Tool Stinkfist bass part

[Volcanistry]

When did using a pick like Justin become a crime, who cares what bass it is. I would always use a pick when i played tool and i would only play tool on my warwick

[FleshStarvingBass]

Oh Warwick Thumb NT 4 string with a pick ? Sorry but thats a crime. I respect good players using pick, but this.. no. I have myself Warwick Thumb NT 5 string and play Tool stuff using heavy fingerpicking / nail-slapping technique.

Don't want to be a bitch (and I know you think I am bitch) but to repeat myself, using pick on Thumb bass is a crime.

[smileyman455]

Which one of your testicles did you have to sell to buy that bass? Lucky bastard...lol

[moraleSoad]

that bass is very awesome XD that model is versatil and very docile "I like for the bass" xDD

[mundanejane550]

You're good!

[Headbanger9000]

Nice Thumb Bass!!!

[trafficjam10]

you need more energy dude.......yeah it was all correct and everything but it seems like you're just not really into it.

[ohnehose]

that warwick is sexy

[DLI848]

how much did you pay for that bass?

[kazumaslave]

Great cover, man!

[DemaApproved]

Right..! :)

[DemaApproved]

Justin came after undertow.. He composed Aenima with Tool..

[cheezburger45]

@DemaApproved Actually Paul composed a few songs like H, Aenema ,and Pushit and then he left.

[supergolie999]

Your tone is amazing!!!!!

[MELOMACHINE]

Good stuff bro!

[T00Lology100]

Great playing

[T00Lology100]

Jesus this guy have ants in his pants

[hungrymouths]

@T00Lology100 lol

[benthughes]

@T00Lology100 Not ants in the pants. That's the "I'm trying to get my Warwick Thumb into a comfortable playing position" dance. Trust me ;) .

[Blavits]

the only bad thing is that now i hav to kill you and take your bass. nice warwick you lucky bastard

[cenyan13]

@Blavits i have the same bass but i wish i had a wal like chancellor :(

[nowootno]

That (Warwick) Thumb looks delicious.

[TheLordSethonan]

That pick hating is just stupid. I mean...it just gives the bass another sound, you can't play everything with a pick and not everything with the fingers...it would just be too "uncolored" for anyone. Even us guitarrist use finger picking once in a while...even with distortion...it just a way to look for a "sound"...

[cenyan13]

i play with both... i mean for tool songs you just cant get that crunching sound without one.

[Aplestialito]

somehow... it just dosent feel even close....

[chemicalx420]

This is actually Paul's bass line. Paul D'Amour was the original bassist for Tool.

[facedspaced]

yeah except Justin was the bassist for Aenima

[xyogidmtbanana]

paul played some songs for the Aenima album, such as stinkfist

[jaededify]

yeah but he left before they finshed the album this song was on was finsished

[spl100]

Stinkfist, Eulogy, Pushit and AEnima were all recorded with Paul.

[twisted21bassist]

Paul was with Tool when they worked on the demos for these songs, its justin playing on the album but Paul wrote most of it.

[hexlock]

How come you dont use your fingers for this song?

[victorgtz]

Because Justin Chancellor(Tool's bassplayer) plays it with a pick. That and Tool's music is meant to be played with a pick.

[tigeraven2112]

fucking THANK YOU! great cover by the way, Tool is my favourite band, im also a bassist :D

[victorgtz]

No problem dude. I'm just fucking tired of pick haters. And this guy is good. I think pick haters need to either get a good argument against picks or simply shut up.

[tigeraven2112]

agreed :)

[runamuck420]

Hey Chiasson65, i cant see the headstock...is that a dean sledgehammer 4? i really want to get me one of them, send me a message if ya can and let me know if im right, and how you like it if you dont mind. Nice playing also.

[bassgsr200]

That is a warwick thumb. It is about $3,000 more than the dean. But you get your money's worth.

[harrymanback4]

nice man

[cblinkdude182]

Is it just me or does this guy need to adjust the action a little bit... dragging those lows... besides that awesome job!

[chiasson65]

ya i agree it's a tad buzzy......

[Deathmaker2354]

mmmmm...Warwick delicious.

[ylordjanitor]

best tab on the internet right here hah

[KristianWGeorge]

That's one pretty bass right there. Great song too.

[Wirelessbum]

I think that Justin is better than Paul

[ToolBassist]

Justin did not write Stinkfist, it was Paul D'Amour who left Tool before Justin joined (during the production of AEnima but did not write Stinkfist). D'Amour used a Rickenbacker so you can not compare a Wal to this Wawrick. Nice cover by the way i dig your rig.

[kolektiv7]

D'Amour was booted. That came out of Maynard's mouth.

[TheJesusQuintana]

Really? That is new info-The members of Tool and D'Amour from the info I got always say that his leaving the band was amicible

[spaden2112]

I believe Paul used a Rickenbacker :)

[ToolBassist]

I believe you cant read or interpretate text.

[Aces2High3]

You spelled interpret wrong while accusing me of not being able to read or "interpretate" text. Nice.

[TheJesusQuintana]

lol nice comeback---

[Wirelessbum]

Yup. I want to know why they kicked him out. I thoguht he was good in their album: Undertow. But, Justin is still friggin' awesome.

[harrymanback4]

just look at the transformation of the band, they went from an angry raw band to an art rock, progressive, alt metal band and justin chancellor was a key factor in their transformation

[cenzor]

amen

[potofgrass]

As ture as that is, i believe they may have gone in the same path if they kept paul. justin didnt write anything for them until they were half way done with Ænima, and that album is when the started to go that direction, all starting with what paul wrote stinkfist eulogy h. and pushit.

[harrymanback4]

yea man i know what you mean but i read in the Tool magazine that paul was released, he didnt quit because he was "holding them back" in the writing process which may mean that he wasnt writing up to the caliber that they wanted there new music to evolve into

[potofgrass]

lol, "The Book of Tool"? i got one too, and it says the band was getting bigger than he wanted or something like that.

[harrymanback4]

yes that too, they were getting bigger than he was comfortable with.

[charliegrs]

hey i just watched one of your smiths cover, and now this. diversity rules!

[nudgey01]

Thanks man. I've found this difficult to follow off bass tabs, but watching you and following the tabs has made the job soooooo much easier.

Great job.

[hawksfan242]

i have been trying to play this song and i can get the timing but u nailed it man great job

[zaneknight]

lol this was the first song i learned

[fingersmcoy]

ha! finally, someone who hits the open high d and lets it ring during the second parts of the verse. kick ass

[Dertygian]

Very nice. How long you been playing? I just started in July... been only able to work in 15 minutes a week in practicing, but I'm getting there, LOLOLOL! Old lady and apartments... noise=cops!

[Romulan07]

I can't decide if Tool sounds better on Chancellor's bass or a Warwick.

Life has such hard choices. D+

[spaden2112]

Justin uses a Wal, which is > War any day.

[Romulan07]

Lies! That growl is sexy. ^_^

[youknowyourrite1]

both sound great.but i also do think wals sound better though.that's just IMO,i don't mean to offend

[cnlnet]

Hey what are you doing around 2:50. Its hard to see. Are you doing 0 2 3H4 4 5 6H7 ?

[chiasson65]

0-2-0-3-5-0-5-7--------------

[falcon45ca]

haha, takes some fiddling to get her to sit right eh?

I've got a cort curbow 5 like that...pain in the ass to sit & play...to short a l.horn

[Mase326]

[Eejers45]

Its a Warwick Thumb im pretty sure

[0okie]

Mmmm, you have better tabs than I do lol. Is that a Dean Bass? It sounds wonderful! Great job!

[WalClaypool]
