The Staple Singers I'll Take You There Bass Cover

[jacqueg1]

how long did it take to learn that? nice...

[davecg2]

@jacqueg1 Thanks! And it didnt take too long to learn the notes. The timing however, I'm still trying to master. Biggest thing to remember is to lay back and play very relaxed. Thanks for watching!

[KevinBKlein]

Rock that bass !!!!!111

[davecg2]

@KevinBKlein thanks kevin, checked out your channel and dig your vids. lots of energy and you can tell your having a lit of fun. rock on man.

[GryffindorGurl]

[davecg2]

@GryffindorGurl thanks danielle! did i ever get these tabs for you? my memmory kind sux. just let me know if not and i will.

[mello4901]

did u make this up your self or do you have like midi file

[davecg2]

@mello4901 not sur ei know what you mean. I basically just played to the song and recorded the bass through a stealth plug which lets me record directly to my pc. Then i took the video and the bass recording and combined them along with the original song. Then i just tried to mix it well enough to hear my bass over the orignal without making it clip. not sure if i answered the question you were asking, if not just ask again ;)

[mello4901]

or true thanks

[KevinBKlein]

Very Cool !!!!bassman!!! Very Cool!!!!

[tsmoky28]

Hi Davecg2, I've been trying to learn this song as you play but I'm having a little difficulty when play the higher notes because the video is not as clear and you're moving faster. Could you give the notes or play it again slower? Thanks!

[davecg2]

@tsmoky28 ill shoot you a message with the tab i used, it has the bridge ot solo or whatever its called tabbed out exactly how i play it. Im actually coming up on 3 years playing bass next week so i was thinking of redoing this one and express yourself since theyre my most popular. if i get around to it ill try to step closer to the cam for the solo for ya ;). make sure you let me know if you end up posting a cover of this one, id love to check it out. and thanks for checkin out my videos!

[babydollatl]

@davecg2 you are welcome hun keep up the good work :)

[kmusikk92]

PERFECT! ! !

[davecg2]

@kmusikk92 thanks a lot!

[mrdak]

Play the C using your little finger, rather than your index finger. Play all the A's open, rather than fretted on the E string. This keeps you in one position the whole time, making each note easier to play. The F in particular.... ;)

Trust me.... It'll improve the groove too.

[davecg2]

@mrdak rock on, ill keep that in mind. thanks for checkin out my vid.

[mcentertain]

That´s it!
