How the hell do you bass players play the D and G strings without using your thumb to mute the above strings??? I just don’t see how that’s even possible to not mute those strings and to not hit them accidentally
Thanks for letting me play BEHS through you. I have an autoimmune disease that has ruined my hands and I haven't been able to play for years. You make me want to battle through and play again. Your content is great, it's informative and fun. Thanks man, you are a great "Behs-ist".
Instead of 'fighting', I suggest you try a philosophically different approach to dealing with the autoimmune disease. I had a friend who had serious Lupus and while working in Africa was taken to a South African hospital because his kidneys were failing due to the medication. In desperation he asked me for help, so I found a kinesiologist local to him in the same town who had loads of testimonials. After two sessions his Lupus went away, he was able to stop taking the drugs completely and his kidneys made a full recovery. Orthodox medicine is great for life-threatening emergencies, but the longer and slower the condtion the worse it gets at truly understanding it and I think you'll find it worthwhile exploring other options that are less about overriding the body and more about understanding it and dancing WITH the body.
This is basically how I taught myself bass. I had this Alligator Records 4 CD collection that was *all* blues songs, and I would sit in the dark, figure out whatever key songs were in, and just feel out different attack styles and walk patterns in 12-bar along with the music.

Looks like a Squier CV from around 2010/11. Lovely basses, hi mass bridge as standard, brass saddles as standard. Far better than the current CV range.
You’re a really great bass player…sometimes I fell like I want to stop to play bass, but when i Watch you , I just want to continue . Thank you Danny for your videos. Greetins from Italy 🇮🇹♥️
Though, I am not a bass player, your musicianship is outstanding. When I was in junior college, I saw more bass players on campus than electric or acoustic guitar players. The bass and drums have a more symbiotic connection in a band. The guitar and piano also have this connection in a band if a band had either or both either in rock, jazz, or blues.
I am 50 years old, and just recently decided I'd like to learn to play a musical instrument, so I chose bass. After my choice I scoured the internet and RUclips for what Behs has the sound which is sweetest to my ear, and although I landed on the Music Man Sting Ray I felt $4,000 for an instrument I'm not sure I'll be able to learn was a bit steep, so I just found a cheap Ibanez that I paid $150 for. I thought about a Sterling SUB, but I read about too many negs and not enough pos, so I just found a bass that is going to be a learner. After seeing a couple of your shorts I subscribed to your channel and I love your videos. Keep it up, and I'm steady practicing. There's definitely a learning curve, and I don't get as much practice as I'd like, but we're moving, so I'll have my own music room, and my wife will be in Europe for the entire month of August, so I'll grow exponentially during that month
This is awesome! Also, perfect time to mention that you should do the bass tone for Tommy Shannon from Double Trouble and Sir Dusty Hill from ZZ Too! Please!!
I'm a drummer, used to play in a few metal bands so I am accustomed playing with bass players who were not talented or skillful enough to be guitarists. But BEHS, particularly in metal, has so much unused potential. A great sounding bass in the right hands beats any frivolous guitar shredder any time.
That started out sounding a lot like Tommy Shannon from Double Trouble (SRV's band) but escalated quickly. BTW, I think the reason everyone questions whether you really play bass is you are hilarious. I never met a bass player with a sense of humor before. They are always pissed off about something or other. 'No one listens to me. Even the guitar tech gets more action than I do. Why does everyone keep calling me Karl?' Whatever... Just play the one note Karl!
Love this post! How many times has the guitarist said ‘just stay on A?’ Fortunately, I own the recording studio, so I can spend some time doing the extra bass track that still supports the track and doesn’t sound like the bass player phoned it in as an afterthought. The band is usually arguing about the crazy synth part I also added to notice.

