who should be in the next GOT BASS CHOPS episode??

[@samarsa.]

how about an episode featuring all the AWESOME bass teachers on KZbin, thanks to whom many of us got the chops! Mark Smith from Talking Bass, Josh from BassBuzz, Luke from Become A Bassist, Bass Lady... You can throw Adam Neely there too, he's still a bassist and a teacher ;) Why not Rick Beato, too - he's a teacher and originally a bass player, an upright one i think

[@umbi2530]

kinga glyk - watch her "play with me if you want #2 slap time" video. it's very cool. she is a very cool bassist.

Leland “You shall not bass” Sklar, love it. What a great player everyone is

[@juanmanuelgaleanoadrian1895]

True !!! LMAO

[@DarkForceUbz]

Knew I recognized the name from somewhere. Man has a youtube channel, where he posts quite frequently. He also worked with Toto, Era and Phil Collins. I'm not fond of guitar music to the point of following channels so avidly, but that man totally deserves it.

[@xanderdaniels8284]

Frank Itt has great taste in basses, those BB’s are incredible

[@schwarzesonne6529]

Lol the faces he makes though looked like he was taking a shit the whole time

[@AxeMan808]

He sounded like he was the bassist for Bullmark (Interstate '76 OST) but not.

[@BYLRPhil]

Happy to see Rex Brown!

[@visog]

That was fun. I enjoyed Felix who's a monster, Gary Willis and Ryan Marinie's human octaver...

[@poltergeist3194]

Much respect to the players in the video but Ryan Martini is a beast.

[@piktormusic2538]

That's a pretty cool tapping technique that he is using.

[@peadookie]

Man, really wish I could listen to all of the Steve Bailey video. Great run and feel.

Great example of it's not the number of notes but where and how you place them. Masterfully done.

​@@pat8437 So many people have cheated on their spouses. Probably most of the actors and musicians you've watched on a regular basis have. Quit with the fake moral outrage. As for "grooming," she's said the relationship was consensual. Either we have an age of consent or we don't. Or maybe you don't think women are capable of making their own decisions? You don't have to like his actions, but if they were within the bounds of the law should he be deplatformed? If it bothers you, don't watch the video. But don't try to demand that the world conform to your puritanical standards.

[@THX-vp9fz]

I'm not a die hard fan of him but hes for sure a walking bassguitar and plays a unique style. I would like to pay a ticket to experience him live. PS/Edit Oh and please, dont say words like "hell" in context to him, hes a believing christian, thanks.

Thanks for including people playing with the pick. I played for 30 years with my fingers; started playing with a pick 2 years ago. I love it. You can get a totally a different ghost note - its loud!- you become a drummer!

[@cd0u50c9]

Bobby Vega and Tony Franklin do some great stuff with a pick, not to mention countless amazing rock bassists out there. Only small minded people claim that real bass players play with fingers.

[@sat1241]

These are by two FAVORITES: 2:38 Ryan Martine 3:26 Kai Eckhart they are both using different right hand techniques getting a unique sound. I have never seen what Ryan Martine does there. It's a four finger simultaneous right hand tapping technique that gets a thicker sound than individuated tapping. Doesn't sound like tapping but is a form of it. Kai Eckhart gets this beautiful, sounds like 4 finger fingerstyle and playing very close to the bridge so this one pinging metallic sounding, maybe harmonic is mixing into the pattern beautifully.
