This is something I did yesterday, it is five tracks of live bass recorded on my computer, the only effects were compression, reverb and delay.

For the actual recording I used a MIM J bass with EMG and a Badass2 Bridge, but for the video I thought a Steinberger suited the song better.

I would love some constructive criticism. I already know I played it much slower than the original. This is the updated video, I added more split screens to show all parts at once.

I just realized the title of the song is actually "Closer" oh well.

Thanks man, I am still working on getting that riff together, it's a bit wobbly.

I made the video a little better, showing all parts at once, I'd love some real feedback!

Not to bitch, but I went on like 20 other people's posts and gave some constructive criticism because I wanted people to do the same for me, I feel like this is interesting enough to at least get negative feedback, but maybe I'm wrong? If it is boring, I'll take the critique, but gimme something!

Wow, this is pretty awesome!

Only thing I'd say is the chorus isn't as in your face as it could be, unless thats the vibe your going for. If you used a little fuzz for that or something?

Overall, good stuff!

Thanks for watching, I know exactly what you mean, I was trying to kind of keep the effect to a minimum. I suppose I could always add them later, but for now, I was trying to keep it to as realistically performable with a bass and an amp as possible. You are right though, good observation.
