sure it shouldn't be too hard for you to start kickin' out the jams xD

  • Recommend the book, its awesome!

  • He sure likes to talk about gear...whore.

  • KoRn is the BEST FUCKING BAND EVER!!!

  • Reginald "Fieldy" Arvizu - One of the absolute sickest, methodical and talented bassists even still to date, bar none. Whilst it is that many within the already grossly swollen ranks of music have come and gone throughout the years, Fieldy has remained a necessary staple, within the influence arsenal of many, many bassists and in addition to that, despite what he does in fact say with respect to himself in his book "Got the Life..." he is a damn good guy with a big ol' Heart made of pure Gold.

  • Fieldys fuckin dope.

  • can sam rivers get his own bass dvd damn it but fiedly rocks \m/

  • Fiedly doesn't play bass, he spanks it \m/

  • The only thing the bassist from korn has to his playing is the rattling noise which appeals to white trash. If he played the same note throughout the song you wouldn't be able to tell the difference

  • I love Fieldy for one reason. Besides the fact that he has a really good technique and ability, he gives Korn it's distinctive style. You can recognize it's a Korn song just by listening the bass. And you can hear clear and loud every single note he plays. Not too many bands have that atribute.

  • @briands1993 That must be sarcasm... His technique isnt anything special, and you can tell its a KoRn song because the bass sounds like mine when im taking the strings off... You cant tell what note he is playing...

  • I Love You <3

  • Fieldy isn't a good bass player

  • @Fretless19942 no hes a fucking excellent bass player

  • @Fretless19942 Fieldy is the life of the party

  • Better than Rob Trujilo?

  • @Rutrend i prefer him much more hes way more interesting than trujilo

  • How does he get that rattly noise from the bass? i love it but i dont know how he does it.. if you know please tell me

  • @everybodydies9192 Crank your treble and bass on your bass and amps... Scoop the mids completely on the amp as well... Steel strings, active pickups, low action... Just mess around until you're in the ball park.. He has alot of fretbuzz as well so that would probably help achieve that sound as well..

  • slapada basssss

  • WAIT?! Flea was the reason why Fieldy played bass?! AWESOME!!

  • 1:13 isn't that causing earthquakes in L.A.?

  • 1:18 Fieldy you said 5, 7 you play 5,6 hah

  • What song it is?

  • @godo122 Got the life

  • @godo122 got the life

  • Can we call just enjoy the music and stop bitching? Jesus Christ I bet half of you have never touched a bass. Brian was right when we was talking about people who sit by there laptops with a bag of chips alone on saturdays and randomly bitch people out online.

  • Sick.....

  • i tried that...i have no hand now

  • fieldy is SOOO sexyy

  • @lizontopoftheworld you girl right ?

  • @GinTonDrix HE JUST MAKE SLAP AND THAT IS ALL

  • Hahahahaha.... damm your a lazy fat ass now! Give it up FAGGOT!... GO SUCKS SOMETHING!!...fag

  • Idgaf what they say about this bassist. KoRn has some of the sickest grooves I've ever heard. They really amp up the energy at parties I throw so fuck all you damn thumb suckers. With that said, Fieldy, I hope to slap like a beast as you do some day. Keep it real

  • shitty

  • I really don't think this guys knows how to play. Just beats A and B flats. Lucky for him all Korn's music is in the key of "A". Horrible tone as well....it's all 100% bass and 100% treble, no mids to even it out.

  • i can fart a better bass tone!!!

  • @drstickyjuice no you can´t fieldy is a legend

  • @Clicheboards4ever still sucks even if you think hes a legend

  • @drstickyjuice man try to slap like him. btw why youw atch it when you dislike him?

  • @drstickyjuice xD shit?! omg i try to slap like him but it´s so fucking hard

  • @Clicheboards4ever because you suck thats why practise more duh

  • @Clicheboards4ever where else would i post this comment on why i think he sucks.??

  • @drstickyjuice no its a fact that u know less. And ur a twat for that last part of ur sentence : )

  • @MrBuddyisreal my opinion he fucking sucks , freedom of speech get used to it.

  • @drstickyjuice well a famous bass player thinks u suck ur a nobody and will always be nobody.Get used to sucking.I am blocking ur dumb ass and marking ur comments as spam bitch

  • @MrBuddyisreal fieldy knows he sucks, i dont need to tell him, he just likes the money.

  • @drstickyjuice bitch that conversation was a week ago. Shut the fuck up allready

  • @drstickyjuice bitch that conversation was a week ago. Shut the fuck up allready

  • tone sucks sooo bad

  • He have charisma as a god!

  • Why everyone like him? .. he's a bad drummer!!

  • @Nddesh hahahahah man i love you

  • @BeezleBoy backup guitar

  • Ladies, is he or is he not one of the sexiest men in music?

