Nirvana - Big Cheese (Guitar Cover)

[@Tomnedreb]

Most people forget the fact that Big Cheese was the first ever Nirvana song officially released as Love Buzz is a cover. - Tom

[@braineater2930]

I never knew this song was this easy to play. At first I was like "okay Kurt, keeping it simple I see, gonna throw me a curveball though right?" But it just kept it's simplicity. Crazy to think that this song got me hooked and I never learned how to play it

[@Tomnedreb]

It's also such a funny song to play, one of my favorite jam to songs:)

[@braineater2930]

+Tomnedreb I want to thank you, I learned a lot of songs from you, keep up the good work!

[@marty3848]

That high scream at 1:59 is one of his best screams ever

[@-solidsnake-]

The one at 1:37 sounds like Homer Simpson every time haha

[@Tomnedreb]

If Nirvana had their way, the flipside of their debut 7-inch would have been whole lot blander. Engineer Jack Endino has said the group originally recorded "Blandest," for their Sub Pop Singles Club B-side. "The song is called 'Blandest' for a reason," the engineer said, because they were disgruntled with the fact that Sub Pop big cheese Jonathan Poneman wanted them to record a cover -- Shocking Blue's "Love Buzz" -- for the A-side. When they were done with the "Blandest" session, they slugged out "Big Cheese," a heavy, hate-filled invective about Poneman ("He was being so judgmental about what we recorded," Cobain said), and the track wowed Endino because it was "livelier." The engineer was able to convince the band to use that as their B-side instead. Equipment used: Fender Jag-Stang, Boss DS-1 and Fender mustang IV amp. Tuning: Standard Lyrics: Big cheese - make me Mine says, "Go [to] the office" Big cheese - make me Mine says, "One that stays" Black is black, straight back Need more enemies Show you all what a man is Need more ememies Big lies - make my Mine says "Go [to] the office" Big cheese - make me Message? What is it? Black is black, straight back Need more enemies She is glue, how are you? Big cheese - make me Mine says "Go [to] the office" Big cheese - make me Message? What is it? Black is black, straight back Need more enemies She is glue, how are you? Black is black, straight back Need more enemies Sure you are, but what am I? Need more enemies She is glue, how are you? Need more enemies Sure you are, but what am I?

[@phenomenal6507]

School is the best guitar solo

[@followfornothing]

[@johnreno9020]

Sweet channel I can dig it !!!!

[@Coffinliver]

I was expecting you to do the Homer Simpson yell that Kurt does 😂

[@gustavosanchez1621]

Great as always Tom! Do you mind if I ask how much you got your Jag-Stang for? And also what year is it?

[@Bryan-hl4yp]

He didnt tell you because you have an anime profile pic.

[@rockybalboafreak]

Cover Love Buzz! :)

[@usslongbeachcg9]

the Jason Everman way of playing this song is totally acceptable lol.all kidding aside great cover!

[@lilmuff1020]

Like A Guitar Of Cobain :0

[@natbarton755]

Lil Muff Kurt Cobain actually designed that specific guitar model that Tom is using in the video. It’s called the Fender Jag-Stang (because it’s a mix between a jaguar and a mustang). So you are exactly correct. It is a guitar of Cobain.

[@physicalzeppelin2326]

wait wait wait wait... are you the guy that comes out in the Nirvana documentary Nirvana: The Ultimate Review??

[@עמריבכר-ב7ו]

Hey tomnedreb this video is nice but can you play in the next video nirvana "love buzz" Guitar cover ?

[@migueltavares1202]

1:24 after 1:30 note by note please???? thanks tom....

[@zac107]

A string 2nd fret powerchord. Open g string. 1st fret d string. Open d string. 3rd fret A string. Finally an open A. Then repeat.

[@ayemod2k]

bro the solo is dead on why my power chords dont sound like this high up on the fret.. i checked intonation

[@DaLeSy.]

I think you should create a course teachings us nirvana fans how to play all of these nirvana songs. It can be hard to figure it sometimes from a cover. Then you can link to your course under all your cover videos and make a ton of money.

[@gabrieleabrate303]

the T-shirt wowww

[@horrorbusiness78]

On the album version does anyone else hear some kind of phasing effect on the guitar during chorus? (Where Kurt sings black is black etc)

[@LithiumWV]

Hey Tom I just wanted to ask what kind of recording setup you use for your videos? Like what kind of camera and editing software do you use? I really want to start making more videos for my channel and very excited to start doing my own covers. Since I finally have the money and school is out it would be the perfect time to get back into KZbin. Really good Big Cheese cover too, Bleach has to be my favorite Nirvana album!

[@Tomnedreb]

Lithium WV Hey, man! I use a Sony Handycam that's all. No editing or any modifications to sound or picture.

[@LithiumWV]

Tomnedreb Thanks! :)

[@treadh2o612]

Hey Tom, wat year is ur DS-1? caz i read something that the DS-1 was discontinued after the release of the DS-2. and it said that the DS-1 was rereleased and actually sounds slightly different to the one Kurt used.

[@Tomnedreb]

Andrew Treadway Yeah, I read the same. Not sure which year model, but I have a reissue.

[@treadh2o612]

cool thanks. just bought one. :)

[@treadh2o612]

nice cover btw

[@Aaron-jn9me]

What your doing at 1:31, is that an octave chord?

[@Tomnedreb]

No, just a regular power chord.

[@firedragonofevil]

Hey man how do you achieve that tone during the solo? It sounds great

[@Tomnedreb]

Hey! it's just the ds-1 and my amp, no other effects used. Obviously I always try to find the right amp settings for each song I cover, but can't really remember how this one was..

[@firedragonofevil]

+Tomnedreb ah I see thanks, also uh... Do you recommend the amp that you use? And is there any other amps that you particularly like for punk/ rock music

[@Tomnedreb]

I always put a list of equipment in the vid description, but the amp was a fender mustang IV

[@chiefmangas2367]

How do you do the beginning by turning the knobs to get that sound?

[@chiefmangas2367]

Nathan P thanks

[@WithTheLightsOut-id8pg]

Where did you learn how to play guitar and how long have you been playing guitar :)

[@Tomnedreb]

+With The Lights Out 1989 Never took a lesson, learned everything from watching Kurt play. He was the reason I started playing about 15 years ago.

[@whitesabbath6581]

R.I.P. Kurt Cobain (1967-1994)

[@timkletskin3038]

Hello, What guitar amplifier do you use?

[@Tomnedreb]

Fender Mustang IV

[@thefakengx3839]

It’s so sad kurt didn’t really play the jagstang much

[@nirvanafan715]

[@kinleysmith5245]
