[ianidinuse]

[eyeambrown137]

@ianidinuse

its actually a schecter ;)

[HrapovikPlush]

@ianidinuse That's a Schecter bass.

[DynastyPercussion]

I know I'm so going to get burned but.....it kinda sounds like elevator music...I love the bass itself and the sound but the song is kinda funny. =P

The bass playing is the good part is simply what I'm trying to say....I'd rather do some Tool and Mudvayne covers with this. =O

[GinScream]

There are notes?)

[adisharr]

Your technique is far from horrid man - nice job :)  You've got a real good feel for it.

[mundlaut]

wow, thats groovy! very cool! - 5 Stars *****

[bobulibobium]

excellent! nice and groovy, the way it should be

[jzhobo77]

Love the sound of that bass what is it and what kind of amp. You have a great style I like the deep slapping sound you have.

[gkcdrummer]

That's not a weird technique... THAT IS STYLE!!!!

[pallyfan92]

lol agreed what ever works for you, is comfortable and wont cause any problems that prevent you from playing is good technique

[monkybass]

really good

[kk2134]

Looks and sounds great to me. You have better technique then a lot of slap bassists out there. But just for the record you might want to work on how you pluck the strings. Other then that, great job man!

[Delroxorz]

GJ duder. You reminded me how good this song is lul.

[Potarnul]

Excellent! And this comes from a rock-metal fan.

[mountiebassist]

Really good, dude! Check a guy called MarloweDK to see how to nail the solo, though. Those perscussive qunituplets is hard!

[andredj08]

isso num e funk!! soul num o mesmo do q funk e um ritmo totalmente diferente quer funk entao fale de brasil pos o funk ta la!

[samthebassman412]

dude, id say ur technique is fine! long as it sounds great, dont matter i think!

[almatazz]

nice

[ranzeldgreat]

great!!

[Bardensskog666]

very good :)

[rafspeed17393]

ohhh god!!!...

it's realy cool...

[victorbassplayer]

Cool tone!&execution!!!!

[wellhungmoose]

I like how good this bass player is even enough time to scratch his nose, lol.

[eschaton]

The ends justify the means, man. Funny how innovation usually only happens when someone decides to break away from "technique" for the hell of it... Like Steve Brown or Bill Johnson, whichever story you happen to believe.

[mrhippy26]

that was awesome

[Antarath]

That was bloody BRILLIANT!!!

[KingOfPain35]

Sounds good, mate! Keep it up!

[Milossko]

nice coveeer !

[davethebassist13]

I've had that bass for about 2 years now, and I love it, but how in the world do you get such great tone? Strings? Amps? Effects? lol, I kill myself for tone.

[vlandaren]

Hi!!!Very good playing where did you find the music for this? I have been looking for a midi everywhere to convert or some score but alas, to no avail. This really is the best playalong version i have seen done on youtube p.s.

[nkr10]

Excelent cover, and nice slap but i agree with kubalapa. try to relax more your hand, any way.. you have a good tecnique..

by the way, do you have tabs of this?

[bububuvard]

You tell me some hints and advices and ask for tabs?

lol, sad..

[nkr10]

yeah, its just an observation.. he´s better than me, and i need the tabs as up as posible ;)

[xxslap]

sorry guys no tabs

never really got into using them

[Alessio2468]

how is this song called??

[RFDlic]

Rio Funk, it appears on Lee Ritenour's album Rio.

[maty7976321]

Nice Playing!, Funky Bass!!! Do you also love the funky bass rhytmic??!:P

Kinds Regards From Matthijs

[kubalapa]

It was nice, but man try to feel free and relax your right hand. It looks very tight. Practise a lot with hitting fast one note. It will help you to relax your hand. But good for the beginner ;) good luck ;)

[mrjtroy]

nice tone. i have the same bass. what are your tone settings?

[Cuxxo]

where i can get; partiture, tab,, anything of this song? o:

[wxb200]

damn good for "horrid technique"

[nkr10]

Nice slap and nice bass too.. ;)

[ultimabass]

Wow, your fretboard looks really nice. I like it.

