      George asked Paul to keep it simple, and THIS is what Paul gave him. Saying it is busy may be an understatement, yet in the end it's absolutely perfect.

    I, too, like a well anchored thumb. "Something" is a great bass piece. Many people believe Paul is underrated as a bass player and if you really listen to Beatle stuff he's all over the fret board but it never gets in the way of the song. My personal fave Beatle bass line is "Rain." Ringo is widely acknowledged on that one as having delivered one of his best performances as well.

    • @TJH3113
      @TJH3113  11 лет назад +13

      Some guys can float their hand around and do just fine, but I like my plucking hand on solid ground. I mentioned to someone else that I'd read somewhere that Paul McCartney would often record his bass last in order to get the line to really stand out by filling in the blank spaces and not clashing with anything else that was going on in the song. I don't think I've ever heard "Rain", I'll have to check it out.

      TJH3113 I hope you've heard Rain by now. I mostly float my thumb, using it mainly for muting but occasionally anchor when I really need to dig in. I also flip from fingerstyle to using my index fingernail to get a percussive pick sound at certain points in some songs.

Since he is gone now I am doing the entire song in his memory I bought an ignition hofner and have 90% of the song down just from this video. Its the last bit thats getting me.

      Thank you. I thought this would be a nice tribute since it was the last song we tried to learn together. Neither of us professionals, Im a physician he was a plater. I don't think I will obtain the playing quality you have with the smooth slide etc. I could not use my two fingers with any rhythm to say the least so Im picking all the notes. I have to say yours was probably the most accurate of all the posts.

  • @bavedoyd
    @bavedoyd 7 лет назад +15

    Watched video to find fault with your playing but I can't: you play with subtlety and nuance - so nice! Way back, I read an interview with George talking about what a jerk Paul was during the breakup. But then he also said how generous and giving Paul could be and George cited Paul's bass playing on "Something" as an example. I think Paul always loved this song, he does it on tour in tribute to George, but goes from ukulele (which George gave him) to 6-string and doesn't reprise his magnificent bass part - Too bad! I listen to Abbey Road at least once a week.

    • @wmarkdyer
      @wmarkdyer 7 лет назад +5

      I've always see Paul's bass playing on something as almost a statement like; okay George you wrote a brilliant song, so I'm going to play a brilliant part on the bass. So there.

    • @hnotneb8115
      @hnotneb8115 6 лет назад

      The way I heard the story was that George DIDN'T want a crazy Macca bass line on this song, and had recorded his own version with his 6-string Fender bass. Paul came in the studio later, and added this bass part without George knowing! The 1st time George heard it was on the radio! GREAT COVER by the way. I wish you had used the Hofner (even though it is difficult to get THAT tone!)
      P.S. I saw Macca in 2014 - did the ukulele tribute to George - it was awesome!

    Your left hand articulation is wonderful - sliding in and out of notes appropriately, gentle vibrato here and there. I definitely feel the difference when this is played with the fingers rather than a pick since it's less muted and "plump", but put that aside and this performance is brilliant. Thank you for sharing - one Beatle bass fan to another.

Why have you not covered "Somebody to Love" - seminal bass playing and in addition I can't find an accurate bass cover of the tune. Even my Berklee-trained bass teacher has questions on what Jack is playing in a couple of places - questions ONLY TJH3113 can answer!

      Yes, it's a busy little bass line, isn't it?

    Very smooth indeed Troy ... shows that Sir Paul wasn't just a "simple" bassist .... thought i'd like to have a go at some Beatles stuff myself and you're my first stop to see where i need to be aiming with technique.

    Wow! Would I be wrong in saying something like..."McCartney's bass playing is just as cool and clever as Geddy Lee's." It's your vids that are making me feel this way. So melodic!

    I've been grounding my hand using the pickup for lack of a better grounding spot, but after seeing this I emailed the company to get more details & pricing since I have a 2006 Geddy Lee model. Thanks for letting us know about them! As always nice job on the cover too. McCartney is still one of the best bass players even though his bass lines are simple.

    • @TJH3113

      I'm really happy with the rests, I hope you are as well if you do get one.
      Thanks. As far as "simple" goes, this is far from that. It was for me anyway.

    Clean looking and sounding bass. Nice job! I saw the thumb rest you had for the Ric. Great idea which kinda means considerations for pickup placement are left out of the equation.

    • @TJH3113

    • @mmsabre7931
      @mmsabre7931 11 лет назад

      TJH3113 I meant to say it doesn't matter where the pickup is to dig in if you have the thumb rest along the pick-guard.

  • @chicken11999933
    @chicken11999933 11 лет назад

    Love this bass line. Also, thanks a lot for showing off the thumb rest. I recently got my first Jazz bass, and the one thing I could complain about was the lack of space to put my thumb. I'm really going to look into this.

    • @TJH3113
      @TJH3113  11 лет назад

      Me too. I'm really happy with the thumb-rests. They're well designed and install easily using the existing screw holes so an idiot like myself can install them with very little difficulty.

    Very well done! I too am a fan of an anchored thumb and had to install a thumb rest on my Music Man. I'm not a fan of playing up by the bridge and was worried about flubbing the installation on a higher end instrument. But it worked and made a world of difference. Love your stuff.

    • @TJH3113
      @TJH3113  3 года назад

      Thank you. You know, Zero-Mod makes a thumbrest for many basses (including MusicMan) that use existing screw holes and don't require any drilling into the bass.

    Troy I don't understand how you aren't a very famous bass player. It's not like you're like me and can only cover songs and have an inability to write as we've seen with your original songs (which I wish I could see more of). All I'm saying is I would have been a huge fan of your band, just as much as I am of your cover tunes. Keep up the good work my friend.

    • @TJH3113

      I didn't forget about or ignore your comment, but sometimes I get a comment that is so kind and generous that I don't quite know how to respond to it. I'll stick with a simple and heartfelt thank you and hope that it will do. Thanks and take care.

  • @B17B25guy
    @B17B25guy 11 лет назад

    Superb playing, Troy. A great bass line too. It's interesting that Harrison originally accused McCartney of 'scribbling' all over his song. When, historically Macca always 'plays to the song' ...sometimes with the most unusual lyrical phrasing, such as tunes like this one and 'Glass Onion'. Probably, one of the most 'musical' players ever.

    • @TJH3113
      @TJH3113  11 лет назад

      Thanks. I'm not much of a Beatles aficionado but do respect them and McCartney. I read somewhere once that he would record his bass lines last in order to make the parts stand out and not clash with anything else. I think I'd love to have the opportunity to do that.
