Yeah, my guitarist recently had to keep a noise coming out of my bass while I got the levels right on the mixing desk (tech was away) and when I got back he just said "Can I keep it?" Lmao. There's just something about the bass that feels better to play
Best feeling in the world. A tool that is nearly almost exclusively for me and not over 70% of the population on this earth. That's fucking awesome haha
Every guitarist can play a bass, but not every guitar player can play a bass like a bassist. THAT is the big difference. My advice to any bands out there that are “searching” for bassists, don’t just settle and stick the guy who is the least talented on guitar in the band on bass. Find a bassist, Not just a bass player.
I agree. The purpose of my joke video is that a guitarist doesn't 'get it' when it comes to bass. I was a guitarist but my older brother played bass, and I saw how different of a discipline it is overall.
@@JacobGivens definitely! I love your content brother, I play guitar, bass, drums, sing and I’m trying to become competent on keyboard, but that thought occurred to me when I would record bass after having written a guitar part for a song, as well as being in bands with the crappy guitar player made to play bass in the band, trying to get him to understand that drums and bass are the band and the rest of the instruments are just colors over top of what we’re doing. Thanks for the reply!
Exactly. I consider myself a pianist, guitarist, vocalist. And while I can play drums and bass, both competently, I am far far away from considering myself a drummer or a bassist. My band all switches instruments in the writing process, but when it comes to recording, for instance, maybe I wrote a cool drum beat that we love, but the drummer learns the part super quick and can already play it ten times better… it’s a fun process and no egos. We know what we’re good at technically, but it can be nice to get ideas from others and refine them and perform them better.

Besides the Bald Nu Metal Bassist who's an alcoholic or an chronic pothead or the hella stoned Nu Metal Bassist with colored dreads who's got a piercing on his face or just hella piercings, then you got the Death Metal Bassist with hella long hair who plays only 5 & 6 string basses and plays only finger style and with no pick and always stays young for some odd reason and never seems to age or wrinkle up
Don't feel bad. Drummers have to sacrifice every other cognitive function in order to completely rewire their brain to function as not just one but several perfect metronomes. It's a gift I wouldn't wish on my enemies.
Thats not even a thing ... Ive never in my 30 years as a professional musician had a drummer wanting to play my bass or any other instrument for that matter.
I learned from years of home recording that sometimes it's better to let someone else write and play the bass part. Once you've written the guitar part, you're in a certain headspace with the song, and sometimes that bassline you hear in your head is lacking that certain something that would really make it pop. In cases like that, the input of another musician can sometimes be just what a song needs. I've had friends listen to my stuff and come back with keyboard parts, basslines, all manner of stuff that was way better than what I had laid down, and I think I'm a better musician today because of it.
I wish I could find a bassist. I need someone to help with the workload. I have a friend who is the only bassist I know, that isn't in a band. He's an alcoholic, so there's the reason. every other musician I meet is either a guitarist, or a drummer.
As a guitar player, I've always had the utmost respect for bass guitar players. It's just a different approach all together. I've long felt I just didn't have the funk to make it sing lol.
OMG WHY IS THIS SO RELATABLE??? One of my best friends is a bassist and I’m a guitarist and one time I was trying to teach her something that I made up or had learn (I don’t remember exactly how I found the little riff) but while I was teaching her, she staring at me and her bass with a dead face lol. I had to cut it short bc I’ve never seen her act like that before. Come to think of it the riff was lame lol.
The best thing about a proper bassist is that they could show off, but they choose not to, because they care more about the song sounding coherent than getting noticed. They are a different breed, at least the real ones are.
To play bass your mindset has to be different than the guitar player. You are mostly there to set a groove, to play in harmony, to lock with the drummer and to make the song sound like actual music. NEVER underestimate the power of great bassists !!!
For sure. As a guitarist I can say for sure that not everyone that plays the bass is a bass player. A real bass player can make your part sound different and much better while "hiding" in the background and can also shred themselves when appropriate. Not to mention how they groove with the percussion. I started on bass around 13 yo (though I'd played guitar a bit going back to like 8) because it's what I had access to at the time. Well, technically my first instrument was drums that i got at 7 but my older brother took those over and destroyed them. 😅... Anyway, I always played bass like a guitarist though I did learn the basic principles of "less is more" and specifically voicing and how that can have a huge effect on the music in whole.
Word. I’ve played in bands with true bassists and bands with “I bought a bass once” bassists. The difference is like heaven. Timing is obviously the key, but then there’s the dynamics, the tone, the technique, the songwriting. An adept bassist is as important as anything!
