Red Hot Chili Peppers - Otherside (Bass Cover) (Play Along Tabs In Video)

Tips And Comments:

- Playing Technique:

Played on the bridge pickup with fingers. Middle high strength for every part except for the bridge wich is played with lots of energy. Played with just neck pickup

- Gear Sound:

Added mid high frequencies and some treble. Most of the tone is in the finger and the bass. New strings help also. In this video i don't have new strings.

- About The Song:

Verses need accuracy in the slide parts, be careful with getting the right note. I took an isolated bass track for transcribing, so i think most parts are right. Maybe some notes can be played in other parts of the fretboard. I watched some live videos to get some positions right. I missed a note at the end, actually played an A instead of E. It's a passing note so no big deal. I fyou follow the tab you'll notice

Need more tips? Just comment!

*All the tabs in this channel are created by me, if you have any advice in the transcription feel free to comment!

Me resulta muy complicado tocar canciones de RHCP aún, pero esta me sale decente, la aprendí contigo y sólo cuando la toco con tu vídeo de fondo me sale bien y me gusta entro completamente en la canción y es increíble, gracias 🤍

I buyed bass 7-8 months ago cuz of you.. and the first song I wanted the learn on bass is otherside. and then I searched many covers, tabs on the internet.. and then I found you. now I play this song perfectly. thank you... you are my teacher now..

[pringelsthegamefreak]

I've always loved the slides during the verses on the bass. Gives the song more flavor to it. Along with the guitar riff

[pentacleofvenus]

Dude, I'm going back through some of this stuff, and it's super easy to play, but super fun to play. This is so much better than reading tabs separately and trying to play along with it, or using artificial sounding songsterr. I've had a very powerful evening just playing Californication, and this. Actually made me cry while playing, which is the first time that has ever happened. It's beautiful. Thank you for everything you do.

[Sykket]

YES! Thank you, I've been waiting for this one for ages :')

[williamhosford]

OMG Flea. Saw them on the CALIFORNICATION tour (`99/00). Not only does he rock, but he does it while jumping around!

[philipe]

Thank you! I’ve been trying to get the middle part but I also learned a couple of other steps too.

[matejsafranek]

Woow! You are the best bass player I have ever seen!!! FANTASTIC!

[danielpalmersofficial]

I’ve seen this amazing band live, this song and the bass line are fantastic!! 😀👍

[bestlaidplans]

Thanks for everything you do! It's like RHCP knew I'd pick up the bass in my middle age and said "let's make one he can play. Just one."

[arthub]

You're awesome man! People who can communicate in music are blessed.

[larrysanchez]

Thanks for taking the time to do this... got me right back into the RHCP. Its been a while since I played this - Perfect - Cool - Nice work.

[tomrg]

Playing random bass RNA’s first time I herd rhcp and they are amazing
