Motörhead - Ace of Spades - Bass Cover

[xAce9009x]

Lolol. Ur playing bass, not lead guitar.

[MrBrawl]

@xAce9009x "You're" typing on the Internet, and I'm not giving a shit. That's how Lemmy plays it; lrn2Motorhead.

[xAce9009x]

@MrBrawl You missed my "Laugh out loud out loud" acronym.

[MrBrawl]

@xAce9009x Oic what you mean... lol.

[skull9111]

@xAce9009x man who gives a shit, who said bass cant be a lead instrument, often it sounds better than the lead guitar and deserves the spotlight but people like you hold them back from letting the music be what it could be

[281JCM]

Did u play the intro with chords because it didnt sound like it

[MrBrawl]

@281JCM Nope; intro is with single notes.

[Gadaffied]

Hey nice cover man. Whats your pedal? I want to get one with overdrive like that.

[teamstarpug]

Damn it man, you're awesome. Any tips for someone who wants to take up bass?

[seleselo]

[TheNoobVersion]

[nikoshurricane]

[TheMiskaThe]

[mauriciosolano]

[seamac206]

what pedals and/or effects does lemmy use in this song?

[DavidMason093]

@seamac206 Lemmy dosen't, its just his bass and amps...setting are bass off, treble and mids at 3 o clock

[MegaGky]

i want your PC monitor so bad



[seanster123456789]

[jurnag12]

Lemmy, the dude who single-handedly proves that you can play bass with a pick and still be badass.

[ibanezbassiest]

Nice

[Ramtough93]

Can u do a cover of "Keep us on the Road" by motorhead? Thats one of Lemmy's best performances in my opinion

[suxdudemungus]

OH MY GOD I MUST KNOW THESE CHORDS AND HOW TO PLAY THEM!!!! MAKE A TUTORIAL MAN PLEASE OH GOD THIS IS BEAUTIFUL

[RobbKongMetal999]

Dude, are you playing the song with Zune software? If so, that is awesome! I have a Zune as well!

Awesome cover, by the way!

[krowrrkz]

[203ltachl203]

lol on ur computer theres the ace of spades album

[seanrquinn]

dude i love how much of a bassist you are, same with me, holding a pick i just don't look natural xD

[bassistxx]

What is the finish on the body? Is it satin or gloss or....??

And what is the finish on the back of the neck Satin or gloss and...??

[MrBrawl]

@bassistxx I believe it's an all-natural finish, nothing added to it :)

[chrisgreece52]

@bassistxx MAYBE U THINK ITS GLOSS CUZ THE LIGHT FROM THE WINDOW!!!

[RavenShadowcast]

You left out the big slide he does at the beginning.

[chevrolet201212]

when you play the chords are you suposed to strum all 4 strings or just the one the strings that you press on?

[MrBrawl]

@chevrolet201212 Well, I do, but it's probably not the way Lemmy plays it. I just did that for fun.

[chevrolet201212]

@MrBrawl oh ok. but still sounds really good though.

[Slapbass19]

@MrBrawl Does Lemmy ALWAYS play note by note or is he playing permanent chords on certain songs?

Kickass cover btw!!

[BigDaveNeg]

@Slapbass19 he plays root notes and chords on most

[01Niky34]

@chevrolet201212 yeah...but it sounds good this way!!!

[theyukan]

Oh Geeze... I love you, dude.

[bogazzi0]

can you send me the tab and long of note

[XXXHellWarriorXXX]

who is the tab

[Iguana875]

@XXXHellWarriorXXX your the tab

[XXXHellWarriorXXX]

WHO IS THE TAB¿ PLASE

[hequbiss]

LEMMY DOESNT PLAY CHORDS

[MrBrawl]

Well he should; they're more fun :)

[blaisems]

lemmy uses chords all the time

[lunne14]

@hequbiss actually he does ;P

[BigDaveNeg]

@hequbiss lemmy does play chords

[engel220]

@hequbiss Actually, he does. He uses a mixture of standard power chords and what I call "Octave chords" where he plays certain chords like A or D with the open string and a fretted octave.

[BigDaveNeg]

@hequbiss yes he does

[MolesMalone]

@hequbiss he does. look at the way he hands are placed on the neck, he plays 2 strings at once, its more like rhythm guitar then actually bass playing

[slash3448]

@hequbiss He does

[haggis325]

@hequbiss Verified live, Lemmy plays chords.

[RobMetalCheese]

@hequbiss So? It's called artistic license.

[juanfrica1409]

@hequbiss Actually, Lemmy DOES. And its the only person in the world that makes bass chords sound so fucking awesome. Why? Cause Lemmy is God man, GOD!

