[yummishlyproductions]

Así No Se Toca Contrabajo, Haber Para La Informacion De Todos, El Bajo Electrico Es Diferente Al Contrabajo, El Contrabajo,Se Utiliza De Pie, De Forma Vertical, Y Se Toca Con Todos Los Dedos, A Veces Con Arco, Y Otras Con Pitsocatto, Como Toco, Tocan Los Ignorantes, Miren Un Video De Verdad Como Gary Karr O Dragonetti, Para Que Vean La Forma Correcta De Tocar Un Contrabajo.

[TheRocky2509]

[cursedswordsman]

LMFAO. I knew this would be good from the thumbnail.

[YoungEfficient]

so an electric bass guitar must be played upright?

[leoppmkd2]

Now i know why there were cut-outs from the sides....

[madrefoka]

HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHA



[Suicide1by1lemons]

First song I learned on bass... brings back memories... Now I play the entire thing on my guitar... So dang catchy.

[CptChaos88]

wow, expertvillage released a new tutorial...

[TheSRalston]

I laughed a lot with this one, thank you...do you know where I can find the adequate strap for playing it standing up?

[Music4Life2471]

haha funny! looks like i need a bigger room to play the bass the right way :)

[AndyCoversUnofficial]

awesome dude! haha... i loled so much xD you said "take a comfortable position" and yet i am pretty sure that holding the double bass like that ain't comfy at all xD... check my videos too by the way :) i did this channel for one of my friends that is very talented but he ain't very known O.o anyway... COOL one xD

[Maximo22productions]

In soviet Russia... The bass play you!

[XxhoneybadgersxX]

i did this in orchestra class, and i got detention :D

[venskus2009]

hahah youre such an electric player. have you heard of your pinky? xD nice though. im not criticizing btw...

[jacopokahl]

ahhahaah XD

[monkeychunger]

You using neck or bridge pickup. Lol!

[soundmusiclover]

[rippersk8er]

That's how upright bass is played in soviet russia.

[dillpickle327]

i found that funny people need to be able to take a joke

[solskjaerboy1]

[zildjiandrummr12]

@solskjaerboy1

Sunshine Of You Love by Cream.

[zildjiandrummr12]

@zildjiandrummr12 your*

[JosephSwaiger]

i've benn waiting soo long...

[BoboSab3121]

is this from expertvillage?

[SgtZaqq]

He plays it right way. It even has a notch for a hand!

[lermenchild]

by this, you have no right to even touch an upright....

1 there is a reason its called UPRIGHT bass

2 there is a reason i have NEVER someone pla it that way

3 the 'cut out' is not to go on ur thigh like the waist of an electric, its for the bow

[Scapp302]

@lermenchild Take a joke asshole.

[g742617000027]

@lermenchild seriously, what Scapp302 said. jesus christ man. as my daddy always used to say, fuck you:D

[BoboSab3121]

@lermenchild no shit

[delkhairio]

sunshine of your love

[venskus2009]

very educational. i play my bass that way sometimes. its easier.

[ALaughProduction1]

OMG! lol I tried that, and I failed. Nice technic dude xD

[altairPWK]

SPOT ON DUDE GREAT TEACHING. lol you're funny. =)

[thesinner922]

Its getting near dawn

when lights close their tired eyes...

[TheScarharo]

!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??­!?!?!

[MrIlikecheetos]

FUCKING LOL!!!! :D

[zeromant80]

And its better than ExpertderpVillage... IMO that cover of "Sunshine of your love" by Cream sounded good...

[cooperpovl]

Nice, but the ability to hit the g string could be useful either

[BigPickard]

Sheer badassery! Sounded awesome too.

Reminds me of Pete Steele. Except he was 8 feet tall (go ahead correct me, point is the man was huge) so when he slung a double bass over his shoulder it looked like a 7/8 cello.

[crdkill]

sunshine of your love

[Meerkatdawg]

I first did this with "the chain" by fleetwood mac about hmmm...22 years ago.

1. Man I feel old!!

2. This never gets old!!

[gallespaul]

lol i watched you yesterday and today i played like this in my orchestra class XD

[JamesBarry1130]

That's not a double bass. That's an upright bass.

[ghitaciprian]

@JamesBarry1130 that.s the same, the difference it in the base quality (the upright is poorer than the original double-bass) and the strings made form gut

[JamesBarry1130]

@ghitaciprian Well, the title's wrong.

[bronzehydra3]

@ghitaciprian actually, they're the same. Just different names.

Just like how Bass guitar = Electric Bass

[Dralcoffin]

@JamesBarry1130 They're the exact same instrument.

[8000cheese]
