  • Nice bass cover! Good stuff!

  • Is there any reason you played it in a deeper key? I'm not saying it doesn't sound good, just curious

  • you are a genius of metal

  • what kinda bass is that bro? Sounds great with just ur bridge pickup. My schechter stiletto elite 5 is pretty sweet but i think that thing kinda kicks its ass.

  • WOW!!!! AMAZING!!!!

  • lol look at the calender

  • lol, I bet he thinks he's bad to the bone... XD Haha, you're a great bassist though.

  • Put a shirt on

  • @JizzyLawls

    <plays metal

    <shirt off

  • Comment removed

  • сколько же уёбков на свете

  • Bass solo! E E E E E E ! You rock :D

  • Wearing no shirt would be a nice stage presense (sp?) but you know what i mean xD

  • Dude is a dead ringer for the bass player from the Ramones Dee Dee. Ramones tribute would be great! Check out the Ramones live 1977.

  • That bass is amazing!! Were did u get it!! Awesome cover btw :)

  • i love your bass

  • Btw where can I buy your bass guitar

  • Forget the haters man :D

  • The only reason why he is shirtless is because he's a hobo.. Nuff said.

  • Whats the name of that badass bass?

  • @hykkan1 Its a traben phoenix 5 string bass guitar. John Moyer uses it too. :P Such an underrated brand but theyre kickass.

  • Here's a comment for ya: you got a pretty nice physique.

    Also, very, VERY awesome playing, dude.

  • Have any tabs? I NEED to learn how to play it JUST like this dude.

  • Whats your amp set up effects?GREAT JOB!!How do you like that bass?CAN YOU RECORD IT AGAIN LOUDER??

  • @runninonempiy No effects. Bass set to Bass-10 Mid-5 Treble-10, and only bridge pickup (since my knob for pickup selection fell off that day >.>) I'm going to be doing a full cover of this song again somewhere around January/February with guitars. And I might be releasing individual tracks on my website once it's up and running fully, if you want to hear just one instrument. Sub me, and if I haven't got it running when I post my full cover of this, message me and I can send you just the bass =)

  • I LOVE the bass riff in the verse.

  • Comment removed

  • Who cares about clothes when u play the bass like this shit? ;p

  • Good job! Like the bassy sound. I really envy your bass! Where did you buy it?

  • You're bad-ass! Thanks for posting

  • Great cover man!! :) i love how you are playing and i don't care if you are shirtless or not!! xD good job my friend!!!

  • Sorry I couldn't focus on your playing. I would be able to if you weren't so damn HOT!

  • 15 people are wearing shirts :P fucking awesome >:D

  • DUDE UR AWESOME

  • good cover and may i say damn lol jk your pretty cute tho

  • Thanks for the tips. :)

  • Nice cover, love thesound from that Traben!

  • How long have you been playing bass? I've been playing for about 2 years. I'm actually trying to learn this song right now which is how I found your video. I only have a 4 string tho, so I always have to play differently. Any tips?

  • @caseyxthexkitty In this video, about 3 1/2 years. For you, I'd say do Drop C tuning. The only problem with it is that you may need to adjust your bridge lengths to make the strings sound right on the higher frets when you drop tune. With a guitar it's not so noticable, but on a bass it can be pretty rediculous. Message me if you need more info on that. My tips would be to look up the bass track and compare what you're playing with that, and if you have a hard part, just work it with a metronome

  • @caseyxthexkitty (cont.) Also, use your pinky when it makes sense logically. It might not be the most comfortable, but if you use it enough, it becoms as useful as the other three. I hate to see people who end up limited to 3 fingers. Also, if you're playing it finger style, practice kind of a sweeping from the A to E string when you can. Like, if you change from A to E string, use the same finger to pluck both. It'll save you energy and let you play faster with less effort.

