The "swell" sound with the octave pedal and volume pedal is so sick! Some of the cleanest playing I've ever seen on bass, too. Forever an awesome influence, Amos!
Things you couldn’t possibly do better: -Tonality. Its not in your face and knows its place -Performance. You play where you’re needed. No “lead bass” bull. -Pocket sewn together with nylon straps. Jesus.
Been a fan of you since I was a kid listening to Ms. Swift. Love your playing sir! And love the kicks too! 🙂 Thank you so much for being an inspiration.
Considering how much 🔥 you were unleashing in minute four, the most impressive thing in this performance is how straight ahead you managed to keep it in minute two! But your face is like LET ME LOOSE while you’re doing it 😆👊🙌👏
That's a very inspiring video Nothing over the top, a coherent use of your gear and some tasty adlibs Good work, I really liked your work on the bridge
You are one of my favorite bass demo artists on TH-cam. Tasteful playing, great tone, well-produced videos, and really good real-world advice. I play classic new wave, soul and straight ahead rock and your ADAM demo basically sold me an ADAM based on the cabsims and more subtle tones. Darkglass and other manufacturers need you helping them on product design and software updates to better tailor some of this gear to the majority of bass players who need to cover a lot of ground - not just Nuclear Dingwall stuff. I love lots of prog metal, but we need to cover a lot more real estate with pedals that cost $500+
First time I heard you play was on the dark ray demo omg I’m so into your playing it’s so spot on. Funky/metal was my thing but past few years I’ve gotten into a lot of pop and do like it a lot. Just keep the videos coming your awesome !!
@@AmosHeller i usually play classic rock from the 80s and stuff like that. I like the way you use effects on this song and in your other videos. Your videos have inspired me to learn more modern music and really learn how to and when to use effect pedals. Your channel is very inspiring sir
Tasteful playing and nice use of effects!! Just subscribed! Just got my Stingray Special H in simple black a few weeks ago though I gotta say I‘m intrigued by the HH version. Which Coils did you use for your cover? And what do you think about the HH in comparison to the H?
Thank you! Much appreciated. I usually leave this one on the bridge pickup/classic stingray setting. Truth to tell I run it like a regular stingray most of the time. Currently the neck pickup is an option of a place to anchor my right hand!
I don't think people realize how good this is. Absolute pocket playing, sounds/effects are perfect, and bass faces are elite. 10/10.
@@SaxonBryantBass that’s really kind of you to say! I had a lot of fun playing this
Incredible to see a top tier professional sharing his craft

I just found Amos searching dark glass and I’m thrilled. You are extremely talented and don’t over play like a psycho.
Thanks!
@@AmosHeller your bass demos are really good, clear and concise with some sick riffs that stick in my head so bad I have to learn them.
Things you couldn’t possibly do better:
-Tonality. Its not in your face and knows its place
-Performance. You play where you’re needed. No “lead bass” bull.
-Pocket sewn together with nylon straps. Jesus.
You’re too kind my friend. Thanks for the words, thanks for listening. More to come. Open to ideas.
Listening to this just leaves me smiling. Love it.

You noticed! 👟
@@AmosHeller Heck yeah! Killer J's!

I appreciate your work on putting this out there Amos! I hope to catch you somewhere soon!
The tone at 2:43 good heavens 😍
😂😂
Wow this is on another level !
great playing!! (and fantastic t-shirt as well)
Thanks and thanks!

Well done King Amos.
Wow 🤩 this is awesome 👌
I Love the groove in this song 🎧
The way you blended with the feel of the song is so beautiful 😍
Thanks for sharing 🤗
Thank you!
Incredible. I’m in awe and super inspired. Thanks for the performance.
More of these videos, please! A lot more, please please please! :)

Thank you NJB!
wow , its not overpowering its so suttle and yet the bass is just perfect , i love your channel hey🤗😝
Wow. Awesome cover !! 0:39 that's what I call juicy swells.
Thanks!
holy fuck, the tone!! It all sounds fantastic. As the other guy said, those swells are something else!
Thanks! It was a fun challenge to get it to sound like sidechain compression.
@@AmosHeller And you nailed it ! 🔥
Congratsss...so sweet and fresh!!!
This is so awesome 😍
That’s a pricey pedalboard, I’m jealous hehe. Great playing as always. Btw, the stingray is ohhhh my.
Thanks! Yeah I’m slowly but surely falling in love with this thing
Best video I've ever seen
Woah thanks!
Your playing is so inspiring. 👍
Man this was awesome. Great playing. Just inspired me to learn different stuff with my bass guitar
Awesome! What kind of stuff?

This slaps! WP dude ♥
Nice pedalboard 👌 great cover!
sooo good !!!
0:38 what is about to happen here? Oh yes, that hits the spot. You make it look so easy.
Every video inspires me. I don't need my Moog Sub 37. lol.

lmao...searching this song to see if anyone has done a cover and lo(w) and behold Amos has already killed it 🤣🤣 back to the drawing board I guess
Now I need a volume pedal 😍😍
Great cover man! What strings are you using?
How often do you find yourself needing to simulate that sidechain ducking effect? It seems all over the place in modern pop.
Love the vids!
Cheers
hell yeah
Thought this song would sound better with an actual bass. Found this video and I was right. Now I'm pricing pedals.
Hi Amos, what are your go to bass strings? Do you prefer rounds or flats? Best wishes! 🏴
😬
Great playing and use of pedals. Love the MXR octave pedal, did you change the internsl mid boost setting?
Thanks! I love it too. And... I didn’t know about the internal Mid switch until you asked! So to answer your question: not yet
@@AmosHeller wow, can't believe this is a year ago! Did you experiment with the mid boost or are you happy the way it is?
Taylor's bassist can be ariana's bassist too
Was the original track done with a bass or was it a keyboard?
I don’t know, but it sounds like key bass to me
Do you have tabs by any chance?
I don’t. Sorry! This is a thing I cobbled together by ear
@@AmosHeller oh, that is sad
But nice cover!
ruined me.
