I seen this video multiple times over the last few year and it is the best Orion cover on youtube. Your videos are also what got me to switch to flat wound strings 3 or 4 years ago. Best change ever.
103Kitsune lol...ok same thing he said..in more detail. However the younger generation is not the only gamers...I know thats not what you said...but this needed to be said. I'm late 40's and still play video games.
one of the most beautiful things about your playing is by far most the fact that you aren't using tabs, and in almost every video I see people asking you where did you get the tabs. Honestly if you want to pay respect to this guy do not ask him for tabs but learn it by ear and that's how you'll eventually reach his level. Otherwise as a bass player myself I enjoy every video post you make Cheers mate.:)
He play guitar parts and bass parts. 2:40 - it's electric guitar part and the solo is played on the electric too. Next are bass solos. In the end of the song is guitar solo again and he again played it on his bass. Respect, it's not easy to play guitar solo on bass...
My man I saw this when It first came out and I first started playing. Crazy how much can change in time. Thanks for helping me learn this song for real! It did a lot for me in finding details!
+Farhad Asgharzadeh That's not true, Cliff didn't play hammet's solos, his solos are at 1:12 and 6:05. The guy in the video translated Hammets' solos at 2:25, 5:47 and at 6:30, which is pretty impressive, but not like the original :)
you are one of the greatest bass players i have ever seen. i can tell you really have respect for the music you love. good job man, seriously, good job.
It was a reply to SoenAfEnkaeling. Sometimes the youtube comment system doesn't display replies correctly and just puts them at the top like a new comment. Drives me crazy!!!
Wow - You play very clean kid. Keep up the chops man !! I have been playing bass off and on for 20 years and you are way beyond my best years. Seriously gave me chills watching your finger work on the solos.
Damn I totally love you cover...it's one of the best on youtube...maybe THE best...it's very Burton like with all those solos and everything, you really brought up the power of bass...I like it...this has really pleasantly surprided me...Cliff is very proud on you somwhere out there...great man...respect...keep it up with good work... =)
it's since 2011 that once for year i search this video screaming at the computer "WHY THE F**K U HAVE TO PLAY THIS SONG WITH A 66 GUILD STARFIRE HOLLOWBODY" adding 5 minutes after "AND WHY THE F**k THIS VIDEO IS THE BEST VIDEO ON RUclips"
Not at all. I just hadn't played this bass in a while and felt like doing a video with it. Plus, Cliff's Rickenbacker was modded with a Gibson humbucker (from an EB0), not a Hagstrom pickup.
Clifford Lee Burton Would Be Proud To Hear A Bassist Like You Playing Not Only The Bass Track But Also The Guitar Solos!!! Keep Up The Great Work!!! I Love The Bass, I Have One Myself And I Love It!!! Anywho, Amazing Cover Man... You Are A Real Inspiration!!!
Love it, i play guitar myself and im not so much innto bass, but when i see a cover like this, my jaw drops. 5/5, favorite, sub and everything else :) I really like that you played the guitar solos, and used more slides instead of bends, sounded really good :)
dude that is an amazing cover. You play the bass part and guitar solos and you did some add ons to it..man that was sick bro. Man i hope yu play in a band cause yu will kick ass!
you are one of the best bass player that i hear in youtube... this bass track is harder and a i try to duplicate your technique but is noy easy hahahaha.... excellent job dude... cliff is very happy be proud of that
@MushroomDisorder - Most of my videos show basses that I still have. I have 7 currently. 4 acoustics (4-string fretless Kinal, 6-string fretted Kinal, Tacoma Thunderchief, Ernie Ball Earthwood), this '66 Guild Starfire Hollowbody, my Ken Lawrence 5-string, and my DeArmond Pilot Deluxe 4-string.
the solo in the song is all the members of the band soloing. James, Kirk, then Burton on the tail end of the solo. It is in the liner notes of the album who solo'd where.
you bass is so clean man, it's feeling like a fretless!
It's cause it's semi hollow body I think. The tone is very full.
still coming back here after 10 yrs, since when i discovered this awesome cover
much appreciated, Mr. Greg Bailey!
Bassists anthem

Man your bass guitar sounds so pretty good ...
I don't get why everybody asks me this! I was 15 when Jason left Metallica. They wanted someone their own age (40s). It's not gonna happen ;)
Why people playing videogames like minecraft, call of duty, battlefield bla bla get more views than this?. Why WHY WHY!
Because video games cater to a larger audience.
Harvester of Sorrow
i think more specifically, video games cater to the younger viewers who make up a much larger portion of the online community.

