Tips And Comments:
- Playing Technique: Played next to the bridge withmiddle strength. Both pickups on, full tone
- Gear Sound: Added low and high end, cut some mids (trying to emulate a kind of synth was not my goal really, just making it sit better on the song) Compression added and some chorus (stereo)
- About The Song: Transcribed from the studio version with help of clips and live videos (originally synth keyboard, adapted to bass)

Good line for practicing pick accuracy, staccato and rhythm (i decided to use a pick to emulate a little bit of the attack on the original song, you can use fingers). The track uses a keyboard to create a bass synth. I didn't go for trying to recreate that sound, and more for sitting the bass well on the mix. Sorry if it's not that audible. The line itself centers more on the tonic of each chord (except for the inversion on the chorus), marking it with octave movements on some parts. About harmony we're on a clear A Major with some issues:
A Major (F, C, G are #)
I A (A C# E)
II Bm (B D F#) or Bmadd9 (B D F# C#) or Bm7 (B D F# A) or Bm9 (B D F# A C#) for this case (extended harmony, coloring)
III C#m (C# E G#) or C#m7 (C# E G# B) for this case (extended harmony)
IV D (D F# A) or Dmaj7 (D F# A C#) for this case (extended harmony)
V E (E G# B) or E7 (E G# B D) for this case (extended harmony, dominant function) or E/G# (first inversion)
VI F#m (F# A C#)
bVII G (G B D) for this case (Mixolydian approach to A Major)
VII G#dim (G# B D)
Damn, this is gold.
Thanks for all this extra notes...Yes I liked this song for lots of reasons: first, the voices and the drawings from the video, then the bass but I always though it was just a synth one..
Really great job and accuracy from yours....Again, thks a lot!!
Whoms't he did
SUPURB
Yep, it's like a Genesis song...keyboard bass.
Just wondering if there are any non bassists appreciating this. Or are we just a gnarly group that will recognize and praise talent when it's deserved? Well done.
I don’t play but I’d seriously consider learning if I need a hobby or something.
I don't yet play but I'm also considering bass.
canopener505ify I love the bass all though I don’t play. The best part of this song is when the bass gets played on the second frets
I don't play bass but I appreciate the fuck outta bass lol
I am not a bassist (yet) but, I like his dude's vids
I don't think I ever appreciated how good of a bass line this actually is
The meme dream bass playing machine has gifted us with this pure act of God.
Niff Airlines nah that’s davie504 😏. HE IS THE MEME GOD FOR BASS. He’s awesome

Seth Belfort yes of course he is
@@willis251 Nope, he's just cancer for bass players.
@@terreausore2435 this guy has inspired thousands of young men to learn bass. What have you done for bass players besides talking with a big mouth?
What a perfect instrument...
And 69 likes 😎
It really is❤
As a drummer I always keep humming different bass lines to this song. I think it is the perfect song to practice all sorts of different bass lines and techniques.
I'm a bass player. I love when the rhythm slows down and the bass lime changes for 2 measures in the chorus
I just love how a bass player holds a song together !!!
What a pleasure to watch you play the bassline behind such a popular song!
As you say, "The track uses a keyboard to create a bass synth. I didn't go for trying to recreate that sound, and more for sitting the bass well on the mix". And that's the great thing!! I'm only an amateur bassist but I play electric guitar for many years and as every musician, professional or not, I'm interested in how a real bass fits on the mix. And you did a really great job!! Thanks for sharing!!
Which raises the question, why stick with the bass synth. Sure it sounds “cleaner” but the actually instrument gives so much sonic nuance that’s lost when you go with clean synthetic bass lines. You don’t realize how clever the bass lines are until you hear it actually played.
YOU'RE A LEGEND!!!!!!
PLEASE DON'T EVER STOP PUTTING THESE OUT!!!!!
Been along with a lot of your bass tabs. Thanks for putting these up! Really appreciate them.
Take on me from A-Ha ? That's my favourite song when i was Teeager, thank you for The Tablature Sir, i think i can play the Bass.
Only one place to come for all the best bass covers and that's right here folks.
Thanks for uploading. It's funny, I never realised just how much the bass featured in this song, till I played along to your tabs. A great example of less is more, just enough bass to make the song work, but not overdoing it.
Take on bass. 🧡😍🙌🏻
Gracias por poner también los acordes, tus vídeos son mas utiles de lo que te imaginas
I love that fade out matched with the fade to black
Exelente canal !!!!!!
Buena ejecución de tu instrumento
Ayudas bastante estuve viendo tus vídeos ya que buscaba covers y encontre este estupendo canal

me as a drummer , the bass is my foundation and pattern in playing. together many ideas will be develop.
Some surprising bits in there. Many thanks, and well done!
I never noticed how cool the bass for this was.

I watched this vid like 2 years ago and now ive got a bass
Excellent line! Congrats!!
Very satisfying to hear and see. Great job
Naw, he's the meme god. He gives us fellow bassists the ability to meme along and meme it out when showing up with friends at jam seshs.
Lol I didn't even know when i clicked the video that it was this song lmao. This song always makes me happy and laugh.
Nailing it as usual! ❤ It’s a really clever bass line!
What a fun bassline.
Muy bueno amigo.. excelente interpretación

PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEASEEEEEEEEEEEE

Rodrigo Teresa YEEEESSSSS
Well for Whiplash you just need two fast fingers for the gallop parts but Anesthesia? man i've been learning that song for 2 months (even tho i have the KEA bass tab book it's still frustrating playing anesthesia but pretty fun at the same time now i can play it perfectly) i'll recommend you some gear (sarcasm :D):
-Bass
-Electroharmonix Big Muff/Overdrive bass pedal
-Any type of amp
-3 fingers (or only 2 fast fingers if you want to show-off)
This is lovely thanks so much!

I played this song with my school when we went to Cuba, also can you do some more Primus covers like some stuff from their new album, preferably _The Seven_ or _The Scheme_ or some more Gorillaz?