  • Nice bass. You look like me... But bigger. Creepy... I play bass too. Ibanez 5 string

  • Comment removed

  • god, thatsb a traben phoneix? i love that bass. awesome cover and acting btw :)

  • who rele cares if he doesnt have a shirt.GOOD cover

  • that is kinda funny tho... the haters.... they watch a cover for music and they complain about the person playing it now u no u got no life when thats the only thing u care about in the video

  • Can I have some of your money?

  • @burningkarma I'll get back to you when I have money lol

  • How'd you record this? Bass has a awesome deep growl !

  • maybe i should record myself shirtless and post it on youtube lol. Great job anyway!

  • Grab a shirt god dammit.

    Disliked even though I guess it was a great cover

  • @ThaThing1337x lol if it bothered you that much you didn't have to watch it. Must not have been that bad since you watched my Stricken video too haha.

  • @HoboBassist

    I was looking for a cover where I could see what the guy was playing...

  • @HoboBassist Actually, I watched it to see how I'd play the song.

    Unfortunately, a shirtless dude showed up and made me sick.

  • @ThaThing1337x I'm pretty sure this is the second time you've left this comment. Get a life dude. I don't care, honestly, I really don't. I enjoyed playing it, and that's all I really cared about when I shot this, was just being in the zone with the song. So go get sick some more, and watch me keep not caring =)

  • @HoboBassist

    ?

    alrighty then, have fun showing off shirtless.

  • @ThaThing1337x hey dude..... realy? are you doing this for real? its fucking disturbed cover and you are notising that he is shirtless? well for me that proves you "gay" ...... ITS FUCKING DISTURBED go headbanging istead of looking him shirtles..... ^^

    GJ hobo on the cover. i like alot your bass ^^

  • @georgemaragos what? that i'm not blind proves that im gay?

    well, I didn't know that.

    As I said earlier I was trying to see what he was playing, not if the cover was amazing or not.

    I'm not saying he's a bad bassist, because he obviously know what he's doing. And he likes the right band.

  • @ThaThing1337x I agree, showing off in such an easy song is dumb, but I don't really care about the ''shirtless'' thing.

  • what are your effects? i got the feeling that your bass sounds deeper than usual

  • @9870321654 No effects. Bass got stuck on the bridge pickup, though, because the knob fell off, so I think that's what you're hearing. Usually I'm equal between both pickups

  • man, ur really good, nice job!! greate performer!!

  • awesome job. i liked that you really enjoyed it. That shirtless thing was a little annoying but regardless the performance was great. That instrument you have is a beauty

  • Im sure the ladies would love this video lol.

  • We don't mind you being shirtless. Really..

  • You have a fucking awesome stage presence! You would be a god live!

  • damn dude you are hot!! and i love this song. More songs with you shirtless!!

  • nice bass i'm gonna get a traben phoenix too :)

  • lol the sound too low make it higher

  • nice playing, but KEEP UR HAND UNDER THE .... whats the name in english? nvm. keep ur hand where it is supposed to be and as it is supposed to be. (0:54 - 1:18)

  • @MrBassman002 Your looking for *Neck

  • Awesome bass with awesome sound? Check.

    Attitude and flair? Check.

    Great job, man.

  • goddamn badass haha

  • you need a shirt to go with that inny

  • Wooow, nice!

  • god song good cover

    

  • thumbs up if you saw his calender at the beggining

  • What's the name of your bass ?

  • @Cocorikot It's a Traben Phoenix 5. If you mean like an actual name for it, I named it Prometheus a long time ago, but I rarely use the name haha

  • Ostia!! Que guapo el bajo!! Buena cover!!

  • Also @ aconfus3dlama I've been playing bass for 6 years and hobobassist has talent even if you don't think so, once again great cover of a great song

  • Good cover man

  • is that a gibson or epi in the background.. good job

  • @timberland1108 its an epiphone

  • dude, ur an awesome bass player regardless of what others say, u kick major ass!

  • haha either pull ur undies down a bit more or pull ur pants up man :P

  • Dude, why are you so sweaty before the song even starts?! Were you jerking off? Great job working that Ax.

