Assuming that the levels are based on difficulty, it's really interesting what different people find difficult. I find chords and harmonics pretty easy, but slap and 3 finger picking are real hard for me.
Narrated Abu 'Amir or Abu Malik Al-Ash'ari: that he heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, "From among my followers there will be some people who will consider illegal sexual intercourse, the wearing of silk, the drinking of alcoholic drinks and the use of musical instruments, as lawful. And there will be some people who will stay near the side of a mountain and in the evening their shepherd will come to them with their sheep and ask them for something, but they will say to him, 'Return to us tomorrow.' Allah will destroy them during the night and will let the mountain fall on them, and He will transform the rest of them into monkeys and pigs and they will remain so till the Day of Resurrection."
@@miguelsmusicstuff ikr. U can be really good, with crazy technique and all that, but coming up with those riffs and playing the way he plays, u just have to have it in u.
For anyone looking for the beat/song/backing track... I found these version Bunen - Things I Could Do Gemp - winter sax Kaspa. - Contrast J. Cole - 4 your eyes only Hephty - Mantro I kinda like mantro tbh... gemp seems to be the original beat but I could be wrong.
Not playing the bass but producing beats... This one just heal my soul. Thank you very much. This just cure my heart broken. The vids last 3 mins but I've been listen to you like 2 hours.. amazing
Superb. It's so interesting how your influences using those techniques differ from what we usually listen to in western bass players, the groove and harmony just sound like something else, and beautiful in their own way. Kudos to you, Nito-san!
It’s like 1400 dollars which surprised me .I thought since this was Ibanez concept to workshop(their highest tier for bass like j custom which are like 4 grand) it would be quite expensive, but it’s quite “”””affordable”””” for such a well spec out bass with amazing build quality
When I was a teen, I couldn't figure out why bands needed a bass player, i could hardly listen to it. But as I've gotten a little bit older now, I guess I developed an ear for it, I have a whole new appreciation for bass.
it's like im playing a japanese RPG and in a sad scene where parents die or a friend of MC betrays MC or a lover dies or awhen the main boss tell his/her sad story
uhh kind of remembered me of Pokémon white/black where you get your last badge and it has different visuals depending on what game you get but im talking about white where its old fashioned :)
I love real musicians, he isn't a pretentious comment he's actually doing it while everyone's bickering. Kudos to a sick a bass guide, whether something is harder for someone else or not i think it's important to recognize that practice makes perfect and somethings are easier for other people. Thats why in a band you have someone who vibes well with one instrument and another. Nothing is harder, some instruments just click less, obviously this guy isn't playing an accordion.

Goddammit, I read a lot of comments, this guy plays really good but you all mention only youtubers, I'm now wondering if you know only them ignoring great artists...
The more I watch this video, the more I grow to love the colour of that bass. I mean, also the more I appreciate ICHIKA'S composition skills, but the colour of the bass for sure.....
No playing with a pick!!! I use one when I need a sharper attack. When I record I keep one on my desk so I can use it in the passages that feel like it’s needed. Great playing as always.
@@PorchBass Agreed. A frill here and there is always cool, but overdoing Bass kills the intended function. As much as a lot of these virtosos out there can play the crap out of a bass, they lose they point.

No guitar level le better
TheLurkingPanda he has a video called the 10 levels of guitar
The 10 levels of Guitar video was someone else, they were just playing a song BY Ichika.

Level 1: 1 finger

Same, I get awful sounds slapping.
For me slap is hard,& harmonic is really hard.I can't create harmonic note,always end-up to 'normal' or 'muted' note.
i found them all easy but not too easy, like, medium difficulty
except for tapping

Chords are harder on bass right?
@@ronjozefcuyos8462 I think they are harder to implement, maybe not play
Ron they are definitely harder. The strings are thicker the frets are larger and you have less strings to work with unless you have a six string bass

😂
You’re a bloody legend

i'm a bass player who loves watching Ichika Nito play guitar, but 2:23 is probably my favorite thing i've ever seen him put to video
You’ve somehow reached a point in music where a song automatically builds tension with you on bass when theres no tapping... like you feel its coming.
Damn omg fr
Holy shit, i felt the same way
Alongside his guitar playing, I feel his production qualities are on point too. Keep em coming Ichika!! Really digging the jazz influences
How to be a good bass player :
1. Be ichika
Another method :
2. Be davie504
Last method:
Use one finger and play only open string
You forgot method no.3
Become Charles Berthoud.

As a fellow bass player dude your accuracy is good enough you should be playing a fretless. A lot easier on the fingers.
they funny but frets just feel right
No way he would do that tapping on a fretless

Fretlesses aren't designed for easier playing, fret less wouldn't suit these vibes at all.
