Ian is a bass player’s bassist. Solid low ender with impeccable timing. I read somewhere that he started out in jazz on upright.

[@tempatchtheveryweird3665]

lot of bassist started with jazz, teaches a lot of great skills. Like Flea was a jazz trumpeter.

[@rafa_v1.0]

What a great guy! I've been a Judas Preist fan for 44 years and counting. Only in recent years have I seen anything with him talking and just a total down to earth guy. The backbone of that band of such a long time!

[@mrpositronia]

The heart of Priest.

[@magnuswettermark8293]

Exactly..👍🤘

[@JalenRawley]

Totally underrated bass player. He was a lot busier and bluesier on the older stuff, but as things got more driving and riffy he had no ego about laying back and playing exactly what was needed.

[@manduheavyvazquez5268]

God of bass and metal. Greatness.

[@AllanGildea]

Two very likeable gentlemen - Ian comes across as a really pleasant fella.

[@MrRed-tf7bv]

He is & the original member of Judas Priest. 🇬🇧🎸

[@pseudosun]

i like how he hangs on the F# forever on "You've got another thing comin'" When he switched notes, it made it sound like an event 😜

[@rikosborne1212]

Yeah, I've always thought that Ian's use of pedal tones is really the foundation of JPs sound.

[@nairamdiam]

The song’s theme is feeling like a badass, and guitars do the whole job. Bass just makes fundation, and them BOOM different notes

[@pedroquinteros4399]

[@cd0u50c9]

The power of one note. Only those that don't know how to do it mock it.

[@lynndalerobinson9919]

The Bass God

[@michaeloughton4746]

Stuart and PJ are literally the best. They always look out for the players. Happy retirement to both of them.

[@jackshittle]

He deserves that signature model.

[@lonestar6709]

Probably the best bass player in the world. Metronomic timing.

[@ikon4255]

hardly, he’s nikki sixx level at best LMAO

[@клаустрофилдбормоглотов]

yeah him and geezer!two great 4 string players!

[@StevenLamkin-yz2rd]

Cannot agree more Ian Hill maybe the greatest Bass guitarist but he's also a nice guy too 👍

[@johnpruden6879]

Ian Hill is just the best.

[@richardwolski5899]

Seams like a pretty cool dude.

[@rodnyc.8876]

Ian "Bass God" Hill

[@benrechakiewicz3594]

Imagine all the stories these guys would have over the many years of touring.

[@lf170]

Must be an old video, on the new Ian Hill signature Euro (this year's) Mr. Hill got his wish and they only have the P pickup.

[@brbadge]

He’s a regular two note Tommy. Except his name is Ian.

[@holdtightadele8017]

Has to be rage bait this😂

[@omihovilic]

Too bad we don't hear a single tone...

[@ruthlesscutthroat4030]

@Toxic Potato i dont know. we all like the rig rundowns where they're like well i can do this... and do that...

[@carvinblack]

Usually there is a link to their website where you can watch the full episode. For some reason they are making us wait for the full episode. It will probably be up in a week.

[@Leberteich]

Dear Ian, Czechoslovakia wound itself up in 1993...

[@holdtightadele8017]

I say my grandmother comes from Yugoslavia because she did. It’s now Slovenia but I was speaking in past tense.

[@markbass354]

COOL BUT JUDAS FORGOT TO PLAY THAT NICE BASS , I WANT ONE ITS WELL MADE

[@esopusguitars]

cool vid from my friend Ian Hill 👍. hello Spector fans…PJ Rubal here…check out Stuart Spector’s new instrument company, Esopus Guitars! basses & guitars.

[@rjc7289]

I'd like to know at what point in Ian's career did he switch from playing fingerstyle to using a pick?

[@richybryan4652]

SIR IAN HILL

[@4deuce31]

I still can't afford one. But it's a nice bass.

[@jasonharris44]

Ian Hill and Steve Harris should get C.B.Es

[@RedCoat1016]

Ian Hill talking about his bass guitar is about as interesting as Ian Hill playing his bass guitar

[@paulclemas513]

Could be a just a cab driver “here mate! Can you hold this for a bit?”. No bass in this vid!

[@kent-oveprestberg3578]

I've never heard him play. I think his bass volume knob has been broken for over 50 years.

[@TinyTeaKettle]

Then I'd suggest you buy yourself some proper headphones. Rage, Victim Of Changes, Love Bites (Yeah the Intro is Ian through a Synth pedal), Dreamer Deceiver, Heavy Metal, etc. Sure you won't "notice" it especially during the Painkiller period but just listen to those tracks without bass. Thin as sh*t.

[@ruthlesscutthroat4030]

amongst the first here. John Bollinger is the best!

[@carvinblack]

You link to watch the full episode is fucked.

[@MrGrand2000]

He’s the polar opposite of Steve Harris ,can hardly be heard on their records and extremely simple playing

[@ognir66]

You are completely wrong. He is far tighter and more rock solid than Harris could ever be. Plus he doesnt go E-D-C E-C-D in 95% of his songs. if anything, its Steve Harris who is the simple bassist.

[@TheTrooperMB]

@Nairam Diam Ian Hill is one of the tightest bass player i've heard , to the point it sounds almost robotic! Steve Harris on the other hand is the opposite in the sense that he is humanizing the bass by playing on the get go with the feels , the simple mistakes makes it's charm and goes well with maiden I would say , more natural feel

[@jimobrien9104]

I don't think you understand how bass playing works.

[@ornerycuss5804]

@@ognir66 I just saw Priest last week and Ian's bass was loud, proud, flawless, and absolutely 💯 % professional. It was amazing and he never missed a single note.

[@ognir66]

@@ornerycuss5804 Exactly! I read an article where Scott Travis(Priest Drummer) says Ian is the ONLY bassist he's ever worked.with that never makes a mistake. Night after night-SPOT ON.
