Red Hot Chili Peppers - "Give It Away" (Instrumental Bass Cover)

[@piotrkondzioka4009]

Omgggg I listened to this bassline YESTERDAY and wondered how it would sound if YOU would play it!!!! We're living in simulation. You're real R O C K E R 💜

[@kellogc]

We’re ALL connected! I hope it was within your expectations 👊🏻

[@kondziolkaptr]

@@kellogc it did as hellll, I love this amazingly original Wal tone🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@kaitlynx1388]

One of the funkiest sweetest bass lines of all time. Absolutely love that you did this one instrumental - it really showcases the vibrancy and beauty of the music. Fantastic job Kello!!! Love Love Love ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

[@kellogc]

Thanks a lot. I’m glad you enjoyed it! 😍

Eres MUY grande Kello hermano!! Te sigo desde hace un tiempo, y lo que veo en tí es LA HOSTIA!! Llevas el groove en las venas! Pero lo mejor es que así lo transmites hermano! Estoy aprendiendo contigo solo viendote disfrutar tocando este hermoso instrumento lo que nunca he aprendido en 30 AÑOS, y nadie consiguió enseñarme!! SALUD!!

[@kellogc]

Thanks for sticking around and watching: 🤘🏻☺️🤘🏻

[@xmonox50]

I haven’t touched my bass in probably a decade. Watching your videos gave me the itch again, especially watching you play Pantera - Revolution is my Name. Keep it up! Would love to hear you play some Lamb of God. John Campbell is up there.

[@kellogc]

Thank you! Let’s play some bass! 👊🏻

[@DiegoSilva-gw4tv]

Pequeñas variaciones en una línea de bajo sólida y constante, pero no menos complicada para mi ..Kello siempre he pensado que para llegar a crear un acompañamiento en bajo es tan difícil ya sea simple como complicado, el cómo decidir qué es lo mejor para tal o cual melodía para mi es lo más relevante, muchas gracias estimado y mucha salud.

[@och70]

Not one of Flea's toughest bass lines. No crazy slap pyrotechnics. This groove is so great it doesn't need anything else.

[@andraskarajos]

It is funny there is a video in which the producer asks Flea to hold back, and don't overcomplicate this riff. So maybe it wasn't on him this didn't go all crazy.

[@och70]

@@andraskarajos That sounds familiar. Was that in their "Behind the Music" episode on VH1?

[@kellogc]

You know, the complexity on this one lies on keeping the attitude, the groove locked and while keeping it simple. Ya his song requires focus to make it sound right. 🤘🏻

[@dmoore0079]

@@andraskarajos It's a documentary called "Funky Munks". It's covers the making of Blood Sugar Sex Magik and has tons of great footage of some of their recording takes as well as their lives in the mansion they were recording in.

[@cwilliamsphoto]

@@andraskarajos You would be correct! Rick Ruben (producer) gets him to hold back and keep the line simple. Flea does add in little fills when it's played live, but since he's not bound by anything else but the main riff he can throw whatever he wants in there.

[@DERRICK_McLOVIN]

Outstanding job as usual! Kello is one of those guys that I give a thumbs up to before I even watch the video because I know he is going to nail it! 👍

[@keeprocking3620]

Can we take a moment to appreciate this thick tone? What's your signal chain? This is the best non-overdriven bass tone I've heard.

[@kellogc]

Thanks! Just going thru Compressor and Sansamp BDDI, then to an Aguilar DB751 with Ampeg 8x10 cab using an MD521 mic (all on the Helix)

[@kellogc]

Thank you! Sorry to hear about your videos being blocked. Hopefully you’ll find a way around it! 👊🏻

[@jasonclark9851]

He's even covering it on a WAL 🔥🔥🔥

[@organicmechanic5150]

I've played this track the finger I use for the slide actually started bleeding from constantly sliding up and down the board. If I heard this without watching you play, I swear it would be Flea.

[@kellogc]

Thank you! Even though it’s relatively simple, you need to focus to make it sound right 👊🏻

[@organicmechanic5150]

@@kellogc it is basic theory wise, but yes you nailed it with that comment. Hitting those slides and getting the right note at each fret takes a lot of practice, but it's a fun track to play. Blood Sugar Sex Magic is one of those albums you have to learn start to finish. Sir Pysco and Apache Rose are great tracks.

[@plexiglasseye]

Sounds so good and fabulous playing! Question as I'm thinking of putting in an order for a Wal (mmmm... yeah I know about the waiting list to preorder... ugh). I'm wondering how the MK1 balances for you when sitting /standing? I test drove a MK2 once and found it very hard to balance on my knee when playing seated. How's the MK1 in that regard? Thanks!!

[@kellogc]

Thanks! I think the shorter horns help with balance overall. You’ll love your Wal 👊🏻

What the strings do you use? Sounds good! How often do you change strings?

[@kellogc]

Thanks. I use DR Hi beams. It depends, if I’m touring I may change from every week to every month. For basses I keep in my studio it may even be 6 months to a little over a year depending in how much use they get.

[@serchxd3456]

Soy nuevo en esto del bajo pero mi pregunta es ¿Cómo le das ese sonido a tu bajo? Yo quisiera sonar así igual de bien

[@kellogc]

Son muchas variables, el instrumento usado, el procesamiento (Pedales), amplificación, cuerdas y lo más importante el toque de la mano
