Run to the hills - Bass cover

Me playing run to the hills w/p-bass. Strings used are dead rotosound flats, so the sound ain't top notch for this kind of music:P but i usually have a brighter tone, just haven't changed strings in a while, sooo...yeah^^ a few mistakes and maybe not exactly the way Steve plays it, but a cool song to play anyway.

long scale or short scale?

[Poltergeist86]

@finskate97 i guess it's a long scale, but i'm not sure

@Poltergeist86 dude those gallops sound amazing my questionis do you use 2 or 3 fingers and if you use 2 is there a technique to do such great gallops?

[Poltergeist86]

@hectorpzharris I only use two fingers. Dunno if there's a special technique for it, but i let the middle finger do most of the job..like, middle-middle-index, middle-middle-index, middle-middle-index, etc. in the gallop-pattern 8th-16th-16th, 8th-16th-16th

@Poltergeist86 how long did that technique took you to master it?

[Poltergeist86]

@hectorpzharris playing like that just felt natural from the start, but getting the speed took some time, several months. Can't play as fast as that now with fingers, have only played with pick lately

[Poltergeist86]

@rosswell123 no complaints so far xD

[sirshuar]

I think get that speed with the fingers is hard lol

[Bakeerful]
