Bass Teacher REACTS to PAUL GRAY playing “Duality” by SLIPKNOT

[@JefferyIneptstein]

Paul Gray was also a very big part of Slipknot’s writing team. Joey Jordison and Paul were a huge part of what made those early albums so good as both played guitar.

[@JefferyIneptstein]

Also, if you want to hear Paul open up more. Check out Bitch Slap on their Mate.Feed.Kill.Repeat EP! He makes that track worthwhile

[@IanRose-mp1sq]

First of all funny your image is from f for family. I didn't know paul also played guitar but it kinda makes sense now.

[@mattygainesville]

It is my understanding that Paul and Joey pretty much wrote the lions share of the self titled album and Iowa… they were a dynamic duo…

[@codigoceropokemmo]

Yes and can hear that absence

[@skeptischism1324]

@@mattygainesville Josh Brainard wrote a lot too, Jim Root had no hand in any guitar parts on their self titled, he got added to the band right before they recorded the album, so he played all Brainards parts during the recording.

Paul is one of my favorite bassists to watch play. I saw them live with him on bass 4 or 5 times. He is so smooth. His tone is great... I was truly sad when he died.

Iowa will show you how creative he truly was, and demonstrates how vitally important he was for the bands sound and feel. Give that song a go, maybe make a reaction video about it.

[@chriscuthbertson]

The bass is an Ibanez ATK, it has a single triple coil pickup. it has some clever pickups switching options.

[@LowEndUniversity]

Man, I’ve never seen one like that. Very cool. The ATK part…maybe I remember someone saying Fieldy played a similar model?

[@krms2504]

​@@LowEndUniversityFieldy used soundgear Basses With 2 humbuckers. The atks were Intentioned to be the "stingray Killer" didnt really Work Out... Still they are nice basses

[@smokymountainlegends7797]

Greg K. of the Offspring and Kevin Baldes of Lit were both ATK players at one time or another. I had one years back and of all the basses I’ve owned, I miss her the most. Thing was an absolute monster, big heavy body, massive bridge, wide neck. The pickup was an active triple coil with a three-way toggle that turned individual coils on and off in different combinations and a 3-band EQ. Really versatile bass and solid enough to be handy in any standard zombie apocalypse scenario.

[@kharybaker868]

I have a small collection of ATKs(4 so far) and I'm on the hunt for his signature. Pretty much my favorite model ever released by Ibanez.

[@rabidwallaby84]

killer basses...if only they didn't weigh more than an aircraft carrier!

[@__supreme7]

Love how you mention his picking technique, as imo its very slept on and i wish more people pointed out his technique. RIP #2

[@LowEndUniversity]

It’s beautiful to watch!

[@RolandDeschain1]

I really noticed it watching the ROADRUNNER UNITED concert. His picking is almost light. He's not clobbering the bass the way a lot of metal bassists would. It was very eye-opening to really notice that.

[@Darraghs1]

Ripppppp😢

[@deathsicon]

this is taken from a video where he actually breaks down and explains each segment and how he plays it, and thanks to that teaching this song (and original video in particular) made this the first song i learned when i picked up a bass

[@skinbagmusic9530]

the songs "Confessions" and "Part of Me" are hands down some of Pauls best work in Slipknot. Full of slap and two hand tapping

[@ekojar3047]

The bass really is what gives these songs the grove they have. My dad always taught me and my brother dummer, that all songs are held together by the Drums and Bass. If a song is a burger or sandwich. The drums are the bread, or buns. and the bass is the butter that makes the bread golden and toasty. You Don't really raste the butter and bread over the rest of the stronger flavors, but it's the toasty bread that holds it all together. That is how my dad taught us what bass and rhythm is really all about. The singer and lead guitarist need to shine. We support them. My brother and I would get bored, and shred too much in a song because it was more fun to play. So my dad had to reel us back in. Letting us know that nobody wants to listen to a mess of notes. Know when it's your time, if the song even calls for it. KISS was our heroes growing up, to us KISS meant. "Keep It Simple Stupid" And it's a winning rule for music writers and performers.

[@LowEndUniversity]

Poignant stuff. Thanks for sharing, great read!

