[zuperpaintmanxl]

Where did BH learn to play bass and Banjo?

[t3llularman]

This right here is the definiton of a virtuoso.

[Usuario7849]

[asdf852asdf]

its so porn

[MajinWamu]

His childhood teacher was originally a bassist. Max McGuire. He was also my teacher too. :)

[GuyMcSmiley]

KFC bucket. Good at bass. Draw your own conclusion.

[guitarherosmaka]

@GuyMcSmiley this is the funniest thing ive ever heard

[astroboirap]

@GuyMcSmiley niggers like chicken and bass?

[superpuntar]

whoo needs Claypool .. :)

[TheClcngjc]

what a fuck wit, I cant cunts who use effects like that dum freak.

[Crazytrain3592]

@TheClcngjc thats cool. i hate cunts with bad grammar. I'm thinking your the "fuck wit"

[LargeChief]

@Crazytrain3592 that's* you're*

[SpaldyGee]

@TheClcngjc I hate cunts that cannot spell correctly, learn some grammar and the correct use of profanity before sharing us your inferior opinion.

[TheClcngjc]

@SpaldyGee great come back fool, or should i say CUM on your back, there is nothing wrong with my spelling i left out a word. that word was 'STAND' I can't

:'' STAND gay fucks like you, and i can't STAND that masked freak. his name should be shit head, and yours should be shit for brains....

[soundofmusic94]

Hard and core porny

[THEFINSOADFAN]

i have to know what is that effect :D I fucking want it :D

[theultimatexperience]

@THEFINSOADFAN you can duplicate that sound with a Boss SYB-5 Bass Synth pedal.

[GalaticSpaceHero]

he has the hands for being Great Guatar player , look at his fingers , i have think hands .

[railcar123]

Buckethead is awesome!

[Demeterix]

Wow sick but I got a question what is that stuff he wears in his thumb and fingers. Seen some bass players who also wear that what is it?

[squiresuzuki]

@Demeterix He's not wearing anything, it's just his thumb flopping around really fast. It's called bass slap and it's a common style of playing.

Sometimes people put electrical tape on their thumb so that they don't bleed.

[PuffSmelly]

this took claypool 16 years took buckethead 10 minutes

[czurmuhl]

I just got ear raped

[OptimisticNihilistic]

The funk is strong in this one...surprisingly strong for a predominantly metal guitarist...

Is it weird to say that a guitarist is one of the best bassists in the world?

[TheArtOfPanik]

@OptimisticNihilistic Of course it's weird, because he's obviously NOT one of the best bassists in the world.

[OptimisticNihilistic]

@TheArtOfPanik Well he's obviously no Victor Wooten (the two are incomparable due to the genre gap), but is he better than Les Claypool? Geddy Lee? Flea? I honestly haven't seen enough videos of him playing bass to make a certain conclusion, but he's up there with them.

[jsr98706]

tabs please?

[luixmedia]

Holy shit!!

[kober777]

EASY!!!!

[Proxima1310]

Not only can Buckethead play every guitar amazingly well, swing nun chucks with precision but he can also make Sex sounds with his bass...

[Ariel62073]

Take that fucking bullshit off your head, motherfucker. Take the bullshit off your fucking head already.

[TheCreepsAreAlright]

Narration of Buckethead as a grandfather:

Buckethead: "Gimme dat bass boi!"

[dsm92eclipsegsx13]

@ultimateskater56 Don't you have to pay for that?

[MrFrothinger]

Wow. He even manages to make the bass sound boring.

[PGspeed88]

@MrFrothinger

Wow, you still manage to troll on the greatest musician ever.

Leave and go back under your bridge now.

[MrFrothinger]

@PGspeed88 - everyone's entitled to an opinion, man. Here's one that may surprise you;

"nice sweeps on your gone too far cover".

If you need me, I'll be under the bridge.

[PGspeed88]

@MrFrothinger

Simply for saying that, whether you're serious or not, I'll say thank you and apologize from earlier.

