Orion Bass Solo Tutorial Part 1

The second part is shorter and just deals with the ending of the solo. I would've put it all in one video but it was like 14 minutes long and my trial experiment to upload videos longer than 10 minutes just ended -.-

dude i think you should have had more practice before making the video cuz you dont really do it right ;)

[ElegyOfTheDead]

@911Jawbraker I never passed this off as perfect, but it is pretty close to the original and people appreciate a tutorial for it. But what do I know, being a bassist for 5 years and a multi-instrumentalist for two? Go ahead and upload your own video of you playing the bass solo better than this.

@ElegyOfTheDead Been playing for 7 here, I was playing full Death covers after 3.

Now, I learned a lot between 5 yrs. experience and 7 yrs. I cannot stress this enough though, you have to play OFTEN. You need to build the finger strength to open plateaus. I am just now reforming my whole technique because I feel i need to be cleaner. I'm done playing stuff I can't play with 100% perfectly clean fretting. Im working back up through the songs I know.

You need more practice but there's hope.

@Serob77 Thanks for the feedback haha. Yeah, I figure that while I'm not necessarily BAD, there is just an EXTREME amount of room for improvement. It really doesn't help that I've also been focusing on doing the same with my guitar recently, so it tends to take the focus off of bass a bit :/ Helps a lot with writing original material because I can get a feel for both the rhythm/bass section as well as the lead/harmony parts. Thanks for the comment either way, I will be practicing a lot lol