[BigDaveNeg]

@hequbiss yeah he does

[sumsum19911]

@hequbiss Yeah he does,all the time.. just power chords.. but still. It's what makes his sound so distinctive imo. look at some live vids, you can see him do it most of the time

[markmark111]

@hequbiss

He does, from his years as a rhythm guitarist.

[Spamdownftw]

Sound better if you used your fingers like Lemmy :P + you're not playing the correct bassline, but still fucking awesome 5*

[MrBrawl]

Lemmy plays with a pick, dude. That's the only reason I used a pick in this vid :P

And that...truly is the bass line. Minus an improv and continued strumming for the verse, and he probably doesn't match the guitar for the "the Ace of Spades" part.

[geohoundzalbag]

@MrBrawl lol "Lemmy plays this and that" its hilarious :D

half of em couldnt do half the job.

nice playin. and yeah, pick playing is only nice with chords...

strumming em with fingers sounds too soft for this song :D

[BigDaveNeg]

@Spamdownftw lemmy uses a pick

[chevrolet201212]

@Spamdownftw lemmy played with a pick for that song. thats what gave it that sound.

[Adalmun]

nice play but try to set the tune buddy

[MrBrawl]

Not sure what you mean, but sure :P

[LittleBuddah118]

u so need a rick

[rancena]

can you give me a tab ?

[ibasshands]

that is a very nice cort bass guitar =) i had the privilege to play that exact bass at the music store down the street...its very nice

[suicide3636]

how high is your treb and bass??

[LanceMetal]

awesome cover 5*

[lemmycro]

i have same guitar stand

[betonosystem]

me gusto

[Mast3rOfMuppets82]

are you using your nail as an alternate pick?

[MrBrawl]

Nope, this was picking with a 2.0mm pick all the way through :)

[Mast3rOfMuppets82]

@MrBrawl I just thought that 'cause you said "you don't need a pick for this one"

[MrBrawl]

Oh, you mean in the beginning? I said, "gonna need a pick for this one" :P

But in broader terms, you never "need" a pick, but it does give a great sound for certain genres and such :D

[Mast3rOfMuppets82]

@MrBrawl woops lol

oh well

[raikageremy]

Awesome playing guy!

Keep'on rocking!

[iLive4metal666]

you rock man!

[the1andonlydonkey]

lol wats up wth ur computer screen

[MrBrawl]

You mean the bars going up and down? That's normal when a camera films an old CRT monitor like that :P Happens all the time, and I've since upgraded monitors anyway so :)

[metalfool4295]

nice cover. but did lemmy use overdrive?

[T0TTI91]

@metalfool4295 yes. lemmy use overdrive, propably he use in this cover standard bass combo not electric

[Chigo21]

2 things.

1. amazing cover bro. i say, good job on covering an amazing piece of metal.

2. your bass is fucking sexy as hell!

[bamz95]

awsome bass cover

[TheMavenFrankeus]

Awesome. I just wrote Ace of Spades bass solo, and I found this!

[Micka841]

I planing to buy this bass, are you serious when you say that bass plays like a $1000 bass ??

Oh ! And superb cover, very nice :)

(sorry for my english)

[sublinhadoGSK]

niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice :P

good cover!!!

hugs

[sheeba8188]

man that was fucking a. That thing at 1:36 was fucking awesome XD

[0O0Axium0O0]

since all the people here are talking about gay and fags, i got a wuestion: why did they have the change the national gay colour to rainbow? its my favorite, and the people who chose that colour should get sued by skittles, there new mooto is :Feel the rainbow, Taste the gay.....poor skittles

[MadMic21]

Motörhead WILL NOT DIE!!!!!!!

[DarkOri]

yeah probably the best bass cover on youtube for this song :)

wow, i want your bass.. cant afford it lol

[yahoodirk]

Very nice very nice :)...

ignore the idiots and move on is always a good solution btw

I mean, how can y be a faggot when you like motorhead >_>

i mean faggots are those top40 gay kind of types wearing pink shiz and other gayness.

nice cover

[xXRosenroTxXxBabezXx]

Right on , this is the best cover of Ae Of Spades I've ever heard. Btw, the count in at the start or rather how you were off beat was very barely noticable.

[Leatherfaceification]

yeah the brutal

[BrevGraff]

Youre such a faggot, can you not move put some heart into it youre like a robot

[MrBrawl]

I'd rather be a robot than a guy who thinks "faggot" is a good insult. Nice try, though, I think I'll do what I've always done: ignore the idiots and move on. How's that sound? :)

[josen02]

how can he call you a faggot for not moving? I think you move alot more than alot of the people doing basscovers here

[BladeLemonMilk]

LOL, Dude did you see BrevGraff's video? that was the fucking gayest thing ive ever seen.

