I originally had "The Trooper" by Steve Harris/Iron Maiden at number 15, but apparently my cover was so accurate that CZcams thought it was the original recording and demonetized the entire video 🤣

I’m living in Sweden man and all my love to you, and your videos.
Love all your slappadidelitapido and all, it would be so AWSOME to get a Signed bass from you man 🙏 All love and support to your big fan BearnO
clearly something from tim commerford
Hey Charles,
I am from Germany. My brother is in a band and the bassist left the band a while ago because he had to move in a far away city due to a new job. My brother asked me several times if I want to join them, but I have no bass yet. I can play the guitar, so the learning process should be a bit quicker I guess.
You are a huge inspiration for every musican I know in person regardless wich instrument they are playing.
Keep up the great work Charles :)
Did you eventually start playing bass?
yep!@@Aiikolo
Never been so much in love with bass, after watching you when you defend the Italian bass, I am so much addicted to your new videos you upload, I am so thankful to you and more over for your humble presentation and your skillful playing I just love you,
I never own a bass, I would be proud to have one,
Eddie Moore from North Eastern India
Great job as usual Charles. I really dig the drum programming you do to accompany these segments. I also find it interesting to observe some of the differences in the fret choices you use in contrast to the typical choices I use. Keep up the great work!
I'm from Australia, and honestly, I really love reading through and getting to know everyone's reasons and interest in music and bass guitar! What an awesome comments section ;) I'm currently learning the guitar, but I also really love the sound of bass guitars, so groovy. Definitely aiming to learn a few instruments and music theory in my life
Country: US
Reason: I've been playing guitar for years and years and have been hitting the point where I want to start exploring other instruments beyond just messing around with them. The electric bass (thanks to your videos!) has me excited to dive into bass the same way I did with guitar and relive the magic of learning a new instrument all over again.
Man... I'm speechless in all your videos when I watch them, such an awesome technique!
Thanks for your music, from Catalonia 🤘🏻
Country: United States of America
So, I had a friend share your video the other day with you playing Californication. I was blown away by it. Your abilities are off the charts and your mind for it too, it just brought me back to when I played bass. I always wanted to play and for my 13th birthday my mother took me to a pawn shop to buy a bass. A four string sunset casino, I loved it. The feel, the sounds, and the joy I got playing it. Well, many years later, I'm 28, and I haven't played a bass in years on years. Watching the Billboarr Music Awards with my girlfriend off recording and here comes Duran Duran to play, for whatever reason they made me want to play bass, just the groves in their music always hit me, and it was the bass, I had to play. Well I told my girlfriend that story and this was already after I saw your amazing video and many more when I went down the rabbit hole. Now all I keep coming back to is what are the chances? I see your video, your giving away a bass, and then later on I'm watching my TV and the band that inspired me to ever pick up a bass in the first place is on, it's crazy to me. But, I finally got the courage to just write it all out, because it just doesn't happen like that always.
Thank you for reading and thank you for the consideration.
I am thrilled you played "Ramble On", one of the very bass lines I've always loved and that made me begin bass in the very first place ! Not often mentioned, but so great ! I'd love to see you play Led Zeppelin's "What is and What Should never be", which is every bit as good !
Love ur channel, keep going man !
Hello from the USA! Wanted to throw my hat into the ring. Just back from visiting my grandchildren for the first time in a year and a half. (COVID) Played some of your music for my grandchildren. My sweet ginger-haired six year old grandson was mesmerized by your “medieval” tuned composition. He would be blown away with your gift. I would love to encourage his love for real music. I’m happy to send a pic of my little dude, if you wish! Win or lose, please know how much I appreciate your talent. Be well!