It kinda is tho... yes theres crazy shit thats unique to bass, but most songs in pop/rock are just "root note" basslines that require no brain or skill at all
@@dinonuggies2276 nah nah, it's about staying in perfect sync with the drummer, and adding fills. Think of a pop song being played live, the drummer is probably going to improvise stuff, and the bassist has to match that. Bass is about holding down a solid foundation to the music.
@@WLxMusic i hear that a lot but then again... everyone has to be on time... and if youre playing more complex music youre prolly not gonna improvise that much since youre playing to a click anyway
Ok even if they all play the same things I will still commend any guitarist who at least respects the bass enough to play it at all and not call it an easy guitar lol
Bro i started playing bass at the start of this year and this video called me out so hard. Especially Dawn Patrol lmao, this is literally all the stuff I’ve been learning
In my worship band I noticed my bass player and so many other bands. The bass player always seems quiet and very sure of his craft and almost aggravated if someone tries to step in his space. Lol. This was a great example of a guitarist versus a base player and the way they can act at times
I am today years old, learning that Deftones is basically just a bunch of bassists. (This is completely and entirely utterly, only a little bit sarcastic.)
In the previous lineup my band had I played bass. Im not a bassist and have never owned one, just play guitar. I learned really quickly that a good bassist looks at a bass and their part in the music completely differently then I do. We got a real bassist now and I went back to guitar lol
Yep, it's like comparing a muscle car to a semi. Guitarists still want to do doughnuts in the semi when there's serious work to be done. Double metaphor because few people want to do the serious work.
I'm a guitarist that was recruited to play bass in a 3 piece. My goal was to be the bass player I've always wanted. It worked out great, and I made creative lines that helped to propel the rest of the band rather than doubling the root guitar stuff. It was fun and challenging. 🤘

As a songwriter and guitarist with a degree in music that has toured, recorded and played everything from medium sized festivals with +1000 people to clubs infront of 5 bored girlfriends drinking free beer. I have one tip for my fellow songwriters. For every 1 average/good/great rythm section there is probably 500k to 1mil guitarists that can do exactly what your current guitarist does, there is a severe inflation of guirtarists in the world after all. So as a songwriter, if you find a good bass player and/or drummer hold on to them for dear life. If your guitarist decides to pipe up/create drama/take up more space than the group dynamic allows for, just throw em out. Lastly to my fellow guitarists, you are a musican first and guitarist second and music is a Co-Op activity, not PvP. Also trying to show off for your friends is cringe at best and when you do it on your band mates instrument of choice its also socially effed in the context of band dynamics. Find a partner that strokes your fragile ego instead, at least then when he/she leaves becasue you are a insecure ass your band/friends are still there for you
Inaccurate. No guitarist can play bass this well. Usually you get horrible fret buzz, all strings ringing simultaneously, while they're attempting to play Seven Nation Army.
In my experience it would go like this: Step 1: Start shredding with a pick even though it sounds horrible Step 2: Realize it's a bass, start slapping over a pickup so it sounds horrible Step 3: Realize that all above sounded like crap, and start playing with fingers but with **that** specific dorky guitar player hand position.
Keep in mind, THIS GOES BOTH WAYS............. When the Bassist comes up and says, dude can i play your guitar for a second and then only plays the bottom 2 strings and gets confused when he gets to the High E String
I really dislike this video because there was no joke to it. I thought there was a joke coming but everything I needed to know about this video was in the thumbnail.
I want to start a band but I have no idea what to do. I would want it to be a mix between SP, Weezer, 311, and Sufjan Stevens. And the Postal Service. I love singing, and I could eventually be good if I keep practicing daily. I subbed to yoir channel to keep in touch.
This is 😂 it's hard to explain, like others said, playing bass is setting a groove, whenever my guitar playing friends play my bass I'm always: dude, it's a bass, stop playing it like a guitar! 😂 Things took a weird turn when my compadre came to me one day : compadre, I'm playing bass! And I'm like really, that's cool compadre! Turns out he joined a band, he's not a bad guitarist by any means but these guys needed a bass player and he had kept one of my basses and he's like "oh I have a bass ". So I went and saw them playing at a local fair. I didn't have the heart to say to him he was playing bass (again) like a guitar player 😅
I experienced the same thing while being in several bands for 10 years. You need to know that I played both, the bass and guitar in bands. But always like 2nd guitar. But one day our lead guitarist asked if he can play the bass and then he improvised the sh*t out of it like he has been playing bass for ages. Needles to say he also was better on the guitar then me. XD Which depressed me a little but inspired me more to give 100% in learning my craft.^^ Do I or our lead guitarist make musik in bands anymore nowadays? No XD But we remain best friends because there is no jealousy or competing against each other in our friendship. Still I miss the times and would love to know if we would ever have succeeded as a band with this dynamic.
