@@cerbi2720 it's also relatively easy to do. Not necessarily easy DURING a song, but producing it isn't too difficult. I can't slap for shit and I can do the funny noise
People say they quit when they see someone better than them, but I see it as a goal to reach. If one human can do one thing, another human can learn it.
Anyone else stuck at level 3? Jokes aside super cool to see a piece steadily grow and introduce techniques while never loosing the flow and sounding musical.
Dude, you inspired me to pick up the bass a few months back. I started attempting slap bass but I’m still on level two. Thanks for being such an inspiration!
You are single handedly the biggest reason I have seen any interest in the bass. it's such a beautiful instrument and connects with me like nothing else has. Thank you
Come to think of it, with the tapping and stuff he could prob outplay the likes of us with ONE hand, but hey.. Some days you want Bach (Beck, even) others Sonic Youth, right? @@ItsHeartstruck Long as you PLAY it and you FEEL it...
@@JiJk705 Bruh you're smoking something if you think Davie is a better bassist than Charles. Davie is good, really good even, but Charles is a true master.
Still can beleive what a bassist you are,you are born for play a bass guitar,talent plus work,you are the number one on the world!!!Very big Hello from Belgrade,Serbia!!!
When I realized I could properly do a double pop (Level 7), I remember feeling amazing. I thank you because I studied this technique seeing it from your video on the 500 thousand subscribers. Somewhere in the middle of the video, starting with the index finger on the A, you performed this technique perfectly, making me fall in love with it instantly. thanks Charles!!!
If you're wondering how he does it I'll fill you in. His life since he was a child is Bass, all day, every day. You practice and study to get this good. What are you waiting for!
Dude! You’re killing it. I don’t subscribe to many channels but I couldn’t pass up your subscribe button. Amazing bass work, you’ve earned my respect! ❤
I'm gonna comment on this video before I even watch it. I actually paused the video and haven't seen it yet. But I guarantee it is gonna be awesome. Showcasing his extreme talent. You rock, bro! I'm a guitar player and have never had the desire to learn the bass, but there are a few people who make me wanna learn it. Les Claypool, flea and you.
Absolutely the best bass player on planet earth today bar none, this guy is simply beyond brilliant and it’s not just his technique it’s his ear and composition skills, Charles fucking Berthoud ladies and gentlemen
6 is the best sounding. After that it becomes like those big band videos that get crazy technical and while they have their place I still think 6 is nicer on the ears
Its funny...for awhile there were the videos with these bass wars between other bassists. Charles was a part of that for a bit. He is so far past all of them now no one else stands a chance.
Noticing how low your left hand thumb sits is very eye opening.. I get cramps in my feet hand thumb a lot. I’m gonna try this technique of yours and see how it feels.
When you just learned the Alphabet in School, you didn't know how to write like Shakespeare either lol - practice! Even if you get comfortable with a Sonic Youth or Sid Vicious style, and you get some nice ideas to use YOUR fingers on YOUR song.. Then its cool, right?
Still swear you are the best bassist I’ve witnessed in my 40 years
I add in my 55
@@MrDanilop45 I add my 15

I agree, funny noise is the hardest technique ever (I unironically don't know how to do it haha)
You push the highest strong down to the side of fretboard while rubbing string on the keyboard. When you do it fast and hard enough it makes a sound
@@cerbi2720 it's also relatively easy to do. Not necessarily easy DURING a song, but producing it isn't too difficult. I can't slap for shit and I can do the funny noise
Me, listening and watching that part for 15 minutes and feeling like John Snow!
Hardest because it’s super hard to make it sound good 😂
@@cerbi2720help I can’t seem to do it 😭is it alright to explain again a little more detailed?
People say they quit when they see someone better than them, but I see it as a goal to reach. If one human can do one thing, another human can learn it.
Nobody says that
yeah don't quit there's famous bassists that only play E
visual artists keep saying it all the time@@michaelmansur6033
another human can learn it, but that doesn't mean you can, still no point in giving up though !
Yes exactly
Level 11: Play Seinfeld
Please no 🤣

