Fine choice of song for bass class; nearly every student will want to join in.
Agreed !
And, here is the Bass Pixie with one of the coolest 'forgotten' songs. This song introduced me to Tiger Army
Tiger Army Never Die
I also want to add that it's really great when professional musicians, meaning the one's that actually get paid something to play an instrument. To give these lessons, tips, secrets and really take the time to put out a "cookbook" because you can go down the row detail to detail, ounce to ounce teaching your recipes and there is nothing to fear. Why? You already are successful at this point. Most people will not be and the ones that are, are probably too arrogant or stuck in their own ways to care what you gotta say anyway. So, I like it, love it, gimme us some more of it. Please you bad-ass rockabilly rocking upright bass playing gal-o-Rama
What a strong player. Smooth perfect timing and execution's. I'm a fan forever.
Thank you! That rocked. Love double base.
Man..that is some awesome Double bass playing..a really great tutorial as well..thanks

Thanks man! Really happy to hear it’s inspired you! Get that bass out!!!
You truly rock that bass
Brilliant and what a dolly to boot
Awesome talent!!
This is a great tutorial. Awsome your playing with the original version! And great, that you figured out every single note and slap from the original. Its a lot of work to do that ;). All the best!
I could watch you and your "Break-Move" for hours... :D
Thank you for the lesson!!

Azza Paterson thanks! Really glad you’re enjoying the video ☺️

sAvAge_AlexiSs thanks!
Very nice,it gets the air moving........☮️🔛🌎➕🎶
I'm absolutely in love 😍 🥰 I'm also a musician, while I'm mainly a lead guitarist/singer, I began on drums.. so the rhythm section is my true love. I'm always fixated on drummers, and upright bassists when I'm a spectator. Great video!
Thank you ☺️
You really rock.
You rock Girl !!

I can only DREAM of playing the bass that fast.
Keep working on it man, you’ll get there!
So nice ！
Thanks!
@@BamboozleHQ 😘💓😉✨👍🎶
Muito bom !
It's pretty much the same with the bass guitar. I play bass guitar - I don't play the double bass. Since I can't read sheet music, I learned to adapt to the sound of the note. So thank you for this video and it was helpful.
Kevin Ceniceros thanks for your comment, it’s great to hear it translates over well.
Hello Serena, i tried this song a few years ago with my ex-Rockabilly-Band called "HAIFISHTRIO" , i played the doublebass (I'm a male Bass pixie 😂) but my fingers doesn't fit live yours, IT was very hard to do this work on the bass. It's better to listen to what You do on the bass 😎.
You are a great 👍 bass pixie.
Best regards from the famous Leverkusen / Germany, where Bamboozle performed the 6 february at the "TOPOS".....
Hope to see you all back Herr soon......😚
Hey Male Bass Pixie! 😜What were you finding tough with it? If I can help with anything, let me know! I know size can be an issue, but there's always a way to make it work ;)
We have plans to come back to Topos, keep following us because it would be great to see you there again! Keep rockin' Rossi!
Cool! 🤩 I love the sound of this instrument! Very nice palying. Greetings from a death metal freak! 😁🤘
Thanks man, really appreciate it! Love death metal!!! Great taste ☠️🎵🤘
The instrumental of this song was in May I have this Ed? ( Ed Edd n Eddy)
Thanks for the tuition, very good thanks. Could you tell me what strings are you using? This type of playing is far too difficult on my steel strings so I have to stick to simple runs or root and 5th!
Anthony Burton they’re Rotosounds, definitely the best for slap style in my opinion. Thanks for watching!
Fantastik godis för ögon och öron :-)
sorry Swedish (great candy for eyes and ears)
Awesome vid thanks in the rockabilly world would you use a 3/4 or a full size double bass👍
Thanks Takeflight! Most people tend to use a 3/4 for Rockabilly, but if you’re exceptionally tall, a full size might be more comfortable, or exceptionally small, a 1/2 size, although this does compromise the sound a little.
I use a 3/4, so you’d have to be REALLY small 😉 (I’m 5’2”)
Great lessons! Keep it up. People ask about strings and brand of bass, but I wana hear more about pickups especially since there are stereo bridge and fingerboard splits out there and about tone, pedals and amps for live and recording sounds and how not to be a click-a-billy band. Please and thank yous of course
Hey Scott, thanks for the comments!
I’m a massive fan of the Shadow Rockabilly Pro pickup, you have the fingerboard and bridge pickups and control over both. My amp is a big part of my sound too, as it helps get a nice blend of the slap and the tone from the bass. I don’t use pedals though, although I’m considering a boost pedal for soloing live.
Recording wise, I use my amp, but also take a live mic feed of the bass sound and blend the two.
Any other questions, happy to answer 👍
Bom demais. maneco Brasil.
Wow, .... That was brilliant!! ... Can't beat a bit of Eddie Cochran ... Would love to see you overdubbing the bass to ''Am I Blue'' Eddie Cochran. Thanks for sharing.
Ah what a great song. I’ll see if I can do something in the future to it.
Thanks Dave!
@@BamboozleHQ I look forward to it, I'm sure you will do a great job as you always seem to do 😉
This looked really hard watching you play the demo at the beginning. After watching the whole lesson this looks waaaay easier now. Fantastic lesson I'll have this mastered in no time
Mark Mays thanks, I’m really glad you found it helpful! Good luck with playing!
@@BamboozleHQ thank you so much :). I played classical when I was in high school. I decided to start playing again but figured rockabilly would be more fun. Your lessons have been really helpful so far.
Mark Mays way more fun! I was a classical pianist, it was a great grounding but I couldn’t find the passion in it. Rockabilly bass stole my heart 😉
@@BamboozleHQ that's awesome. Can I ask you a quick question? How high is the action on your bass? I'm having trouble grabbing the strings super well while slapping and I'm wondering if raising the strings might help
Mark Mays I have mine about 5mm. I don’t like it too high, as it makes the left hand harder to play. Have you seen my video on single slap technique? There’s a few tips on there on hooking the strings, so you can have lower actio .
A great lesson thankyou. Which strings are you using and are you amping up for the lesson. The sound is perfect.
Hey Russell, thank you! They are the Rotosound RS400s, they are amazing strings!
@@BamboozleHQ thankyou, im new to double bass and have silver slaps on but after watching ur video, realised how high my bridge is. I really have to pull to get a slap, so I'm goin to look for an adjustable bridge to experiments, thank for ur reply, and keep up the good work, r
@@russellcauwood2865 I’d be cautious with adjustable bridges, they do affect your sound. Personally I’d recommend filing the one you have little bit by little bit until you’re happy with the height, or if you’re not confident, getting a luthier to do it for you.
Silver slaps are pretty high tension too, as they are steel core. Nice strings though, but never quite settled with them myself
the notes are exactly when you did hound dog in the live lesson of double bass
A lot of the songs are very similar from that era. When you know one, you’ll hear it in a few places!
O bom rock n' roll com Eddie Cochram, Twenty Flight Rock. Faleceu muito cedo, mas nos deixou um legado inestimável.

