Slipknot - Before I Forget (Bass Cover) (Play Along Tabs In Video)

Tips And Comments:

- Playing Technique:

Played with a pick next to the bridge pickup with high strength. All pickup volume knobs at full

- Gear Sound:

Added lots of low end and high mid frequencies. A little fuzz also

- About The Song:

Hard to hear line. I picked up an isolated line so i think the transcription is correct. ost of the parts go with the guitars. Precision is important with 16ths

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!

*Gear: Taurus t-24 Washburn 4 String Bass (D'addario .045 Standard Strings)/ Ibanez SA 120 Guitar/ Alesis Dm6 Drums - ESI Ugm-96 Interface - PC (Digital Processing)

Dang.. Slipknot basslines are absolutely sick. But I wouldn't know that because they put them so bloody low in the mix, you can hardly hear it. A shame it is.

The official tuning is:
B
Whatever
Whatever

At the start: this isn't so bad, I could probably learn this easy
Me 10 seconds in: oh right this is Paul Gray, the one string god

[t-rizzy]

Guitar hero introduced me to this song, which introduced me into heavy metal and I am grateful for that

[matty-qinf]

r.i.p paul i know it was a while ago but he is the reason why i am starting to learn bass guitar

[joshwd]

Does Paul Gray know there are 3 other strings? Right?

I've watched alot of tutorials on playing bass and you by far are the best. Thank you. Keep on making your videos. I need to keep learning new songs. I pause the video a lot and I write down each line of music and I practice little by little. Its takes a while but it works really well.

[wottonish]

Very good my man, although people complain about tone I think it makes it so much easier to hear and therefore figure out the bass line. Thanks for your vids they are really helpful xxx

When you turn the bass all the way up in your car

[gammainc]

Do you think you could do The Shape from Slipknot? I've been dying to see that bass groove for months so I can learn it better.

[kzdcs]

That bridge.... one of the best I've ever heard

This channel has the best bass covers in Youtube.

[blahblahsen]

hell yes...finally a cover by this guy that i can play along with and not feel like a noob again!! i gave a few days to Dig and well...not real promising. even the RHCP covers always have one super hard spot...and now i have found it...a song i can play without killing myself in repetitive frustration. thank you slipknot fans, thank you for suggesting a beginner level song that is still catchy enough to make it to the recording section. i feel like a bassist again...not a great one, but still. nailed it.

[OsseusChicago]

Finally!! I've been waiting for you to do it this got so long. I could never find the correct tab for the bridge but this will help me so much. Thanks again dude, keep it up!

[DoomerNavajo]

Definitely my favorite song when it comes to the bass

Excellent cover as always, but I have a question: Is not dangerous for your instument if you tuned it in differents tonalities so often??? Regards from another Youtube musician !!! (i m starting...)

[Jakevrana]

Man this bass line is sick!!! Raunchy, gnarly, throat any other demented quotes I could throw in.... nice

[kidsalex]

put it in the background to listen to, and i forgot it was a cover! good job! :D
