I'm convinced that you can play slap on just about any instrument and make it sound amazing. We need to hear slap banjo or slap dulcimer next.

Slap trumpet could be interesting...

@jordanhasch2544 Год назад

One thing I've noticed is that, no matter how busy and technical your playing gets, it's always cleanly-executed and highly, HIGHLY melodic. I know you're a bassist almost full-time, but I for one would LOVE to see you have a slap guitar/slap bass/piano trio video. That'd be...amazing.

@iancrone2906 Год назад

Just a normal piano? May as well go for a slap piano...

@RichMcLaughlin Год назад

Not even full-time guitarists have the guts to post videos with this clean of a tone, well done sir!

@Arcticun Год назад

It's likely cleaned up a bit in post, but it's still a great tone and he's remarkably talented.

@aaizner847 Год назад

Lots of shredders are doing that these days. Clean guitar tone is the new "thing" in prog/instrumetal. Ibanez even put out a Tim Henson signature nylon string acoustic-electric guitar. Where have you been? :)

@arkaacharjee11 Год назад

Apart from technical abilities, what makes Charles more alluring is his melodic approach. What a musician!

@TheDiamondBladeHD Год назад

The exact reason why i also love ichika compared to a lot of other modern guitarists. Tim henson and generally polyphia have ridiculous technique, but their songs are not easy to listen to because of their techniques. Ichikas music is very soothing, complicated, yet very easy to follow

@ralphM1114 Год назад

If you made me listen to this for the first time with my eyes closed, I could've sworn it was Ichika. A bassist playing the guitar on this level this nonchalantly is mind-blowing.

@nunolance23 Год назад

Exactly, very Ichika like!! Beautiful stuff

@Xirrious Год назад

I thought the same

@TheDiamondBladeHD Год назад

There's something with playing piano as the first instrument. Both ichika and charles did that. And both actually started out on bass. Ichika started playing guitar when he was 15 i think while charles stayed with bass

@zackglickert4495 Год назад

you’re right it is very ichika-esque

@lionelcrawford4562 Год назад

To pluck on a bass with as much umph as you do and then go pluck so delicately on a guitar is the real kicker here. The control the fella has.

Practice learning plenty of songs from different genres and also keep an eye on how certain musicians play their instruments, you might find a technique that works right for you.

@whophead6837 Год назад

Ide say he's listen to a life time of different music with his ears and practice. Some people listen to music differently than other people, and his brain has absorbed a little bit of everything I imagine.

@aesop2733 Год назад

Too few? He's basically a new channel still. He's had a ton of growth and he's at the point where he has so many subs that it's nearly impossible for him not to branch out away from RU-vid in some form or another. That's the way it should be. It's easy to forget how big those numbers are when you see bigger numbers all the time but 1.5 million is a lot. Even 100,000.. concert tickets, merch, physical and digital album sales. That could be millions and millions of dollars 👍 I hope he's so successful he never has to show his face on RU-vid again. He's that good
