Bass Player - Shae Wooten (@shaewooten)
Lyrics:
I saw satan fall like lightning
I saw darkness run for cover
But the miracle that I just can’t get over
My name is registered in heaven
I believe in signs and wonders
I have resurrection power
Still the miracle that I just can’t get over
My name is registered in heaven
My praise belongs to you forever
This is my testimony from death to life
Cause grace rewrote my story, I’ll testify
By Jesus Christ the RighteousI’m justified
This is my testimony This is my testimony
Come together sons and daughters
Bought with blood and washed in water
Sing the praises of the Spirit, Son and Father
Our God will finish what He started
Our God will finish what He started
If I’m not dead, You’re not done
Greater things are still to come
Oh I believe

It’s the harmonics for me.. 🔥🔥🔥

[@jrthomson1001]

Thanks a lot Shae! I've watched a lot of your vids and dare I say I've taken an influence from your soulful chordal work, even when I've played some of these songs at my own church! Keep up the good work, and God bless!

[@uharnessup]

Please tell your video director, Thank you, from all of us who look for the bassist when we watch music videos. It is good to see that they don't hide you in the dark corner like so many others do with the bass. These kids need to see how a bassist worships and plays at the same time. :-)

[@shaewooten]

Thanks Randy!

[@benmontey3438]

Preach it dude

Excellent video, tank brother.

Killing it in that pocket, Shae! Love it.

[@shaewooten]

Thank you, Andy. 🙏.

[@boomerbutler7569]

Correct. This is the definition of playing in the pocket. Not too much and enough flavor to keep the song from being repetitive. Love this groove and the tone even more!

[@gregmoore2875]

Your placement is so tasteful! Thank you for inspiring!

[@shaewooten]

Thanks for the kind words, Greg!

Derek Smalls Jr. playing under an assumed name, of course. LOL I love his voice on the bass. I am glad my worship pastor has me learn this stuff.

[@richardgoodwin9365]

So nice Shae! Do you have a video breakdown of your signal chain? Love your tone!

[@shaewooten]

Thanks Richard! I do have a rig run down on this channel!

[@davidlinares5497]

AWESOME😎

[@shaewooten]

I appreciate it, David!

[@justinengler7308]

Shae I was curious as to how much you'd recommend me teaching myself. Im not in really in any positions where i could have an instructor so I was just wondering. I know you can take any instrument to any leval but It just seems that bass is pretty basic. I've played around with the guitar so I kinda knowish my way around. I've concluded that the rythym section is where i belong since I play drums so I have decent knowledge as to how bass sits in the bass. Any information on a beginer bass within a budget would be nice. Thanks.

[@GroundbreakCreative]

Hi there guys, I've done a few tutorials on your songs. Ive just seen a couple of them have been blocked, they had previously been running, with revenue going to you. The difference in my videos is I take the time to break down all the parts and explain them, to help out all the beginners out there. I always say at the start of my videos that I don't own rights to the song, and that viewers should check out official sources to practice to. My question is, what can I do differently to stop you from blocking my videos? Considering I make purely for educational purposes and make no money from them myself, that would constitute "fair use".

[@thomasmason782]

Love Love LOVE the tone on this one! How long have you been playing bass Shae?

[@shaewooten]

Thanks Thomas! Honestly kind of hard to say! I started playing music in elementary school band then picked up and put down other instruments through the years. Bass was always my favorite.

[@shaewooten]

How about you?

[@thomasmason782]

@@shaewooten Well I've been playing music pretty much all my life! Played guitar for about 3 years thoroughly but I still play on and off, piano for about 8 years I think, and I've been playing bass for the last two years and I love it! I'm actually going to university to get a degree in ministry with a major in worship arts starting after this summer! Just graduating high school!

[@kenhough9507]

Killing it as always. Really digging that tone... is that just the P + pick or is there a bit of dirt thrown in there? Can't say it enough, glad you guys put this channel together!

[@shaewooten]

It really means a lot that it is helpful! Thank you! I am getting dirt from the Timmy on the Hx stomp. I love that stupid box.

[@kenhough9507]

Shae Wooten Man, between you and a few others I’m trying harder and harder to figure out how to justify getting the HX Stomp... and a Noble... to replace my Ampeg scr-di 😂

[@shaewooten]

@@kenhough9507 I can say they have definitely been worth it for me. lots of avenues for good tone though!

[@lukaseisinger4138]

Your Sound is so nice!! 🔥🔥 I love to play with overdrive and pick but I have a problem ... My clean sound is really nice and you can really feel it through the subwoofer But as soon as I turn on my overdrive, my sound is no longer bassy and you can no longer feel it and it only comes on the normal speakers. Do you have a tip for me or what am I doing wrong? I would love to continue working with Overdrive, but the technicians always say that I miss the sound as soon as I switch it on. But on the in ears the sound is really nice. A very nice video!

[@shaewooten]

Hey Lukas! What type of overdrive are you using? If there is an EQ I would play with adding bass and taking away a tiny amount of treble. Guitar pedals used on bass are notorious for taking away low end, even if they sound really good on the top end. Which is why it can sound good in your in-ears but thin in the house. I usually run two lines in parallel, one clean and one with my effects. That way when I turn on an effect I still have one line that has all of my low end still intact. Your sound engineer can help with this! My hxstomp has the ability to split lines, that is super helpful. Otherwise I use the Goodwood Bass Interfacer. Hope this helps!

[@lukaseisinger4138]

@@shaewooten Hey shae, Thank you first for your answer. I have had the Helix Effects at home for 2 weeks now and connect my Eden WTDI Pre amp. I use the normal overdrive that the stomp also has. But I still have the same problems. But with the 2 lines I will try it out that sounds like a solution .. Thanks bro! ✌️

[@_dxnn9]

Nice

[@shaewooten]

Thanks Daniel!

[@greeeenchee]

My favourite part is where it goes “1,2,3,4”

[@63fiberbuggy]

What effects are you using (& settings) for this song?

[@shaewooten]

My overdrive on this song is based around a Timmy. Its a setting I mad in my HX Stomp!