  • @xyster777 haha not quite. It was raining outside, and it feld good. =)

  • what amp are you using ?????? because that sounds awesome

  • @ltgrmyrealintials none, just pedalboard into computer

  • I'm gonna be sick..

  • why is the entire song out of pitch?

  • @somebodysom189 So I could use open strings without tuning my bass up. This was a very spontaneous cover, it wasn't even going to be posted originally haha. I'm going to redo it soon in the way that I did the remix I posted.

  • This is no dis on you, you're an awesome bass player. But idk wh you and all the other people on youtube do covers without shirts. Its not like some chick is gona be watching and be like " that guy has no shirt on! I nnneeeeddd him"

  • yeah dude u rock \m/

  • You act kind of douchey, but you're a pretty good bass player :P

  • Potential * sorry I'm using an iPad and accidentally clicked "send" lol

  • Amazing cover dude! I respect you for the fact that you have the guts to do this. I don't care what others say you have amazing

  • What the fuck is wrong with people dissing this? Sounds really great...not a big fan of T-shirtless guys tho, but that's just not my taste I guess...

  • you look like a jackass with you're shirt off

  • @pyromaniactard3 You have "tard" in your name and don't know the difference between "you're" and "your". We're even.

  • @HoboBassist it's called a typo it happens when you use XT9 on your phone.

  • @pyromaniactard3 Lemme get this straight. You were watching my video from a phone that's so small that it requires T9 as opposed to a full keyboard? Besides, tard is still in your name. I didn't know you could search videos online in a phone like that though. Or why anybody would. But that's your prerogative, so whatever. Btw, T9 doesn't remove letters, just changes them. Just sayin'.

  • Comment removed

  • what bothers me is i wanted to get a traben, then moyer endorsed them thus never was in stock now he endorses someone else and there is no more "original trabens" around here. 

  • ive got more talent in my thumb than that on bass and guitar and drums all three of them i can show u up on

  • @ACONFUS3DLAMA You know I've come to realize that 90% of the time I hear comments like this, the person has nothing to back up their talk, they just like to talk shit to make people feel bad. The other ten percent are asses that will piss off the wrong person one day and get their lights knocked out. For the time being, I'll categorize you in the first one "full of shit". kthanksbai

  • @HoboBassist dont worry about this troll hes only 14 and thinks he can act hard on internet... btw nice bass you have there + you can use it very well unlike this ACONFUS3DLAMA fag :L

  • @ACONFUS3DLAMA your insulting Disturbed not this kid its their song so if you wanna make that comment to their faces go ahead see what happens

  • This dude needs a band

  • Dude you got what it takes to be on a big stage.You are very interesting to watch and you got charisma and skill.I wish you the best of luck :)

  • very smooth, slick and acurate ...fck what others say ...u r awesome

  • you're bouncy =D

    sweet cover

  • Your shirt is broken

  • what?! same strap and awesome song, i have to like this!

  • how did you get the song in another key?

  • 8 dislikes=8 people with no talent=8 with no life=8 people still sucking milk from their moms tits

  • Is it just me or is the sound demonized? (in the background, i mean)

    anyway, you are a killer with your bass :D

  • hmm... nice calendar :D

  • You have good stage presence, keep up the good work :p

  • I love your videos man! Killer bass skills! oh and nice calendar ;] XD

  • Man i like you, now i can hear this song with more Bass in it you made my day

  • Wow check out this guy muting strings with his hand on the other side of the neck. Dude sure has some talent

  • @twistoffate350 I can't say anything, it's true haha. But it was fun and I hit most of the notes so that's all I care about. This was never intended for youtube anyways. But yeah, I was wondoring when somebody would point that out haha.

  • Where do you get Traben basses? Its seems like nobody sells them online and no music stores sell them.

