  • 4:00-5:30 that's one thing I don't see much of in most Tool covers on youtube.. attitude. you're the only one of em who doesn't look like a drone while playing and w/o compromising any accuracy. it's kinda silly when I think about it because Justin had so much groove/emotion onstage and rocked the shit out of his bass flawlessly (when I saw them for the 1st time 3 wks ago), and you did justice to both aspects of his style, here. hell yeah... I reallly wanna leave work early right now and go jam

  • Dat bass.

  • hey TOOLbassplayer i've been subbed to your channel for a while and i trust both you and remi to play these tool songs on bass. you've made me wanna play BAD. i'm curious about what affects your using at 1:10 if you are using any (definitely sounds like it) and also when you're going to cover vicarious and parabola (if you havent already). keep playing your notes and style are spot on. SOUNDS AWESOME.

  • @LightOfEon flange and delay :)

  • I need to know where you got your Wal...

  • never expected to watch this on christmas day but here i am... great covers by the way.. love em all, thx for puting em up

  • Seems TOObassplayer is not around anymore...too bad :(

  • When are you going to tab Swamp Song on Bass? I really want to play it.

  • Omg, all of your covers are incredibley well done and badass. Very Nicely done.

  • were did you find the Wal bass , cause i cant seem to find any for sale

  • @SlammingBoudin77

    ...for sale

  • @SlammingBoudin77 walbasses.co.uk

  • nice

    

  • mark bass amps in the background with the mini mark head? im liking it! do correct me if im wrong

  • So, do you actually write any of your own stuff?

  • Yeah boss.

  • looks like a fun song to play

  • How does your direct in work? I mean what are you using?

  • hey man...awesome tones....what effects are you using instead os the distortion in this song???

  • Fuck yeah dude! Sounds great and you're totally into the song. Can I get some of what you're on?

  • Fucking oath. Thats the shit right there. \m/><\m/

  • Comment removed

  • Great job, man :D

  • Slide at 3:58. Glorious

  • 1:10 what type of delay and modulation is???

  • really impresive keep up the good work hope you get more time to get that feeling youre clearly getting wile playing. you feel it. have a nice day. this cover made my day :D

  • Amazing sound you have on that Bass, brother. Reminds me of an old (well...new at the time) Music Man I used to play. Man, I sure wish I had that Bass back...

    You nailed it too...and special props on the strum work. Really clean bro...kudos.

  • hey brad, great cover, i was just wondering what are all the effects u have on for the third verse

  • damn that bass sounds epic

  • damn nice wal haha, great covers too

  • you're confusing your slides with hammer ons @ 5.32. other than that, good job.

  • Have you ever though of covering MESHUGGAH? lol

  • You fuckin nailed it bro! I wish you were my neighbor.

  • When you play the part starting at 2:16 and ending at 3:07 do you use a distortion of some sort or is that just the crunch of the Wal? When I go to play that I use a distortion but in some venues it sounds too harsh. I was just wondering. (I play on a Stingray by the way.)

    Oh yeah, fantastic playing! All of your covers are superb!

  • ooh man. Tool are just, AMAZING. The bass is unbelievable. WOW. 1 of my most under rated bands. I used to love them, but now I play Bass, I appreciate them so much more

  • completely amazing cover, really helped me learn the song. What pedals do you u use for the high up parts and the part during the guitar solo where you bend on one note like at 5:11? tyvm

  • amazing cover, really helped me learn this a lot but what pedal do u use for the part thats higher up? ty

  • fuck you all he's bad ass

  • What are you using to record your vids? I'm wanting to put up some covers myself but i can never get a really clear sound like you do, its either distored or the levels are totally off! An answer would be greatly appreciated! :)

  • Tool (and your cover videos) have really inspired me to start playing bass. If I started playing for the first time tomorrow, realistically how many years will it take me to be able to play to this level, if I practice 3-4 times a week? Assuming I have average natural skill and no special talent at it...

  • Man, you have the best comebacks against haters. Keep it up, love your covers

  • man... i couldn't take my eyes one sec... pretty awesome! thanks!

  • This is a great video! Jambi must have one of the most epic bass lines to any song ever... incredible. Just out of curiosity though, what kind of bass is that in the background? It looks very identical to my Peavey T40 (same color and everything)

  • What echo effect are you using?

  • You are a wonderful player.

  • Whoa. A Wal! Don't those things cost fortunes? Damn things have an excellent tone.

  • is this a mark 2 or 3?

  • @befrankis Mark 2. The MK III has a longer upper horn on the body and a gumby looking headstock ;)

  • 5 dislikes? lol

    That was bad ass.

    

  • what kind of distortion pedal do you have. it sounds awesome

  • I love this cover it makes my fucking day every time i watch it

  • i'm loving everything about this video! sweet freaking wal bass - your tone is spot-on.