I can see future me if I ever do buy a guitar and learn it doing this. I know nothing about the bass other than the fact that it's usually used as a backup instrument or something.
Coming from someone who picked up a bass last week and has been playing guitar for 15 years, this is legit To be in the groove while creating the groove is a whole new feel
No “Give It Away”? No “Everything In Its Right Place”? No “You Make My Dreams Come True”? No “Hey Man, Nice Shot”? No “Cult Of Personality”? No “Come As You Are”? No “Jeremy”? No Shirt, No Shoes, No Problem? No Rules, Just Right?
I actually love when guitarists wanna try the bass. It's nice to see them happy every once in a while.

That gave me a legit giggle 👍🏻

Where the fuck were you for the 20 years I spent on tour?
Lol, my go to is hysteria
Inaccurate. No guitarist can play bass this well. Usually you get horrible fret buzz, all strings ringing simultaneously, while they're attempting to play Seven Nation Army.
Mountain song let’s go
Playing schism and getting the triplets wrong is so funny 😂
This was made by a bassist. Can confirm we guitarists DO NOT do this. Sorry bassists. Maybe next time
Yep, that's my husband pretty much every time he picks up my bass
DUCK TALES! AwhOOOhHOOO!! At least he’s got great taste in riffs!! Alice+Tool+Metallica = AliTooliCa!!!😂🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
For whom the bell tolls
In my experience it would go like this:
Step 1: Start shredding with a pick even though it sounds horrible
Step 2: Realize it's a bass, start slapping over a pickup so it sounds horrible
Step 3: Realize that all above sounded like crap, and start playing with fingers but with **that** specific dorky guitar player hand position.
Keep in mind, THIS GOES BOTH WAYS............. When the Bassist comes up and says, dude can i play your guitar for a second and then only plays the bottom 2 strings and gets confused when he gets to the High E String
this guy always nails it,,love you bro
Oh boy another weirdo online who's idea of comedy is making normal human social behaviour seem like something we should think is odd.
I really dislike this video because there was no joke to it. I thought there was a joke coming but everything I needed to know about this video was in the thumbnail.
I want to start a band but I have no idea what to do. I would want it to be a mix between SP, Weezer, 311, and Sufjan Stevens. And the Postal Service. I love singing, and I could eventually be good if I keep practicing daily. I subbed to yoir channel to keep in touch.
This is 😂 it's hard to explain, like others said, playing bass is setting a groove, whenever my guitar playing friends play my bass I'm always: dude, it's a bass, stop playing it like a guitar! 😂 Things took a weird turn when my compadre came to me one day : compadre, I'm playing bass! And I'm like really, that's cool compadre! Turns out he joined a band, he's not a bad guitarist by any means but these guys needed a bass player and he had kept one of my basses and he's like "oh I have a bass ". So I went and saw them playing at a local fair. I didn't have the heart to say to him he was playing bass (again) like a guitar player 😅
I love how you play schism sloppy while you look up LOLOL
Can confirm. I’ll grab the bass, play the bass line for No More Tears and feel like a god. A cheap, cheap god.
I experienced the same thing while being in several bands for 10 years. You need to know that I played both, the bass and guitar in bands. But always like 2nd guitar.
But one day our lead guitarist asked if he can play the bass and then he improvised the sh*t out of it like he has been playing bass for ages. Needles to say he also was better on the guitar then me. XD
Which depressed me a little but inspired me more to give 100% in learning my craft.^^
Do I or our lead guitarist make musik in bands anymore nowadays? No XD
But we remain best friends because there is no jealousy or competing against each other in our friendship. Still I miss the times and would love to know if we would ever have succeeded as a band with this dynamic.
I can see future me if I ever do buy a guitar and learn it doing this. I know nothing about the bass other than the fact that it's usually used as a backup instrument or something.
As a lifelong bassist, all the drummers I played with "tolerated" me!😂(because yes, I'm that good😉)
Coming from someone who picked up a bass last week and has been playing guitar for 15 years, this is legit
To be in the groove while creating the groove is a whole new feel
You forgot getting into play that funky music.. or feel good inc.. haha
No “Give It Away”? No “Everything In Its Right Place”? No “You Make My Dreams Come True”? No “Hey Man, Nice Shot”? No “Cult Of Personality”? No “Come As You Are”? No “Jeremy”? No Shirt, No Shoes, No Problem? No Rules, Just Right?
Now, I can only laugh....as I read our epitaph....