[linerider667]

Don't be mean because he can play it better than you.

[emwjmannen2]

fuck u brevgraff haha

[hernandeznathan50]

Keep rocking out!

[dragula82pavia]

you need more practic! your bass sucks

[MrBrawl]

You need to practice spelling and learn to make an actual argument :) .

[ammigooo]

try to keep rythm

[MrBrawl]

Really dude? Really? I'd hate to say so, but I'm pretty sure I'm keeping rhythm (yes, take note on that spelling there, little boy) by the fact that my bass playing matches up with the song.

[666deathjunior]

is that a stagg bass?

[MrBrawl]

Read the description there, man ;)

[Melermometal]

If you've been playing guitar so long how come you only post bass covers?

[MrBrawl]

That would be because I haven't played guitar seriously since I began playing bass XD Bass had really enamored me in a way I could never get into for guitar, and now there's no turning back :P I might post a guitar cover in the distant future, but don't expect anything anytime soon :P Bass is where I am now and expect to be for the rest of my life! :D

[Phillovich]

this video was sponsored by mountain dew

[MrBrawl]

Pah, I wish! Then I'd get payed for this...I sure need some cash-flow! XD

[Phillovich]

Hey man could you record some death from above 1979 covers?

[Menetoc]

Great cover, and it should be played with a pick because that's how Lemmy does it.

[dillonjbean]

kick ass bass

[T0TTI91]

yeah! keep rocking man !

[renomj41]

good stuff maynard

[stryder44]

great cover

[AlegouveiaII]

i can play it too...it's the way u play a guita...the blues way to rock....it's the kind of techinic that you don't learn with a teacher or studyin, you just learn

[simonhoverberg]

Very Nice!, Lemmy should be proud! :D. what do you have for effects

[insanedoublebass]

sweet, nice bass.

[kudrnacpunx77]

hey dude cool. How long have you practiced?

[DigaOUp]

You Are Lemmy's Son

[jonttu687]

Motörhead isn't the loudest band in the world, ManOwaR is :)

[DarkSilot]

very good playing but.... with pick c mon dude u got bass no guitar bass is for fingers playig

[MrBrawl]

If you'd check out my other videos, you'd clearly see I prefer finger style :P

Also, I only used a pick because Lemmy uses a pick.

[paradoxson]

idiot, to get this sound you NEED a pick...

picks are not only for noobs and guiatr players -.-

[FiloVanMewa]

That's true. I hate playing with pick but there's no way to play that song with fingers. It just sounds too soft.

[newoaklandlocal]

nah i learned it with fingers...just dig deep and play loud...

[FiloVanMewa]

Wouldn't it give a more slap-like sound? Anyway it's surely harder to play it with fingers.

[newoaklandlocal]

more of a distorted sound...use some fuzz effects and i bet it would sound beautiful...and yea it is very hard but it only took me about 10 minutes to play it good..i cant play with a pick so i try as hard as possible to get it good with my fingers

[duffmasterofpuppets]

yea playing those fast chords with your fingers are a nightmare....plus its easier to sing when you're using a pick

[josen02]

this song is meant to be played with a pic, you get alot better sound :]

[stryder44]

true dosent lemmy use a pick on this song too

[FiloVanMewa]

Lemmy always uses pick

[skeetmeat23]

that was realy good man

[AJxONxFIRE]

hey dude nice playing, i actually used this video to learn the song. But seriously dude nobody's gotten laid in cargo shorts since Nam

[MrBrawl]

Thanks!

As for my shorts, I don't really care. Sorry ;)

[FreshBeefDips]

I beg to differ :)

[braddudeguy]

Amazing cover man!

[papstbenni]

damn fucking awesome!

[x69metalhead69x]

power chords with a bass?!?!?!

HOLY SHIT XD

[chacer28571]

POWER CHORDS!

FUCK YEAH!

[x69metalhead69x]

FUCK YEAAHH!!!

[aR3tardedtiger]

Gonna need a pick for this one! lol hahaha nice. Great cover 5/5.

[mondoinc]

try to find an IRON pick, those strings will kill any regular pick around there haha

[Gamerzox]

dumbass, you need a soft pick for bass --'

[mondoinc]

how ever it is not a regular one.

[Gamerzox]

i know.. but you said an IRON pick --'

[renomj41]

NASTY!

[dreamtheat3r]

ur bass sounds badass, even without effects

[Cz930]

rly nice cover i can tell when i watch a vid and wanna go play my bass lol 5/5

[TheUnlucky101]

When a grab a bass, definitely a song I intend to cover. Gonna see if I can do this with fingers though, as picking on a bass just feels wrong to me.

Excellent cover dude, giving this an A. :D
