Toxic (Britney Spears) - Bass Cover with tabs

[@drwhave]

I seriously can't get enough of this normie-looking guy funking out to Britney in 2020, very good stuff! And nice playing too. Special thanks for the tabs.

[@felipecuenca2811]

very good cover, the riffs are tricky to memorize, but I'm on my way

[@javawocky_bass1485]

So much fun when you nail it though.

[@JCloyd-ys1fm]

Good delivery and great performance. The non-bass sections were hilarious. What’s a bass player to do? Lol

[@javawocky_bass1485]

Drink coffee ;)

Thank you so much for posting this. I’m currently writing a cover of this song and was struggling to figure out the bass sections notes. I find videos like this more helpful than just listening to the song or only reading sheet music. It really helps to hear the bass louder than it’s originally played in the song

[@warchild4974]

Don't have to like Britney's actual songs, but her bass player sure knows how to write some awesome riffs. Like Oops!... I Did Again, that one slaps! Well done, the video was very enjoyable. I find these songs will help any bass player with practicing certain techniques, or just good for general practice!

[@maltes9666]

I love this. Trying it right now & and it's a lot of fun.

[@javawocky_bass1485]

Chuffed you are learning it. I enjoyed making the vid and learning the song.

[@sniv14]

This video's pretty funny, and the bassline looks fun as well. Guess I'll learn this one next. Thank you for this!

[@biabarbar]

Awesome cover!! Thank you 🙌♥️

[@javawocky_bass1485]

I think I need to go back and play this agin - just for fun. Thanks!

[@august4221]

Cool !! Thank you !

[@bitbirdies443]

Really cool I’ve been looking up bass covers because I want to pick up bass I love this

[@holyshroom2002]

Thanks for this! I’ve been practicing today and I’ve nearly got it!

[@javawocky]

Magic - do post your version if you can ;)

[@papatilio928]

You got it?

[@daanmeere]

Fantastic performance! Thanks for sharing this great vid! 👌🏾

[@andyscott2626]

Still hard-even with the written instructions 😂 Well done!

[@alexlinkinparkful]

Awesome work sir.

[@in3432]

Iam sorry if I am wrong. but you don't play 2--2-2-2-2- at the second, you are playing at the fifth. I am a newbie so ignore me if I am wrong.

[@javawocky_bass1485]

Hi Thanks for the comment! One of the first things my father showed me was to use all 4 fingers, on per fret. This means you don't have to move your hand up and down the neck constantly. Reason I played it like this. Tone is better. Can reach to all notes in the riff quickly. But yeah make it your own when you do your version, I did.

@@javawocky_bass1485 Thank you for reply and advice.

[@jasonhollis1254]

@@javawocky_bass1485 okay that makes sense but if you’re going to do that why not write that tab down The exact way you’ve played it? Because I’m trying to follow you and it makes it very confusing

[@javawocky_bass1485]

Hi @@jasonhollis1254 and @IN3.. first of all sorry for the confusion, I should have checked the tab a bit more carefully. I usually check and correct the tab as I go but sometimes there can be discrepancies. When I do a video this typically the work flow Listen to the song, and write the tab. Practice till my fingers hurt and revise the tab. *this may be were things went south or I didn't update everything. Record 4x takes in Logic and the iPhone. Edit the audio in Logic selecting the best parts of the takes - yes I mess up often :P Dump the iPhone takes into Final Cut and the audio from Logic, faff around with syncing 4x videos and audio together Cut between the different shots Produce the Tab lower third by copying and pasting the original Tab - this is painful * More possible errors creep in here. Colour grade and effects etc then upgrade to YT Anyway, point is this takes a LOT of time so it is possible not ever step goes perfectly. I do like this song, I may remake it in future, but for now I hope you at least got some value out of it.

[@javawocky_bass1485]

Well you are partly in luck! kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZPIk2ased95e6M

[@Milktacheable]

Awesome! Maybe push the bass slightly up in the mix for clarity?

[@dylanjimenez4230]

Its a really fun song to learn and a really good video, is there a way you can send me the version that you are playing without the bass?

[@dylanjimenez4230]

[@chriswalkerbass]

well done !

[@javawocky_bass1485]

Much appreciated. Worked hard on this one. Was very disappointed my first upload was blocked for copyright. But I removed the music video which was on the top right and it went through ok.

[@trevsaudio]

Nice job!

[@javawocky_bass1485]

Can tell a lie, I did chop the best bits from the 4 takes... but don't tell anyone!

[@LayneStaley999]

I dont know but i love the intro where u dont play ahahahah

If you want a laugh go check out my Hit Me Baby One more time vid, lots of bloopers there.

[@gowerski]

i'm learning this on bass to impress ladies, does it work?

[@YuNG_SaM1Ch]

Good job!

[@ishak4art]

I like it. More videos.

[@javawocky_bass1485]

Thanks. Working on one at the mo but it is taking me a little longer than usual to get it down... Slap and all that.

[@biomecaman3514]

took a few try's?

[@javawocky_bass1485]

Ah yes, this feels like a lifetime ago, but for some odd reason I decided to do a full take without intercutting takes. Possibly as I thought this would be easy. Nowday's I cut 4x takes together so I have less blisters on my fingers.

[@Pertamax7-HD]

nontoxic bass
