[boomershadow]

I hope you're in a band that makes appropriate use of this badassery.

[blackblood11789]

Great stuff. Just out of curiosity, is that the older model of the Pheonix?

[dedbass]

@blackblood11789 Its a Traben Kore. I dont think they make them anymore. I am sure the Phoenix plays much better!

[croydondsouza]

Traben pheonix!! nice bro i love trabens..i have a four string sittin in my lap as im typing..the best basses i ever played with

[chicalleje]

Are you a guitarrist playing bass?

[dedbass]

No, if that were the case, I'd be playing with a pick.

[darksymphonybass]

nice one haha.

how did you learn to play like this though??

your so amazing. i dont even know where to start learning this.

[dedbass]

Thanks for the kind words. Check out Billy Sheehan and Victor Wooten. I learned a lot from those guys.

[darksymphonybass]

damn.

their amazing guys.

thats just mostly scales though right?

[dedbass]

Mostly, I definitely recommend learning as many scales as possible.

[feverhood]

this sounded like electro mixed with a little rock. don't know what else to say :D

[0wntJorBacon]

That was amazing.

[soptamer]

weiiirrrrrdd but creative as hell.... love it +5

[dedbass]

Thanks I appreciate the comment. I am always tryin to do something different. I dont want to sound like anyone else. So, thank you wierd is a good compliment..

[Risheaux]

Claypool on crack. 5/5

[goatcheese514]

Dude! Awesome. I think you'd sound better with a better tone setting and a more sensative bass. I know I might not be qualified to say that, but that's just my observation. Very good, regardless.

[dedbass]

I fully agree with you. I recently got that bass adjusted and it sounds a little better. But I am still looking for a better tone. This song does sound better live though. My camera doesnt pick up the tone that well. Thanks for the great comment and the kind words. Keep me posted and let me know when you get some of your bass videos up.