  • Damn that bass is beautiful. Good playing, too.

  • Love that sound dude! Hands down best cover I've seen..

    

  • Love that sound dude! Hands down best cover I've seen..

  • I'm gonna look like a total idiot, but what does "line in" mean?

  • @timmy25able plugging straight into your computer after the effects chain or amp head.

  • I was listening to your bass while I was playing my guitar... and I when I was headbanging I suddenly realized that you were headbanging too! TOOL's music it's so awesome!

  • the bassline that starts at 1:07 is the best

  • what kind of facings? i''ve been thinking of getting a wal mk1, prefer the 21 fret vs 24, but i like the facings on yours

  • this is real good man!

  • 4:47 I jizzed

  • lol its funny how u play it exactly like justin and ppl say its wrong i lol when i see those comments

  • DAMN my eyes! good job dude

  • Best Jambi cover I ever seen.

  • I'm pretty sure at 5:19 the riff stays the same, unless you changed it on purpose. Did you?

  • Love the way you play (:

    I'm learning how to play the bass, and watch you makes me want to try harder

    ps. sorry my bad english -.-

  • Amazing cover of an amazing song. Great work!

  • This sounds so cool. Especially the intro, you inspire me!

  • Saw tool a few weeks ago at Big Day Out, they improvised on all their songs including this one, it was spectacular. 

  • Fucken' gnarly tone!

  • You really remind of how much i want to learn to play bass but my dad wont let me :(

    Also, bass is WAAAAAAY cooler than Guitar xD!

    Expecially in Tool :3

  • what pedel(s) do you use for the distortion?

  • Bloody amazing sound, i love the Wal bass itself, but apparently i can't afford one myself lol:) Anyway Great videos man. Don't You have any band stuff on YT?

  • man i love how u just rip that bass line right up at 1:07 man, i fuckin love that bass line of the song, good job man.

  • does justin have all of his tone and volume knobs cranked up all the way?

  • That bass sounds amazing. Great cover.

  • You and your dude play very well, my Ishtar bless you with head from 20 virgins!!!!

  • that would be great if you and remiii did an album together or somethin...

  • great cover man... sick of people saying shit about great covers

  • @brogetoffmyass LOL. Dude. I don't care. Good for Remi. He is a good friend. Remi is also single. I am married with kids and barely have time to play. Thanks for such a nice comment, though. I started this in 2006 when I had a lot more time.

  • @TOOLbassplayer don't bother with the trolls

  • @TOOLbassplayer Actually, your covers are more accurate than Remiiii's but he's good nontheless. Don't want to discredit you guys cause you both are talented. If only i had your effect pedals xD

  • @TOOLbassplayer That's no excuse to forget music dude....no excuse...........jk..........b­ut still never forget music :]

  • @TOOLbassplayer lol, the point is cos your are better than remis, he miss even the pitch in many songs, ofc that doesn't mean his covers are bad

  • @brogetoffmyass . I bet you do it better, don{t you? OK then shut the f%$& up!!!

  • @brogetoffmyass wow what a amazingly imature thing to say

  • @brogetoffmyass fuck off

    both are equally as amazing

  • @brogetoffmyass are you retarded? remi mistakes even parabola

  • it would be sweet if you would start having a pedal cam? =D

    i appreciate your videos very much by the way.

  • i dont think you got the part at 1:10 right

  • @44eelz except....I did :)

  • @TOOLbassplayer

    Sorry but I'm pretty sure 44eelz is right. It's close, but doesn't really sound like it...

  • @44eelz the notes are right, but the rhythm is kinda off, not bashing ya man. lol

  • Is that distortion in the beginning? What pedal is it if I may ask? Cheers!

  • I've been looking at getting a chorus pedal for my bass and I was wondering what you would recommend since a majority of Justin's riffs have some type of chorus effect. I thought about the Boss Chorus/Ensemble but wasn't to sure about getting it.

  • @bassplayer4Christ justin uses the boss ce-5 chorus ensemble

  • The delay part is crazy man and you nailed it...cheers!!

  • alright man how much for that bass i just gotta have it so decent ill pay up big money lol

  • ur videos r the best, best covers around in terms of sound/video quality and all very well done skillwise, bravo

  • awesome fucking job dude!!

  • You are using an interface are you not? If then what kind?

  • Great stuff man, all your vids.

  • have you ever wondered if justin chancellor himself has ever seen your videos? I mean im sure he would be impressed but i just wonder what he would think watching. oh and btw i love that you start rockin out during the song hahah

  • You are one bad ass mofo brother. I am very impressed. What distortion pecal are you using. I am about to buy one and yours like exactly what I am looking for.

  • You are one bad ass mofo brother. I am very impressed. What distortion pecal are you using. I am about to buy one and yours like exactly what I am looking for.