[@astrogallotron]

Paul grabbing his pick be like👌RIP

[@romannosov1791]

The perfect way describe his playing is like digging an underground tunnel. You have all those guitars, drums and percussion on top but below all that there's this massive round tone. "Left Behind" is the perfect example of that in my opinion.

[@EricNeuls]

Yea paul gray was great he filled the sound perfectly never overplayed but was perfect with joey jordinson. I believe the typical slipknot tuning was (Low B,F#,B,E) Paul also wrote the majority of the music which is why the first 4 albums are soooo freakin good lol

[@LowEndUniversity]

Isn’t that a similar tuning to what Ryan Martinie did?

[@krms2504]

​@@LowEndUniversityyes ITS a similar Tuning what , martnie uses 5 String and Paul Gray Most of the time used a 4 String . He used Music man on the First Album , on Iowa and vol 3 a Warwick Thumb and Corvette . And on all Hope is gone His Signature Ibanez Atk 300

[@alexanderbanggren6071]

there is just something else with someone who mastered the basics to perfection. its like it becomes an extension of their expression

[@JasonIrvin]

Your passion for music and bass is so awesome. So fun to watch.

[@LowEndUniversity]

I appreciate that! Means a lot! 🙏🏼

[@dave1986R]

I have an Ibanez ATK which was the model that Paul’s signature bass was based on. I set it up for the same drop B tuning that Slipknot uses (B, F#, B, E). Duality is one of my favorite Slipknot songs to play on bass. The reason his picking technique was so intricate and clean and smooth was because he used a Dunlop Jazz III, normally used for guitars. I use those as well, I love them for that tight trem picking. This song really is a like a physical workout for my fingers, hands, and wrists. But it feels great when I play it right.

[@FrenchVanillaMilitia]

I loved Paul's scooped tone. Made sense with his pick style so there's actually some balls to it.

[@bassimprovjams3772]

RIP Paul! He was a major part to the knot writing especially as a guitar player to me Vol 3 was their best work, it was a great mixture of everything, I had a ATK 305 which his bass is based of off Ibanez called it “ the stingray killer” and it was such an amazing bsss! Especially with the string through body option! Thank for this Mark! And such an amazing tone!!!

[@brandonw7506]

On Paul's birthday today, he was such a fantastic writer. For someone who wasn't a schooled musician, he made writing seem so easy. Writing heavy, melodic & catchy. Slipknot has never been the same since his passing. He was the team captain of the true 9.

The one song I would recommend for listening go a slipknot song that kinda showcases paul, is gently. Something about the atmosphere that song creates I just love

[@krisstout2347]

Paul was a guitar player first so i imagine his understanding of where he fit with the guitars as the bassist was pretty wide. hence why he was always one of my favorites, he never really broke the mold but he did what he did almost impeccably. easily one of, if not, the most technically talented person in the original lineup.

[@jacevess7556]

Such clean picking and even attack. Amazing bassist and always missed. RIP Paul.

[@davidjamesinflux321]

Hello. I seen slipknot play at a small bar in London, Ontario, Canada when they 1st started out at "the drink". It was a great show, the small stage barely held all the guys & equipment. Few months later more and more people took notice of them, and eventually in a short period of time, they became known in pretty much every household on the globe. Thanks for doing a bass video review on Paul. Have a good day.

[@LowEndUniversity]

[@matthewganong1730]

I always liked how his basslines were actual unique lines and didn’t always just mirror the guitar. The verses of this are a great example, with the guitars playing extremely fast riffs, but Paul just laying down a slower groove that outlines the tonality and gives space for the guitars.

[@skuz34]

surfacing will forever be my favourite slipknot song and it has such a great bass solo/bridge/part thingy

[@phantomlord3280]

I knew he was a talented player but hearing him more on the front end now man he has mastered the instrument and has a very good understanding of music. Very impressed

[@kennyhouser3467]

Paul was a great example of what a bassist SHOULD be. The humble, consistent engine that drives the rhythm of a song. My instructor way back when I was a kid always told me "as a bassist, you should strive to a place where almost no one knows you're there in a song, BUT they will definitely notice if you're not there." That was always my approach in the writing process, and Paul was a perfect example of that. He also introduced me to the scooped, picking sound that compliments metal guitars very well. RIP

[@wilhathaway1987]

I started playing bass because of Paul. He is a legend and will never be forgotten. RIP Paul

Paul was a guitar player before a bassist which is why his pick tech and muting are that way. He was a very good song writer and his attention to details in songs were awesome.

