Cupid's Dead - Extreme (Bass guitar)

[65BUSH]

ahaha whos the idiot that said picks sound better than fingers..wow all the high pitched sounds when he gets on the higher strings is because of the pick, he did an amazing job but if he would have used fingers it would have sounded more bassy instead of trebely thats why most professional bass players use picks unless they are aiming for a higher sound like ska music

[scotster92391]

i meant fuck yea

[Slapugo]

great job ! keep on groovin'

[PrecognitionAbductor]

perfect.

5/5

great job man

[morso88]

dude....this is perfection...but....did you learn it using tabs or else?if yes...could you tell me where can i find them?'cos many of them are wrong...thx man...

[rebeccamykitten]

wow, youre really good!

[tchatcho66]

Clean sound... very good... dont listen venez123, the sound stay better in shows without fingers... go go go

[benjaminseeliger2]

really great tone and great performance... you rarely see bassists playing that cool stuff

[venez123]

use your fingers dud , is more pro

[svenmikael]

It's a pick on all the extreme recordings and albums. I thought he did it well, pick or not.

[qasdwer]

Yeah...Not really.

It just depends on which way comfier for you.

[DrCoogeePhd]

Damn, if only people knew how bloody hard it is to play the Fender Precision (or probably any electric bass) as well as you do!!!

[GroundhogGuru]

That's a Fender Jazz.

[shinjiyasuno]

You should do this on guitar.

[T3hbassmasta]

MORE BASS COVERS

[kirkbyla]

superb where did you start

[foyazzo]

is the bass tune DADG ???

[xilefrentuel]

In this song its Eb - Ab - Db - Gb.

[puentetrebol]

muy bueno man ace cuanto tocas???

igyal tenes los re instrumentos suertudo!!:)

[Incantationist]

holy shit dude that is some crazy skills there...dude your my hero

[subsonicbassist]

Great tone and nice pick funk! Bass players do it deeper!

[BungleMoogly]

Good lad! Awesome!

[3MS33]

i remeber i tried out a bass one day. it felt lke the strings were a foot apart, nice playing

[Moik22]

good job!

[L0wEnd]

amazing sound and nice playing !

[xzxz619]

HWo the hell wants a fucking bass?

[T3hbassmasta]

everyone who doesnt want to listen to an AM radio

[xiz90]

Superb! Love it!

[Munkybarz]

Bravo! I had forgotten how much fun this song is, nicely done, great playing. I posted it too, have a look. Take care, -Barz

[DudeKid99]

SWEET playing, nice bass, how long have you been playing bass?

[lefrash]

well played! that song really suits pick playing!

[Furlong88]

Whoaaaaa man! that is one nice sound! i want one of them old jazz basses! cool bass lines in that song!

[acidiceccfc123]

amazing!

[kirbygene]

That was just...so very very good! WOW...

[Exemption166]

pretty good style man

good groove.

I think its up to the bassplayer to decide what style is good for them. Playing with your fingers is harder, and you can control the sound of the bass. But playing with a pick sounds great, really punchy.

[tokenup1]

i tip my hat to you sir

[PunkLooees]

do a cover of YYZ dude!...

that B real sick..

[guitarzarecool]

DAM'N GOOD!

[ManipularSilver909]

Amazing playing there. I went and took a shot at this song as soon as I could. However the tabs I found, which although they look good, they are different than your hand movements, if you could direct me to some good tabs for this, it would be awesome. Nice job, 5/5, amazing.

[ManipularSilver909]

Sorry everyone, didn't mean to post twice, youtube was freakin out at me, my apologizes.

[ManipularSilver909]

Wow... I'm awestruck, as soon as I saw this vid I went and picked up my vid. But the only tabs I could find appear to be much harder, as they go up and down the neck more than your given hand movements. If you could direct me to some good tabs for this, I would truly appreciate it. 5 out of 5 for sure. Nice playin, and thanks.

[blackmaccheck]

i love all you vids do you have a band?

[TrueCriticism]

Dude, wake the hell up... you're really good, but drop the damn pic... you could be so much better without it...

give up the pic or go back to guitar

[Dizkneelande]

PAt plays the song with pic. Picks are just another way to get a different sound mayne.