  • i noticed in a video with Justin's bass tech, he uses a Red Witch Titan delay pedal which has 3 delay modules that can be set in parallel or series, justin has his set in series to get that awesome delay effect

  • @towguy82 yes but he is only "experimenting" with those pedals...I guess he is messing around with them for the new album. However he uses the Boss DD-3 as his main delay pedal and on the recording of 10000 days. ;)

  • @TOOLbassplayer he is using more pedal effects for their new album? im happy. i also read an article with him talking saying how this album will be worth the wait. and they decided if they really want this one to be awesome then we are going to have to wait a little longer than usual.

  • @towguy82 Hey do you by any chance remember where you saw this video? I'm intrigued lol

  • @towguy82 He uses a DD-3 dude, if you paid any attention to that vid you'd know the seperate board the Red Witch is on is a 'play' pedalboard

  • Comment removed

  • 5:31 Cool!

  • Whats better than a hot moaning girl ? Right! A Wal Bass !

  • awesome:) very nice sound

  • Whats that effect you use to manipulate the bass during the jambi solo? I can see you hitting a pedal or maybe im wrong,

  • you are a bass god

  • @rangerofdoom noooo justin and paul are the bass gods he is simply the messenger

  • unbelievable cover my friend. I love how much you feel that groovy part at 3:15ish

  • Only want to say TXS mate, your great.

  • Epic, im going to start figuring this out from your video.. you helped me with vicarious to so... thanx!

    <3

  • Epic, gonna start figuring it out from your vid, you helped me alot with vicarious too!

    <3

  • Incredible...how long have you been playing? And I noticed you look a little reserved when you play...if I could play as well as you I'd be going nuts...probably add some jumps and stuff in, lmao. Great job, hope I can play as well as you some day.

  • Which overdrive pedal do you actually use bro?

  • props for getting nearly dead on with Chancellor's tone and effects.

  • How do you get that sound on the "solo"? What effects/settings?

  • Sexy bass, awesome cover, 5 STARS. :D Best Tool bass "coverist" on Youtube. :)

  • zzzzzzzzzz tool is a very boring band

  • @Satiaraha

    GET OUT

  • anyone wanna pick my jaw up from the floor?.... please?...

  • Comment removed

  • This is one of the best bass cover video's I have ever seen! I mean I'm almost speechless over how fucking accurate this is! Dude, seriously this is awesome! Love the tone, you done really well to get it so close to that of the recording without having to use 3 different channels! surely you used more than just a Sansamp DI to get those effects in?? Do you knwo where I can find reasonably accurate tabs? what tabs i do find are not particuarly good! FUCKING AWESOME MAN!

  • What's your opinion on Johnson Bass guitars? I have one. And I like the way it feels in my hands and it is nice to play. I would like to get a Fender Jazz bass soon.

  • sweet

  • fucking beast

  • not only are you sweet at bass. but your camera kicks ass..

  • I don't know what you used to record this video, but it was pretty streetwise because drum bass sounds stronger even than in CD. I guess you wanted to assert sound of your guitar ;)

  • dude, holy poo-balls this is awesome..

  • I am actually curious, what do the settings on your equalizer look like?

  • What program do you use to record?

  • Yeah!

    Fucking nice, keep it up man, you`ll be greater.

  • Very, very nice job man.

  • your bass is sick, nice job dude

  • Any chance you'd post a "how to" on the bass "solo" with all that delay?

  • how does he play so accurately? u reckon he tabs this shit himself? would love to find out where he gets it from if he doesnt...

  • he probably uses his ear dude. im usin mine

  • @pkpkpipi Look up "tooltabs", he tabs them i'm pretty sure.

  • God man you are incredible. I watch these videos to give me a push when I get tired of practicing. I started playing bass because of the Tool songs being so bass driven.

  • lol i know the feeling man im going to buy a bass this weekend because of tool

  • hey man where did you get that bass?.....

  • I Would Kil Somebody For That Bass...

  • @TheAPC91 Run!!

  • @TheAPC91 hopefully not him!

  • @TheAPC91 same here

  • for the most part its 9/8 but in several parts goes in 4/4, incredible cover BTW

  • is it safe to say i love all tool albums

  • 1:07 - 1:56 when you have your face down you kinda look like maynard

  • ...um...dude, you definetly didnt compliment the guy:D:D:D maynard is a good vocalist but definetly on the bad side of ugly

  • lol

  • DUDE! ITS SO HEAVY!

  • The best part of the song has to be at 4:00 min. it is just mind blowing.

  • What settings do you have on the Guyatone WR-3?

  • i think lateralus is better, with schism, parabola, lateralus and disposition, but i love 10000 days nonetheless

  • Are you kidding? 10,000 days is the best album ever--- and Lateralus was f***ing A-mazing!

  • I agree, 10,000 days is my fav tool album

  • That is a really nice bass

  • Nice job with the FX ...."Shine on forever"!