I still disagree with your first comment, but I suppose agreeing to disagree seems to be the best option here.

[AHUtch81]

This is the exact same sound that has been coming out of my mom and dads bedroom every saturday night for years...now it finally all makes sense...

[GasserVsGoodyball]

@AHUtch81 *gasp* ....you mean...you mean ...you mean your parents listen to Buckethead?!?! 0_0 (lol im kidding)

[PloXskate]

@AHUtch81 your dad is mr buckethead??O.O

[TheKnowlseyy]

@AHUtch81 your mum was bucketing your dads head?



[BigFriendlyNinja]

@AHUtch81 that bucket is in your parents room every saturday? O_o

[Holdington]

@AHUtch81 I hope it's slowed down a bit though, for their sakes.

[megaman874]

@AHUtch81 you mean your parents play bass? or is that ur dad slaps the shit out of ur mother every saturday night?

[123elvisman]

@AHUtch81 bass pounding- 1.the rammage of a vagina beacuse of epic bass line that cause a man to get horny and fuck to bowwww bow bomalpapppoooppppwwwwww .2. agresive sex

[guate15metal]

0:35 "seriously? where I left my guitar?"

[TheSkateNJ]

I suppose he picked up a few tips from Claypool and Bootsy?

[bigbearinacan]

rockin playin

[ultimethalofreek]

buckethead still sounds good on your gay camera

[angelpans]

we know that at least 85 people in the world are deficients

[tigerkidtre]

BH never fails at awesome

[Cheoz0r]

he make it looks easy!!!

[Rizilo]

That slap technique is very over played.. Just dead notes following a bass note follow a pop. Just sayin'..

[treetrunkss940]

@Rizilo ....hater

[Rizilo]

@treetrunkss940 It literally becomes just for show. Throw some soul into it. Sure the technique is fun, but it's too repetitive.

[maldaathi]

@Rizilo ummm....go away

[StopRunningKid]

@Rizilo D --> Isn't that all slap bass? Even Victor has agreed that slap bass is like 85% more about keeping the beat.

[Rizilo]

@StopRunningKid No. There's more than just sixteenth notes and a couple fills to slap bass. I probably just don't like this because I can't really feel a groove. He's soloing without keeping the groove.

[gmangsxr750]

Buckethead wanted to take a break so Les Claypool but the bucket and a wig on his head and came out for a few....

[VolionOfficial]

There are a lot of people which are a guitarist and playing another instruments... But there is only 1 man, who can play a lot of instruments like a professional, not only a guitar... :D

[Alembic77Series1]

o-kay-y-y-y-y



[ShazammelCamel]

Buckethead is one of the most talented people on the freakin' planet!

[steven099]

His fingers are too fast for my eyes! *o*

[jesushchris69]

hahaha...Buckethead! Take off the bucket man!!!

[imelton89]

its les claypool with the buckethead bucket on dumb ass

[DJSkinnyHo]

@imelton89 You're an idiot. Les Claypool was AT this show. Buckethead borrowed HIS bass to play this song.

[TheRealErnestogod]

God of the guitar.

God of the Nun-chucks.

God of the Robot Dance.

God of the Gifts.

AND NOW GOD OF THE BASS...

Buckethead should create a new religion... |m|

[rod3067]

@TheRealErnestogod nah, religions are not worth of buckethead, he needs his own planet!!

[TheRealErnestogod]

@rod3067 fuck yea!

[Rizilo]

@TheRealErnestogod Nope. Victor is God of the Bass

[squiresuzuki]

So cool. He's coming to my city in one month!

[ibarg350dx]

This guy could take off Les Claypool in Primus..Awesome!!

[beyondredemption871]

[XxBFMV24xX]

[waka867]

I'm just gonna keep it totally real....82 people are jealous as hell

[Alimacca]

Not feeling it, but for some reason most of you idiots are.