Refreshing to see another bass player that doesn't have freakishly long fingers
Agreed!!!! I mean I got huge hands but my pinkie is short and basically in any standing position it can't reach the E string.
Haha tiny little chipmunk hands plus missing a finger is why I use a pick 😆
I'm learning, though.
He's a Yorkshire troll 🧌
@@richardtomlinson2063 I'm a Detroit gnome. Takes all kinds
Josh DuBois from "The Bass Channel" seems to not have the biggest fingers and plays insanely well, just lookup their "Bass Covers" playlist
When the Rickenbacker kicks in, it's GAME OVER♠️
THE SOUND !!!
@@marSLaZZ66One of a kind

So what I'm getting from this is that a bored bassist makes everything immediately more fun? Cool!
Ye
Exactly!
Ahhh... A bored, imaginative behsist, for a bored, non-imaginative behsist just stay bored.. 😉
About sums it up.
Thank you for your wonderful lecture on why Ginger Baker hated Jack Bruce.
😂😂
Ginger went to Jack's funeral. Spoke highly of him that day.
If you think ginger hated jack Bruce you should check out what he thought of Pete brown lmao
Yeah, well he’s a Ginger.
Baker hated everybody including himself.
1:42 Lemmy is dancing the twist on his grave !! Brilliant !!
Speaking as one bassist who gets bored to tears doing 12-bar blues tunes for a whole gig. Great job, Danny!
Oh my! That escalated quickly 🤠👍
Dude, you can actually play regardless of the haters. Awesome job my fellow bass friend
Love your content Danny keep going my man love the behs
Awesome. I love it when a good bassist plays more than one string at once. That slide sh*t was wild. Very Noice 👌
Danny I've always loved your behs 😂 playing please some more
That was wicked man. ❤
That last riff was straight-up Feedtime, a brutal Australian blues-punk outfit.
The Australian music scene has always sucked

The most 'real' bass player on RUclips. Hats off to you sir ;)
Nice job. Sounds like you have some great drumming chops along with your killer bass playing!
That Rickenbacker 4001 solo is straight from Lemmy Kilmister himself. Rock on.
Great bass player , good humor in this video, always tasteful basslines from Danny
This could be my favorite from ya so far, love It!
Lets go, loved the bottle slide
Great tone on your P Behs Danny!

Pretty cool video, Danny 😎🤘🏻🎸
😂😂😂 When the Style progress... The type of "Behs" progress for a more and more agressive: P "Behs"
Holy heartburn, Batman-that Rick's tone is killer! 🤩
I love the way you play the BEHS in this videographic content.
The history of rock-and-roll in roughly two minutes.
Towards the end your walking in Colin Hodgkinson shoes.
Hahaha. Pretty cool, man!!😂😊 Fun stuff!!

You’re the real thang Dan, all the right stuff brother! 🤘🤘🤘

Can you play bass? You bloody can. That's really excellent
A drummer and 3 bassists that’s my kind of band!

Thia is the most exciting way to play behs
Bravo!
Brilliant! I've found myself in the same position 😅 I often use a beer bottle or my mic stand as a slide
Nice Danny , thats how I play blues after plus 40 years experience ! 😊

The old school Jazz bass tone was damn nice to hear again.
Best vid of yours in the last year!
1:01 sounds like Matt freeman from Rancid
Ok that was funny 10/10 fricheks
Very entertaining. That’s a great video.
You crack me up, man. Excellent! Loved that wine bottle slide bass! Just don't try that with ZZ Top.
I LOVE RICKENBACKER!

Audie Pitre Acid Bath bass tone
😂 Excellent !
Def should cover Prince’s bass playing. Saw a vid of him laying down a bass track for the Batman movies. . . True artistry.
Nice! Bit of a Jerry Scheff vibe about some of this and he could play.
Absolutely love your bess
Awesomeness love it 😎

2nd that
Place your amp in a freezer and record through a potato phone
@@H-Real_8you mean a rotten potato phone
Put elastic bands on a tissue box and pluck the hell out of that. You'll know it when you get there.
I AGREE!! from whati do know.. he uses distortion on his bass :3
you've opened my eyes to a whole new world of playing, thank you, I will like and subscribe (do I have to wear a hat?)
Ahhhhhhh Daniel San!!!!....you're a Multi-Instumentalist as well 👍👍👍
Finally someone demoing a Jazz bass the way I want to play one, instead of the way Jaco played one.
Bro. Yiu f**ken rock there buddy. Great fingers, but great picking too.
🤘🏻!🤘🏻! Love the Rick!!
The sleep pants underneath is a good touch
Love the lemmy tone!🤘🤘🤘
Fantastic!!! wish i coulda hit like twice
I used to play alternate notes with my picking hand under the neck, then over the neck. Always used to freak someone out.
Yeah. Awesome!
Thanks! Why do you think of DD Verni of Overkill? I always liked him especially on “Feel The Fire”.
