I just got a B.C. Rich Warlock Bass Guitar. and I couldn't resist.
This is the first in a series of videos in which I, a humble N00b attempt to (poorly) bang out some tunes.

Please give me some advice where you see fit

P.S. No matter how much I suck, I'm still a better musician than Sid Vicious ;-)

  • Sid Vicious was a horrible musician, John Lydon brought him in only for image, hoping he would learn to play in time, unfortunately time ran out for ol' Sid.

  • let that be a lesson to everyone! Don't shoot up with smack!

  • Don't use a pick, you played fine. Tabs are a little off though. I wouldn't slide if I were you.

    Do pull those strings harder though. And yeah, Sid sucks.

  • Ps: I don't actually use tabs; I play what I think sounds good. Picking out individual notes is way too long a process for me, so I just listen to the song once or twice, and then play it.

    I also add a bit of personal flare sometimes (John Entwistle triplets and pentatonic flares and shit like that) but I'll agree to cut down on the slides; they do kind suck.

  • im playing bass for 1 day and i can play better than this

  • a shite piece of advice but I find keepping my thumb at the back of he neck increases your stretch distance and the amount of pressure you can put on the strings to fret them properly

  • What are john entwistle triplets? Are they different from normal triplets? FAGGOT

  • the thingy at the end with a sort of reverbertion effect was spot-on, old chap. the rest sounds like when I take a shit, after drinking lots of soda and eating beans

  • Yeah.. sid did really suck at bass, but he's still one of my role models. I also play bass, im good but not amazing, just average. sid just dint get it i gess... but a great bassist is matt freeman from rancid

  • Sid was the fucking best! I dont want anyone ta talk about him like that! Him and Johnny are my role models