I'm originally from Brazil, but have been living in the UK since 2014. I used to play bass when I was in my teens. It has been about 20 years since I played and I'd love start again.
Thanks for the inspiration!
Cheers
Ed
Hi there from Argentina.
Havent played bass in my life yet I watch all your videos. There is something captivating in bass lines. I always find myself trying to hear the bass in any songs.
Id love to have one this to start learning.
Cheers!
I played guitar in the mid 70’s. Richard Mason was my tutor.
Then life happened. I gave it up to follow a career in engineering
I always had it in my mind to retire one day and play again
Then in 2003 i had a mv accident that basically left me a quad
Took me 14 months to recover
Sequestrated and divorced i carried on and submerged myself in expat lonely lifestyle to survive
My 10 year sequestration went from 2005-2015 so never really had time to build up a retirement kitty proper
Now in my 60’s i would really really like to play even tho my legs are wooden from the knees down and my hands and fingers do not have too much feeling
I can just say i truly enjoy your playing and watch yourself, Marcin and Luca
You guys inspire me
I have the regret of never continuing something i always loved : playing the guitar
So i can tell all of you reading this, take EVERY OPPORTUNITY to follow your dreams and make them happen.
You never know when your life is going to change in the blink of an eye and you may have regrets
Take care
Keep on keeping on
Heads up
Eyes open
No fear
All the way from South Africa
Your story really motivated me to try my best in following my dream
Well, I thought about trying to get this bass but my bass stands right next to me and it is a pretty good beginner bass with even more frets than the bass you could win here. So for me there is actually no real point in taking part in this lottery. Especially now that i have heard this story, I would not appreciate getting this bass myself as much as knowing, that someone like C C got it. So if my opinion even matters and if it is possible, i would vote for this guy to get the bass instead of taking part myself. If not, I still wish you all the best and good luck from Germany.
I am sorry for the bad English.
All we can do is never give up and move forward
Give this man a bass, Charles!
Country : Portugal
The reason is the sound and the low end that bass as that guitar (instrument that i play) doesnt have. I admire a lot of bass players because of their groove and way of playing and it just sparkles my brain and makes me want to learn how to play bass
Hi I'm from Germany!
The bass lines always were what I liked the most about many songs.. Theres so much variety to it and it sounds so cool or funky. I've recently (maybe due to covid) really gotten into watching countless CZcams videos of people playing it...and I really want to learn it myself.. It would be a way to escape the stress from studying for exams and experience music on another level than just trough my headphones.
Country: USA
I've played music for most of my life starting with the piano when I was about 4 years old and moving on to percussion all through middle school and high school and picking up guitar along the way. In college I studied engineering and every semester that I took a music for non-majors class I aced all of my engineering coursework. For me, learning and playing music seems to be something that helps me to be my best self. Unfortunately, once I started my professional career, got married, had kids... music has really just fallen by the wayside. Finding your channel has inspired me to pick up music once again and I think this time I'd like to try bass and really strive to learn and practice but also to enjoy the journey of learning and playing music once again because when I'm playing and learning music, I think it helps me to be a better father, husband, and employee. Cheers!
Really enjoyed the video. Definitely wanted more of La Villa Stragiato! When will we see part 2? By the way, you’ve also clearly shown that as long as there are not obvious/significant defects with the instrument and it’s setup sufficiently, it’s not the bass, it’s the player.
