Hello Charles all the way from North Carolina USA. I've been playing the guitar since I was 7 years old and I'm going on year number 57 now of beings a guitar player. I've worked with and played with MANY bands in my life, club circuit and national bands, and have seen and heard and played with MANY good bass players, but you my friend are hands down the absolute BEST bass player that I've ever seen or heard in my 64 years of being here on this earth!! I'd just about give anything to be able to play in a band with you on the bass guitar!! All I can say is keep up the fantastic work my friend and whatever you do PLEASE don't stop making these videos for us to hear and watch you tearing up the fretboard on your bass guitars!!!!!!! You are the cross between Jimi Hendrix and Eddie Van Halen of bass players! 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸

The only bass battle he loses to is against himself.

[@JaminHard]

lmao

[@taylormwilson1]

Chuck Norris of bassists?😂

[@GuitarsRockForever]

He never lost any bass battle, he fought a draw with himself after 69 hours a day bass battle lasted 10 days week.

[@wp_rkl]

loses....but wins at the same time :)

[@GeorgeValkov]

I'm not sure which Charles is better, but they certainly make a good team.

Eye of the Tiger ❌ Slap of the Tiger ✅

[@crankydonut86]

Ah, clever indeed, but one needs a thumb to slap. So should it be the "Thumb of the Tiger?"🧐

[@Galactictroooper]

​@@crankydonut86 lol, you're right. eye is an organ of organism, and i had to write thumb as an organ, instead of slap :D

[@estebanquesadas.4983]

Dude's not only has god level bass playing skills but also has mad editing skills as well , awesome video and outstanding playing as usual by Charles .

[@mjmason75]

Yeah, because he's such a monster on bass, I think most people overlook his musical arranging skills, recording/mixing skills, and his video recording/editing skills. Genius level on so many accounts! SICK!!!

[@KikiAelita]

Man I love the twist that this is a video about perseverance and not some dude feeling totally crushed by someone else's power. Wholesome, motivational, good stuff

[@Yupppi]

Something about this video is so real. Have we all been there at some point in time? Perfect song for telling that story too.

[@Jiggerjaw]

The moral of the story: even an Italian plumber with no experience in bass can become Charles Berthoud.

[@GiorgioArdito82]

No punches pulled, just straight slapping

[@Stupidity2311]

Crazy! I’m trying to reach that next level of bass, i’m excited to get there

Battle of the basses by the best bass player I've ever seen or heard, and I'm 64 years old and have been playing the guitar since 1967 when I was only 7 years old. I've worked with and played with MANY good bass players in the club circuit and national bands and if I could have him playing bass in my band I'd still be out and about touring right now!!

[@marklar9156]

64 years old and still don't understand anything about music? That's really sad. :( I have written songs from 1986 on (long gap between about 1998 to 2019) and I wouldn't take that guy as my bass player even if somebody would pay me for that.

[@danielsegewitz6956]

This song is a masterpiece and could become an alltime classic

[@Bassoid]

This was such a great idea. Depicts how I feel when I listen to you/actually get to play some of the few things I can play like you :) GREAT STUFF CHARLES !!!

[@tom-dreamingnothing]

Just phenomenal. Every single time.

[@zenmaster6780]

I absolutely love your stuff. It’s not just the bass playing. It’s also the production process

[@megadismayed]

Love the creativity of your idea here, Charles. 🔥

[@keithbowman7650]

I'm always in awe of your talent. You inspire me and crush my ego at the same time. Thank you so much for sharing your amazing talent with us.

[@unbreakable7633]

You might be the best base player I've ever heard. So smooth.

[@mwoody4560]

i’d buy the long version of that cover. awesome Charles. 🎉

[@maxwellbrand]

Always love to see the Sterling. They sound amazing.

[@jimpappas880]

Proof that only Charles can learn to play like Charles. 😅 I’m off to throw away my Stingray bass.

I wish I could just watch a video and do the same exact thing as the video. That beginner bassist is a natural if he can do that.

[@pietervaneeden2370]

Goosebumps!

[@leagueofangels1866]

Beautiful

[@jesusalfredohernandezorozc3836]

Great technique! That’s the result of playing for many years.

Sir Charles, the undisputed heavyweight champion! The video editing is superb and entertaining, and the bass tones are exceptional. Love the sound of the Schecter. Inspiring as always!

[@earpoison]

Holy crap, that was amazing! Not only your spectacular bass playing, but your video editing has improved with everything new you post. Impressive, as always🤷🏼

[@Codeaholic1]

Congrats on the video work in this one!

[@javieralcalde]

Great video editing & great playing as always 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@1wesell]

Good Morning Charles! You always amaze me! Nothing like a great song being played by a great guitarist♥

[@Elriuhilu]

I love that there is a universal bass face and that he does it in this video.

[@nathanwahl9224]

Well this certainly hits home brutally hard; I didn't start playing bass until I was 50. 18 years later and I still feel like doing the Jaco thing to it when trying to get better. I know there isn't time to even approach this level or anywhere close, but now at least I'm motivated and I'm going to work on tapping this week. Thanks Charles. I think. 😁

[@AThagoras]

Nicely done! Thanks.

😹😅🫶 you watching you in the video is very clever. Bravo Zulu! And the flicker effect toward the end is wicked awesome!

[@Old_Wizard_Minis]

Awesome! Also needs to be the soundtrack for a streets of rage level.

[@sanyo_neezy]

Damn, I really did not expect this one to hit so hard :D Had instant goosebumps once person 2 came into the scene for the first time

[@danielbainbridge2006]

Looks like another day of motivation! I like what you did with the student becomes the master story. I will be sure to get a Mario hat and Joe Dart sunglasses so I can transform. These must be the true bass mastery secrets.

[@shanebritt5117]

To combine them🤯🔥🔥

[@7donc]

I've said this before, but I'd like to see Charles on bass, Matteo Mancuso guitar and Valeriy Stepanov on keys to form the greatest progressive rock / jazz fusion band of all-time. Drummer? Perhaps Gergo Borlai?

[@irrsinnrainer]

Holy shit... Amazing playing! And I absolutely love your bass tone!

[@adiibanos]

Amazing, man!

[@starr_ship]

This is very, very tasty on a lot of levels (you now own this song IMO), but especially digging the inclusion of what felt like a more improvisational solo in this one! More please!