***** ur old
***** That change everything! Thanks for bragging about it!

Holy shit you are a phenomenal bass player, your technique is incredible and you clearly know all your theory.
He play guitar parts and bass parts. 2:40 - it's electric guitar part and the solo is played on the electric too. Next are bass solos. In the end of the song is guitar solo again and he again played it on his bass. Respect, it's not easy to play guitar solo on bass...
6:03 The best part
Damn it...I was so proud, that I managed to play for whom the bell tolls (the normal bassline).Daunting. Well back to school then.
Great job!!
I wished that you got in contact with Metallica in Bass players auditions in 2001. That's cool dude.
Five years and still the favorite bass cover
Good job man! nice bass by the way :P
My man I saw this when It first came out and I first started playing. Crazy how much can change in time. Thanks for helping me learn this song for real! It did a lot for me in finding details!
Flawless victory
12 years, still the Best Bass Cover!
Amazing, love that tone you have,
Brilliant Job Metallica is my favorite band and you did Cliff an awesome respect and made him proud. keep it up
soo you're playing Hammett's solos with only 4 strings, that's gotta say something...
+Colin Antofagasta ohh.. ok, enough internet for today
+Colin Antofagasta no mate thats the cliff part
its also originally on bass
+Frankiller Rex nvm i feel stupid :)
+Farhad Asgharzadeh That's not true, Cliff didn't play hammet's solos, his solos are at 1:12 and 6:05. The guy in the video translated Hammets' solos at 2:25, 5:47 and at 6:30, which is pretty impressive, but not like the original :)
+Mr Charcoal that's not true my friend. All of orion was written by Cliff.. All the solos, then the others took them and put them on guitar
Very fluent and nice sounding, the stuff added in made it sound super cool
What a Fantastic Job!
you are one of the greatest bass players i have ever seen. i can tell you really have respect for the music you love. good job man, seriously, good job.
una buena interpretacion, saludos from chile!!
Cuando te saltas la clase de ingles
This is the most beautiful cover I've have ever heard
That's one sexy bass
love it, and Cliff's solo, great!!!!!
Why did you do the guitar solo before the break instead of cliffs bass line?
john joe "All Solos"
because hes amazing an does whatever the fuck he wants
you guy make songs sound 100 times more exiting than they already are. Fucking congrats dude. I could be listening to you all the time
awesome but you didnt do you what you had to do at the middle!!! hahaha but it was IMPRESSIVE!!!!
I have watched this at least twenty times, it never gets old, this is a great video...
this is impressive
It was a reply to SoenAfEnkaeling. Sometimes the youtube comment system doesn't display replies correctly and just puts them at the top like a new comment. Drives me crazy!!!
Clifford Lee Burton finally reincarnated
Locspocs2 No he didnt.He plays the whole song on clean.he doesent use any distortion.Cliff always used distortion
@@tinhadzic152 overdrive* :)
@ESTRONINE - 14 on the D-string, then 14, 16, and 17 on the G-string. It's pretty fast.
Con vibrato sonaría mas chingon brother ,pero así esta perfecto! :D
@MrDohmah - My fault for setting the input gain on the recording a little too high. This was a good take though and I didn't want to re-do it :)
I can't believe how freaking good this is! I've never seen bass playing like this before; I was blown away!
It's an original Hagstrom pickup. The ones that the Darkstars are modeled after.
Wow - You play very clean kid. Keep up the chops man !! I have been playing bass off and on for 20 years and you are way beyond my best years. Seriously gave me chills watching your finger work on the solos.
AWESOME POSTER IN THE BACKGROUND!!!! I'm pretty sure Greg is the coolest person alive. I'm dumbfoundedly impressed.
I clearly sense loads of your respect to Cliff watching you play. It really shows. 30 buckets of respect to You. This was a true homage.
the tone of the bass is just great. it emits a cozy, relaxing atmosphere, really a pleasure to listen to your playing.
Damn I totally love you cover...it's one of the best on youtube...maybe THE best...it's very Burton like with all those solos and everything, you really brought up the power of bass...I like it...this has really pleasantly surprided me...Cliff is very proud on you somwhere out there...great man...respect...keep it up with good work... =)
Definitely the best ever Bass player in the World, Dude you inspired me to keep going.
it's since 2011 that once for year i search this video screaming at the computer "WHY THE F**K U HAVE TO PLAY THIS SONG WITH A 66 GUILD STARFIRE HOLLOWBODY" adding 5 minutes after "AND WHY THE F**k THIS VIDEO IS THE BEST VIDEO ON RUclips"
This is so amazing. and i never really thought much of Bass but this.. omg this is spectacular man
Not at all. I just hadn't played this bass in a while and felt like doing a video with it. Plus, Cliff's Rickenbacker was modded with a Gibson humbucker (from an EB0), not a Hagstrom pickup.
Clifford Lee Burton Would Be Proud To Hear A Bassist Like You Playing Not Only The Bass Track But Also The Guitar Solos!!! Keep Up The Great Work!!! I Love The Bass, I Have One Myself And I Love It!!! Anywho, Amazing Cover Man... You Are A Real Inspiration!!!
i`m so excited when i see a master like you and Cliff