The isolation of the bass really gives the sense of the flow and feel of each of these songs. Much appreciated for putting this together! 🫀🫀
I live in the USA and I’ve been looking at getting a bass guitar. My brother essentially taught himself to ply the guitar and he’s really trying to learn to write his own songs. He’s been a huge inspector for me to get into playing music and also played a heavy influence on my taste of music. With him playing the guitar I wanted to be different. The bass guitar plays a huge yet hidden role in music and I love the sound. Due to life and how it can throw you a curveball sometimes, my budget has gotten tight. I love watching your channel and watching you play. Your sounds is amazing And I’d be honored to get one of your bass guitars to learn to play. Id never get rid of it and it’d always be a prized possession.
Country: Nigeria
Reason: I never thought I could love bass the way I do now because of the way you play it. I first started from watching Davie504 videos, and I was amazed at how nice the bass can be until I met you. You just blew my mind and the passion to slap/tap the bass has been unrelenting since August 2020. I have watched all your videos till date through a third party app because CZcams is expensive to use in this part of my country. Even If you might not read this. I don't regret sending it. You inspired me in your 'I almost quit video's talking about how you practice 8 hours a day, not even knowing the outcome. Same with me.. I play the acoustic guitar... I have so much passion for acoustic and bass and I have sacrificed so much not caring what the outcome would be. The Joy is in the playing.. Lol. You inspire a lot of us. Keep going 👍
This was supposed to be a short post.. Sorry for the outburst.
Country: Canada
Reason: My girlfriend used to play the bass when she was younger and I've always wanted to learn to play it. It would be such an amazing thing to do together!
I’m in the USA and I want to play bass solely because listening to you makes me want to learn!
Hi, I'm Kristjan from Slovenia.
You and Davie really made me appreciate bass even more than I already did.
You are a real master of bass.
I am from Nicaragua 🇳🇮 and I like your videos. Funny and you have great skills. Bass is been my favorite instrument artist and however, never made it to Lear, since some things were more accessible, so looking to learn will be like a "dream come true"!
Country: Canada
Reason: I had to play bass recently in school. I loved it, always wanted one. Never owned one. I'm heading off to uni in the fall and really want to learn more, but I don't have much in the money department.
Hey Charles I just started paying bass 7 months ago I started seeing your videos and i thought: woow this instrument is so damn cool I got my first bass on my birthday and I've been playing every day just to be like you i want a bass coming for you and even with your signature!, it will be so cool!, I live in Colombia!
tuki
Hello! I'm from the US! I already play an ibanez 5 STRING as my starter bass and have been playing for about 4-5 years now. I was first introduced to you from Davies 5er videos and have been watching ever since! Keep up the great content mate!
Country: Slovenia
I've played flute for more than 10 years and i learned guitar (chords)by myself and one thing that really makes me happy are low notes. I can spend hours just jamming on e string on my acoustic guitar and when i found out your channel i got addicted to this fat low sound of bass and the glory of slapping and tapping. Please keep on doing this videos cause you are amaziiiing. 👌👌
Im 31 and been a guitar player since 11
I started playing bass 3 years ago cause ive found that a single bass note has THE power to change THE feeling of THE entire song and THAT is amazing, it hits different
Much love from Rio de Janeiro- Brasil 🇧🇷!
Country: Argentina
Reason: I simply love the sound of the bass, that low or deep sound. Since I started listening to the Red Hot Chili Peppers I love this instrument, the way flea gives it a lot of protagonism and a more important role in the band. My family can't really afford a bass and the one I currently own isn't in a very good condition. Love your channel by the way, keep up with the good work.
Y el dolar aca esta a 170, y eso no ayuda en nada xd

