Here's a bass cover of Metallica's cover of Budgie's song, "Crash Course in Brain Surgery." It's got a fun, heavy bass part and two cool bass solos, so I thought I'd give it a shot. I also used a bass pick in this vid, which hurt my hand a lot XD.

Overall I think I did great, with some minor errors (other than the obvious "my camera and amp both suck"). But what do you think?

  • pick GAY

  • @OlaWie Troll GAYER.

  • Pick user.....mmm....but the song is supposed to be that way. Good job anyway.

  • @Iolous Correction: finger picker, song is played with pick = use a pick. I despise picks :P

  • fuckin ace! i bet you would sound like a right beast through a massive stack!

  • @cookie5455 Dude, I know! I was playing at this all-nighter for my church last week and we put two bass amps together for me. It sounded INCREDIBLE! Next bass investment: a stack, definitely! Or a Warwick... :P Thanks bro for watching; this is an old cover, too, so I've gotten way better!

  • this song is fun to play. awsome job. the problem I ran into when trying to learn it was that the solo is so muddy on the original recording you cant really hear what he's playing, then all the tabs I looked at sounded wrong, so now I just play something that sounds close to the original and continue living my life.

  • y does every 1 hate pick bass players dave ellefson from megadeth is one and lemmy from motorhead is a pick bass player aswell

  • With this song the tone comes from the pick, so all you fucking trolls can fuck off

  • why do people bitch and moan if you use a pick or not when playing?! it don't matter as long as you can play. and you, sir, can play.

  • You've got good tone, sounds very similar to Newsted's actually. Nice cover too.

  • nice work dude...it would be better if we could see what your left hand is doing

  • @NickRicc7332 Kentucky Fried Chicken!!!