Thank you Manuel!
Acho isso mesmo cara...
Hi great video. I'm hoping to buy a Double Bass in the next few months. Where did you get yours from? And what strings are on yours?
Hey Paul, thanks! Mine is from a company called Huttula Customs in Finland, but the bass itself is a Strunal, from Germany. I use Rotosound Double Bass Strings, I've tried a lot of different ones but always come back to these
@@BamboozleHQ Ha! Rotosound were my 'Gateway Strings' to Gut....
Kevin L not a fan of guts myself. Why do you prefer them?
@@BamboozleHQ For me, my quest was the sound of Bill Black - Fred Maddox - Willie Dixon...
The RotoSound RS 4000 set gave me the best sound up till that point, still a good go-to set.
I was surprised how the E & A sounded (E and A are wrapped in a nickel alloy) and it didn't sound metallic or clicky to me. Learning to tame the slap makes a Huge difference too.
I think female upright players seem to refine their technique more quickly, maybe less aggression to slap the crap out of it, which yields better speed & control.
I traded the RotoSound E&A for Gut wound strings and just replaced the RotoSound D&G for pure guts as they broke. Guts require some love (oiling) after having the stuffing slapped out of them..
I prefer them because (to me), they have that authentic sound & are more playable.
Try a gut wound D first...
Kevin L you definitely have a lot of passion for the sound and music, that’s great to hear! I think if I only played Rockabilly, I’d look much further into using guts too, they are authentic for sure.
Tell us the story of How you got into rockabilly and the slap bass?
Some nice playing there
Sorry for the late reply, comments don’t always show up in my notifications!
I only started learning about rockabilly about 8 years ago. My other half at the time was in a rockabilly band, and I thought it was amazing music, I got the bug straight away.
When I started playing bass around that time, I started learning jazz as I didn’t think I’d be able to play slap style, but eventually was dragged into a jam night with swing/jive dancers and decided it was time to give it a go. I was hooked straight away and haven’t looked back since ☺️
Hello, can you tell me what size your upright bass is and your height? I think we might be around the same height and I like how your instrument is scaled.
HerroVincey I’m 5’2” and it’s a 3/4. How tall are you? I started on a 1/2 size but it was just a bit small and the sound is much better on the 3/4 too.
Hello! What would you recommend for a beginner bass? I love rockabilly and vintage country and want to play that.
Any old bass is good to start with! Thomann do a great selection of budget basses, but also a second hand one would be fine. The strings and how it is set up is most important at first ☺️ I’d recommend Rotosounds for the strings, they are great for beginner to advanced and will last a lifetime.
@@BamboozleHQ thank you so much! I’ve been looking at Thomann, but am confused if it’s a bass brand or if they just sell different brands of instruments. Will you please clarify for me? I appreciate your help!!
@@ladivina3298 No worries at all. Thomann are a music shop, BUT they do have their own double basses. They also stock other brands too, most of the basses they sell are excellent quality for the price. Definitely consider whether you want a full carved (solid wood) or laminate, as they are good for different styles. Carved are beautiful and resonant, but can be a problem if you want loud, rockabilly style playing, as they do have a tendency to feedback!
She be shuffling
I feel this is a good thing… yes?
I really like your bass , what brand / model is it ???
Thanks! It’s a custom Strunal 3/4. Absolutely love it.
Thanks , I'm an electric bassist looking for a upright , ant I don't want to got traditional 😊
@@michaelblaney4461 good move 😉 Strunal are a great brand. If you’re looking at slap style, go for a laminate. Solid wood are lovely but way too resonant and you’ll get feedback issues. You don’t have to spend a fortune to get a great sound. A lot of it is about strings, set up, amplification...