Country: United States
Several years ago I picked up the bass and started fiddling around with it.
Unfortunately it was my brother-in-law's and it left with him after not very much time.
Ive always been drawn to percussion but love melodies and harmonies and everything in between. The bass guitar to me is the perfect amalgam of all those things to me, and I've really been introduced to its aspects of melody and beauty in watching your videos these past years!
Thank you for sharing!
I'm from Spain and i love bass and want to play it because here in youtube are people like you who are awesome playing and that inspires me to start playing it
Country: Russia
Reason: My father was a bassist in his youth, and recently I found his old bass, but it was broken. He showed me some old recordings, and it really made me want to play bass!
Next video: Red Hot Chill Pepers - Around The World.
Please
Real
These are awesome! You are an unbelievable player. I have just started learning and was inspired by you when you played the seemingly impossible version of beat it! Amazing!
Always enjoy your licks. Great technique!
Keep up the great work. 😎✌️
Country: United States
Reason: I've never liked stringed instruments in my life, and though I was fine with typical stringed instruments in a symphony orchestra like violin, cello, etc., I was never into the sound of guitar/bass at all. After watching Davie's video where you were introduced to me, I was at first intrigued by the sheer skill with all the techniques despite my lack of knowledge regarding bass. After I started following your videos, I realized that bass can be an awesome instrument that sounds beautiful, which also helped me to appreciate guitars more (I have added composers' guitar sonatas to my classical playlist since). Though I'm mainly a classical listener, I got to know of awesome bassists like Victor Wooten and Michael Manring through you. I play piano, but bass is definitely something I would now love to get into, though I'm not sure how good I can get when I'm already 20 years old :/. Nonetheless, I'll continue to enjoy your videos Charles, thanks for opening up the world of bass to me.
Your technique may be the cleanest I've ever heard, even at faster tempos where some of the supposed professionals fall apart a bit. Just incredible playing. Keep up the great work
Charlie is the Pro. Never forget that.
I live in Bavaria/Germany and would like this wonderful beauty for my son who is diligently learning guitar, playing piano and some drums. He wants to study music at university next year and a bass would definitely complete his understanding of music. I watch all your videos with enthusiasm and hope very much that you will continue to inspire your fans with your amazing playing for a long time to come. We both like Queen, Tool and many other guitar oriented bands.
Hey I am from Australia,
I started learning guitar about a year ago and since then I have started watching videos on CZcams about them.
That is when I started seeing Bass videos. People slappin n tappin amazing Bass lines!!
You can get such a cool sound from a Bass I would love to get into it and Slap n Tap!
Country: France
Reason: as a long time guitar player i wanted to try another instrument, but when i found your videos i was amazed by the groove it radiates, i want play bass, i want groovy, can i have da groovy?
Anyone can have da groovy if they really want da groovy
I realize that I'm almost a year late on this video, but some of my favorite Bass Lines from songs are "The Chain" Fleetwood Mac, but I've heard Lindsey Buckingham in a HUGE blocker of all his music he wrote; also most of the songs on Forhat's album Fool for the City
Massive hi from down under in Australia!! Mate, let me first just say that I've watched so many of your video's and just wow dude!! You are AMAZING!!
Playing bass is something I've always wanted to do. Even more so since I lost my father not so long ago. My dad was a sick bass guitarist when he was alive. He loved playing everything from funk to jazz. I have all my dad's old bass books to learn from but no guitar to learn on.
Please PLEASE help me keep my dad's legacy alive...!!
Much love.
Country: England
I would love to start playing bass. My 14yr old son plays guitar to a high standard and I'd love to start jamming with him.
Also wanted to say I have been very inspired (and entertained!) by your channel. Keep it up!
Thanks 😊
Charles man, I live over in the states and have been playing on this dean bass I was able to afford that was only $150. I’m happy that I was able to learn how to play the bass on that specific piece, financially I’m out of a job and am looking for one but would also like to pursue what I can in music. Thanks for making these dope videos, not only do they enlighten me on certain things you have learned but they are a source of my entertainment in my day to bring me joy. Keep slappin and tappin till you can’t no more.
I'm from :Bangladesh
Reason: I really love bass! And you inspired me to start playing bass. I wanna be like you💓.
Cheers from Brazil! I want to start playing bass mainly because of the styles of music i've grown to love and study here in our culture. Styles like bossa nova, Brazilian Popular Music and other jazz derivative Brazilian styles are all so groovy and unexplainably beautiful to listen, so I decided I want to make part of it as well, by playing bass (mu favourite instrument to listen to) and returning the favor to my culture, while I spread it wherever I go.
Been a subscriber over rather last few days and you've actually made me inspired to get back to bass ... I've been a bassist 30 odd years ago.. lost total touch... fingers are all rusted but really inspired by your prowess on all you vids I've been following .. hey am sure there are more worthier beginners than me but to thot since u said ud be reading thru all comments.. jsit wanted to say you are really inspiring scores around the world to get back on to the bass .. just like me .. they say if u like what u hear it's cos u can do it thsts why u like it .. well I love what I hear... and yes if I get lucky ... would love it even more.. anywhich way.. keep rocking bro.. your bass lines are truly AWESOME!!! AM FROM India 🇮🇳 by the way.. God Bless