[maciste1990]

ottimo lavoro

[motoman32]

Nice work! Extreme is underrated. Great musicianship.

[pixiemeat44]

that tone is sick dude....sweet playin too! I use a pic aswell and all I get is abuse hahaha keep it up

[TrueCriticism]

yeah well im gonna keep the abuse around buddy

real bassists dont use pics

[Zarrix]

i've seen flea use picks in fast songs so stfu you know-it-all dumbass

if you think flea isnt a real bassist something is seriously wrong with you

pat badger doubles up a lot with a fast guitar so he needs a pick

you a cant walk your fingers fast enough

[UsRanger]

Yeah, Pat Badger isn't a"real Bassist"please..I love the pick sound. That was awesome dude,it was right on.

[morrissteven]

To be fair, you have to admit that if the tone calls for it, a pic is a good thing to use.

[Dizkneelande]

what a lie

[tukd]

well, i guess YOU are the REAL bassist here..

[RiffSurfer]

wow you don't know anything, ive seen flea use a pick,

if hes not a real bassist than who is idiot

[MCLOVIN50]

real bassists do use pics. there's a lot of them out there, such as gene simmons, guns n roses' bassist, tool's bassist, and so on. im a slapping type bassist, but im not against using a pic, it does give a very crunchy and clean tone at times, but its not a bad thing to use.

[shinjiyasuno]

Duff McKegan and Justin Chencellor are the bass players from GnR and Tool.

[Guitarshred31]

That is such a narrow minded and juvenile comment, A real bassist would be a master at both pick and plectrum styles as to fully master the instrument, and if you watch this guys cover of my generation he can do both!

[BUZZARDBASS]

i love this guy, awesome, please post more.

[vpholwanna]

oh, and it probably helps that he has perfect pitch...

[vpholwanna]

it shows you that he doesn't read tabs, and he figures out the songs by himself... stupid

[germizz]

how much did that bass cost

[Darrell93]

wow

[AngelicWhiteWinged]

Amazing job

[Karmaneoeric]

Sincerely, I am amazed at how well you play, you sound so well, your picking is wonderfull keep it up ! I have a jazzbass too and I cant make it sound so nice

[acidiceccfc123]

another bass player's sound is always better than yours! so basically this guy could think that your sound is better than his!

[mrbassplaya]

very very amazing dude.. wat kinda amp do u all use to get that sound?

[Quixpeed]

Nuno is really a genious, an u have good feeling dude..

[Mowac]

I've never heard anyone attempt that song and it is very difficult to play.

[realBASSSOUL]

cool.

[Munkybarz]

Top shelf man. Nicely done!

[PunkLooees]

damn man... u play bass and guitar Badass! man..

you should make 2 videos of YYZ-by Rush.PLaying the bass and guitar. Im sure you can play it like nothing. THAT WOULD BE SO AWSOME DUDE...

[mcfoglerstinefred]

o AWSUM DUED

[dynamo0]

Did I already say that just because of your videos I bought a Fender Jazz Bass?? after trying others, I realized it is the most comfortable, durable and versatile. Thanks and please keep posting more bass tunes.

[Dizkneelande]

holy crap I love this bass line

[swiperthefox13]

Jesus you're awesome

[DMEsch2002]

Awesome :)

[atreyugod2010]

awesome dude

[iwantagoodnameplease]

Fnatastic! How did you learn to play this? By ear.

Ps, you should have done the pat-badger rap at the end! :)

[scarred2112]

Killer playing and great grindy tone! Gotta love Jazz basses.

[cutwolf55]

is bass easier then guitar cause i play guitar and im gettin a bass

[Paolomondo]

i can't tell you how much i love the bass guitar!!!

[gob2003]

Nice man, great playing! Plus this is the first time I ever hear this song... it's SWEET!!! Keep on rockin' man!!!

[cutwolf55]

[spepper]

[GilbertxD]

nice dude perfect

[JoKKegoestasty]

Nice!

[egoore66]

great tone,technique and timing..

[SirSlug]

phwoar! nice!

[nikike91]

I love your sound man! the playing is fantastic too. I'm just not that fond of the sound of the pick but I guess it fits the style of music, so I'm not going to argue about it :D ROCK ON!!!

