You're a master with that bass guitar Dave 🎸, this video has helped me a lot to learn one of my favorite songs of all timw, Greets from Central America!!
Doing these kinds of videos is great man and I have to say that bass sounds great while also looking like a Fender with a lovely maple fret-board, I find them more appealing looking that the darker rosewood kind.
Wow, picking pattern is not standard at all I analyzed the video and tried playing the way he does it's easier this way. He doesn't alternate pick everything, there is a lot of downstrokes. It doesn't go down up, down up, down up. It goes d d u d d d d d u, d d u d d d d. Basically, he only uses upstroke for D to E and for A to A# which are short bursts of notes played on one string. It seems like David doesn't like to use alternate picking between strings which also explains why he has trouble playing this riff with fingers and since he is a downward pick slant player he is prone to have problems in this specific area. So he solved those string skipping problems by using downstrokes much more often. He just didn't pay enough attention to outside picking and changing strings and so he developed his technique based on downstrokes.
So rather than it being a choice, he uses a pick because he can't play very well with fingers. >not implying that makes him a worse bass player or musician. Although... 1:40 basically means he just plays from muscular memory, but can't adapt a riff to a different tempo. I mean, shouldn't musicians be able to do that?
Arguably most iconic bass line in metal, but damn that bass is buzzing.
"Natural distortion" lol
That’s how he likes it
Decent. Mustaine should consider having him join the band if he's looking.
That Conjuring bass line🥺. Beautiful. Hearing it by itself, I wish he’d play the whole song.

This dave guy is pretty good, I hope he will become a famous one day
Best bass intro of all time
In Metal...yes, absolutely!!
Well, actually this is after King Nothing, The God That Failed, etc xd.
Nah for whom the bell tolls
My two favorite one being from whom the bell tolls then number two is peace sells
@@thomasdenham2142 me too
He's really good at bass dave mustaine have to watch this dude maybe he can be a new bass player for megadeth
Huh, you think? You know, now that I think about it, he looks almost identical to current bassist.
@@clankinnpc5460 his birthday is also the same day. what a coincidence
Yeah Since David got kicked out, Ellefson is finally able to join them
This aged so well
@@dantenastasi2278 lol now they really need a new bassist
Dave Ellefson is a class act and the riffmeister for coming up with that iconic Peace Sells intro riff
2:14 - Mechanix
I love how in his bass lines there is always fairly little distortion... so crisp and clear. I love it!
I'm not young, but I enjoyed this lesson as you can't imagine, thank you Dave!
David likes young
@@AUBCodeII xDDD
Dave Ellefson is one of the top 5 bassists in metal for sure. Prove me wrong.
NÃO tenha dúvida!!!...
Hearing a pro saying they "can't do it" makes me, an amateur feel more confident.
It’s almost as if he was in Megadeth
We love you Dave
Can't wait for new videos and lessons from You, Kiko and Chris!
I don't play, but this guy is a known badass from way back! Megadeth would have never made it without this guy. I love you Dave and God is with you.
bust in piece

Dave! You’re the greatest bassist. And then some. Thanks
GREATplayer
I clicked on the vid because you seemed to be playing with your fingers 😁 Great stuff Dave, have always enjoyed your snappy and precise playing
David is a Bass god👍👍
You're the best.. Thanks for these videos!
Would love to see a demonstration of "My last Words" intro and verse
My Last Words have the best bass lines of their catalogue
@@effiemars_ quite possibly their most underrated song
@@cjcobracommander84fuck yes it's such a great song
Bust in peace Dave!
te banco en todas viejo, sos el mejor siempre !!!!
I love the tone and the playing ❤️
Smooth like butter. 😉

🥺 David estamos muchos contigo
Lastima que ya no estará mas en megadeth
No entiendo niuna lecera pero
GRANDE ELLEFSON, EL MEJOR!
ASÍ ES
Grande David

Legend
The name of this channel hits different now
Why?
Very cool!
thank you...i thought that part was a hamer-on too....
Happy 34th anniversary to PEACE SELLS
muito bom
love you man
David is a fucking Bass Men. 👍
Heard he switched from Jackson to Jacksoff
jr will always be the best bassist in megadeth
Where are the Modulus basses? Dawn Patrol.
The new Steve Harris. \m/ 👌
I mean... ❤️🤘
I wonder if that's THE computer. I can't look at this man the same way since.

Was this before or after Zoom😊
Owen Wilson will play him in the Megadeth movie.

?????? if a musician plays music that other people enjoy, he is a successful musician. There is literally nothing else that matters.
@@dzaijn ???????????????? Did I say he wasn't musically successful?
its easier if you play it on the next position, but yeah, it doesnt sound the same
You are more influential and far superior of a bassist/ musician than Cliff Burton ever could be. God keep you. 🎸
im gonna pretend i didn't see that
@@cliffisfuckingawesome3508 username checks out
How about the new track?
The Grooming🤔😂
LOL
Whaddaya mean I don't pay my bills? Why do you think I'm broke, huh?
He says he's a Christian then plays a song called the conjuring lol
He also cheats on his wife and wants to a minor
@@miljankareca4799 first of he did cheat, but she's 19 and was consenting
"this person claims to be religious but watches horror movies"
Wait what? He use picc? That's forbiden. But still epico
Cringe Davie fan🤮🤮

@@sambenjamin9636 davie504 is worse than David Ellefson