I greatly appreciate that this was "best" and not hardest. Illustrates the whole spectrum of what bass can do.

-Played sax growing up, uncle played bass and I loved it. Wanted to learn, parents suggested I do guitar first, but it didn't "click" for me like sax or bass. I'd sit around after my guitar lessons trying out basses, but I couldn't afford one. Life got in the way for a lot of years, and I have had it in the back of my mind to go back to bass for a while now. I discovered Charles right after the bass itch came back.

“Your piccolo bass solos with all those crazy tapping are incredibly majestic and spiritual that have opened my eyes to a whole new world of how basses can sound and I really hope to play different tracks in such style. Furthermore, little people besides me play the bass as they usually play the guitar. I want to play the bass to become their support.”
Your videos are very inspiring and I really enjoyed listening to your musics. Please keep up the good work!
Country: US
Why: I have always seen music like the highest form of art, with every instrument able to access millions of colors that we can use to paint a picture. For most of my life I have been unable to afford any sort of musical instrument, and only recently was I able to get my first piano which has brought me the greatest joy of my life. I hope I can learn bass as the critical rhythmic accompaniment to the piano and music in general, but also I hope to learn how to play melodically: gliding, slapping, and tapping my fingers effortlessly across the fretboard as you do. It looks profoundly fun to rip out solos along those wide strings, I actually find myself more attracted to bass guitar than regular guitar. Thanks for spreading the joy of bass to the world man :)
Country: USA
I play guitar since I was 14 now I am 25. Last 5 years I didn’t even take guitar in my hands. I was stucked at some techniques etc... You lighted up my music inspiration inside me. And I didn’t know that a bass guitar can be really tasteful to listen and play. I wish I started to music with bass. I want to join your bass army and slap the bass ! And love to listen your bass Charles !
Country: Philippines
Reason: Bass is always something that has intrigued me. I find it very interesting to find new ways in approaching stringed instruments, and/or how my current approaches to music and guitar fares with bass. Unfortunately I’m only 16 with no money, so I cant get bass :((
I’m going to keep commenting on this, so that you can get this bass
This is a comment.

Hey Charleesss! I've been a fan of your channel for a while now. I just dropped out of college to focus on my band. Definitely the best thing I've done in a long time. I play drumset and I have since 11 (21 now). I've been really wanting to learn bass so I can better contribute to writing out songs and getting more skills under my belt. It's always been my dream to write and produce solo music, bass seems like the best step. Love your channel!!
I live in the USA. I dabbled in bass u til I picked up the acoustic guitar and followed in my dad’s footsteps. I have gotten more into enjoying baselines in the music I listen to. I’d like to give bass another try and your videos (which I just happens upon on CZcams about a year ago) are a large part of my inspiration to return to the bass. I really dig your content!

Country : Indonesia 🇮🇩
Reason : My Father is the bass player in the Church for 15 years, but he never has a bass on his own until now because he doesn't have enough money to buy that expensive bass, he prefers to pay our tuition fee instead of his hobby, so i want to give this bass to him as my present, and also continue my bass learn from him.
Terimakasih (Thanks in Indonesia language)
I live in Finland, I’m an old guy who loves the chili peppers and Flea.
I love slap bass and that’s what I want to learn :) this bass would be kick ass for it :) Cheers to you and thanks for your videos :)
I'm from Scotland. I'd love a bass to play again, I sold my fender jazz when I fell on hard times 20 years ago and haven't picked one up since. Man these videos make me want to start playing again!!!
Country: US
-the bass makes me want to spend countless hours practicing, and playing to achieve something far beyond people limit me to! It seems that the problem is a bass is way too expensive for my overwhelming desires.
Country: Wales (UK)
Reason: My family were given this really bad and poor quality second hand bass from a friend, and I've been trying to use it and play but it's been a struggle. I have been making music with friends and it's made me super invested in learning bass but it's a struggle with my bad bass, which is so broken it cant connect to an amp and because my family is in a pretty bad financial state we cant fix it right now, and youtubers like you and other bass youtuber have been an inspiration to keep at it. Anyway, appreciate the work you do on the channel.
I hope you win it :) wish you luck for it!!
@@Sanjeet_1810 thanks alot :)
I live in the USA and I am 12 years old. I would LOVE this bass because I love watching your videos and it just makes me want to slap that bass just like you do. I look up to you and that is why I would want that beginner bass guitar. 🤘
# TAPPING GOD AND BASS GOD
Watching from Germany :) I love music and trying out new instruments. I play guitar, but I love what a BASS adds to a piece. Groove, drama, warmth, melody, melancholy...there’s so many sides. Would love to try this one too.
Australia. I've heard so many songs with cool bass, and my school band needs a bass player so I'd like to start learning.
Same! I started playing bass because my school needed a bass player as well. Like, all I can say if you do get the bass is it takes a lot of practice.
Hi! Im from israel and the reason i want to start playing bass is that i see all those awesome techinques like taping and slapping and they just look awesome and make me want to learn bass
I live in Iran. I play guitar for less than a year and I really want to learn bass. I love slapping the bass and other techniques. thx for all of ur content. I love u so much

