Periphery - “Prayer Position” (Bass Cover)

[@laurenbabic]

THIS IS INSANE. GREAT JOB!!!!

[@7sloth]

Lauren Babic Thank you very much, your band and covers are really awesome!

[@peterreed7445]

instablaster.

[@ugurylmaz144]

Finally someone plays periphery with fingers :) Awesome job!

[@staz3014]

sLucifa does that too

[@miisu]

This is pick piece.

[@immanuelrohy]

If Ryan Martinie was in Periphery!

[@Raaschid]

Yoooo apply yourself as bassist for Periphery, Nolly sadly left

[@jonathanmerrow]

YESS

[@Dirty_Diesel_Gabe]

That would be awesome his tone would fit great with those guitars and the music

[@jacobsmith1877]

Dude I love your use of Ryan Martinie's plucked slap technique. You should apply for Periphery; you could bring a lot to the band

[@7sloth]

Jacob Smith Thanks very much, glad you like it. Haha yeah man, that would be awesome fun.

[@AgesofAges]

Nice to see Periphery done finger style man, the way to go. You're an inspiration!

[@Luministrus]

How is it "the way to go" Nolly uses a pick. If there is a proper way to play it, it's with a pick. But that doesn't matter and this whole "hurr fingerstyle is the way true bassists play" BS needs to stop.

[@AgesofAges]

I know that Nolly plays with a pick and I am not claiming that there is anything inherently wrong with playing with a pick. Some of my favorite bassists play with picks. By saying finger-style is "the way to go" I am merely voicing my opinion on what my personal favorite way of playing is. But there is nothing to get concerned about here. Have a great day.

[@80angelcleff]

❤

[@miisu]

Way to go is the original version with the pick, duh.

[@AgesofAges]

@@miisu Actually, I agree with you. My original comment was made when I first started playing bass and didn't know what I was talking about. There's no sense in being dogmatic about a certain approach to playing. Play any way you want!

[@krenwregget7667]

very cool rendition with the slapping instead of picking. That Warwick growl helps the tone too. Great job.

[@MO-ee2pp]

Amazing technique and sound, fantastic job!

[@7sloth]

Thanks very much 🙏 glad you like it.

[@debayanchakraborty9033]

[@kalvincalvert]

Yes. You. Do, gadammnit.

[@bass186]

Clean AF

[@davis.kevin82]

I haven't used a pick in years on the bass. I love how you throw in that smooth finger work! Sounds awesome!

[@1987blessthefall]

Crazy

[@srmackin]

Dude, you're amazing. I practice my tail off to get a tenth of your talent and skill.

[@Skull99Crystal]

Unique style!!! i love u!!!

[@rip_torn]

unique right-hand technique!!!

[@predator2830]

Great Great Great, you have made an unbelievable work dude, what a fingerstyle!!!!

[@ratchet600]

Getting a tone like that without the pick is pretty sick

[@ibrahimmartinez6841]

Like an animal! Outstanding.

[@TEKNAband]

Killer tone! Great!

[@TreeBeardNero]

Criminally underrated. How the hell do you only have 6k subs

[@rogermoore022]

Man, you're absolutely incredible. I certainly appreciate (and would like to thank you for) everything that you do. I'd love to see you do a cover of Rainbow Gravity if you get a chance to. Or some Tesseract songs 🍻

Dope

[@ardhi1471]

Cool dude !!!

[@Dimzidze]

so cool!

[@nicofebrio1531]

Periphery should ask you to join man.. Great play and tone..

[@ylizi6324]

This cover is a unique one. All the covers I saw on KZbin here, all of the players in these covers used pick, while you used fingers and slapped using thumb. Realised that using fingers give more attack and choke on each individual note, and by muting the string after playing the note makes each note come with a very obvious distortion crunchy sound; although picking lacks out on each note’s importance it does allow a strong forceful attack on an open low A string (Slapping the low A string gives more of the metallic crunch that came with the distortion, not that much of the actual note heard) I’m an electric guitar and classical cello player, and don’t know that much about bass (Although I’m recruiting a bass player for my band, do reply to this if interested) so please feel free to point out what I’ve said wrong. Thanks!

[@Chingon6969]

I absolutely agree with you. This is amazing skill

[@viktorijabudryte3263]

IT WAS AWESOME! And sure hope you Will have more wiews on this video

[@DrewDrums]

[@golfsatanic]

god skill!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Haiasiriku]

That CLANK

[@jessysharrock5280]

This guy has Fingered it out! 🤘

[@nihalnayak5483]

Great job doing it finger-style!!! What is the tuning for this song?