That wasn't a real bass though...
That's why we love the bass. I wish more people realized its potential.
so true
Charles, this is one of the best uses of a YT short I've ever seen, mate. AND YOU'RE THE GOAT.
Why?
@@deeppurple5939"Goat" is short for "greatest of all time", so it's not an insult. 😂

Oh is this a @DAVIE504 Challenge?? Oohh BASS BATTLE !!!
I honestly have no clue why someone wouldn’t want to play bass, it’s sounds amazing
Anyone else stuck at level 3? Jokes aside super cool to see a piece steadily grow and introduce techniques while never loosing the flow and sounding musical.
I'm stuck at level 0.03..
Yeah level three... or like 2.8 idk. I started half a year ago though so it's fine I guess
I'd be willing to do stupid things just to get to level 3
would be nice to get my bass to sound nice at level 1
I think there’s a chance you’re the best bassist currently living
ichika nito. if you dont agree its fine but you gotta listen to that man at least once. he plays guitar too its pretty neat
@@JaggedElk ichika is a beast too. I thought he was primarily a guitarist that also slays on bass?
@@brennenconlee437 dude eats up on any string instrument swear
les claypool?
@@JaggedElkI feel like Ichika is known as a guitarist primarily though whereas Charles is a bass guy thru and thru
Send this to your crazy Italian counterpart

Lvl 10 is my favorite sound. I love when you fit it into songs.
The bass GOAT in my own honest opinion!!!
you are my number one inspiration to keep practicing everyday. i love your style of writing solos.
He’s amazing
Of all the bassists that are not Italian, he is one of them
*Davey504 wants to know your location*
Oh good, you provided the tabs. Let me just grab my bass😂
I know right ? Good luck with that !!!
Dude, you inspired me to pick up the bass a few months back. I started attempting slap bass but I’m still on level two. Thanks for being such an inspiration!
This is literally so mesmerizing
You are single handedly the biggest reason I have seen any interest in the bass. it's such a beautiful instrument and connects with me like nothing else has. Thank you
He's better when he uses BOTH hands though ;)
God I need to shut up

I think my favorite part of slap bass is that it makes the bass percussive on another level.

Somewhere in the middle of the video, starting with the index finger on the A, you performed this technique perfectly, making me fall in love with it instantly. thanks Charles!!!
Charles you are so talented and i love your mind when ut comes to orchestration every composition is so beautiful creatuve and musical
❤ You are the best Bass player I have ever seen ❤️
Hats off , Boss ❤️🙏🙏
So clean
Level 10 got me. Dude, your notes have some great power of persuasion over the emotions in my head. Super happy after hearing you play!
You need to team up with El Estapario Siberiano. You guys would make mind melting music!
Easily the most naturally talented bassist I've seen in a long time!!!
Bravo, Sir...🙏🇬🇧👍
DAMN, THAT'S INCREDIBLE!!! You have skills brother, keep shredding!!!
your technique is very clean and your timing is immaculate. underrated for sure
LEGEND
Dude, you are the best bassist I've ever heard.
You are legendary
One of my favourite slap style bassists of all time is Fieldy from Korn
If you're wondering how he does it I'll fill you in. His life since he was a child is Bass, all day, every day. You practice and study to get this good. What are you waiting for!
I've been watching you for a few years now and Im still constantly amazed and say WOW nearly every video 🎉
You made my bass to sell me
Por isso que sou teu fã
dude why does this sound like an old sonic game
I love your content man, keep it up!
Dude! You’re killing it. I don’t subscribe to many channels but I couldn’t pass up your subscribe button. Amazing bass work, you’ve earned my respect! ❤
Man, I could listen to you slap that bass all day
bro did the melody and the rhythm and the same time... my god
Truely is a joy to watch you play, keep it up mate, much love!