  • @Hateeternal2009

    check claypool for the diffrence

  • What... If you think Flea is an example to follow how the hell do you end up making this sound? Ive never heard Flea make a "ber derp erp urp ffftttttt blleergg" sound on his base, Flea plays notes. The only time Ive ever heard a sound like this is after Ive broken a string on my bass.

  • I saw this at a music store and though "wow, that must be terrible", looks like I was right.

  • R.I.P. Paul Gray

  • What Dean Markley strings do he use?

  • Lol 1:18 he says seventh even its 6 XD

  • @KamiDisturbed LOL ! XD

  • you all have no idea what you're talking about. I hear nothing in this video but ballsacks hitting bass strings..and fieldy acting like he knows what he's talking about. If your serious about bass lessons, hit up someone like Richard Bona.

  • @markley90 Just shut... No one cares about your comment and we WON'T "hit up" someone like Richard Bona...

    FIELDY IS THE SHIT!!!

  • Fuck, I love his sounds!!

  • fieldy and flea are the grestest rock bassist ever

  • I bought Fieldy's book today. I'm only a few pages in but so far I really like it. I highly reccommend it.

  • i justsaw fieldy live and it got me inspired to switch from guitar to bass whats a good setup to start with to play heavy shit

  • lol oky tim and john 5 as well xD woooo

  • To all the helluva bassists talking shit around here: If your shit is so good, and you think fieldy and his slapping sucks, why is he a fucking star loved by millions of people, while you're just a dumbass hating on a youtube video?

    Just think about it for a while. When you realize the reasons, you're invited to shut the fuck up.

  • @ShizzOLG By your logic Justin Bieber is a musical legend.

  • @EdMcStinko Different audiences. Justin Bieber's fame is because of a bunch of stupid pre-teenagers with no brains.

    Korn's audience goes from 15 years old metalhead wannabes, to 20~30 years old people with a wide taste in music.

  • gawd damn hes amazing

  • Just to interject, I'm certain 95% of bands aren'tr big because of ONE member!

    Look At the beatles? The who? also both british!

    Slipknot, Dream theater, Black Sabbath!

    None would make it if it was different YES maybe for example With Ozzy Osbourse infact almost definately Sabbath wouldn't be half as good maybe not even that the true awe from a really good band is the connect between the people. Also getting big takes time, heart, good music/skill and most of all LUCK!

  • @clipzngunz Holy balls that is a crazy price! Guitar Center's sales are crazy!

  • Such a douchebag with no tone, no mids realy OMG !

    Your not a bass player your a kickdrum player, at least Flea knows how to get a good tone !!!

  • @10stringmaster well he may be a 'kickdrum player' but he's a hell of a lot more sucessful 'kickdrum player' than you could ever be

  • @cameronj279 , you got that right, i am a bass player not a kick drum player !

  • i love his style so much i wish i had those insane hair

  • anybody else think Fieldy looks like X-Pac these days lol

  • @shittybullshit lol holy crap he does

  • 2:01

    Guitar(Bass) Hero Superpro ^^

  • Wich amp does he use?

  • Do you realy think that Korn (I love this band realy) is famous because of fieldy???

    Honestly it's more because of J. Davis and most of the guitar duo reef, isn't it?Fieldy have a sound he's got personal vision of playing bass based on the rythm with the drum (like a rap sample)...he said it himself!...excuse me but have you ever listened to another bass player? Incubus Opeth Ben Harper , Richard Bona,watcha gorod(Barby is one of my good friend)...

  • O m god dis is so shit mah bss solo is so much bettr god

  • @Chunkypigeoane69lma0 So why r u not a world renown bass player in one of the best metal bands around, huh ?

  • @KillVision133 i fukin am u jipsy, korn ar shit mate and youe cant see that maks me laugh hahahahahahahahahahaha lmnao ur just a shite yeah? cunt i am better thn your nan and my nans dead yeah>? cunt

  • @Chunkypigeoane69lma0 Really ? Ur a world renown bassist ? Which band are u in ?

  • @KillVision133

    My band 's name is Burden ...we're not a world rnown band ...so what? what the fucking links between giving a point of view as a bass player and beeing famous?...did you listened to one the guy I told you?...did you ever know jean Baudin orn pendule (watcha) no?...

  • @burdenweb When u say I could do better, it means that u should be better thzan fieldy...therfore ur NOT ... and yes i know baudin

  • @Chunkypigeoane69lma0 oh really, if ur as good a bassist as u say u r, POST SOME DAMN COVERS like I did, otherwise you are a failure to society!!!!!!! So shut the fuck up about one of the worlds best bassists other than flea, paul gray, cliff burton, and robert truillo.

