Bryan is as humble and affable guy, as you'd ever want to meet. He said that he couldn't learn the song off of Master of Puppets so he worked on a technique that worked for him. He didn't claim that this was the "Beller-Technique" or that he promoted. He only indicated that it was a technique in his bag of amazing tricks!
I love when heavy metal dudes are so well spoken
THANK You for the fast play technic. I'm a disabled vet who is learning how to play because a friend suggested it would help as a form a meditation. I can't play fast cause of some of my issues. this helps me.... sooo much
The tremolo technique he's showing, is actually very inaudible in a mix.
I would suggest you use a pick, use 3 finger Technique like in most of death metal bands, or just play what ever sounds best, you don't have to play every single note the guitar plays, the people care more about hearing bass in general than speed.
Thank you for your service brother. Army 1990.
He plays so effortlessly!
zlatan playing bass?
Awesome player with some sick techniques. Hands down one of the best metal bassists out today.
Always did this with my 4 strings, just buy a 5 string set and have the bridge/action set up nicely. Tuned in drop B, sometimes drop A.
He DID develop it, if he didn't know they did the same thing, he developed it all on his own, he never claimed anything else.
totally amazing! i've always wanted to be different in drop tuning down all of my four bass strings (when the five string bass became popular) which sounds awesome to me.
Not looking for an intertube argument - quote - "There this other technique I developed....." Any player worth his salt has developed - his or her technique - relevant to their instrument. Contextually - you're welcome to hear arrogance - clearly not the intent but understand your comment
Bryan is so awesome!! I'd love to meet him!! Gene is one Hella killer drummer!!
This guy has some amazing techniques
That guy just within frame head banging XD
3:12 If I had a Pick, what would I do? (Plays fast Tremolo).
that 2 fingers technique to stroke is dope!
Dude as a software engineer i can relate in saying that *I* invented half of the design pattern that everybody use, if only someone had showed me those books earlier...
This is one smart dude.
wow, picking that fast using finger only!
I was standing right next to this guy at the Steve Vai concert in Nashville
really want him to talk about his SWR bass rig
Cool clinic. Those are pretty beefy string gauges even considering tuning to C. I tune to BEAD with 60-120.
Went up a half step to C with a .130 stainless set since that's what my nut is cut for. My left hand is killing but at least i know I'm not going sharp unless I'm playing with a sledgehammer lol.
Bryan Beller is awesome!
Wow I didn't know Zlatan played bass for Dethklok
You guys are exactly right; every player develops their own technique. No two pairs of hands are the same and everyone will have their own approach, even if another musician has already taken a very similar approach.
hez1919 is taking his words out of context.
And these Prosteels last a very long time!
I wonder if he has spoken about why he is so persistent to use his fingers when playing metal.
While I think it's very cool that he has come across a technique so that he can play with the same speed as a pick, I wonder why he didn't decide to use a pick? It just seems to me to be the obvious solution
Preference.
Pick bass just doesn't sound that great for metal
his wife must be a happy woman
Zach Davies there's no such thing as a happy woman.
why? who the fuck fingers their woman? you fuck, clearly you're a virgin
Azer lolidiot
@@azer8308 You're obviously vanilla as fuck and don't what the clit is.
@@Rhino873 hahahaha
Thunderbird!
Its' a Thunderbird Copy essentially, by a Company called Mike Lull.
Lmao me and bryan beller have the the same tremolo picking technique
Check out the bass player from Deadlands
I started doing the fast picking technique on my own. I'm glad that great minds think alike
Such light touches makes the punches. I need a lighter touch
If he didn't like the strings feeling like telephone cables, what if he got flatwound strings?
Ibrahimovic...?
Dave Navarro in the intro?
For what it's worth, Geddy Lee only uses one finger for that method while Bryan uses two fingers. He obviously means he discovered it by himself when he says "developed this technique"
Can do the same using the double thumb technique. Can get the bell like tones by using more nail on the upstroke. Cool there are so many techniques to achieve a sound or speed
I know it’s an old comment but the main difference is geddy plucks ery very hard and uses his nails a lot while bryan uses his fingertips very gently, so yeah he definitely got there in his own right
I bought a set of 5 strings for my 4 string bass and the low b didn't fit
Gotta file out the nut just a bit to make it work
sounds like High ole silver away. The lone ranger.
I couldn't understand what he means after taking only low four strings of 5s set and than instead of dropping he tunes higher? or what he means
he takes the B E A D strings, tunes them up a half step to C F Bb and E
That will destroy neck no?
its quite tough on the truss rod, yeah
LawmenTV Acho Bzhalava owenmcburns I think as you keep stretching the Strings each time you tune, the tension decreases a bit.

Guys when i can get heavier strings than 145? 145 is fine for A0 but u known G#/G ? huh :D?