The deep sound of bass just makes me feel so happy and the bass line of another bite the dust is sooooo nice☺️☺️

Reason : I love bass,, but I wasn't able to buy because the price is too expensive, so I hope to have it and learn so that it can be like you
Hi Charles, I'm from Colombia 🇨🇴
The reason for me playing bass it's cuz I love the importance of it among the musical assemble without being the "Spotlight Star" and that fits awesome with non-extrovert people like me.
When someone says the bass Is not important I always replies: "Have you ever tried to dance to a song with no bass?"
Love what you do, big South American fan!
Im from PHILIPPINES
Before i thought bass is boring but when i see your videos i found it nice.
Especially that tapping technique and now i want to practice base.
Definetely not a bad bass. Good luck to person who gets it.

My father spent his prime slapping his way through London in a fairly famous funk/rock hybrid band during the 90's, he passed away before I could meet him or listen to him play. All I've got in terms of his musicianship is one CD with 4 songs on it, and just those 4 have inspired me to want to play like he does, and how YOU do. Nothing would mean more to me than following in my dads footsteps and playing the bass using a bass once owned by the greatest bassist on the internet. Thanks Charles.
Country: Australia
I would love to start playing the bass after watching all your videos online but I cannot afford to get a really good one. It would be an honour to start playing bass on a bass that is signed by you. I would treasure this bass forever! Looking forward to watching more videos from you! 👍🏼
Country: US
I took up bass some 20 years ago, but sold it after only a year due to financial stress. I've never had the heart/motivation to try again, but your channel has both recalled many awesome memories and inspired me not to dwell on the regret of lost years playing. Cheers for all you do.
Turkey, I want it because the dollar rate is very high here and it is very difficult to buy guitars.
She is right. As a Turkish person I can confirm that we are poor.
She is really right, if u r living in Turkey u should pay a fortune for buy something:/
Im also by this
John Paul Jones: The Lemon Song - I still have not heard this mentioned in a "best bass lines" video and it really should be. just once!
I’ve been trying to learn the lemon song for about a month. The main riff is not that difficult, but the fills/ solos that JPJ does just drive me up the wall with how difficult they are.
So glad to see that there are more people that understand the importance of Jon Paul Jones
I agree! I tell so many people the best John Paul Jones bass song is The Lemon song but never see it on countdowns. It’s so good!
@@dovlewisgelbard JPJ is in the Pantheon of Bass Gods for sure. Not just because of his ability to shred, but serving the song and tastefully picking his spots. As a multi-instrumentalist, he’s truly a great musician. Unfortunately, he operated mostly in the shadows of Plant, Page, and Bonzo to an extent, but without his contributions, LZ isn’t LZ. A humble man and one of the all time greats!
@@mtlbstrd very true, i agree with every single point you made. Very well put too
Why I want to start playing? Sounds like a child's dream, but to feel just as cool as you sound when I watch your videos! I'm from Germany and boy my country really needs more musicians! People are waaay too nowadays and Bass as a grounding instrument is perfect for that mission! Keep on Rocking my Soul!
oh and please play some trippy storytelling Goa, like Infected Mushrooms
From Philippines,
I strted playing bass when i was 15 and enjoyed the basslines of the 80’s music ( new wave) along the way a friend of mine ( which i teach the basic notes of the bass) lend my bass (my first and favorite one, as it is given to me by my late sister as a christmas gift) and i didnt see him eversince :(.... now im playing with my generic bass( the one on my channel) my former bass guitar looks like that bass and im kinda remembering the day that my sister gave me the receipt and ask me to go to rj guitar and ask for the item in the receipt.... ohhh those were some memories 🥰🥰🥰
Man I wish I could enter, but I already have a bass. That bass sounds like everything I wanted lol. I hope whoever wins has fun with it.

