Finally, a bass player who's not talking shit about using the sinful pick. That shows the musical versatility you have. Your technique is awesome as usual.
I don't understand why people give other players shit about using a pick. It is so stupid. Ellefson is the best example why it is stupid. He's a monster. See also Jason Newsted, Rex Brown and countless others!!!!! It's just another method of playing like slap and pop, used for a specific tone and style of music. End of story!!
I don’t think people appreciate how hard it is to pick like this on a bass; thicker strings and further to travel in between each string when compared to guitar.... all the while stopping the other strings letting out any noise or hum to muddy up the low end. Great job my man! 🤘
It really a big difference between guitar and bass. My guitarist keeps telling me to use a pick even though it's not as easy as on guitar. I for sure appreciate this as well.
I don't know about other commenters but I certainly didn't expect to see a dog casually walk across the room when I started watching. Anyway, great performance. Another great bass performance from David Ellefson is My Last Words.
Un crack... UN CRACK es lo que sos papá. Excelente interpretación. Esa precisión con la pua es muy difícil de imitar, especialmente en esta canción. Tenés demasiado talento... Deberías estar con los grandes. Te deseo lo mejor! Excelente trabajo otra vez.
I have watched multiple different covers of this song. I even attended David Ellefson's in #basstory event in Turkey. This one has the same quality as the original. Greetings.
I can’t ever get enough of the rhythm underlying the solo at the end with those triplets. The bass just showcases how that part is such pure incredible metal
Ellefson stated that when they opened with this he looked forward to the flamenca part, to give his picking arm a rest. Makes perfect sense now. Great playing man! Nice Dawn Patrol intro/outro ;)
Sounds great - tone is killer and the playing, as ever, a fantastic tribute to the original. I learned this last year as part of a set I played as stand-in bassist with a UK Megadeth tribute and had to learn to play with a pick properly for the first time. David Ellefson is much underrated.
Very impressed sir. I usually see you playing with fingers, and there's definitely nothing wrong with that, but to see you play just as well with a pick, major respect.
Killer man! I've been on a big Megadeth kick so this cover hit the spot. Absolutely perfect cover, love all the subtleties of this bass line that Ellefson threw in. Hes a master at his craft, one of my favorite bassists.

It appears that the dog is not a Megadeth fan
He probably likes cannibal corpse
Or Carcass.
James Hetfield’s gonna kick him
Dog must be a Metallica fan
Cannibalism corps is great tho
This guy has the best bass covers on TH-cam. Both in song choice, tone and playing.
I 100% agree
Oh his tone is is nothing short of addictive!!!
YES.
David504: i challenge you to a bass battle
One day I'll be big enough for people to talk about my tone.

OMG
i love the sound of a pick only thing i dont like is when its used on songs that originally played with fingers
@@feverlma playing this with fingers might have given him tendonitis lol agreed dude

pick is more easy......period
when you see kello use a pick, yk now some serious shit is coming
what a versatile bassist, great pick and finger playing
Nice pfp
thanks pal, this makes me proud
Nice pfp
Mmm I'm not proud for the fact that I recognize your pic...
Great pfp
Seriously how and why do people give a thumbs down to his videos?? This guy is a beast!!
people who cant play it correctly
Must be misclicks
probably jealous
Probably Ellefson
He doesnt have his boobs on show.
Why does he look like Keanu Reeves with a big beard
We don't know,but we like it!
Lmfao! Facts
may be he is keanu reeves, he even has a dog
@@pawandevil Keanu Reeves is also a bassist!
Because he is a killer with the bass
The ultimate thrash metal tone
nice pfp
it also comes from the pick

Agreed.

Go see a doc, dude! Cuz you're sick AF! Lol I'm always blown away by your covers man.

Anyway, great performance. Another great bass performance from David Ellefson is My Last Words.

