Tool - The Pot (Bass Cover)

[IBANEZxFTW]

Fantastic cover bro, I dont know how to play bass but I know how to play guitar and this song looks alot harder on the bass then it is on the guitar.

[Russianjackhammer000]

@AdrenalineThrob. Obviously you are stupid as fuck

[ifgtry]

Again, Beautiful job. Omg.

Like, I find it to be the sexiest thing, A dude who can play bass.

Especially tool covers. <3

[AdrenalineThrob]

This bass cover is pure shit. Check out my channel to watch a video of me doing a REAL bass cover. Fuck this guy.

[remiiiiiii]

@AdrenalineThrob cool story bro. I think there's room for everyone on youtube, no need to be agressiv ;) and I'm happy to make you advertising ! :)

[CrossHasADeathwish]

@AdrenalineThrob

Lol you're a real asshole aren't you? Fucking cunt.

[vrhc4life]

Dude i already told you that you've got awesome bass, now i must ask one question. What kind of ampilifier do you use? Is it AMPEG? 'Cause it got balls man how it sounds. Again great work. :)

[remiiiiiii]

@vrhc4life Direct recording on this video, otherwise you have my gear list on my profile

[capta1nfa1c0n]

Your tone has some awesome growl to it. It took me forever to make my rig sound like yours.

[remiiiiiii]

@capta1nfa1c0n you realise there's no rig here, right ? It's just direct recording

[J7XGeetar13]

@capta1nfa1c0n thats just how a music man sounds in general im the proud owner of one hahaha

[Mightypocketzz]

IT'S SO GOOD!

[Gam3Own3rs]

Dude this is just amazing! Pure skill!

[remiiiiiii]

@Gam3Own3rs thanks ;)

[toot1231]

How do you get that grungy sound?

[remiiiiiii]

@toot1231 by hitting hard the strings (+ the visible poles of the pickup helps)

[toot1231]

@remiiiiiii I played stinkfist hitting the strings pretty hard it sounds amazing ty.

[remiiiiiii]

@toot1231 u'r welcome. hit them hard ! :D

[jboogey98126]

good picking. wish i could play with a pick. i am all fingers, and boy...they fly!

[ruski09]

@jboogey98126 haha was just like u. the thought of a pick was retarded for me. but slowly started playing with it when learning tool songs. now i prefer it. more punchy and heavy

[jboogey98126]

@ruski09 i am working on it, but after a few beers and some pot, i revert back to my old ways.

[TheJohnven]

What brand amp are u playing thru ? nice playin ,sounds great

[tookurjaerbs]

Good jaerb!

[megadeth9000]

that open E sounds so fuckin heavy

[remiiiiiii]

@megadeth9000 it's an open D ;)

[megadeth9000]

@remiiiiiii well i guess thats why it sounds so heavy lol i started learning the song yesterday i got the intro down its not a very hard song but you killed it dude

[bodyguardcocuk]

do you play with pick everytime or specially tool's songs ??

[remiiiiiii]

@bodyguardcocuk most of the time. But I "know" how to play with my fingers, I learn bass that way actually. check my other videos, I play with fingers on some

[OpenCasket94]

Can't play with your fingers?

[remiiiiiii]

@OpenCasket94 Oh no I can't. Or the earth will explode.

[ThePdiddles]

@OpenCasket94 Finger picking isn't the only way to play a bass lol. Or else they wouldn't make picks, invent slap bass, etc.

[blakeoaks25]

@OpenCasket94 You do realize the player for Tool uses a pick right?

[otMaSa613]

fuckin eh bud

[bobagon79]

Great cover!!

[evilconnor]

Hey! You're really good! I wish to get better every day. I just have a cheap bass - $300, but it works for our band. You can check us out if you want! We've only played two shows. \/\/\/\/\/\/. facebook. <0m/WhenAllElseFails1

[capta1nfa1c0n]

That bass tone is brilliant. Low D? How about the growl of a panther.

[sebzmc]

[tbayley27]

[vampiregirly11]

Nice Job!

[remiiiiiii]

@vampiregirly11 thanks

[Deenowze]

Your bass is a musicman(every bassist who respects himself should know that)Tabs can be found on the internet(either noone knows that or they are too lazy to search)and you sir did a great cover!Cool sound and smooth playing!

[remiiiiiii]

@Deenowze haha, nice comment :D thanks ;)

[laploye]

[beatsmalone]

[ziofrenko]

wonderful wirsk move!

[mydgetboy]

what kind of bass is this???

[Aeway100]

Nice technique, but you had many minor timing flaws. Still it was pretty good, keep it up.

[Mr5stringBob]

Good job bro. Love the tone of your bass, its awesome when I listen thru headphones. I can't figure out the 2nd solo either, maybe add some kind of wah to what you're already doing? Anyway, keep up the good work!

[Draenub]

Quick question; What tuning are you using?

Also, great video, very, very nice!

