So, today I got my full (ish) pedalboard out and decided to get funky...and record it.
I can't tab this, as it was all improvised on the spot, but I can tell you it's in G.
Buuut, yeah! I'm not wearing a shirt because it's freaking hot out, and I'm in a windowless basement that's hotter than the rest of the house. Also, I felt like giving my Digitech Whammy some lovin.
Gear (Ab)Used:
1996 Alembic Epic (WITH FRESH STRINGS, HELL YEAH!)
Acoustic 260 Micro Stack
Tech 21 Sansamp Bass Driver DI
DOD FX65 Stereo Chorus
Electro Harmonix Bass Big Muff
Digitech Whammy
Recorded with Flip Video
Edited on iMovie

  • haha, even with a backing track your timing is garbage. keep making excuses

  • @JKryanX Again, lets see you do it better.

  • OMG - Dreadful!  no rhythm, sloppy technique, terrible sound. Insulting to the bass community. Give it up, dude and find another TYPE of instrument to play if you want to do music. Please understand - not everyone has music aptitudes, and if you don't have them, you can't hear how bad it is. It's like the American Idol auditions - they REALLY don't know how bad they are. There is a saying - "If enough people tell you that you are drunk, go lay down".

  • @Gioinla Lets see you do better, bro. Also, I'm pretty sure I have musical aptitude...I got the Berklee Judges Choice award for my bass playing. You know, from the Berklee College of Music? At the Berklee Jazz Festival? A pretty prestigious event? So...yeaaaah. Go eat a bag of dicks.

  • That was just awful, and your attitude is worse. Why do you keep making excuses and defending yourself when you can just get better? Pretentious beginners piss me off.

  • @cursedswordsman Dude....I have no attitude. I've also been playing bass for 10 years. And I still practice. Because I can always be better.

  • You should sell it to someone who can play the bass.

  • @hojima Cant tell if serious, or just really dumb.

  • @JKryanX oh yeah....that guy sucks too much.....sell your basses and guitars and buy a car or a ps3 please

  • It's a joke right?

  • @hojima Keep in mind that this, unlike the rest of my videos, is recorded on a shitty camera microphone as opposed to recording direct in. Other videos where I use this, it has wonderful tone. And I know my slap technique could be better.
