TOOL- Rosetta Stoned Bass Cover 2020- HD

[@joshuagordon8590]

Im going to have to go to rehab for addiction to that tone

[@jasondoolin6476]

If I could like this again, I would 😂

[@thesupremeduck]

alrighty then, picture this if you will

[@Kanikacyst]

All those variations and strange rhythms make this song really challenging to master, in my opinion at least... And you did mastered it!

[@TOOLbassplayer]

@Kanikacyst - thank you for the kind words!!!

[@darkySp]

Yeah, it's difficult to remember when to play the variations. You play it to a backing track, you miss it and you immediately go "fuck, man!" and start over.

[@jasondoolin6476]

Uncle Ben? 😂

[@seeemsee]

Super good! I absolutely love the bass from Rosetta Stoned! Great cover. Justin is incredible.

[@parkerdavidson5868]

This cover was absolutely phenomenal dude. Your original was already great but you can see you've gotten even better in this one. Also at 10:40, it's okay Justin did the same exact thing in one of the live videos of this song LOL

[@TOOLbassplayer]

Thank you for the kind words!! 😀🙏🏻

[@timcole421]

Killed it man, every nuance, every effect, every accent that makes it right. Well done....bad ass song too

[@ryangriffith3729]

Brad if u keep posting videos im gonna have to pick up my bass again Brad my finger tips are soft

[@TOOLbassplayer]

@Ryan Griffith - mine were too until 3 weeks ago. 😂🤣😂🤣

[@darkySp]

Go get those calluses! Don't be a coward!

[@SterlingSimmons22]

I can see slight disappointment in your face after seemingly the only tiny little mistake you made in the entire song at the outro 🤣 amazing cover. Man so many parts to remember. Always love coming back to these videos to see just how much of an amazing bassist JC is.

[@realbourbonniere15]

That was so good. Every details I had missed from the original just appeared so vividly! Thanks so much for this great cover. Awsome!

Amazing, man !! So beautiful. You nail the Justin’s tone ! Bravo maestro !!!! Thanks for sharing this !

@@psycho_lobster thank you! 🙏🏻

[@Rikmyers]

dude this part 6:02 is speechless

[@AlteredPhotons]

I watched this video a year ago and it inspired me to learn it. Today marks the day I can finally play it all the way through. Enough cannot be said of how much repetition and discipline it takes to learn all those parts. Good job man! (your tone made me pee a little)

[@TOOLbassplayer]

@@AlteredPhotons wow! Thank you for sharing! Yes these songs are very challenging to pull off and I’ve been doing it for 23 years! 🙏🏻🙏🏻 well done and congratulations!

[@AlteredPhotons]

@@TOOLbassplayer I have to ask, is your hair real in that video?

[@TOOLbassplayer]

@@AlteredPhotons are you really asking that? Look at most of my other videos. 😀🤣

[@FredHampshire]

Incredibly well played mate, and that bass tone is just thunderous wow

[@TOOLbassplayer]

@@FredHampshire thank you very much

[@EmptyDomoKanti99]

cosplay on point EDIT: i’m glad the auto wah sounds like it does, cuz i’ve seen covers where the auto wah just makes me giggle

[@TOOLbassplayer]

@c.a.t.wes - that’s because I’m using the Guyatone BR-2 that Justin uses on the recording. 😀

[@EmptyDomoKanti99]

TOOLbassplayer oh, you didn’t use the MXR? i know the BR-2 is pretty intense, but i wasn’t expecting it to sound like that

[@TOOLbassplayer]

@c.a.t.wes - nope. I used the MXR on the stinkfist live extended that I just posted.

[@EmptyDomoKanti99]

TOOLbassplayer ok cool, thank you for the responses!

[@mtczrnk]

Someone is absolutely on fire recently :D

[@TOOLbassplayer]

@Lance Schpann - thank you! 🙏🏻 More coming!!

[@sirhandelno3]

My favorite song. Keep it going man

[@sethshaw4830]

I wish Justin wasnt so buried in the mix. His playing is so fucking good. Great cover

[@honeybadger1810]

@9:25 I found that shit so funny 😂

[@greganderson2239]

Tool kicks ass and you do justice to Justin’s riffs 🤘🤘

[@christmeister]

What an awesome cover! Also nice hair 👍

[@enteringreality6321]

Going off bro

[@gordykeefers]

Thanks for leaving in the oops. Great job Brad!

[@TOOLbassplayer]

@gordykeefers - ha! I always record audio first and then video. I played the song pretty well and I screwed up at the very end- lol- lost concentration and no way was I going to go back and do it all over again. Heck with that! This was take 1! 😀😀🤓🤓🤣🤣

[@rosencranceneil]

The song sounds even better with more bass in the mix. Awesome cover!

[@TOOLbassplayer]

🙏🏻

[@jaeruskris]

Nicely played!!!

[@fortressdude1]

Great job man!

[@bdoubleuv1080]

good tone, nice feel. a lot of (the more-viewed) covers always seem so stiff, good job with grooving with it!

[@TOOLbassplayer]

Thank you!

[@3three3three3three]

great cover. would you be willing to post the isolated bass track? it's nowhere on youtube

[@TomekDrabas]

Jeezus, those rythms... No wonder I’m in love with their music... Great work as always! What’s your sound stack (amps, effects) these days?

Now you done it! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@wimpytheory8053]

hey im a young bass player and I was wondering how you got down the rhythm at 7:04

[@TOOLbassplayer]

Hello young man. I promise this answer is not in any way facetious. You have to practice. It’s as simple as that. The timing of this part of the song is tricky. When I first started playing bass (especially Tool) I just practiced and practiced until I got the rhythm, tempo down. Eventually you will get it. This is not an easy song to play at all. As a beginner I would start with songs like Stinkfist which to me, has an easier groove with some pretty cool parts but not too tricky. Appreciate the question and let me know how else I can help! 🙏🏻

[@ronaldp.vincent8226]

I. Want. A. Wal.

[@BrainWasherAttendent]

Damn I wish I could get a Wal. I don’t even think they take orders anymore.

[@honeybadger1810]

stack up the bread and keep your eyes open. They consistently pop up pretty much every month, if not more than that. There's a couple for sale now if you have the dough.
