Fall Out Boy - Sugar We're Goin' Down Bass Cover (With Tab)

Bass cover of Sugar We're Goin' Down from the album From Under the Cork Tree by Fall Out Boy. This song is in Drop D Tuning: D A D G. I technically already covered this song on my channel but that was 8 years ago so I allowing myself to cover this song again. Overall a pretty simple song so I decided to add some of my own arrangements in Pre-Chorus 2 & Chorus 3. Enjoy!

It's all fun and games until my man pulls out that pre-chorus2 lol.

[@jetsanchez8846]

that part blew my mind

[@JaviePlaysBass]

watching that part 1h before I was due to record bass just made me question my life

[@memohuerta4965]

Is that how Pete Wentz originally wrote it or what? Or is This dude adding his own spin on it??

Yeah yikes

When he busted out the tapping 😱😱

[@princessgold1997]

Yo this was one of the first songs I learned on bass - I guess it was your original cover that taught me. Time flies!

[@honeydusts]

today is my first day playing bass and this is the first song i've learned! thanks for the video with the tabs!

[@ucopiedyibo1959]

How’s your progress?

[@MintsHD]

[@averagemakimaenjoyer5494]

how bout pre chorus 2?

[@Person-lx1qu]

Guys I think pre-chorus 02 killed them.

[@nickweems4113]

Did u learn pre chorus 2 lol

[@andrewportis7061]

That finger tapping part is sweet!

[@jimbojimbo6915]

The first song i have tried tapping with, going surprisingly well! Awesome cover and nice bass btw

[@spideychris_]

Tone is on-point as always, man! Cool jacket btw! 👌🏻

[@LongueCarabine]

That was absolutely RIGHTEOUS.

[@oliverjohn2633]

Tapping was tasteful as hell i love it

[@jacksonwright5145]

That bass sounds (and looks) fantastic! Nice cover.

[@jamespeters3507]

Way to make this tune more fun! Awesome job

[@ciscoinmotion5440]

Your tone is great man!

[@diegonascimento5920]

the most beautiful bass I've seen in my life

[@joaniepeters2565]

That’s perfect dude! I’m playing this emo night gig and I’m going to be tapping that pre chorus and also that cool bass run! Thank you!!

[@whotookthedoor]

Well this made my whole day.

[@reversingthewayprod]

This rocks dude, more of a fan all the time

[@FlaxsSeeds]

I know what song im learning next

[@KFGatica]

Bro does he really tap that piece?! No tab that I found has that, and I love it! Dope cover man! Thanks for sharing!

[@MyBassistChris]

No tapping in the original recording, just wanted to spice up my cover since there is no bass in the Pre Chorus. Glad you liked the cover!

[@M4RCM0NT31R0]

Hell yeah!

[@boydivision666]

this is amazing!!!! and i rly need 2 learn bass for my band, so this is great :-)

[@whiplashdd]

im thinking of learning how to play the bass and this is 100% going to be my first bassline i learn

[@jyoung8221]

Your tone SLAYS!

[@patriciomartinezjr3124]

Killer tone my dude

[@ConstantineIsslamow]

Great job. Thanks for sharing this with us. Cheers

[@Fariswheelanwar]

That’s a rad looking precision bass dude

[@JRBeast-nw3xg]

Geez this one is tough for me. I just started learning bass a week ago and this thing really is hard I started learning this song yesterday and I can’t quite get the rhythm of it. You make it look too easy with the flow of the hand and stuff. At least it’s something I enjoy and practice everyday. Eventually I’ll understand how this song works

[@costumesforalloccasions]

Awesome job!

[@lucastperez]

I just got myself into this band and this song is in the set list. So fine, I decided to watch this video and saw the tapping part. After quite a while practicing, I managed to get decent at it. I was about to call it a day to practice more today when I decided to hear the original. Theres none of that in the original lol 😂

[@MyBassistChris]

LOL yeah that was my own arrangement. I like to spice up my covers, usually when there is no bass for a part or I change the last chorus/outro. Have fun play this with your band!

[@happyrock]

Classicccc. Sweet arrangements you added!

[@JDY517]

Question, did you have that p bass special routed for a humbucker in the bridge?

[@kalpicat6899]

this is fuhking amazing whattttt

[@phpimusique9373]

very cool! congrats bro

[@southpark228]

Guess I gotta relearn this with your spin🤷🏻‍♂️also, GROOKEY GANG!!!

Tf with pre-chorus2?)

[@jaredalexis8512]

this is more than i bargained for….

[@fabimmm999]

Belo instrumento. Muito obrigado.

[@XraysWays]

Sick cover bro!! I had the exact same idea to do this mod to my bass with the same pickups and that's how I found you! any chance you can do a hard-rock/metal song with both pickups blended so I can see how it sounds in that type of setting? Bit of a selfish request there, not gonna lie

[@MyBassistChris]

Thank you! Lol no it's not selfish I am overdue for a cover where I blend both pickups, I've been using only the P for my covers. I was planning on covering Afterlife by A7X next but I'm pushing that back because I'm receiving a new bass tomorrow. Look out for that cover once it's released though!

[@XraysWays]

@@MyBassistChris Excited to hear it man, I'll look out for it!

[@louispontillo9467]

Really held back there... 😂👏👏👏

[@radashell5729]

This is rad as hell💕💕What is the tuning?

[@nofunclub3248]

Most Fall Out Boy songs are drop D!! ❤️ Check his description for tunings! :) This one is Drop D 💕

[@hectorevans4940]

DADG. It's in the description. But most of FOB songs are in drop D so when you don't know, just tune it like that.

[@shinryanrey855]

wow your bass is so shiny

[@Leeta]

Can you recommend a beginner bass and amp? For an adult lol I have crazy long fingers for a female!

[@MyBassistChris]

Bass & amp depend on the budget, but I would say a really solid setup would be a Sterling Ray4 with a Fender Combo amp. The Ray4 goes for about $350 but is on sale at Guitarcenter for $250 right now. I would also recommend looking at basses that your favorite artist play and try to get the affordable version of those basses. Definitely want to play something similar to artists you like and pick a bass that you think looks cool. You won't want to play a bass that you don't like. Hope this helps!

[@dhezhee]

1 year into learning how to play the bass but pre-chorus 2 makes me want to give up. Tell me that this is normal. Lol!

[@BenjiH23]

What bass is that? Looks like a P-Bass Deluxe with a MM pickup 🤔

[@MyBassistChris]

Yup it's a Fender Special Edition Deluxe PJ Bass modded with a MM pickup! For this cover I'm only using the P pickup

[@GavinSideways]

Awesome cover, that tapping was amazing! Can I ask what pick you use?

[@MyBassistChris]

Thanks! I use Dunlop Tortex Wedge Picks 0.88. Hope this helps and sorry for the delayed response

[@franco.cordini]

you play better than Pete lol. Great cover!

[@ollie_gabriel]

i looooooveeeeeee sorry if my inglish is not very good well, but, i ever think this music is simple in bass ! just whit a ''base'', but is complex line bass ! MUITO FODA ! Is a second your video what me watch ! BRABO DEMAIS

Wrong rhythm on the verse and you completely miss the pre-chorus notes on the D string.
