[BenLaRock]

Fuk'n AWESOME!!! PROBABLY THE BEST RENDITION OF ANY SONG EVER!!!

[RDJim]

standard tuning?



[jeetallica]

wow man...really cool

[twowheelzforme]

Off the hook good!  Loved it!!

[raulasaf1993]

hi could you tell me how the effect is called q are using for your bass sound as sharp as a guitar?

[VideoMask93]

@raulasaf1993 Piccolo strings. See his website.

[ethsailliamswa]

You put da cat to sleep??? awsome

[RogerWatersfan73]

Hey Zander, I've been working on a CD project, doing like you do. You've inspired me. Getting closer to the finale of my CD project. Just have to record and re-record parts and synch them. Then I have to find a couple female voices for a couple songs. :D I'm very happy how well it's coming together. I'll let you know if I sell it online.

[jokergd]

@RogerWatersfan73 I love that Zander does everything in one track :)

[bungaciput]

wow its's great, amazing, you have a good talent. thumbs up!

[Seraephus]

Dude, you need to mess around with a chapman stick, I'd be awesomely interested to see you tackle that.

[acousticguitarfan]

awesome!

[TheAlmostGod888]

what kind of bass is that???? wait let me read the discription

[kisho0ong]

nice version!?! is this on a standard tuning? wat key?

[bucket34]

You are on a whole other level! 

[KongoXIIV]

Whoa whoa what was that @ 3:10? I'm looking but I'm not working it out...Sounds awesome!

[Zander4724]

@KongoXIIV

it was a strumming technique i've been working on!

[sonicshori]

@Zander4724 if m not mistaken its similar to victor's double thumb and pop and you have a really awesome tone its shimmering but still sounds like a bass great work

[sonicshori]

i am talking about the thing you did at 3:10

[Zander4724]

@sonicshori

glad you like my sound! that strumming technique is something i've been working on a while. there's two different ways you can do it. the way i do it at 3.10 consists of: down with your index finger, down with the thumb, up with the thumb - so you get a triplet. the other variation on this technique is: down with your index finger, down with the thumb, up with the thumb, up with your index finger. hope this helps!

[davoh59]

WOW!!

[Emilioh25]

Are u in a band?

[marcel21covers]

can you do a cover of romeo & juliet by Dire Starits? it's a beautiful song, I hope to listen from a bass solo...

[Jayzensgran]

You are totally amazing!! Beautiful!

[deandedge1]

what a awesome rendition of this classic!!!!bought tears to my eyes..........u have talent my friend......and feeling!!!!!!!!!!!!thats all i have to say

[Zander4724]

@deandedge1

thanks!

[SuperKuzmitch]

dude you are the best !

[edlift]

Love the outro. Awesome job!!!!!

[edlift]

Tuning is in fourths? Starting on C? Thanks for advice m8. Will do.

[edlift]

Just ordered me a VB4. Can't wait!!! How long did you wait for yours? Anything i should know as far as them setting it up? besides low action? And piccolo strings of course, lol.

[Zander4724]

@edlift

that's awesome! joe took about 5 months to build it. maybe talk to joe about setting up the nut like he did for me. you can have the nut specifically fitted for d'addario piccolo strings, or whichever brand strings you prefer.

[bimmer3fan]

noticed the dog, and one of his others features his cat who looks at him and the guitar as one would look at an alien being, not that I've ever seen an alien...check out his "Tribal Chant" vid...I chuckle whenever I watch it at the cats behaviour:)

[Slinky7Bass]

awesome as always...

you never cease to amaze me

[diegobass21]

great feeling Zander!

awesome!!

[wizman440]

Once again, well done my buddy... You never cease to amaze me!

[Zander4724]

@wizman440

thanks a lot, brian! glad you liked it!

[Minimus9000]

This is amazing man! 

[vantasties]

How's that bass tuned?

[JLudwigCruz]

who noticed the dog?

[Flemmingdoerken]

Aside from the chord voicings, great job on the bass lines on this one too. The hammeron/pulloffs you're doing at 0:54 are tasty. And so is the outro!

[Zander4724]

@Flemmingdoerken

thanks a lot, mate!

[Xrock03]

haha is that a white cat ???

[clr20]

Zander! You're a great bass player, and a good lookin' boy - AND YES, I DO mean that in a very, very gay way.

Get a haircut mate, then do your next vid shirtless.

@Cornbreadddd jealousy.. there is no way someone could ACTUALLY dislike this amazingness.

[MellowDeFretwell]

You need a Firebird and some aviator glasses to go with that bitchin' hair and you'd be a worldwide sensation in days!

Just kidding bro, yet another superb arrangement. Can't wait to catch you live one of the times I cross the pond again.
