[freakenretarded03]

tabs pls.. :D



[schimmelpenninq]

@freakenretarded03

Just use your ears and eyes man!!!

[TheKovajatka]

Are you related to Chuck Norris?

[jontheundertaker]

this should be barack obamas intro instead of hail to the chief.

[sturoc0]

There's alot more going here than just the right hd technique. Pickups and any further preamp-ing is also adding to the tone as well.

[nattydread666]

Chuck Norris plays bass. well !

[partoftheprocess]

nothing special, actually

[shatteredmemorie]

AJAJAJAJAJAJAJ BEST PORNO BASS

[JustusFriedolin]

[abbiem95]

@hoipiepeloiification and kills it:D

[Bobcrackerlacker]

Damn, this cracker can play the funk outta that bass.

[hoipiepeloiification]

Hey mister, your E string lacks in volume, you should adjust your bass!

Your timing sucks a little, but nice playing, keep on practicing dude or take some lessons!!

[jonjonjonmw3]

@hoipiepeloiification lol

[AStepAhead100]

@hoipiepeloiification lol This guy is a world class bass player.

[ChiefOrtolanSnowbird]

Even his voice has the funk.

[1325ACO]

@ChiefOrtolanSnowbird haha yeah. He looks like, talks like, and even plays bass like a washed-out 80's porn star.

[Amezz55]

[Venomguitar]

Is it just me, or when he talks he seems like he's had a few to drink...

[TrojanSkinhead94]

What kinda bass does he have?

[technisize]

Wow!! Chuck Norris on the bass!!

[ShadowHost94]

most intense eargasm i've ever had.

[amonnaheadbutcha]

This bassline would be more pornous with a wah wah.

[JacoThe2nd]

[THEINVENTABLETHREAT]

[coopah1]

[nothingishere31]

[monkcapo]

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam­my

[n64wilbert]

Hell yea!!!

[ferniedz1]

Great bass player

[watsonj13]

Anyone know how to get my bass to sound this way? Mine has a lower, more chill tone. What kind of strings would get me closer to a funk sound?

[wslyhrpr7]

@watsonj13 using a brighter gauge string helps give it that tone. also might depend on what type of bass you are using and your pickups

[watsonj13]

@wslyhrpr7 Thanks. That's exactly what I was looking for. I'll go see what our local instrument store has.

[MomoTheBellyDancer]

Haha. He makes it look SO easy. This is hard stuff, people.

[intahipp]

Somebody better warn the authorities that Godzilla is on the loose.....!!!!

[TheFBM2011]

yeah he's Rocco Siffredi on his bass guitar lol

[TMRonin85]

And now I'm wondering if I should stop using my pick to play Bass. Damn it...

[themacmann24]

@TMRonin85 you shouldn't have used a pick with a bass in the first place. Might as well have never purchased a bass if you intended to use a pick :P

[DumbedDownSociety]

@TMRonin85 it will improve your sound. but i play both ways,,depends on what style i wish to play.

[LJPV777]

@TMRonin85 If you want funk, finger that shit :P

[TheStampedehero]

Disco bassists copied you. You are the original Glad I have listened and learned from a humble talent. Castillo still remembers you as "Butch" . Happy you made it through bad health to good.

[Cxaxakluth]

Rocco, master of the 16th note. lol

[Cheezy94]

Oh, Rocco. You make me so wet. ... wait, I'm a guy. O_O

[bunnygalxoxo]

@Cheezy94 LOL

[MrNathan791]

[TheModCon]

Could just be one of the best funk bass lines ever written

[BMFrank5]

[NismoRB25]

[julianisdope]

prestia and garabaldi ....one of the greatest rhythm sections of all time

[emjee]

@julianisdope This is the most powerful statement in all of the tube of You.

[Droyyy]

[Thegodfather847]

The only reason why I go to this video is to listen to the bass part starting at 0:18..makes me grow out an afro and boogie!

[ahaaaaaaaaah]

Your low E string lacks in volume,

you should adjust your pick ups a bit!

Nice playing, but not really in the pocket I think.

Keep on practicing! Look for a good bassteacher!

[riddleman65]