Muchas gracias, te lo agradezco!
The Dawn Patrol coda is a nice touch!
A Like is not enough to show appreciation for that performance. That was off the charts. Outstanding job brotha.
Thank you very much 👊🏻
That song looks really hard!
It can get tricky indeed 👊🏻

Thanks!
Hey.. Did you use my video?? I'm so happy about that!! Thanks brother
I got it somewhere else, but it does sound as the one on you channel! Thanks :)
@@kellogc your cover is perfect! If you need any bass backing track feel free to contact me, that would be amazing!!
Bro, two words.
Holy. Shit.
Dude, Ellefson has been fired. Audition!
Even his doggo is black. How metal can you get? \m/
You've been crazy productive during this whole quarantine keeping us all amazed and entertained. Don't leave us hanging once the world reopens! lol
Kello playing with a pick? Unbelievable! Still so, very EPIC! :P
I was surprised too. :D
Ellefson played this with a pick, so it makes sense that Kello would too. 👍🏼
Klunk klunk klunk don't you love that sound? Fuck yeah!
Alembic Elans have my favorite bass tone for thrash, played through a solid amp they’re unbeatable
amazing basss cover bruh you killing it
Ellefson would be proud..Awesome job Kello!!!
Awesome as always Kello, thanks!
Dog is like: “Fuck this shit, again and again everyday! I’ll go!”
I can’t ever get enough of the rhythm underlying the solo at the end with those triplets. The bass just showcases how that part is such pure incredible metal

Ellefson is my favorite, Kello too. Thanks dude,I always enjoy watching your videos !
Excellent right hand technique!
Bass tone: 10/10!
Sounds great - tone is killer and the playing, as ever, a fantastic tribute to the original.

Nice job once again Kello. Man I love that Alembic!
Very impressed sir. I usually see you playing with fingers, and there's definitely nothing wrong with that, but to see you play just as well with a pick, major respect.
Love the little dawn patrol at the end. Awesome cover man
So tight and accurate! Love the tone too
Awesome job as always Kello!!
Legendary song, and awesome playing. Your right hand is extremely accurate and precise. Thanks for uploading.

Such an awesome song, thanks for covering one of my favorites
Your picking is sooooo precise yet sooooo powerful. Truly such a joy to watch. :)
Killer work!
Amazing tone and cover!
Anyone who ever played bass knows how important it is to the structure of any ballad
NICE DUDE!
A pick!? Great cover man
This is the only bass channel i have subscribed to! Epic!!
Thank you!
When Odin sends you a bass guitar instead a hammer
Wow! You are just as good with a pick. Really impressive!!
You make it look so easy. 😲
You are an inspiration. Keep rockin !
My head is spinning right now. I think only lead was missing on it, rest everything else was covered spotlessly. hats off
That's amazing mate!!!
Greetings from London.
Killer killer tone!
Great work oh bearded one!!!
Never seen you use a pick before. Good job dude 👍
Thanks!
Great bass tone, great timing!
Killer man! I've been on a big Megadeth kick so this cover hit the spot. Absolutely perfect cover, love all the subtleties of this bass line that Ellefson threw in. Hes a master at his craft, one of my favorite bassists.

Oh shit, your pick playing is on point too! 😁
Amazing! OMG!
Killer cover, absolutely beautiful bass tone!
Man, that is awesome brother!!
FKN AMAZING MAN
Thank you 🤘🏻
Bass difficulty levels:
- Easy
- Medium
- Hard
- Even Kello needs a pick
In all honesty, I didn't even think you _owned_ a pick.
I have a jar full of picks. First time I took one out of it 🙈
You got a new sub...Sick tone and flawless playing
fantastic tone, very tight playing
What an amazing tone, and amazing playing too
Thank you 🔥
Maestro !! saludos y gracias por deleitarnos.
Muchas gracias
You just nailed it. Awesome job!
Brilliant!
Really captured Dave Jr's playing style and tone!
That was AWESOME! Shout out from Chicago!!
That dog is lucky to get to hear you jam!!
At last! I had been for this one for a long time. Well done.
Dude this was a phenomenal job! David Ellefson would agree if he saw this! Cheers bro!
My favourite Megadeth song
Great song and album 👊🏻

Flawless
Excellent cover, love the tone on this one, just the right amount of clank while still holding the bottom end. :)
Thanks! 🤘🏻

Eres una máquina tocando. Muy buen cover. Great cover and good job. Dave will be proud.
I've been playing for 2 years now and seeing this makes me lose all hope haha. Great covers Kello :)
On the contrary, keep practicing and become better
