Yes the original way is played with a pick. I hate picking but i find its the best way to get the attack and speed of the song. granted i havent been playing bass for too long. the reason i think everyone says the pick sounds harsh is just the tone of the basses used in most vids. You cant beat a Ernie Ball MM . lol..
@spicyMcHAGGIS9green Did you even read my comment, i said i use a pick on this song and many more to achieve the speed for this song. And i never said it was wrong to use a pick, its a preference thing, for me i prefer to not use the pick whenever i could avoid it.
Yay!!! Another pick user!! I love using pick!! Anyway, good job ^^b

My only problem with this: You have a pinky. Use it. Everything will sound a lot more smooth. Your playing is a bit stiff.

@abranco87 Pick hater. There is no wrong way to play bass. Picks, fingers, pop-slap, you can even use a slide. Different ways create different tones.
