Mike, you may feel the warmth of all these comments temporarily, but let me tell you that your tutorials will forever keep the flame of the beatles alive and the future generations that want to play their songs. And you will also be loved and appreciated forever. Thanks for everything.
Hi Mike.. I am soooo happy they found his lost cavern bass, in poor condition, and worth millions .. Paul must have had tears in his eyes when he was reunited with his revolutionary cavern bass..
Macca had those (John & George) who criticized his overbearing personality at times, yet he contributed bass and arrangements to their songs that transformed them. His bass playing is as good as his songwriting and singing. Paul was such a major factor in their success.
I can think of a few bass lines that are instantly recognizable to EVERY bassist… Another One Bites The Dust, Roundabout, Peter Gunn, Bernadette, and a few others. Come Together obviously makes the list, a the top! Thanks for sharing this lesson, great tune!
One of the greatest bass lines of all time that everyone learns when they start out, definitely one of my favourites and one of the first songs I used to test out my own Rickenbacker bass when I bought it back in the summer of 2020 and has been my main axe since. Definitely one of Paul’s absolute best bass parts, so damn good
Thanks again Mike. So much appreciated. This is one of Paul’s most easiest bass lines. However, you have un-covered some subtle nuances that I have even missed! Again, you rock! ❤
It's a simple and easy to bass line to play, but it's extremely effective. I can't imagine this song with a different bass part. The deadened, swampy tone, the little slide, everything about it, is brilliant.
Can't thank you enough Mr Mike. I discovered your channel yesterday with "The End" video, which was beyond awesome. It's great to see you keep uploading videos with the same contagious energy and enthusiasm over the years 🎉. Needless to say you have a new subscriber.
This is by far the most precise and complete dissection of this bass line! Amazing job Mike ! My only point is that, unless I hear it wrong, the little hammer-on that you make at the end of the third riff (8:08 on your video) start slightly too early if you compare with the way Paul plays it. But it could be me... For the rest, I stay completely impressed by the way you nailed all the aspects of his playing.
I'm Becoming a John Lennon impersonator ‚ but a few years ago ( still now sometime) i used to play bass and my höfner‚ i love the fact that you Explain bass parts too !!! Btw im learning a lot of John's parts on Guitar thank to you :) ❤
Gather all your back story's, slap in a book and you will have a great Coffee Table Book, Just sat for 2 hours today listening to your back stories on the Beatles recordings wonderful work Sir. DO you or know of anyone with recording knowledge of Gerry and the Pacemakers recordings or Billy J Kramer?
Hi Mike… have you ‘bunged’ a set of ‘Hofner-style’ short scale strings on the Rick. The silk windings passing the nut look very odd. Great vid, though. After years of playing it ‘wrong’, I’ve now gotta relearn it! 😢😢 Thanks… I think. 😬👍
Hi Mike. Quick question : what are the strings on your RB? Looks like it's short scale strings or ? (based on the black end on first fret or am I wrong?) which are these? btw, Thanks so much for doing the bass tutos. I've always missed that when you were doing your great guitar videos. Big fan of your work !
HELLO MIKE , GREAT SOUND . WHAT YOU BEEN DOING IN FRANCE ? JOHN FROM NORTH CAROLINA. I WAS IN NICE, WOW NICE PLACE, LOT OF TOPLESS LADIES ON THE BEACH .

Oh yeah, I heard about that. Definitely cool that he got reunited with it
Yeah! What are the chances😂😂

I liked without seeing! I have no doubts! 😊
Love that your moving on to the bass lessons! Thank you!

Ya DIG IT Mikey! One of the greatest bass lines ever!

Well done Mike! More genius Bass playing from Paul! So glad that they found his original Bass guitar which has to be worth millions! 🎸🎸👍👍
Such precision in this record. So important. Makes the song imo
Mike, your videos fill in a LOT of missing pieces in Beatles songs, keep up the awesome work!
Glad you like them!
That is amazing they really found it
Love all your tutorials. Thank you for taking the time and sharing your knowledge about The Beatles music. I hope you can upload more bass lessons!

I am not a bass player. But I always wanted to play that! It's FUN! Thank you!
Great job . I still sing and play bass to this song along with many other Beatles songs . That was a great in depth lesson .
Very cool, Mike. Makes me want to switch from 6 strings to 4. Very well played.
Thanks, Mike. The bass breakdowns are greatly appreciated!
Nicely done Mike……it’s a very tasteful piece of Bass playing.
Man, he lays a slinky groove. It just fits so well with just enough embellishments to make it more interesting as well.
Great lesson...✌️
Your videos are always packed with great info. Thank you for doing the bass videos now!
More to come!
What a brilliant riff! Thanks for breaking it down.

Paul was genius. So were John and George.
Great lesson thank you!😃
Back in the day, I played a Klira Twinstar viola bass, which I later traded in for a Gibson EB-2. You're very good on the bass.
Thanks again Mike. You are a time saver for me.
Glad to hear it

Hello, great tutorial. What strings do you use on your Rickenbacker?
Thanks - I'm not even sure what strings are on there. Whatever I had laying around whenever I changed them. Flatwounds tho'
And John had the nerve to be critical of George during the My Sweet Lord copyright litigation. What a pal.
Yesss more bass videos please
Thank you Mike. I’ve actually never been hearing the hammer on and playing the riff wrong. 😅
good good timing good good timing
Hii mike, could you please make a tutorial of "Im just happy to dance with you"
Nice! 2 bass lessons in a row. You forgot to give the recording details. Perhaps they aren't known.
❤
🖤❤️🧡🤩👍
