Main Bass Line for Hysteria By Muse

[overdriven77]

hate that song, but love the bass line!

[RobBrooksMusic]

Check out a cover of this on my channel, I spent a long time tweaking the effects to get the bass just right!

[KeTeVemCovers]

Great job !!1!

[christophermx4]

Good job.

[UnbreakableG]

@NidyBass wow, you must really be an idiot lol. who takes the time to notice things like that? get a life bro lol

[therealtony]

Nice bass guitar. Same as mine. And I do the same cover lol.

[Dudemansweet420]

Lol when I see a bass players fingers go like that, I think of legs running to the beat xD Anyone do the same?

[iadans]

@NidyBass

You're right. You caught me. I totally faked the whole thing to gain youtube fame. Now that you've seen through my ruse my budding music career has been cut short. I hope you're happy, now I'm going to have to live on Alpo dog food and the toppings left in pizza boxes now.

[JollyJunkie]

Yeah, i can finally play it :D

Though my pointerfinger really hurts after playing this for a while, probably because I play bass for only half a year

[TheRolfieboy]

Do you know if the SRX 595 is painted at the back of the neck?

[BCarey2293]

Hysteria is actually a very easy bass line. It follows the same pattern throughout the three main parts and once you learn it you can practice it and perfect it.

[Mant2core]

This proves how hard a bassline it is.

[JoeyJope]

Quality video here :D

But i'm just confused you make it look like theres so much effort playing this song like your going up to fret 5 D: which is stretching and making it harder to play i say you also start on sting 3 and i start on string 2 when i play it xD and i only ever play it on string 1 2 and 3 but your going to 4 if i see correctly XD great video but i think that the way you play it is more challenging than the way i do but great job :D *thumbs up*

[Raffinix666]

yeah awesome playing dude

great bass ;)

[ricardothemaster]

i've never had any trouble with the left hand for this its the right, i allways have to use a pick, any tips?

[iadans]

total cop out answer, but id say just a matter of practice! its tiring, but you just gotta keep at it for a few weeks to strengthen up the muscles. It might be your doing to too hard, in which sometimes turning the volume up but picking more lightly will help alot.

[ringenesherre3]

Very well played but a bit too much noise :P

[Garfield4317]

You made it look easy.

[wolsten90]

it is

[RevengeGoose]

it really is

it's played just hammering on the notes off an open string. don't thumbs down this dude

[iadans]

Well, guess Ill jump in since its my video, but my comment is that even if something is easy, it can be condescending to others to boldly say so.

[bigdaddyshit]

@Garfield4317 its fuckin easy

[Garfield4317]

@bigdaddyshit Don't be a pretentious cock about it.

[MazurEg]

nice bass

[joakomako]

how much is that bass

[iadans]

theyve been discontinue in a decent number of places, I got mine for 600 at a shop brand new, Ive seen them as low as 350-400 however.

[joakomako]

thanks

[flipsiderole]

i have 2 questions regarding..i have the same four stringer..but action is just two wide..how to adjust the action..plus what is t he difference between 5 and 4 stringer..is 5 easier..or what

[iadans]

Im not sure what you mean by the action being "two wide".... but the action is adjusted with a hex key by adjusting the truss rod which is accessible at the head of the guitar. The difficulty level between playing a 5 string and 4 string isnt much different, its just a matter of adjustment, the 5 string has a Low B string,in addition to the standard EADG arrangement.

[Vaellu]

Ace! I'm thinking about getting one of those basses, how would you rate it? This song is one of my favourites to play too

[nicoflea123]

this is cool

try attacking the strings harder

[jiggyrules]

[Krust217]

sick! that was pretty awsome man

[hardrocker93]

chris uses a EHX russian big muff

[ulyssessamson]

hey, does chris from muse use distortion for this song?

[iadans]

I believe that distortion is used, if not... then Im not sure how the tone is achieved.

[ulyssessamson]

I also heard that he uses some kind of synthesiser(not sure the correct spelling)

Btw, I like ur bass guitar

I'm sure you are a talented bassist

[iadans]

Yeah, I dont know that much about his bass playing, I just liked the line for Hysteria

thanks for your kind words

[fatkarim]

ah okay!! i like your distortion effect it seems like in the original song

[fatkarim]

the distortion effect is coming from the GK amp? or from a effect pedal

[iadans]

the distortion is from a Digitech overdrive pedal.... not that great, but it works. The amp is not GK, the amp is a yorkville XM200 combo. The GK is simply a 2x10 extension cabinet.

[Kurisublack]

Very good man, I give you five.

[hybridtraffic]

sweet..........

[drmontero]

haha, nice job man
