A perfect video to demonstrate that a bass player doesn't necesarely need a Fender P Bass to achieve Harris tone, It's all in the technique and a little EQ tweaking.
This is really cool. Thanks for putting this up. I am glad you picked Invaders. It is is one of my favorite Maiden songs, to a huge extent because of the bass. Thanks again.
Nicely played, very smooth, as should be. Harris's style is solid, providing rhythm for everyone, but his lines still flow as sleekly as I've ever heard, you do his playing justice, you do.
traslate to italian at english! sei un vero mito! la canzone è perfetta poi penso k qualke ritocchino l'hai fatto ed è veramente bello!! you are a teacher of bass? very very very goood!!! Hi from Italy!!
@4zinger Yo man great playing Steve Harris is my all time favorite bassist. I got one question though, how did u manage to get that bass tone? It sounds just like his tone. I think he uses alot of trebble, idk abt the bass and the mids. Could u help me on this one??
Awesome dude, you killed it! Harry would be proud... For everyone saying your bass should be lower, wrong! With the bass up high you can reach all of the frets more easily, tap, sweep, slap & pop and play scales more easily. This is especially true on a 5 or 6 string...try doing a 5 string sweep above the 12th fret with the bass at your nut sack and tell me it's easier.
The Never-Fail Warwick. Best basses on earth in my opinion. Good form with your fretting, I'm not big on playing over the pick-ups, but everyone has their own style so I'm not down-playing you. Incredible work, keep it up.
two words my friend...fucking awesome

@PKMLshow
You will notice that most Pro Bass players hang their bass this high or higher.
i think its mainly done for slapping but then again in Jazz and Proggresive metal and stuff hanging bass this high is common.
so nerdy? nah i think not altough i hang it lower to.