[theatomizer]

@Alimacca I'd suggest you never listen to music again, then. :)

[Alimacca]

@theatomizer And I would suggest you suck my balls

[theatomizer]

@Alimacca Meh, I don't really want herpes. Thanks for the offer though! 

[ChuckNorris134]

[chowman29]

Buckethead played bass at the House of Blues in Anaheim on July 16th!! It was so amazing!

[LArsISmyNAme]

[MrTomdapom11]

jhdbuaiebgyrgvhejk oh sorry i was wiping the jizz off my keyboard!

[SpartanLaserCanon]

This is how Boners Are Made!

[DylanPlaysDrumAlot]

Really... I didn't know there was a bass player on this planet who couldn't do this. Besides guys and girls who are just starting out

[EcuadorFreak]

@DylanPlaysDrumAlot Just starting out what? dating. lol oh come on this cant be THAT easy.

[SgtZaqq]

Les Claypool with a mask and bucket on his head.

[fishiesDONTswim]

His Thumb Must Be Magic O_O

[meatloafdelta]

What is that effect?

[Silvermanav]

@meatloafdelta I think it's auto-wah, with a litlle bit of synth. But i'm not sure

[mikeguitar41]

@Silvermanav It's definitely Auto-Wah

[ChuckNorris134]

@meatloafdelta It's a DOD Envelope Filter.

[x08x08x08x]

really...thats all it takes to be thought of as great on a bass...guss i should post a vid i guess...and for loefje...bass with the right equipment can sound crazy and awesome just like reg elec guitars...and also if you'll notice he plays banjo...as does les claypool and many other bassist because useing the banjo style on bass is just freekin sick...as for chrismorris...good bassist can keep up with the best double bass drummers it's really fun slapping or using finger to play that fast

[loefje1337]

wtf, that doesnt sound like a bass at all xD

[Chrismorris30]

Fuck, how does his hands and fingers move that fast

[RorroHardy]

conchetumare la wea LOOOOOOOOOOOOOCA

[BelieveIntheBucket]

[StonerMafiaRecords]

[LordHondros]

Holy shit, is there anything he can't do?

[Piten4]

He is sitting on a Bucket, as a bas player he must be called Bucketbutt.

[TehDrunkenMonkey]

@Piten4 No BucketButtHead

[ElMaqoToro]

funky!

[legendsveil]

i want him to be my guitar and bass teacher xD

[mario1136]

Holy shit......Buckethead isn't even recognized as a bassist, yet he's better than alot of famous bassists. This is the most epic slap solo ever.

[Taekwondokakid]

@mario1136 Yeah weird xDDD...



[mario1136]

@Taekwondokakid yep

[bfish420]

whoa.

[bfish420]

@rhcp4565 Way to steal that from the next recommended video. Fuck you

[st0nnec0ld]

@bfish420 What was rhpc4565s comment? He has deleted it.

[loljonasfail]

@rhcp4565 That's not copied or anything...

[SuperElectricbass]

@loljonasfail I dont see why anyone would want to.It sucks.Ive heard better.

[mario1136]

@rhcp4565 Yeah, never heard THAT one before.....

[tdiguy123]

you guys. It's buckethead. He plays bass with the same technique as he plays guitar. Another thing, Les' bass doesn't look like that, and Les uses the same bass for everything

[alexlocurto]

@tdiguy123 Not really, watch the Big Brown Beaver video, then watch a video of him with the Fearless Flying Frog Brigade, he uses different basses.

And also, Bucket is nowhere near as good as Les. Sure they might be able to play at about the same speed, but there's no taste in Bucket's music. It's all speed for him. Les has much more musical maturity.

[exquisiteoath]

@alexlocurto To second this,  speed is about 1/10th of what a real musician needs. Look at the greatest of the great and speed is there sure, but it's a tool in the toolbox, not the end goal.

[alexlocurto]

@exquisiteoath Exactly. That's why I will always respect people like Victor Wooten, Stanley Clarke, Marcus Miller, and even Billy Sheehan more than the Bucket.