[@krms2504]

Thats awesome that you covered Slipknot. If you want to cover a song from where Paul Gray Played, i recommend: Vermillion Terry date mix ( the bass is much louder there), gehenna , child of burning time and no life He also has bass lesson from the Song surfacing which is really cool. You should also watch mfkr the demo album Slipknot. He Plays some funky stuff on do nothing/Bitchslap and some tapping in the bass intro of confession

I second listening to MFKR album. His playing was at the forefront of their sound. Guitar work was also good, I recommend “Confessions”. Any song from self titled or Iowa you will here is tone more. Tone was a little more hidden in vol3 and dang near gone in All hope is gone. Side note, Paul played Warwick thumb from Self titled to Vol 3.

Paul was an insane bassist his technique and pick work was brilliant amazing control attack and timing he made playing look effortless, alot of stuff i write in this genre i try and compliment the guitar makes the sound alot thicker and it blends real well in this genre dont see it alot in other genres of music, string bends muting and harmonics on bass are brilliant sounds and very under used and under rated by alot of bassists there is alot of different ways to make different tones with a bass

I respect the way he tackled this video, instead of saying "it's really basic and there's isn't much else to say" solid player but nothing more than bedroom skill.

[@jeremiahcowling3837]

I will say, this is also technically not what he played on the album, Rick Beato has a video showing the iso stems, on the album it’s a lot more simple at first in the verses but I think it still works really well for the track, gives room for the guitars before he switches to a countermelody. If i remember correctly this is how he tended to play this track live to add more energy. Definitely an underrated musician and songwriter in every regard, and his feel when playing with Joey was incredible.

[@intelHD510]

Do Nothing/B!tchslap is a song off of Slipknot's pre-debut/demo album M.F.K.R. It is a bass centered song with a lot of different genres mixed in and showcases a lot of Paul's talent. I'd say it's worth a listen.

[@coltonpugh9669]

I believe he is playing his signature Ibanez PGB1L in this video. Prior to becoming one of their artists, he mostly played Warwicks.

[@PochiPandalope]

If you really want to see what Paul gray could do , look up "Do Nothing/Bitchslap" on their first demo called MFKR. It is ironically the most technical and interesting they've ever played, and not many slipknot fans even know about it. It's really fun because they switch between like 3 distinct genres on the song, it's super experimental.

[@bradkneale7580]

confessions also has great bass parts

[@pR0ManiacS]

Mdfkr album was so good and the fact that they kept the sound even after they swapped almost the entire bandmembers.

If you want to hear more bass driven Slipknot songs - I would recommend you Vermillion part one (especially alernate mix, bass is really shines through), IOWA (the song, not the album) - but that will not work as a reaction video - too long. Disasterpiece is also great example of Paul's bass playing. Also - No Life from self titled and Confessions from MFKR

[@andarchy1386]

VOL 3 hands down there best work

Absolutely. Slipknot found their personality with Vol 3, and they still had the ST/Iowa stage energy.

[@rabidwallaby84]

The pickup in Gray's Ibanez ATK is a triplebucker with coil select. Really trippy setup but killer sounds! I wish it was available in a 35" scale Ibanez that didn't weigh as much as a boat anchor.

[@ghouliethousandtrouser2905]

Always thought Paul Gray was very underrated. Like, you can always hear him, but you rarely hear what he's actually playing, it's so thick and low in the mix. But when you can pick him out, he had some real smooth, almost 70s rock style grooves just kinda hidden in there. I've always thought the biggest reason Slipknot stand out so much compared to similarly heavy bands is the way each individual member understands flow, and how to flow together. That's literally the reason I was disappointed when I listened to death metal for the first time, I was 14 and just got internet and I was excited to finally hear "the *really* heavy sht"... Ended up listening to Deicide or something, like "I can't even headbang to this, it's a fkn mess" 🤣 Course I learned to appreciate it in time, but Slipknot's first 2 albums are still the most consistently, satisfyingly heavy music I've ever heard.
