Great job! I like the pick, gives it a very punky sound and helps w the quicker up strokes. Let’s blow the lid of worship! Make our ceilings of yesterday our floors of tomorrow. 🧡
This explains it! You’re right, it’s not all 16th notes like I’ve been trying to play it and I just couldn’t get it to sound like the song. Made me question my ability to really play 16th notes which bugged the crap out of me. Turns out It’s actually mostly 8th notes with some regular 16th notes sprinkled in. Thanks.
WOW, I really like the way you play that. We've played this song in worship service hundreds of times, but I've never thought to play it like that! I don't use a pic so I'll try the eighth notes finger picking for now, but I'm definitely going to start practicing more with a pic and see what I can do! Thanks for the great video!
It is SO hard to find playable bass covers of gospel and worship songs, when you are a beginner. THANK you for this, I’m learning this as my first worship song. I was wondering if you might be including the bass clef notes as well as the tab, to help us new bassists progress as musicians, any time soon. If not, I understand. Gave you a like and a subcribe
I want to apologize…I found some staff lines, and penciled in the correct notes myself! It’s on me to learn the notes, not anyone else. Thank you again.
No need to apologize! I would love to include the notes, but the majority of bassists use tabs. The time to add notes to the videos would decrease my video output. One solution would be to download the tab, and then use MuseScore to convert the tab to notes. There are some tutorials for that process online.
Played this song so many times on bass live. Love your version. I tried 8th notes and then 16th notes were quite hard to do finger picking. So I stuck with 8th. Gotta grab a pick next time lol
this is cool !! i originally play guitar but i switched to bass just for fun and it is !! although my fingers would always be full of blisters and stuff cus the bass is big, heavy and i have to adjust since i am left handed (i can't use left handed guitars or anything so i play the opposite way) i am now trying to learn bass properly because my godfather is a drummer so we're like partners, i can't most of the time since i am very busy in school, i want to keep my with honors and all 91+ grades
How do you know for sure what the bass is playing on the recording? Listen real closely? Or were you able to isolate the bass line? Just curious. Thanks.
Thanks for the feedback! In this case, this is how the original bass line is played in the recording. I typically try to play the bass parts 1:1 as the original, however depending on the setting I’m sure finger style would sound great too!