[@7sloth]

Nihal Nayak Thank you! The tuning is AGCF

[@Tangalang22]

@Guitar Covers & Stopmotion no, tune it like a standard when doing it on a five string bass so adgcf

[@nemesisbass2133]

Aaaaaand I quit. Outstanding job, dude!

[@zabelzardok]

Dude, this cover has destroyed my brain, great! I read that you're in AGCF tuning: what adjustments have you made to your bass? What kind of strings are you using? Pedals? Thank you!

[@7sloth]

Shalbeom Thank you so much! For the strings I'm using Ernie ball nickel wound 55-110 gauge. My action is set quite high to keep the low tunings sounding as tight as possible. My signal chain consists of a boss me50b multi effects pedal giving me compression, a mid range tone boost and a little drive. That runs into the darkglass B7K.

[@santiagopereyra1626]

OMG, i love this song a lot, and you left hand techinque is awesome. Where did you get the version without the bass track?

[@matankedar8]

great one! what gear did you used? effects-wise and amp

[@7sloth]

Matan Kedar Thank you. I have a rig run down if you want to check it out here's the link kzbin.info/www/bejne/p3iYcpWBndF-d8U

[@matankedar8]

yeah I later did watched that one. knew I recognize that darkglass sound. but I didn't noticed when you use the big muff. can you direct me to one of your videos where you use it?

[@80angelcleff]

Just PERFECT! love it specially being played with fingers, btw what gauge of string are you using for the A tuning ?

[@7sloth]

Thank you very much. Glad you liked the cover. I’m using 45-100 string gauge. I did adjust the action on the bass to accommodate that low tuning quite a bit!

[@80angelcleff]

@@7sloth is indeed so inspiring cant get enough of it, keep it up !!! ..crazy how your Warwick can handle those so low tunings with strings being i guess standard ? and even so sounding so good ! , but again i feel like im trying something forbidden on a beetle while you driving a corvette haha idk i just got inspired thanks to you and got a set of GHS 50-115 strings for this, my weapon right know is a standard Musicman Sterling bass, it handles the strings really well the E string feels like almost like a B from a 5 string bass but now reading how you can do this wizardry with standard strings WOW.. again amazing playing 👏

[@7sloth]

​@@80angelcleff I do like the clarity and punch you can get out of the lower strings on the Musicman bass guitars. Sounds cool. My Fortress bass is set up to really accommodate lower tunings well, when i first bought it, straight away it naturally was pretty solid in drop B. I didn't have to change much, just maintenance really. Thank you for your kind words. Really happy to hear that i helped with some inspiration.

[@13_cmi]

I use the regular slinkys with the yellow package and the low string is a little loose even in drop d. At least for me. But lighter strings than that below drop b is way too loose. My guitar is running 12-54 in drop c and it feels great so I might need something heavier on my bass to match the tunings. But god 45-100 is crazy for periphery.

[@inma-3427]

fantastic! I have one question . Please tell me the gauge of strings you used.

[@dividedbytimestudios]

Cant say I was a big periphery fan, but if it was mixed with the bass out front like this, it would be much cooler

[@EnkoVel]

Is there any chance you will cover "Flatline"?

[@renholder1987]

Awesome... been worndering for a long if its doable to play it without pick and multiscale bass :D

[@jc8liter2388]

Amazing cover, dude. What's your signal chain looking like these days?

[@tobiastnielsen9262]

Alright dude as allways, AWESOME COVER!! But can you please try to make a video about, how you get your tones (Ryan Martine !!!) That would be awesome :D And as allways, nice fucking job XD

[@blackdogg0074]

Fuckin luv it man

[@TheIntelligentView]

What is your video release schedule, 2 videos a year??

[@Armazillo]

Bad ass as ass. Love it.

[@itsbaconforlunch]

You should play some Soften the Glare

[@jamieyoungson]

Any tabs? One I have has tuning in A on the E string!

[@7sloth]

That’s the correct tuning man. Pretty low for sure, better played on a long/extended scale bass or a 5 string. I raised the action very high on my bass to pull it off.

[@Smauli]

WHAT THE FUCK

[@blackdogg0074]

Picturesque do re mi bass cover please

[@OlegRevulet]

better than original one

[@F2XPR02P3C7]

u should cover head crusher by megadeth

[@coleford4258]

[@yacobarlan]

[@markelvina785]

This guy plays like ryan martine

[@demongrunt7]

That was awesome minus the sliding back and forth part that could go. Lol

[@LovingGoodContent]

The slidey bit is part of the song

[@dustinhowell1918]