aaaand finally I heard the farewell sound of the ducklings 😂😂
Man. I can’t even get to level one. Still too n00b. Great vid as usual Berthoud. You are just plain ridiculous
No doubt, very high level performance, stay blessed.👍👌
Absolutely the best bass player on planet earth today bar none, this guy is simply beyond brilliant and it’s not just his technique it’s his ear and composition skills, Charles fucking Berthoud ladies and gentlemen
Checkmate!
Ghost Notes are wildly important in drumming, i guess i never put it together how awesome they sound on Bass as well.
That Really is Something & Thank You for Creating this vid. It's AWESOME 👌
I think the bass crown has a new wearer
I love what this guy does
The Best bass Player I have ever seen or heard.
This man can play all of the parts of the song with only a bass, and all of then at the same time
I skipped all the lower levels and went directly to lvl 10. Didnt think I would master slapping the base on the first try!
You are the FINAL BOSS, on the planet comprised of final bosses thru our the funky universe.
That was absolutely beautiful! You've got some tremendous versatility
The best bass player I’ve ever heard. 🔥👌
What I've just seen is absolutely impossible to do. I refuse to believe it. You're not human my friend! I can't believe my eyes and ears...
I got goosebumps from that, absolutely amazing
You're so much better than a lotta bassists I see on the internet fr
Ayeeee that is HARDDD!!! I need this on Apple Music lol!!! You are disgustingly talented!
Ive been playing guitar most my life i snagged my first bass been playing for about a month i have SO MUCH TO LEARN
6 is the best sounding. After that it becomes like those big band videos that get crazy technical and while they have their place I still think 6 is nicer on the ears
thx making this channel . 🔥🔥
I'll be happy jusy to make it to 3 or 4, 6 is the dream though
Funkiest thing I’ve heard all day thank you
I really enjoy hearing number 3, but 7 is wild!
Its funny...for awhile there were the videos with these bass wars between other bassists. Charles was a part of that for a bit. He is so far past all of them now no one else stands a chance.
you’re probably literally the worlds best bassist at this point
BRO THAT WAS IMPRESSIVE!
Keep going bro
I am amazed by the way he plays 😮
*Insert niche Scott Pilgrim "Final Bass Boss Battle" joke reference here*
That's some sick delicious slapps and a spicy noise at the end x)
Fantastic and beyond !!
You are amazing bro!!!
The level of funk in this should be illegal. That was insane!!!
That funny noise made our cats wild.
10 levels of tap bass 👍👍
Funny noise?! Wow! I had no idea I was level 10!
Now just to get the other 9...😂
This was actually a helpful breakdown of techniques for me
Amazing for sure!!
That is awesome mate, excellent
Dang Jethro. That is amazing. Cheers from Nashville. Fun stuff.
The better I get at bass the more I realise how extremely talented this dude is.
Noticing how low your left hand thumb sits is very eye opening.. I get cramps in my feet hand thumb a lot. I’m gonna try this technique of yours and see how it feels.
Love those facial expressions . Priceless ❤😊
Laughs at the end 😂 wonderfully skilled. So clean
That was wicked keep it up my friend👍🏽
awesome!! I'm your big fan
Лучший басист современности❤
You are truly good dude, wow !!!!!!!
You the man...I've been playing since b4 you were born...how? How are you so good?
I just got a bass and I can’t even think about doing this masterpiece
When you just learned the Alphabet in School, you didn't know how to write like Shakespeare either lol - practice!
Even if you get comfortable with a Sonic Youth or Sid Vicious style, and you get some nice ideas to use YOUR fingers on YOUR song.. Then its cool, right?
im getying heavy genesis Sonic bass vibes from this. incredible
I owe you a beer for making me laugh so much.
I skipped numbers 3-9 and went straight to level 10!! All the noises that come from my bass are funny when I play it.
10 kali di putar tetap saja membuat kepala bergoyang 😎
