Dεath - Pull the Plug | BASS COVER + TAB
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 апр 2023
- After receiving more votes than any other song, 'Pull the Plug' secured its place in the CLASSICS collection: a list of dεath metal's most influential, long-standing tracks. Over the coming months, I will be doing a number of these, each featuring a custom-written bass tab.
This song is an absolute ripper, replete with tempo changes and unexpected chord progressions to always keep the listener on their toes. Tabbed by ear and performed as faithfully as I could manage-aside from playing it fingerstyle, rather than with a pick. Because the song was not recorded to a click, the timing is a bit uneven, so the tab doesn't always stick tight to the recording.
Lemme know your thoughts and what you wanna see next!
Tuning: A D G C F A#

DAAAMN! That thumb!
It's at that awkward in-between tempo where it's a little fast (but doable) for sustained thumb but too slow to use my two-finger tremolo technique 😅
OMG, that thumb technique!!! What a beast!
Thanks dude!
Great cover! That left hand thumb technique is so incredibly solid!
Thanks dude! Always a work in progress but glad it's coming along
Hell yeah great job! That picking technique with your thumb is really clean sounding, bery impressive. I like all eras of Death, but something about Leprosy hits me the best. Would love to see your take on Choke on It one day. Lots of oddball changes on that song.
Thanks dude! I'm not super versed in their discography tbh, but if this one's received well you can bet I'll do some more :)
Straight classic. Straight rippin' it up.
Thanks dude! I can always rely on you to check it out
Pink color has never been so metal 🤘
Hell yeah🤘
i remember when this song was new .I saw Death play in a small club in Toronto back in the eighties........Great Bass cover
Thanks dude!
Awesome as always bro. Fantastic!
Thanks man, appreciate it!
I love your tone!!
Thanks dude!
Sick tone man, cheers!!
Thanks man!
Great job, man!
Thanks dude!
beautiful
Thanks man!
nice work, make more videos like this please!!!
Thanks dude, got at least two more with tabs coming!
Amazing technique !
Thanks dude!
Very nice! love the doublethumb-stuff, very clean!
Thanks man! Took me a while to get it up to speed. Pretty much the fastest I can go for more than a couple bars
@@LindenPoirier yea its definitely something that needs some practice. I can go pretty fast with it but I do lack the precision for more complex parts.
@@NewAeonWarlord When I get my guitar back, I'd like to figure out a way of using that technique in conjunction with palm muting. Not sure how, but it'd be worth it to avoid the long process of getting fast with a pick lol
@@LindenPoirier 😁 that would be cool
awesome
Thanks bro!
amazing right hand technique
Thanks dude!
6 string bass is an overkill, you need only 2 for old-school death metal 😁
Agreed, I couldn't afford more than one bass while in Japan though and still wanted to play Archspire ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Isn't it amazing how much easier double thumbing becomes when you start thinking about striking _past_ the string rather than _into_ it?
100%! I'm reminded of that when I try thumping on the high C string and there's nothing to catch my thumb on the downstroke, lol.
Is that bass custom? Sounds insane. I dig the wear on the body
Thanks dude, sure is! I'm pleasantly surprised with all the tones I've been able to get out of it.
You double thumb it; I just use hold onto my pointing finger with my thumb and "fu" finger, and strum like a maniac. I dig your style, you know this.
Ah, that would work well too! I should try that sometime, probably utilizes the same muscles involved with standard guitar picking more so than double thumbing.
@@LindenPoirier Yes, I find double thumb tricky for "super" fast playing, I think I need to practice it more, but I'm comfortable using the maniac style I was talking about with my pointy finger. My thing I have to work on as a bass player, is strumming a consistent note for a long time using my fingers; it's the only reason I bring this up.
(I believe the ladies love it too for different reasons)
Thanks for the inspiration.
Fuckin sick man!
Thanks man!
Awesome! Having just bought a bass guitar and I was figuring this song out, I found this video! Awesome and very helpful! Are you a lefty or did you mirror this because you're smart? Because I found it very helpful to have a mirror image instead of watching a right-handed bassist playing this. And another question, why do you play (at the end) D7 D3 D8 and no G2 D3 G3? Newb question maybe...
Thanks for reaching out, glad it's helped you!
Yes, I am a real lefty, and the main reason I played it that way is for tonal consistency, since I like the way the D string sounds and feels more. I also like the way it looks more in video, but that's trivial. Both are perfectly fine ways of playing it and if you're still getting comfortable with the fretboard, the G2 D3 G3 way is definitely gonna be more consistent.
@@LindenPoirier Thanks for your reply! Makes sense. I have this video on repeat. Well done!
@@DEADLINETV no prob! Lemme know if you want tabs for any songs on the channel.
@@LindenPoirier Thanks! Much appreciated! I've looked through your covers and before I reach that level, it will take me a lot of years! But I do love the Old Skool Death Metal! But I'm sure that is easy stuff for you.
@@DEADLINETV Some of it is! Some of those guys really know how to rip, though. If you come across anything on my channel you wanna try and learn, I've got tabs available for just about any of them.
i came for a bass cover only to find another video where the bass is mixed too low to actually hear anything interesting from the player. this almost sounds like the studio version so why even bother if you arent gonna actually show off your ability to play the song and bury yourself under the mix.
Thank you! I know you're trying to be insulting, but the fact that you can't tell how loud I actually am in this video is a huge compliment.
homie this is just you admitting you have shit headphones. it's super audible
@@radMisc yeah you're right i do have shit headphones as i just played this through my speakers and it sounds better. i was wrong.
@@rorke47 fair enough fair enough
