like 666snwprelyT said... there really isnt ONE thing wrong with this video. youre an amazing bass player. and i hope that i can play that well some day in the distant future. you fucking rule dude.
man, also, can anyone answer this to me, how in hell do i get an epiphone les paul bass to sound heavy? no matter what, it always sounds jazzy and it's garbage for metal
The verse directly after the first solo in the front actually seems a little more difficult than the solo just because of the complex string skipping and finger picking dynamics.
It actually IS more difficult, but a lot of people go about only learning the intro's solo because it's fast and therefore SOUNDS more complex... to the untrained eye and ear.
Quade64 -> I hate the myth about ammount of strings determening your level of musicianship... Ammount of strings determines your note range, not your skill. Some people find extended range basses more difficult than regular basses just because they get lost between the strings/forget them/etc.
Uhm, You say it doesn't determien your skill however you then say people don't play extended range basses bcause they struggle. Which would imply lack of skill.
Don't get me wrong I understand what you mean, nearly all of the greatet bassisst played 4 strings, and anyone who thinks 5 and 6 strings make you more skilled is an idiot (I personally play 7 but hey I'm into experimentation haha)
great job dude, i've been playing for a while but i'm just getting in to tapping, i'm more of a groove player but i'm expanding my horizons. what you playin on? any tips? are you just tapping out arpeggios or scales or just doing runs by ear?
and 9 and 10 if you're willing to go custom. there was a 14 being built a couple years back, but the builder mysteriously vanished from the internet shortly before completion. =\
I think that the volume is simply to demonstrate his playing. He's showing off his ability to play the song, which might need to be turned up with the technicallity of this music. Necrophagist's music is extremely technical, and the bass might need to be turned up in this scenario to show just how technical it really is. Horns up, though. I agree with you on how this guy rocked!
