- Pickup Selection: Neck
- Pickup Tone: Full
- Finger/Pick Strength: Mid Low
- Finger/Pick Shape: Sharp
- Other: Played lightly over the neck pickup or in the middle part between pickups. Lowered action to get an agressive sound. I insist that this is played with light touch. Playing with harder touch or high action (as i do on most of my videos) will burn you out very fast and won't get the tone

[@RaceDayReplay]

Steve tickles the strings so a light touch is the correct way to go

[@L0veLYLAd]

One of those songs that cements a player in history. Steve Harris is a god

[@Vampier]

I compare him to the bass player who drank 30x more coffee than he should have

[@brianpolly2975]

the section at 4:48 is perhaps the most important in Maidens history. Has defined this band for decades. This has to be one their top 5 songs.

[@dogmeat619]

couldn't agree more. the fact that such a legendary track (and riff) came out so early in the band's history is a testament to how legendary they are!

[@cerealata9035]

The Iron Gallop, if you will.

[@vasileios6035]

Some artists can not even play guitar that fast. Steve Harris is from another planet. Up the Irons

[@jeslookin2168]

Steve Harris was, is, and always will be metal’s master bassman.

[@roaming740]

Him n geezer

[@claytonman31]

About time there was some more maiden on this channel!

[@Daddy53751]

I seriously LOVE Harris’s early, more punk inspired playing from the first two albums.

[@BG-bq1qp]

mr. sir you’re a a great bass player and your tabs are the best, and thanks to you i’m now studying a music career as a bass player, and this wouldn’t be possible without the aid of your great tab sheets, so thank you so much.

[@TheFrendlyGiant8745]

Been practicing this for 2 weeks straight and can now play at 75% speed. We gettin there boys

[@renans3796]

That’s what I’m talking about!!! Some Steve God Harris for us

[@TheGeordieBassist]

Very impressive bass playing 👍

[@CCDDofficalRespawn]

3:54 fits the song so well

[@BurkeTrue2]

Been working on this one myself recently. Having the hand speed for it is challenging enough but the stamina needed to get through the whole song separates the men from the boys. Harris doing this regularly for two hour shows is why he's elite.

[@kahwigulum]

The only way to play Steve Harris lines is as lightly as possible with the amp turned way up. We're going for economy of motion and as little effort as possible for those faster sections. Play too hard even slightly and you won't make it to the end of the song. Now repeat for the whole set. Genius player, and this is a genius version. Very impressive.

[@vienesaconketchup2364]

Godly song fr

[@goredzilla]

Epic song ! First Maiden song I learned and made a huge impact on my playing decades later \m/ #UpTheIrons

[@user-pv1ej4zs2b]

Its amazing how this man can play anything perfect

[@suicideistheanswer369]

My favorite Iron Maiden song, thank you so much for covering it.

[@anna-rexia]

Amazing fretwork! My mission in life is to learn this bass! May take 10 years but at least I have found a new goal in life 😛 It’s like a classical piece on music 💙

[@alistairwalker1109]

I had no idea this even existed, wow, just incredible!

[@omg_wtf]

When did you arrive on Earth?

[@ionlytalkaboutbass]

Amazing song choice!! ❤

[@Tony-The-Motherfucking-Tiger]

Always great to see your covers

[@andrewpappas9311]

One of my favourite Iron Maiden songs, Steve is absolutely on fire as usual and I also love the cover Ghost does as well

[@morrach]

Awesome, thanks for covering this!

[@BathtubBass]

Yes! So glad you've cover this! I'm currently learning and struggling with this!

[@rubberdinghyrapids8528]

Just awesome, many thanks for the tabs.

[@bradsimpson9396]

Legend Fantastic cover. I could never get the timing right during the first guitar solo, but this helps so much. Thanks man!

[@garnetbezanson1404]

I have to use a pick for this bassline so this is super impressive.

