The Beatles - With a Little Help From My Friends - Bass line

[MaxiUhlig]

just to say: tight!

[BIuejay]

That's a nice sounding bass.

Epiphone make some great semi-hollow bodies, don't they.

[MuskateerGripWeed]

I have the same bass since 98 and it sounds just as awesome as yours, great job.....

[jammona]

youre missin the techniques

[NanoOnTheBass]

@jammona ??????

[jprg1966]

Excellent cover! There's a great touch to your playing style.

[MasterShower13th]

Ese Epiphone suena de perlas o_O

[BPMontana]

Spot on, mate! This is definitely one of my favorite McCartney basslines!

[MuskateerGripWeed]

Yeah this and Being for the Benefit of Mr Kite, two great bass lines on an amazing record.........

[Fleaa00]

hey man, do you have the bass tab you're playing in this song... it will be very helpfull, thanks.

[Adoniram1986]

Your bass is very cool. You played this tune very good as well. Nice vid. What amp are u usin'?

[nakajaiz]

Thank you !

I'm not using an amp. I'm using a V-tone pedal (Bass BDI 21 - Behringer).

I recorded with Logic Pro, and add some plug-ins, like compressor/limiter and EQ.

[Adoniram1986]

Oh! I'd never thought but now that you told me I can see your V-Tone right on your desk top, hohoho.

Sounds good man. I'm gonna pay more attention to Behringer.

One last question man, what Card-Interface you use to connect your bass and boost it with that bad-ass Logic plug-ins??? My TAPCO FireLink is givin' me some bad jolts... I am about to smash it with my car.

Thanx for answering!!!

[nakajaiz]

I use a M-audio Fast Track. But, If you are looking for an Audio Interface, I recommend the M-audio 410 Fire wire.

[tbourdi]

Very nice - you have totally captured the nuances, which most bass players can't even hear, much less play. Great talent!

[nakajaiz]

Thank you !!!

[twinlorna]

Love this.Also Joe Cocker's cover.

[jammona]

nah, joe cocker is a retarded, he cant sing

[medusaman1]

The Beatles themselves complemented Joe Cocker for his version of the song. Retarded my foot. Cocker gave his version of it forty years ago this very afternoon at Woodstock. His version gave it a new meaning.

[jammona]

no you dumbshit

they must have been stoned when they said they liked his version

cause its so shitty actually

[medusaman1]

Calling people dumbshit . describing a version of a song that your mind can't grasp as shitty and then calling it's singer retarded.....pity you can't keep an intelligent conversation and I'm sorry to bother replying.

[jimmypageisgnarly]

that was great dude!

[nargile10]

nice  man

[nakajaiz]

thanks

[westfield90]

Excellent

[nakajaiz]

Thank you

[keekross]

Simply great playing, 5 stars. One of many amazing McCartney bass lines, and you did justice to it with perfect sound. The Epiphone passes the test with flying colors.

[WOLVOSTONER]

Bro. U rock! Fantastic song, sexy as fuck bass, clear fantastic tone, and bang on playing. Dude. Take a bow! U got me nodding my head to this shit! BIG UP!

[nakajaiz]

Uau ! Thanks a lot !

[ybbob57]

Take it away want to hear you play.........

Very nice....really!

[GuillermoJast]

Muito bom! You really play it very well and you get 5 stars. I have a Behringer Bass V-amp and would like to have your sound. Can you tell me the settings in your V-tone pedal? Appreciate

[nakajaiz]

Opa ! Thanks !

Vc entende português ? Bom, eu não me lembro exatamente como regulei o pedal, mas acho que foi mais ou menos assim:

Presence : 12h / Drive: 1h / Treble: 12h / Bass: 10h / Level: 2h / Blend : 2h.

Mesmo assim, tem a EQ do Logic...

Importante: tocar com palheta !

[Tarkus7]

Great tone, well done!

[ojaihitchiker]

You just taught me to play this tune = THANK YOU! Now I just need to learn to sing and play it at the same time. This may be harder than playing and singing Taxman!

[kmeleon829]

Wow man! Your bass has a very nice warm tone. I love those flatwounds.

This video has inspired me to pick up this genius bass line.

Oh did I mention- You nailed it! Keep up the great work.

[nakajaiz]

Thank you !

[deguerrelasse]

Absolutely perfect and your bass sounds wonderful !!

[nakajaiz]

Thanks !!!

[jdawg2788]

[mojo81]

Since I saw you playing this I bought myself a 2001 Epi Viola. It sounds fantastic with stock pickups.

[Leaveitago]

Nice. This is one of my favorite bass lines too. Paul was a genius and I congratulate for doing an excellent cover of it.

[nakajaiz]

No amp ! I'm using a V-tone pedal (Bass BDI 21 - Behringer).