Hi! Great work! :) Is there any way to get the sheet of this music? :) Thanks in advance!
I’m just updating my website to include more sheets, charts and more. If you keep watching, I’ll let you know when it goes live, I imagine this one will be on there
I appreciate your reply . :) I was thinking about subscribing (I better fess up : I don't actually own a double bass ) , anyhow enough thinking , I'm hitting the button right now!
Thank you ☺️ I’ve got so much more coming soon, had lots going on behind the scenes. Hope you enjoy!
I hope all the busy behind the scenes things going on's are good things. I'm sure I will enjoy whatever you come up with ! :) @@BamboozleHQ
@@sundowner62james69 you wouldn't believe if I told you! We've been over a year in the making of the next bits coming out
Over a year , now that's dedication! I'm sure it will be good. :)@@BamboozleHQ
The version I've always known was in "G". Took me awhile to find the one in "A".
True, there are a couple out there!
Nice girl. Very cool
How come double basses always sounds slight out of tune when the notes are being played? You know what I mean?
What kind of strings do you use? Thanks
Sorry for the late reply! They're the Rotosound DB Set!
Would you be able to do a lesson for the song "Slow Down"?
Nick Presser which version? I’ll add it to the list.
Jack Earls
@@nickpresser7882 - Great song.
I wish you were my bassist!!!
Haha, thanks man
can you make a similar movie? Blue Moon of Kentucky ? :) just asking
i love hevy bass slapping
Jörgen Nilsson yes, I’ll add it to the list! Great tune
@@BamboozleHQ do you have lesson a on trippel slap whit alternativ bas ?
Jörgen Nilsson I’m not sure what you mean? There is a triple slap lesson, or do you mean something else?
@@BamboozleHQ sorry can you make link?link to lesson.
can not find. "i think its calld contry slap"
@@jorgennilsson2571 I checked and I have only got as far as the double slap in the tutorials! I've added the triple slap to the list for my next few video's. Keep watching!
Hi. Just showed my wife this video and i said i've got to get one and her reply was......yes of course as long as i can have a top like shes wearing!! So, being desperate to get a double bass after seeing your video would you mind me asking where i can get a top like that for my wife? Not even joking!! Thank you so much, Steve.
Hi Steve, this is brilliant, probably my favourite comment 😂 your wife does have the best taste 😉
The brand is called “Miss Fortune”, I’m not sure if they still do that exact top, but there’s lots of similar clothing. missfortune.co.uk/
Fingers crossed for the bass 😉
@@BamboozleHQ Thank you so much!! Will be having one 100%. The wife is extremely grateful. So glad i discovered your videos!!
@@steve660917 found a few similar tops on eBay, typing “miss fortune” off shoulder top 😉
And now I’m shopping 😂
My bass is now repaired
Does it play nicely?
@@BamboozleHQ yes but how i tune it
This looks like the old fgteev house when they did challenges
XxXR3DCaLiperXxX what’s the fgteev house? Feels like this needs some investigating 😎
Bamboozle HQ it’s a family channel where some kids and his dad did food challenges and other challenges to they had a table and three windows behind it so that’s why I said it looks like It😂
Bamboozle HQ btw I liked the vid the bass sound sounds nice
Bamboozle HQ I’ll try to find the vid
To know how to arpeggiate is the key!!!
Yes it is.
Not to be rude, but uhh... this a bad b right here ya'll. Dope as fuck!
don't buy a new bass, best basses for slap are the vintage laminates {european}, i always have a few.
You are a goddess😍😍😍
Awww ♥️ thank you
Serious question...... will you marry me?
Lol, ummm.... no ;)
hahaha pathetique
🙄
You're too far from your mic.
I had no mic back then Charles, I think this was my first (or close to) video, so just me and an iphone! Lots of improvements in the later videos. Thanks for the feedback
