"BETCHA CAN'T PLAY THIS"..Bass Edition?

Sign in to disble this ad
I'd LOVE to see a version of BETCHA CAN'T PLAY THIS..
for BASS...
for those of u who aren't familiar with it..
here is the guitar edition:
http://www.talkbass.com/forum/newthr...newthread&f=21

It's a collection of shedders showing off their "impossible licks" on you tube..
They play it at full speed a couple of times,, then slowly..so u can figure it out and cop the lick..

I'm anything BUT a shredder, but I'd appreciate seeing some basic slap licks,tasty jazz runs,tapping,anything cool,beautiful and steal-worthy !
and I LOVE copping stuff like "Teen Town",or slap licks,
off You Tube,or rewinding a Billy Sheehan run a zillion times..
..but if they were organized in one place,THAT would rule.
anyone care to record something,upload it to YouTube and place the link here? I'd personally appreciate anything my TB comrades could donate!..thanx.

Bass players are too mature and too wise to do such a trick, IMO.

yeah,right? in a way, I totally understand that statement,
we're the ones in the background making the frontman look good,
but we rarely fish for compliments or show off like that,true.

..after typing that last sentence, an image of Billy Sheehan with both hands violently diddling the fingerboard flashed in front of my eyes,ok..SOME of us do like the flash..