Ibrahimovic on Bass
damage incorporated :D
what bass is at? I need to know
Mike Lull
thx man
theres two paths you can go by with what he said, theres no one way to say things
can anyone explain the benefits of playing metal fingerstyle as opposed to with a pick? i play fingerstyle funk/pop/whatever else and can also play with a pick, don't really see the merit in spending so much time developing that 3 finger technique instead of just using a pick. thoughts?
because playing without a pick is metal. playing with a pick is artificial because all the greats used their fingers. and what if your at a gig, and dont have a pick and no one else has a pick?
ok good points. btw are u srs or trolling?
Brandon M of course im serious
oldGnRrocks1 "All the greats used their fingers". Really? Don't be so ignorant. Plenty of great players across genres (Paul McCartney, Carol Kaye, Phil Lesh, Mike Gordon, Chris Squire, Mike Rutherford, Lemmy and Dave Ellefson come to mind) play with picks.
one of the greatest bassist of all time, and of course im talking about cliff burton, used his fingers. and honestly, i dont have time to have a whole petty conversation about this with you
These are all pretty standard metal techniques though.
I was doing all of this stuff in my old band about ten years ago.
It is. But not many intermediate books for bass cover this unless it is bought exclusively for metal bass.
Helps beginners get an idea what metal bass can really do
Why not just use a set of regular strings? I tune low on bass (and guitar) and use regular strings and it sounds just fine
It certainly depends on how low you tune and the scale length of your instrument! Lots of options with a healthy dose of subjectivity! Thanks for watching.
I tune mostly in D standard and drop C, but I've gone as low as drop G and had no problems
Karl Pogue Try using lower strings and you'll notice a huge difference
1guitarfreak4 Currently my fender has a set of low strings on it and I've been using open g and it's held up pretty nicely. I don't wanna use too low of a set of strings because I use a lot of different tunings
Karl Pogue But to tune that low with Standard Strings you have to raise the action a good bit or else the Strings will be too floppy. I currently play with a Band who tune down to Drop C... I don't have a 5 String at the moment so I de-tune one of my 4-Strings...I don't particularly like playing in Low C cos I like to have the reference on the Bass in Standard 4ths, so while the Guitars are tuned to C, I tune to low B. Basically the standard low tuning of a 5 String.
"Now thats Metal, okay?"
Why tf is toki on bass
This isn’t a drop tuning though. It’s just down tuned
I prefer to play bass with my fingers
what brand is that 'thunderbird' bass?
Mike Lull
Ibrahimovic bassist
What kind of bass is his 4 string?
It's like the Firebird from Epiphone
oh. cool
Its a Mike Lull Thunderbird shaped bass.
Damn murderface gets no respect lol
fingers>pick
Pick>fingers lol
Pick and fingers produce different tone and have unique advantages to both. Pick=Fingers. Every bassist is worse at one or the other, and wishes they were better at it.
But. I must say, as a bassist, I love the sound of fingered bass guitar :) It's my favorite.
It just depends on what you want out of the bass. You have someone like Geddy Lee who plays a reserved, simplistic bass. A pick would sound too sharp and choppy with that style. Then crazy technical bassists like Les Claypool and Flea, where a pick would just limit them because they're using pretty much every finger they have. But then you have someone like Justin Chancellor. Try playing any Tool song without a pick, I promise it won't sound good at all. It just depends on your own style and sound. One isn't better than the other.
in moments of confusion, I defer to Lord John Paul Jones. Play what the song needs using the technique the song needs for the sound the song needs etc etc etc. eg Be proficient in all methods...
This guy is the literal represantation of the cliche Rock/Metal has become
Good thing we don't have to pay attention to cliches and we can listen to whatever we want
his exact words, "i developed this technique" it doesnt matter how nice and whatever a person is. lots of great people make stupid arroagant comments without thinking about it first. sort of like you just did when you claim he said he didnt develop it when his words prove he did, watch it again
I've been tuning like that for 13-14 years....this guy makes it out to be some unknown technique
It's a class, he's just explaining his process. Shut up.
Word shut up
This guy isn't even good.play like clif or go home
I bet cliff is the only bassist you even care about. Fuck off. Cliff died in 1986 and all of you fanboys should have gone with him.
I could argue there are better bass player than cliff. Steve Harris, Les Claypool.
The bass god John Myung. If everyone played like cliff, not only would there be just ONE way of doing things, but metal would sound a lot more linear.
Also, he was *inspired* by cliff, not trying to be a cliff burton impersonator.
I like cliff too, but metal in bass had evolved before cliff, and will continue to evolve after him, just as music will evolve without the beatles and Michael Jackson
lov how he claims HE developed the finger/pick method, geddy lee does it too. so do probably every metal bassist that uses fingers. he is great and all, but really that is arrogant.
instead of "gallop",how about calling it "two eighth notes and a quarter note" using the right terminology
because metal
Because it's two sixtenths and an eight ;)
Because "gallop" is colloquial, you fuck.
MajinMind Lmao rekt
Joakim YesMan you're an idiot.