[Actaviosan]

Yay! Well done mate!

[bstarvegas]

Wow...well done. I've never played with a pick but after watching that, I've been totally challenged to learn a new technique. Feel free to throw some more extreme up there...they rocked and didn't get enough recognition.

[gob2003]

Nice man, you have tallent. I play drums and I would love to have a bass player like you in my band!

[dynamo0]

To be honest, I became interested in the Jazz Bass just after watching your 3 bass videos here... I even bough a Fender Standard Jazz Bass and enjoy a lot playing it.

[Rennehana]

Fuck I always loved the bass in this song more then others. Amazing dude.

[AveracHardcore]

ya man.. feel  the music

[jalkhi]

excelent work. keep it going!!!

[Qltsar]

bass with pick?????

ohh shit! but this song is very "dirty"!

try with your fingers to improve your bass guitar's sound!

[Rennehana]

The bass player from Extreme always used a pick. It gave him the sound that he has for all the songs. STUNNED

[dinuccii]

that was awsome but put it louder dude

[jnprather]

Seriously... well done buddy...

[xiinstinct]

wow man thats awesome. I play bass to, great job!!!!

[xythan357]

nice job man, i like what you do.

[Goodouman]

very good. nice clean sound. I usually dont like the bass players on here because their not goood! But you got skill man. five stars. great work. i like the lick around 3:08 . Peace

[evolutionmb]

awesome job!  Extreme is so underrated

[zentoast]

that's sick, dude...one of my favorite songs.

must've taken you awhile 2 learn.

props.

[Magikflea]

You own the groove. It's the first time I watch a guitarist playing the bass like that! Even the first time I see someone playing the bass with a pick and making me dance! Great Job!

[aldenthegreat]

nice video very nice bass

[irvingcalderon]

good job man!!!!

[memeomemeo]

toca con los dedos maricon

[appzguru]

i really dig your sound man..

[Lenoar]

Just.. Waow.. Awesome playin' dude ! =)

[delawellsoulmusic]

Thanks man!!

[maturanesa]

so clear and precise, very good work congrats

[delawellsoulmusic]

I just played the bass guitar this song 'cause nobody had played the bass guitar this song on YouTube, btw...

[LucCaswalker]

Hey man, you appear to like playing with pick, and playing fast stuffs, could you play "The Magnificient Seven from The Clash" on bass ? It's all time the same line lol, but i like it =)

Unfortunately I can't play it very well hum... maybe too fast ^^'

[delawellsoulmusic]

I know well about The Clash but maybe I have not play the bass guitar of them...

[23Domo]

i am a big music fan and like it to enjoin my favorit instrument, the bass. Thanks for the playing dude and keep comeing with new stuff!

p.s. i cant play any instrument myself, but hey, you need also the guys who just listen and enjoin ;)

[delawellsoulmusic]

Thanks your watching! I really don't mind if you can't play any instruments 'cause I just hope to enjoy your watching.

Now I can't post any videos 'cause I'm so busy for my work, but I'll post a new video as soon as possible.

[BlisteringDDj]

Great playing dude. Funky sound! =D

[delawellsoulmusic]

Thanks dude!

[caemlsof7]

wow ur so awesome you should do like a teaching thing for ur videos you have mad skill its insane

[delawellsoulmusic]

Thanks for your watching. Enjoy it.

[jonhunter1987]

Nice job man! This is the next thing I have to learn. I have the solo at the start down. Just the rest of the song to go...

Very impressed though!

[delawellsoulmusic]

Thank you for your watchin' and savin' to your fav!

I wish that you play this pretty well.

[trigunsx1]

Nice playing, Nice sound. How many frets are on that guitar?

[delawellsoulmusic]

Fender Jazz bass is 20 frets.

[SDRockman]

That was very good playing right there, keep it up.

[delawellsoulmusic]

Thanks man.

[harmloos]

man i favved this... maybe I can learn to play this :O

only just playin for 3-4 months and never had any lessons so basicly I cant play much... oh well i'm gonna try

[delawellsoulmusic]

I think it's so great that you gonna try to play this.