[desnickadoabyss]

@Draenub it's drop D

[kutlessrocker23]

To be so simple, Tool has some of the coolest bass ever. And you did an awesome job with this.

[remiiiiiii]

@kutlessrocker23 thanks

[Lopokato124]

@kutlessrocker23 You made me feel real bad now :P, took me about 2 weeks to get that riff in :/

[yourcopeman]

Im not a pick guy, but you were spot on man! I love TOOL, and you did a hell of a job!

[remiiiiiii]

@yourcopeman thanks ;)

[MrDarkston3]

Great video, i'm gonna learn this song, i bought my bass four days ago and i didn't know how to use it.

[Muscle462Memory]

21 people must have been high

[Muscle462Memory]

the bass intro is finger-plucked, just sayin'

[edmundthebeast]

1:35 <3

[javiXYX]

Hi there!

[remiiiiiii]

@javiXYX Hi,

btw, on this particular cover, it's a DI recording, so .. no amp ;)

[lizziebudds]

[remiiiiiii]

@pimpc1125 haha, come back to the dark side ;)

[tvidst]

What amp are you using?

[remiiiiiii]

@tvidst see my profile :(

[sakisushisamurai]

This is epic but when I look it up the tabs sound wrong, could you maybe do an in-depth or sorta summin like that for a few tool songs?

[AwesomeConor]

This is epic! you should be lead guitar ;)

[TheAdventurexyzzy]

Tone, articulation, rhythmic sense.... PERFECT

[NotRealFiction]

You might get this a lot but...is the rooms pager friendly?

[remiiiiiii]

@NotRealFiction I'm sorry, I don't understand the question.

[useemupset12]

i know people might ask this alot... but can i suck your dick?

[remiiiiiii]

@useemupset12 "i know people might ask this alot" lol. Not that often actually :D

I'm sorry you can't.

(I left it at home.)

[MeteoraCyst]

This a stingray?

[deadkennedymad]

[GordonNoveto]

@MeteoraCyst It's a Music Man Sterling in Honeyburst ;)

[daterminator70]

ya musta bn hiiiggghhhh...great cover dude.

[jamesmcer]

You should turn the bass volume up a little more so it is a noticeable standout :) Thanks for the video, it helped a lot.

[etglasstortvand]

@thetruerater5 It's in 4/4 :) Amazing as it sounds :)

[Paintphotoshop]

fell* lol

[Paintphotoshop]

I feel in love

[pinkhotty100]

Pure SWEETNESS! Great job, loved watching you play. looking forward for more. :)

[jojojoexplosion]

everythings perfeect. oh and i love your bass

[thetruerater5]

anyone know what time signature this song is in? i cant figure it out =[

[HeckTo]

@thetruerater5 it goes like this... 123412341234123412341234123412­3412341234.....!

[thetruerater5]

@HeckTo By golly you sure are right...*facepalm*

[celestial1965]

Best job on here.... very well done!

[ScalpelsGlazeUntamed]

i know people might ask this alot... but how do you get that really crunchy bass sound that is present in most tool songs? thank you also great job sounds perfect :)

[remiiiiiii]

@ScalpelsGlazeUntamed check my gear list on my profile page + my gear video ;)

[squiresuzuki]

@ScalpelsGlazeUntamed All you need for that "really crunchy bass sound" is some nice bright nickel strings, agressive picking, and boosted highs/treble on the EQ. It's quite simple.

[LordEddardStarkJR]

@ScalpelsGlazeUntamed the pick helps give it that sound too

[Mr420rush]

@ScalpelsGlazeUntamed disortion pedal? (:

[squiffyk7]

does it matter what finger you start with alternate finger picking? i always seems to start on my middle... but most people seem to start on their index

[manmcman01]

@squiffyk7 No, It really doesn't. Its all personal preference!!

[josepunkthrashdude]

when i read the description i was like oh well its good so far then you did the solo and i was like "you dont have the right effects my ass" its perfect! :)

[steventuckerhayes]

Hahaha, this is great man. When I learned this, I couldn't get the timing down. You nailed it.

[Ayaku90]

Super cover :) Tu utilises quoi comme matos, hors mis la basse, pour avoir ce son s'il te plais ? ^^

[mentaloaf]

Just wanted you to know I just watched like 5 other attempts at this on youtube and yours was BY FAR the best, good job...

[mentaloaf]

Good job dude, you want to start a band with me?

[ugotsmacked1]

SPEACHLESS!!! Sick job remiiiiiii! Sorry if i missed an i lol

[s5shifter24]

Anyone else notice that his right hand is super white?

[remiiiiiii]

@s5shifter24 i just have dark hair on my arms :D

[s5shifter24]

@remiiiiiii Either way, you are amazing. You kind of make me want to quit just because I will never be able to play at this level.

[cr8zykill3r]

@s5shifter24 he stole an asian hand !

[mevalade]

Un jour! Un jour je vais l'avoir!!!

[ShnarfMyDarf]

Fuck that was good though.

[ShnarfMyDarf]
