I tried to add this comment with a tab, but youtube won’t let me put it up. is the shape he’s playing like this ?

(E string 12th fret, E string 15th fret*, A string 14th fret, Dstring 14th fret, D string 17th fret*) and then reverse, *=right hand.

and am I correct in saying every note is played as a hammer-on type motion, with no pulloffs etc. ?

@teaismylife247 No, im hitting the 12th fret on the E and G strings with my left hand and the 14th frets of the A and D string with my right

@McTacoKingHutJr thanks for the reply

Nice technique, but I think it would help you’re presentation to record the output of the bass and not from the camera mic. I’m hearing all of the string noise and it’s making it hard to follow exactly what you are doing.
Thanks for sharing your vids!

I got it not with your speed yet but thats a matter of practice thanks so much for the video! im gonne check out your other videos now ^^

What kind of bass is that?

@superstriker00 benavente. theyre amazing

@McTacoKingHutJr It looks and sounds beautiful. I’m not much of a bassist, I’m using a borrowed ibanez, but I think you’ve truly found your weapon of choice, eh?

@superstriker00 for now. eventually i’d like to get another with more strings =P

@McTacoKingHutJr Go for a 7 string bass.

thanks, im gonna try thing on my 7S guitar( ;] )

@w00per nice. I’ve tried it on a 6. it sounds sweet on a neck pickup if you can mute everything right.

yo this is so useful, thanks a lot for this post. now i can impress people that dont know shit about guitar and make them think im good!

@MetalBassist73 haha! exactly! except if you can get good enough to use it in a song you WILL be good

@McTacoKingHutJr your right, i meant that it is helpful in the most serious and musical way possible lol. im starting to do four finger picking thats index, middle, ring, and pinky, do you know how to do that or any tips?

wow amazing! how do you tap so well? would it be possible for you to make a video about tapping techniques?

Nice lesson helped me out a lot

Where do you find the arppegios or chords, you are using? Btw this is an awsome help!

@Metalized123 they are all the same shapes moved around! once you know the note relations to other notes you can find these anywhere. to find the third of any note, pick a note, then go one string higher and one fret back to find the major third or two frets back for the minor third. to find the fifth you pick a note and go one string higher and two frets up. the octave of a note is always two strings and two frets up from the root. mess around with these notes and the shapes in my video

@McTacoKingHutJr Thanks, just what i needed

Nice lesson
But ive been wanting to know, how would you put this in a (Deathmetal song) I know that anything can be used in any song. but could you?

@DaPlaya319 Yes you most definitely can put this in a death metal song. I do it in my band! look up on youtube the song Labyrinth by Aptera. You will definitely hear the part where I arpegiate the chords of the song on bass

Nice band :]
I heard the arpegiated notes in it.
Im jus needing sum practice WHEN to do it lol.
Bands like Necrophagist, The Faceless and many others do it but i just dont know when to put them in their :p
I love technical Death metal but i need to learn abit more on makin my own stuff too lol.

Im ina band but i wana learn how to be a bit more “technical”

McTacoKingHutJr can you please give me the tabs to the shapes
