wow dude you did it !!!!!!that is breathtaking ,im a guitarist /songwriter i am from tennessee i live in mpls now in 30 years listening to music you are the best bassist ive seen ....im suscribing,that vid was impressive ......i am not easily impressed
Wow..I truly admire your skills. Some people say you are playing it wrong when it fact you are playing it precisely note for note using a different hand position which is actually harder then the way Chris of Muse played it originally. Amazing!!!
anyone who is trying to learn this song by watching this video should know that the whole intro can be easily done on the a and d strings just use your erars and figure it out
I love the way you played this different then Chris. Very orginal and shows your versatility . Very well done and by looking at your other vids you are very well skilled!!!
Great technique, especially the left-hand efficiency. One unique feature of stringed instruments is the ability to play the same, exact phrase using different positioning. No approach is "right" or "wrong"--just different timbre. Many bassists advocate playing open strings, while others prefer stopped strings.
I use both open and stopped strings.
Here's a tip: PURCHASE the music, read it, and adjust the tab to suit your taste. It cost me $5.25. Your time is worth something, no?
@MrFunnypoo ..this is how i play it..it elliminates the rapid movement of your left hand and switching positions...this way it's all played in the exct same spot on different strings and you just rake between each open note
Guitar is good i guess but bass is I THINK is better. it's the first instrument i learned to play and the only song i can play on guitar is Headstrong by Trapt. Oh and i subbed the guy whos playing the bass on this vid ^_^
You called Flea ! I like your style ! Bass can be boring if under used, don't blame your friends, they probably only hear songs with one bass note per bar.
P.S. I hate it when people play songs with one bass note per barr ..
