[AlphaPegasii]

@blackbolt66a

Don't think it was the 'I'm gonna give him some' look... it was more like 'OK dude, enjoy yourself, I'll look out the window. Wake me when you are done'

[Aspartamebraintumor]

The bass tracks are mixed well

she has a awesome voice ....

one of the best summertime covers :P

[orsogigiocco]

Really great. One of the best summertime I've heard.

Wonderfull bass guitar, wonderfull voice...

Bravi, form Italy

[MrSam123ni]

See, if we had more people like this guy we wouldn't need fucking guitarists...

[rob6666]

@MrSam123ni As a guitarist I must say thank the lord that there aren't more people like this guy then. He is pretty amazing though.

[Crishaana]

Amazing !

[Geeljasjes]

Do you own a Chapman Stick?

You'd be phenomenal on that.

[acaash]

@Geeljasjes

I agree completely! Get a chapman stick Mr. Owen!

[dustmiter567]

that was incredible.

[00fallon]

Good stuff however I feel the bass parts were pre recorded as demonstrated during the bass solo.

[beacon776]

@00fallon Wow - make sure before you post cause that was a stupid comment. He is using hammer ons to play both parts. On the 7 string you can get the higher end like he is playing and the low lows. Dude is great and she has a beautiful voice. I just hate it when people are this good, share their talent, and then have to fade stupid comments. Ignore them and keep sharing with us!

[00fallon]

@beacon776 hey you,that was no 'stupid comment' I made.It was an observation and not a derogitory one.Of course he is tapping the lows etc,but when he takes his solo,he is fingering the high notes and only the high notes,the  low bass notes are clearly still sounding but not being played at the same time so it MUST be pre recorded.Look closer and pay attention while in class.I hate it when people do not take the time to establish the facts before throwing their toys out the pram.

[beacon776]

@00fallon Ok my last comment cause this is honeslty a waste of time. Please understand that when someone posts a video of their talent its rude to make an uneducated comment that sure did sound like you "Figured Out" it was all pre recorded bass. The point of this instrument is to be able to play both parts. During the solo he picked the bass line with his thumb. Im not going to debate this anymore because I'm right and you should really just learn to enjoy watching talent and then say thank you

[00fallon]

@beacon776 I don't know what his bass is tuned to;not important however but when he plays the solo his thumb IS anchored and the low notes ARE pre recorded.Third fret on lowest string is the lowest note played.Perhaps a comment from the author would be welcomed.I enjoy talent but I also question things that seem impossible and implaudable and the piece is authentic until the solo.I'm right and then some.

[smokinpuddlez702]

@00fallon who gives a fuck if the low notes are pre recorded? You think a band with one guitar player doesn't pre record the rhythm guitar when he lays a solo over it?

[Bassmanfallon]

@smokinpuddlez702 I dont give two fucks if he recorded an orchestra behind the tune;I'm merely stating the fact that the bass low end was pre recorded.

[smokinpuddlez702]

@Bassmanfallon no, you didn't merely state it was pre-recorded. You made some lame comment about the authentication of this just because it was pre-recorded.

[Bassmanfallon]

@smokinpuddlez702 and what is 'lame' about stating that not all you see is authentic? Read the threads,people really believe it was a 'one take' demonstration...I dispelled that belief.Whats your point anyway? Why are you taking pops at me for proving this to be a bit of a spoof?

[smokinpuddlez702]

@Bassmanfallon Cause it's not a spoof. It's just like looping rhythm guitar when they go into a solo, like I already said. Nothing is "spoofed"

[00fallon]

@smokinpuddlez702 hey,I stated that the bassist,who is unquestionably talented,cheated a bit by soloing over a recorded bass line.It throws into question how much of the whole piece was actually prerecorded.Look,I can do that...probably you could aswell with the aid of technology but did Jaco ever lean on this to portray his talent? Did Stanley Clarke ever put stuff up on Youtube which was later questionable? The finished article is not honest.

[huginandmunin]

@00fallon say theoretically he did loop or even pre-record whatever you claim he did.. who cares? just listen and enjoy.

[Bassmanfallon]

@huginandmunin I care about authenticity my friend and more so lack of therin.

[FerrilEwok]

pure magic right here

[emixolydian]

just play a fucking guitar, jesus.

[nikklazz]

@emixolydian Whaaaaaat? :O...not really the same thing there you idiot...

[emixolydian]

@nikklazz When someone ceases to play the bass for what it's meant (basslines) and guitar-esque chord arrangements it just becomes sonically pointless to play it. In this video almost the entire thing could be played easier on a guitar, and it would sound better since basses sound like clanky cock shit when they have 4+ strings

[nikklazz]

@emixolydian You sound like your mouth is full of your alcoholic fathers cock

[emixolydian]

@nikklazz fathers

lolumad?

[blitzkrieg414]

Oh shit! Can you feel the groove?? The girl has a very cool voice, and the bassist, WOW! He's on fire!!!!

Fuck those morons who will give a negative comment on this!

[InBy9OutBy5]

This went right to my favorites.

[sladdin07]

Brilliant talent!  Love it!

[trashmancrashman]

J'ai régardé plusieurs vidèos , je ne le comenterai pas toutes. Pour resumer , je constate d'après les votes que vous êtes pas toujours appreciés à la valeur maximale en raison des petits erreurs , moi je ne judge pas après ça ... c'est dommage qu'on regarde plus loin que ça je trouve.

Pour moi vous êtes magnifiques, (je viens de vous decouvrir ce soir en navigant)

et je suis très content.

Bonne continuation et merci.

[discobassgroove]

it's a nice interpretation for bass, good work. although Janis Joplin is so much better.

[MrPeranz]

awesome!

[KevinRexrod]

This bass can be used as a solo intrument as well, I wonder what the tuning order is on a 7-string besides de regular E-A-D-G for a regular four and B-E-A-D-G on a five string.

[COBHC279]

i think 7 strings are tuned to F#BEADGC

[schubbmaster]

most of the 7-strings i played were tuned to BEADGCF. the f#-string doesnt make any sense in my opinion but i saw your tuning also a few times.

[misanthroposy]

The tuning on this bass is BEADGCF

[samkeen]

I tune mine all in fourths, BEADGCF. I think this is fairly common.

[maplerrr]

alguien sabe como se llama la chica que canta?

[pufifa]

zillion times better than those farts of bumble bee

[OrbiliusMagister]

After seeing his two handed tapping.... I'd see him switching to a full fledged Chapman Stick. That would save him a lot of awkward moves and would give a much broader musical range to unleash his taste for improvisation.

[simonejp91]

fuck tht

[apollodude217]

that or a harpejji.

[starvoiter]

Both are are perfect :)

[benestwice]

Voilà que la basse qui était l'instrument le plus facile de l'orchestre devient un instrument à "très forte concentration". Fini de mater les filles sur la piste de danse...

[NinjaBurglar]

the 7 string bass is primarily made for jazz

[UnforgivingCritic]

now i know where a 7-string could be properly used, in a cheezy-jazz jam like this one.,, oh yeah baby, turns me on.. :)

[Mediterraneanblue9]

Awesome musicmanship, but he needs to grow out his bangs.

[Synsacrus]

Pretty sexy jammin on the bass there. Pretty tasty.

[ftfrito]

JESUS! amazing! EVERYTHING IS AMAZING, NICE BASSPLAYING, NICE VOICE... sry for caps but im still stunned...

[tarzan420212]