Loved your playing too. Lee Ritenour ftw.

How do you say his last name, anyway?

[nkr10]

if it is the same as Renoir, you pronunce it "Ritenua".. i think so 0o

[gatogatitopx1982]

chido carnal grax por el paro.

[divinesalvia]

good work....

[eiphonebassplayer]

would you reccomend this or the stiletto custom and also is there fret dotes on the side of the neck?

[sarkastica2007]

good job

[Pableke]

Good sound... Keep on it man! You are good!

[E7022]

man i also use my right hand like you and it has worked well, it dosnt matter how your technique ids its about sound 5/5

[bassplayingmarc]

you technique isn't horrid you just need better position

[alexflama]

nice.. your technique is not bad,but your position is not good

[adrian480]

Schecter Stiletto elite bass sound so goood, I think I will buy one

[mtaffonso]

Excelent ! Two thumbs up ! Congratulations !

[90DaVinci]

Nice. keep it funkee!!  It's hard to find guys that can stay in the pocket nowadays.

[grae]

smooth mahn, very smooth.

lovely sounding bass and amp/pre amp too!

what you equiped with?

keep it up and take it easy

[aznhardboiledegg]

just out of curiosity, did you do this by ear or sheet music

[xxslap]

ear. it repeats parts a lot.

[ManoNegraCG]

I enjoyed this actually. Well done fella.

[jherandresano]

Your technique doesn't look/sound(?) horrid...

Don't listen to those doubters....

5 stars!

Aded to favorites.

[jherandresano]

Cool!

[zepfan5486]

LISTEN: Don't EVER let anybody tell you your technique sucks. Your bass playing is yours and yours alone. You play it the way you feel it...Fuck anybody who thinks they can "judge" your playing ability. Keep on Funkin' man!

[BadFad2008]

I do agree!!! Besides, he can really play it!!!

[Martin259]

Exactly!! Well said! Everyone has there own style, I Even slap Heavy Metal riffs in Drop A. Its best to play how you want to, Your Playing, your style, Don't let anyone stop you.

[gm1007pa]

Hey, can you make a video where you teach this song, that's would make it a lot easier, some people just play it slower, but nobody has this song on there to learn yet.Can you put on a vid where you can actually see what notes you are playing. Thanks

[funkbasspraise]

wow,not bad actually i was kinda bumpin my head...your techniche is unique...

[Amputecht1]

very good. I dont think your technique is horrid. its very good indeed

[gm1007pa]

Hey.. are you thumbing or are you slapping during the intro? I looks like your thumbing, but it souunds like your slapping.

[xxslap]

all slap

[HALLEUW]

very cool

[gm1007pa]

Hey can you send me the notes you used for tis song please. Thanks, you sound awesome.

[xxslap]

[litlock123]

And that bass, is it the neck through version???? Because if it is the regular bolt-on one, i want it, it sounds amazing!!!!!!! What amp is that to???

[xxslap]

[larrypoland]

[309502854]

[JelteTuinstra]

Nice!!

[plekzy]

[ghking13]

[xDrkest2Unearthx]

[dustitj]

dude you are awsome. If you think your technique is horrid then mine is really bad. Great work!

[sirrenne]

rate cool mate

[jorgeblazer]

nice good job

clean sound u using powertab?

[xxslap]

no i do everything by ear

[1992bassman]

do you really because it you do then thats crazy

[xxslap]

yeah i just learned that way i guess

[JamesBannerBass]

I wish I had learned more things by ear when I had first started, because when you progress technically, people expect you to have the ears to go with it.

Now I just transcribe things I hear on the radio, and some songs by Adam Nitti etc.

By the way your technique is fine, you play the bass however you want, not how someone else tells you to.

J

[BANJO102971]

ur awesome man!!!!!! gud job......

[ghostsclaw]

my god ur slap really is disgusting. lol thats awesome playing though.

[royrand]