[@trippy.hippie333]

yay! can’t wait!

[@Uroste]

Hell yeah, been waiting for this!

[@lautaromontoya3993]

I have been waiting for this since 2018, thanks seba

[@gdgdgdgdist]

I love playing this song. You’re awesome

[@andreaelizabethramirezlope1316]

Esto puede ser lo mejor que he visto en este canal

[@omg_wtf]

I learned this by ear decades ago and have always played the E to G section with the G on the 5th D string. I also play the fast intro build up section starting on B of the E string, moving to C on the E string, and then moving to the D 5th fret A string etc.. Love how different players approach the same thing. P.S anyone learning bass now, you will never know the pain of learning a song from a cassette player with no rewind function - turning the tape over and fast forwarding over and over and over and over and over and over.......

[@roaming740]

Yoooo let's go my favorite maiden song

[@jondarahsabahanborneo1797]

Awesome bro👍

[@omardanielnordi5332]

Genio Gracias.

[@karlofandango6108]

Legendary!

[@alexisbrachet9577]

Wow ! The 1981 Maiden Japan live is quite unreal in terms of speed !

[@TheDieselndust]

Holy right hand Batman!

[@ignazio6037]

Thank's man!

[@harrysachz5408]

Nice work man. Can you do Mind Transferal by Electric Wizard?

[@shononoyeetus8866]

yes.

[@davidscothern6900]

(listens for a moment) (genuinely checks whether YT is at 2x speed) (finds another CS tab to play instead)

[@omg_wtf]

You know, 4:26 still kills me man

[@tsht]

Great play ! I still can't manage to play correctly the part beginning at 3:36. This song is really fast

[@marventos8104]

Play it slowly and get a feel for it. You’ll a reach a certain point when stuff like this becomes super easy

[@theatticreview777]

I’ve been regretfully sleeping on Iron Maiden apparently….

[@enzolumare5680]

The albums from the 80s are literally perfect

[@Polkhero]

Great cover. Another Steve Harris Tour De Force like The Trooper but longer. If only the production was better on their earlier albums!

[@gabrielcastro-zj2eo]

🔥🔥

[@dbenflen6013]

[@isaacotaco]

Increíblemente difícil

[@robcowgill9845]

Ugh!!!…Why on Earth did I agree to do this song on bass???..Looks like I’ll have to quit my job…lol Thank you for doing the heavy lifting for me though….I know some work went into it and I am grateful good sir!

[@negrohit]

Genio

[@mariano.tiberi]

Hay que cerrar el estadio 🏟️ los genios nomás hacen eso

[@gdgdgdgdist]

Dance of Death next? :)

[@BarelloSmith]

I played in a Iron Maiden cover band way back and not to sound pretentious but I would say in general I have quiet a good grasp at about 90 percent of their catalogue. However for some reason I never managed to play the part between 3:38 and 3:53 and it bugs me immensely. Anyone have any tips on how to approach it? I simply can't get up to speed with the record, not to mention their live performances that are even faster.

[@dominicharrington992]

Check out Time Left by Zutomayo, it slaps!

[@rayvincentayuda5908]

I like your bass guitar

[@MavenPolitic]

This is so hard to play cleanly

[@NielsSte-ml8vd]

Steal my kiss by Ben Harper please😊

L.A Stop the clocks please 🙏🙏🙏

[@AlexandarShmex]

Very difficult, the solo is for some reason difficult for me to understand...

[@MertKöse1745]

I even got tired watching it

[@geraldwafflebottom3397]

Somehow missed this in queue so started practice today with it, Definitely should have warmed up first LOL

[@gmunoa]

wish me luck

[@rwaters9709]

*Promo SM*

[@ruledtrendy5066]

Your rhythmic notation for the verse isn't correct. It should be triplets not straight eighths

[@charlesmitchell5829]

Do holy wars my mega deth

[@TheDieselndust]

Try working on spelling Megadeth first!😂
