Sublime - Santeria (Bass Cover) (Play Along Tabs In Video)

Tips And Comments:

- Playing Technique:

Played between pickups with middle strength. SWING FEEL FOR 16THS!! Played with just neck pickup sound

- Gear Sound:

Added some bass, cut a little treble just to not get some extra buzz. Some mid with caution of not adding much muddiness.

- About The Song:

Nice song to plractice many tecnhiques. Kind of an advanced line also, so it needs some practice, specially for the swing feel fast notes. I confess some rythmic parts were not spot on, but also weren't in the original line. Used an isolated bass for transcription and live versions for positions.

Need more tips? Just comment!

Everytime I see your name when searching a song brings a smile to my face

Yes, a bit overwhelming at first for sure. I had to learn this song for a fast approaching gig and this video was a lifesaver. I broke it down into 3 parts (intro, verse, chorus). From this video I took the basic structure of each part and simplified it. That got me through the gig....and no one even noticed the stuff I left out. Since then I've returned to this clip every few days and learned a little more of the passing notes and I'm happy to say I can *almost* play the whole song correctly. Take small bites and don't give up!

the bass is so beautiful in this song is unbelievable

[whitenoise]

I'd just like to say that every single bassist is underrated.

that little 79 - 79 Hammer on is so damn beautiful, it makes the whole bassline so much better

Playing with you on .5 speed made me realize just how on beat you are, seriously you are the best Youtuber i have ever seen thanks for the help!

[bryanfigueroa]

Eric Wilson is such an underrated bassist

[pentacleofvenus]

I never noticed how awesome the bassline in this song is...dude, you are so awesome. I love sublime.. I am so grateful for the work that you put into all of this.

[JamesJones-wdor]

Just played this song at my first live gig, I wouldn't know half the stuff I know without you man, much appreciated!!!

[markconiglio]

this is why i love your channel. as a advanced muscian i can just look up and you play at regular speed. not step by step. the band says lets play santeria. i dont have to go through crap. just see how its played with the flowing tabs.

I'm not a huge fan of Sublime, but goddamn their basslines are awesome

[kevinthompson]

I think I've watched five or six of your videos now and finally broke down and became a patron. Thanks for all these videos, it's been really helpful for me.

[ottoclave]

You are unbelievably talented! I dream of playing bass like that one day.

[pringelsthegamefreak]

This is such an awesome as hell bass line, you would've never know how intricate it was but it's very groovy and complex.

[willskrz]

man, this really slapped me in the face. love this song so much but i never listened to the bassline. buzzed that i can finally learn this!

[khbgkh]

Really really excellent work. I was able to learn this song on piano quickly because of how on point this was, and the bass line seems to be exactly to the track. The only issue I had was that the D#m chords are actually B/D#. Again, great content

[anthonyglaser]

I use CoverSoultions from time to time as a sort of quick crutch when I don't have time to work out all the parts on my own. And I just want to say thanks for putting the tabs and chords up on the top of the of the video where they don't get covered by that little red line and all the control icons.

[olmosbananas]

I'm trying to learn this song... I'm getting the basic of it down, the hard part is remembering the slight differences in some measures and which one to use when.
Thanks for the video, appreciate it!

[cleangoblin]

A friend basically challenged me to learn the song on bass.
I like it. Its not boring

[noctilucent]

wow the bass line is a lot more involved than i wouldve thought, pretty cool!
