I feel like the 6-1-8 E string movement during ‘free falling’ evokes a sense of free falling 😊

Yours is the most unique tab I’ve come across on RUclips! Excellent job! Q: I’ve listened to song and did you just add the bass to the intro verse? I don’t really hear it till the end. Planning on doing this as a cover. When we rehearse, it sounds better when bass is omitted for that first verse. BTW:I love your slides during the Chorus.

[@Brand73]

thanks!! The bass is actually in verse in the song, it's just so buried in the mix it's hard to hear it, but as always, do whatever feels right!

Pardon my ignorance, what key is this in?

bass should be louder, song quieter. on smartphone you often cant hear the bass. ;)

[@Brand73]

In general, you always have to listen with headphones or good quality speakers to really hear the bass clearly. Smartphone speakers / TV Speakers you will barely be able to hear the bass.

[@oriza2]

@@Brand73 these days probably 90% of users are listening on phones. and that is why it is advisable to make the song quieter, they are not so much interested on that one, on a bass tutorial . they all know the song well enough. imho. and often it is done that way in other channels, so it is not impossible at all, rather easy.

[@SO-ym3zs]

I can't imagine trying to learn or listen to anything bass related on a phone. Their speakers simply can't reproduce bass frequencies properly. You really need quality speakers or headphones to hear bass frequencies the way they're supposed to sound.

[@oriza2]

@@SO-ym3zs well, I just suggested a very simple thing, to improve the video. by the way, the situation is not any better on my laptop either.
of course, you can only focus on audiofile people, who are listening on very good quality headset or speakers. it is not my decision, and does not hurt me at all. but they are the minority, so you loose a lot of possible listeners.