  • I didn't say he was a bad bass player because he's not using picks...I just said "where are the notes?" and if YOU were a real musician bass player and/or guitar player as I am...you 'll be able to admite music is not only rythm slapped on a drum kick...unfortunatly I haven't ever seen him playing some hard sweeping notes or something else

  • lol...hum when do you play bass?...where are the notes?...

    To play like him cut your bass tone on your bass put the trble on max also on your bass....than do quiete the same on your amp with a little bit more bass on it and small fuzz...about playing slap the first string quickly with some palm mute on it...some times^^

    if you xant a real bass player check out mister jean baudin

  • Fieldy is one of the reason why I love Korn!!!! His technique is unique... No one can copy or imitate his bass playing skills... :))

  • He is a funKy bassist GO FIELDY!!!!

  • I have this DVD and it's really good. If you have any thought about getting, it do it's very helpful.

  • rip paul grey

  • drums are way too loud and drown out the bass, i can barely hear what Fieldy is doing.

  • QUE BURLA!

  • I fucking love you Fieldy!!!

  • I'm no fan of Korn at all, but Fieldy is still a pretty cool bass player

  • Slap bass is awesome. I wish i could do it but it is going to take sometime to get it down. Who ever says this guy sucks, lets see if you can play slap bass or even bass at all.

  • the riff is from got the life right

  • is the k5 expensive

  • @loosifur

    The cheapest I've seen it for is £685 at gear4music's site

  • he looks like a spastic

  • I have the same shirt He's wearing at 1:04

  • He sucks...

  • @damianregalado the bass is kinda weak on this but if you listen to the cd audio of got the life youll know what its supposed to sound like. pretty sick actually. but thats just my opinion

  • @cenyan13 Thank you for your information... I've listened to Got The Life before thank you. He doesn't do anything complex on the bass is what I'm saying. Sure, he's good at what he does which is slap a few strings with his big fat hands. He's a stinky fucking drunk mexican and Korn is a fucking washout band after Follow The Leader. They'll never ever ever EVER be what they were. They are all a bunch of losers. Thank you :-).

  • @damianregalado hey douchebag, make a video of you doing it PERFECTLY if its so easy. I dont really care about korn but youre making a fool of yourself

  • @damianregalado what are you doing trolling on this video then?

  • @damianregalado try better, fag

  • @Boom3120 Try better at what? What the fuck are you talking about?

  • @damianregalado you said he sucks, so try to play bass better than him ;)

  • ah....fieldy...from funky to chunky he fuckin' gets down with it!

  • He's a really good slap basist.

  • love the color of the bass

  • tuning drop A?

  • @drkmonkey7

    ADGCF

    a normal 5 string is BEADG. but they tune 1 step down

  • flea - shit, fieldy - god of bass

  • @bassdominos Sorry mate but if you think that fieldy in better that flea, you're clearly an idiot. Fieldy doesn't play the same style as flea but still, musically Flea is streaks ahead. Do you even play the bass, I do and I know that Red Hot Chilli Peppers is some of the fastest and intense music you can play. Songs like "Get up and Jump" or "C'mon Girl" have very difficult bass lines that few people can play as well as Flea. Fieldy is a great bassist but just not in the same league as Flea.

  • @russandh well, I agree with you in everything except where you say "fieldy is a great bassist." I think he's ok, but not great. anyway- slap bass is an art. it's just not a matter of pounding on the strings. there has to be some structure and rhythm to it. flea knows how to incorporate slap into the RHCP songs. there is a feel to his playing. fieldy just makes a lot of noise.

  • @keith07712 Couldn't agree more !!

  • @bassdominos flea is shit and fieldy is god. lol.  mark king buries both of them.

  • @keith07712 flea is shit? man you don't know flea man!

  • @Striker439 dude, I never said flea is shit. no way would I say something like that. I was writing in response to someone else who said flea is shit. flea is the man!

  • @keith07712 oh, my mistake man! :D

  • No. he's not. But he is good and he deserves the credit he gets.

  • Here is the deal, if you like Korn and Fieldy thats all well and good , thats your opinion, but when people say Fieldy is the best bass player around, thats when my blood boils. There are so many bassists in the heavy metal genre that wipe the floor with this guy in terms of technique and creativity so please stop the insanity and come to terms that Fieldy is NOT the best bass player around.

  • @bobofmanycolors I agree with this. but keep in mind most of the people who make those comments are not bassists and have never played the instrument, so they don't know what a "real" bassist is. so you have to take what they say with a pinch of salt. they really don't have a clue.

  • his dreads look cool 4 strait hair plus braids  great lesson

  • :23 and so on, "i saw Flea playin', slammin' on his guitar"

  • I have an black ibanez k5 with fieldys name on it!! If you play bass then get one!!! there awsome!!