Seriously man this is excellent, I love how you get the guitar solos so nicely done, and your tone is so fucking clean
Man, you are amazing
Love it, i play guitar myself and im not so much innto bass, but when i see a cover like this, my jaw drops. 5/5, favorite, sub and everything else :)
I really like that you played the guitar solos, and used more slides instead of bends, sounded really good :)
You're the new Cliff Burton man. Great improvisations and fucking great job with the solos. Keep rockin'!
Dude i can't believe you played all those solos on bass haha

Five years still the favorite bass cover

The Way You Did Burtons Solo Was absolute perfection. he Must Be Proud.
Man, you're awesome! and I think that, just like Cliff, you're a bass player with a guitar player soul!
Congratulations!

@TheFratellometallo - Occasionally, most of the time I'm just using 2 though.
Best cover, ever. No doubt. Dang, man...that was inspirational!
Much love,
Thanks. It's actually an original Hagstrom pickup (the ones that Darkstars are modeled after).

Such a lovely sounding bass!
that bass is a true work of art. freaking awesome.

Awesome job!! Don't worry about the clipping it is pretty much inevitable when playing traditional style.
Very, very good. Lots of attention for the detail. Cheers from Germany!
I WANT THAT BASS YOU'RE HAVING!:D Man, it looks so sweet!!!
Nice playing also :D
this has to be my fav. bass cover,right now!

@9Martel9 - 2 singles? What do you mean?
@DeTwilightLink - See the part where I said "playing all the guitar solos as well"?

Definitely best orion bass cover on youtube
The Best Orion Cover in all RUclips, Cliff Burton is not dead
@MushroomDisorder - Most of my videos show basses that I still have. I have 7 currently. 4 acoustics (4-string fretless Kinal, 6-string fretted Kinal, Tacoma Thunderchief, Ernie Ball Earthwood), this '66 Guild Starfire Hollowbody, my Ken Lawrence 5-string, and my DeArmond Pilot Deluxe 4-string.
Love how you play the elec guitar solos on bass its awesome
@chrisslipknt444 - I appreciate any and all comments!
Great playing
congratz again dude! you rock! i wish i can learn to play like u
perfect sound and skill. I'm cryin'
As a guitar player the finger picking alone makes me baffled , great job man!
@Snapshot3 - It's not a Darkstar. It's an original Hagstrom pickup (the ones the Darkstar was modeled after), It's great though!
WOW!!!! dude you are something else, awesome cover man
This is a very very nice bass guitar, I love the shape and sound!
the solo in the song is all the members of the band soloing. James, Kirk, then Burton on the tail end of the solo. It is in the liner notes of the album who solo'd where.
Awesome technique dude! Particularly since you're going with such a clean tone on your bass. Well done! I'd love to jam with a bass player like you!
Thanks for all your vids, Greg, I'm your biggest fan ever. =)
That bass is beautiful and great cover by the way
keep it up!!
the bass is the soul of this music, without the bass this was was a normal music like the others, well done ;)
Greg~
I just wanted to say a quick Thank You and Great Job!!
Sounds Killer!!
~M
@stewartgregg25 - It's an original (1966) Hagstrom Bisonic pickup
That's a beautiful bass. Nice color.
fucking amazing the improvising was just on point!