  • *have*

  • I like how you have the ''I just got out of the shower'' look dude. Really good skill and I like the energy you put into this video. I have usually a belife that ''No one can be as good as the band'' but YOU prooved me wrong. Nice job dude, im a hard guy to please. Rock on! \m/ >X)P) \m/

  • cool man.... you rock...... you da best :P i rly rly rly like your bass...... how much did it cost you? i would like yo buy one.....

  • @georgemaragos $850, but my model isn't produced anymore. It's the Phoenix Custom 5 by Traben

  • @HoboBassist ok thx....if its not produced anymore then the simple way.... e-bay :P

  • A shirt would be good.. but I like the enthusiasm

  • SICK

  • thatz the sexiest bass i have ever seen, how much did u pay for it?

  • @McLOVIN9419 $850

  • @HoboBassist it's a traben phoenix right?

  • @McLOVIN9419 Yeah. It's John Cooper's (Skillet) custom version. Although they just labeled it as phoenix custom 5. I didn't hear who skillet was until nearly three years after I bought this haha

  • haha he took his shirt iff and got his hair wet just for this video XD awesome cover tho man

  • loving the calendar man =D

  • u are good but get a hair cut

    bitch

  • yeah, a movin` bassist!

  • I think ur hair is officially dry :)

  • Great cover what kind of bass is that and how much did it run you?

  • How often do u use ur extra string on ur bass ?? jw and ur awesome :)

  • @FURRY1995 Um I use it like half of this song. And I do use all five strings pretty often personally. Not as much on the high G, but it gets used enough to be useful. Especially if I'm playing something in jazz or something. And my own songs use the high G a good bit too, and go down to the low B

  • @HoboBassist Awesome i'm a guitarist my self so I just wandered its like if I ever get a 7 or 8 string guitar i'd be like what can i do with these extra 2 strings

  • did you know that sagging means you're someone's bitch in prison?

    pull up your pants, bro. it looks gay

  • @LoweJoe Man if I was big enough to actually have decent length pants that fit around my waist, I would. I honestly didn't know I was sagging until I released the video. Granted, I don't care, but I'm not doing it on purpose.

  • Mygod this is fucken epic!!!, nicely done!

  • Wanna know whats rly boring.... bass covers of the guys just standing there playing. Wanna know what isnt boring? THIS!!!! Fuckin awesome....

  • aha.....and what does ur mother say about the small poster on the wall, right above ur guitar? :P

  • @K9Insanity ummmmm "thank goodness he isnt gay"?

  • didnt know the tone was THAT awesome haha how much was that bass ive seen all kinds of prices 

  • @yomammaonastick $850 and honestly, I don't think I'll ever upgrade. Maybe have more made, but I'm extremely happy with this bass in all aspects. =)

  • @HoboBassist its so amazing is that just a clean tone with ur input into ur computer? im glad u said 850 i saw 1000 hahah

  • @yomammaonastick yeah but they also don't produce mine unless by special order, now =(

  • liking the calender :P

  • YOUR FUCKING AWESOME

  • sweet bass dude, what is it?

  • is davids voice a little lower than normal here

  • @malifor00 yeah, the whole song is pitch shifted down a semitone

  • i love your sound :D

  • @atreyuhead111 showmanship=sales, without showmanship= go back home , clear and cut.

  • lmao love how ppl are dissin, look they guy played the song he sed he'd play and played it ell, with good use of tone and he had fun doing it.

  • This made my day, thanks for uploading pure epic awesomeness.

  • Fuck what people say, your awesome man!

  • Hey i got the same strap ! :D insane cover by the way xD

  • I'll remember the next time I play bass to make sure that I dont purposely pull my underwear up and pants down as well as put my head in the shower and take off my shirt so that way I can play the instrument.

  • @Bowyerma I'm sorry my underwear was too high. I can never find pants skinny and long enough for me. As I said in the description, I had been in the rain, and made this cover purely for my own purposes. I posted two months after i made it. I felt like being showy. Did I miss notes? Yes. Was it more fun? Also yes.

  • @HoboBassist i lol'd really hard, thanx