And I think that you can play this if you don't give up to practice. Hang in there!

[Mikeeeeeeeeeeeee]

thats awesome dude! My friends wanted to play this song with the band so i'm studying it myself.. probably going to take some time though ;) Thanks for the post!

[delawellsoulmusic]

Thanks man!! Yeah, I think so, too. I think that some practice is necessary to play this song 'cause it's hard a little.

[peteandurnot]

Well done. I learned to play that back in 1997. A great tune and good for exercising the chops. I pluck the Strings with the fingers when playing it as I find it a bit more fluid that way, just my personal preference really. Well done again.

[delawellsoulmusic]

Thank you for your watchin' and commenting'.

You also learnt this song is so great!

[LucCaswalker]

yes i study myself, but i'm gonna take courses, it won't be bad ^^

Yes i heard your taping, it's not ine the original song, but it sounds not bad anyway in the song !

[delawellsoulmusic]

Yeah, I think that won't be bad, too.

That tapping part is just of my joke...'cause I had been a little bored that time. XD

[thisischadfoster]

dude thank you...

for u i learned the song myself...thanx

ur very good by the way.

[delawellsoulmusic]

Are you playin' by self-study? It's so great!

I'm wishin' your skill to improve. Keep it up!

[thisischadfoster]

yeah ive taught myself and everything...

yeah ive been playing for about a year and a half and so far i think im doin pretty good. yeah u r a great bassist...r u in any band?

[delawellsoulmusic]

I think that you improve more than I if you keep practice up.

I'm not in the band now and I'm playing the guitar as my work.

[bamaway]

I love this song, you play it well. I play it a little different to you though. I like the double tapping part you added. Nice bass i have a ibanez 5-string beauty. How long you been playing?

[delawellsoulmusic]

Though I'm anxious a little how about it is different... =)

Of course, the tapping part that I added is my joke. XD

I've been playing the bass guitar for about 20-25 years, btw.

[LucCaswalker]

Oh you know i didn't tkink so, but i know you're not a shit at all =p

[delawellsoulmusic]

Thanks dude!

[LucCaswalker]

Ok i'll upload some videos, but i just play bass since september, and i never followed courses :(

[delawellsoulmusic]

You don't have to care about it at all if you've done.

Though I think myself that I'm not a awesome guitarist, but I'm NOT such a man of small caliber as carped to others or abuse others. :D

[LucCaswalker]

I'm sure you're the best one between us =D ^^

[delawellsoulmusic]

I wanna see your video who played the bass guitar.

Try to play it if you can record the video! :D

[LucCaswalker]

Honestly, I don't know how much times i looked this video, but it should be about 20 times ! XD

It's perfect, your bass playing, the bass sound and the track sound... and the video is not bad at all...

I think I fell in love with... this video =D

[delawellsoulmusic]

I appreciate it very much! Also I know that you're playin' the bass guitar is so great.

Let's improve together through friendly rivalry to play the bass guitar! XD

[LucCaswalker]

Oh amazing man !

I love this sound !!!

Very good playing =)

[delawellsoulmusic]

Thank you for watchin' and complimenting!

I'm so glad for you to like this!!!

[booger94]

Sweet! I'm not normally a fan of picks on a bass but you really made that sound flow. Did you tab it or use sheet music?

[delawellsoulmusic]

Thank you for your watching.

Though I'm explainin' about that on my channel page over and over...I've never used the music sheets or tab scores EVER. Please see my top channel page first.

[dockan77]

It sounds really cool. I wish the original record had pushed the bass level up

[delawellsoulmusic]

You're talkin' about this backing track?? It's impossible, if it's so...

This is my backing track which I edited from original record for playin' the bass guitar. Also my other videos are similar.

I always make my guitar sounds be able to listen easily, but I cannot be helped about difference generated according to the song.

I cannot explain in detail more over...

Anyway, thanks man for your watchin'.

[flolaloco]

yeppp coooooool

[delawellsoulmusic]

Thank you for your watchin'.

I know you played this song on guitar is great.

Also I play this on guitar, too....ha-ha.

[wayneduck18]

You are a great muso!!

[delawellsoulmusic]

Thanx man!!!