Sidenote: Would love to learn and recommend Confessions of Pop group by The Style Council, the bass in that is immense
I live in the US, idc if the comp is necessarily still going on. I've played electric/acoustic(yeah I know) for almost 30 years. My dad was extremely well known as a bassist in Ohio. Actually made it to Country Concert as a entry band. But I've wanted something new and I love watching the "what if" videos. I smile around 7 or 8 in awe. Awesome work man, keep em coming!
I live in the state of Georgia in the USA, I used to own a bass years ago, but it was stolen before I ever had a chance to learn how to play. I've always enjoyed listening to the various ways people have played the bass and I'd like to try and learn some of it myself, even if I never join a group.
I know this is gonna be good.
It was good
YYZ is the most impressive one. Geddy Lee is insaneeeeeeeeeeeee man. Good luck to all the beginners out there trying to get that gorgeous bass.
Country; Egypt
I love bass guitar since as long as i can remember. I enrolled in bass guitar lessons but dont own a bass, was not able to practice. Stopped the lessons and started reading and watching videos about bass guitar. Been saving to buy but till now sadly saved about 20% of its cost. Full-time employee, father of a sweet daughter, lots of commitments. Saving the full cost of a bass and an amp will seem like around 1-2 years savings. Besides, blue is really my favorite color :) cheers to u!
I always spitted on bassists as a guitarist ;) that was before i found your channel, which i immediatly suscribed.... I live in France and would love to start learning BASS

Great list. I wonder why Cake-- "I will survive" is rarely to play. I kinda like the bassline. This song is Underrated.

I play a few instruments already and wanted to get better at Electric Bass. I already play double Bass, but I can't play as much on that as I can on Electric. I love all of the Bass videos you post, they make me want to get better!
Even if I don't win a bass Guitar, I love your videos. Watching and listening to you play is suspenseful enough that it takes my breath away! Thinking in another life, I'll learn to play the bass guitar!
Hi, i live in Norway, the reason I want to start playing is because: when i was little, the instrument i wanted to learn was bass, my parents told me to learn guitar first, and so i did, but i never got the oppertunity to learn the bass itself.
I have now started in a music school with drums as a main instrument and have chosen bass as a secondary instrument, the only problem is that ....i don't own a bass
Country: US
Reason: self taught guitarist who wants to learn the bass.
Hey, I’m from England and I want to learn bass because I currently play the guitar but have started listening to victor wooten and have fallen in love with bass so I want to be able to start learning it, thanks for the awesome content
Hello i am Alex from France. When i am watching you playing bass... I want to cut my hands. I didn't know all the possibilities of this instrument. That's why, instead of cut my hand, i will work harder. Thank you for what you do. And the fun must go on !!!

-I want to start playing bass because I want to have a musical career. Another reason I want to win the giveaway is because I can't afford one at the moment. I only own a guitar, and as I'm already experienced in instruments like the flute, I feel like I may need an approach where playing chords is not a requirement, as that is the biggest weakness in my guitar playing. After listening to your amazing compositions, I can't help but want a bass to try my hand (not saying that I'm going to try to play at your insane level). Sorry for the long read :)
In my opinion playing chords on bass is actualy realy usefull
@@Pawl4k i agree, and I think learning first the guitar is really useful to apply it to the Bass
