Unironically, the sponsor phase is phenomenal! Always makes me watch through ads even though I'm often not interested in the product itself, but rather your creative singing/playing 🤣🤣
The reference to Winston its just amazing, he's still dead from that time you hit that wrong note in classical 😭😭😭 He would be so proud of you now that you are such an amazing bassist that create such amazing solos like this
No matter where you are in your BASS journey, or what genre you play in, you ALWAYS need the open E haha. Just a constant for us players. Cheers and wonderful as always man!
Waitttttttttttt. Yall are saying E is the most powerful sound, which is right, so that means... RUSH E IS THE MOST POWERFUL SONG IN THE WORLD. K but actually, once I master slap and pick bass, I'll do a Rush E but SLAP cover.
@@CharlesBerthoud hey Charles, I'm a big fan since 2015 and I'm subscribe to you a way long time ago (not literally long time ago hehe😅😅) oh yeah anyways, since it's been a year and I never ask you a request a song that will make me hype everyday, can you make a bass music from devil may cry 5 called "BURY THE LIGHT" and that will be great to listen in a bass version, I'm sorry it's a long reply to you and sorry for my bad english... Thank You and You deserve another million subscribers ❤❤🎉🎉🔥🔥
When I got good enough to add fills and started trying to solo my band got mad because they said I “wasn’t playing the same song.” Anything other than following the guitar confused them too much.🤦♂️
You have to be one of the best Bass players I've ever seen. You need to be in some crazy great band and write songs that will make the whole world sing and last the test of time. Love the videos!!
@@sonclearbrahman-ar1461 Hahahaha... Remco the Funk master is the only other youtuber I listen to. All the others are in bands like Chris Squire from Yes. Paul McCartney, John Myung Dream Theater. John Paul Jones. I can go on and on... All great bass Players in great bands that wrote great songs. .. His songs and playing are awesome. He is technically better then all of them. He needs a great band. I would listen for sure...
I agree. Even Victor Wooten The Great played in a band, Bela Fleck and The Flecktones. A great bassist play(ed) in a great band! Here I add my bass heroes to the list (not necessarily a soloist, I think) : Flea, RHCP Les Claypool, Primus Tim Commerford, RATM Stuart Zender, Jamiroquai Joe Dart, Vulfpeck Chris Wolstenholme, Muse ...
My first phase is Steve Harris phase. I am a guitar player, and I bought a bass just to learn his lines because they are so cool. I play with a pick, so playing with fingers is an addictional challenge. Love it
I know it’s a joke but Your singing is actually really good. I love your videos Charles. You actually inspired me to start playing bass a couple years ago and first lesson is actually next week. I’ve been playing by ear and you have no idea how much you’ve help me out
Steve Di Giorgio got to phase 8, added fretless and created his own style. And to avoid phase 13 as he said, ‘play cool shit and people will want to hear cool shit.’ Hence why his bass is so forward on most albums he’s on.
Didn't work for Jason Newsted though, unfortunately. His playing on ...And Justice For All is bloody fantastic, but you need a remastered version to hear it.
An amazing Medley if you can call it that and I also have to mention of course that I am LIVING for the singing ads Charles another fantastic video mate well done!
You really have to give Beyond Creation a listen if you haven't yet, it's a prog metal band that the melody is focused on the Bass, the Bassist even plays with a six string fretless
It's good to hear this. It's something that sounds different from you rather than the typical funk-type stuff you play. I'd love to see more of that versatility.
Amazing video Charles 🙌🏻, I’m a metal bass player and I went to almost every phase you have showed in this video 😂, the only one I missed is the “Wearing your bass insanely low”; also I can do tapping but no way at your level, you’re such a master and I’m inspired to improve by practicing Thanks 🙏🏼 for show how cool the bass can be when you really master your instrument, greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽

Do a FUNKY bass cover of Nine Inch Nails' "Sanctified"!🤘
1:48 Lars Ulrich and the album ...And justice for all
Steve Harris doesn't play an alternating canter, he only accentuates with the index
*never forget winston*
0:22 Rob's phase
0:28 Jasons phase
0:32 Cliff live phase
1:45 Lars’s phase
@@helpimadog-otherstuff8377 yessss haha
Hahahah
Where's Webster's phase? )
0:38 is jason's permanent phase
The Cliff phase gave me chills, makes you wonder what he would've achieved down the line
10 out of 10 in musicality, bass skills, comedy, creativity (and singing). You are incredible, Charles! (Poor Winston... R.I.P.)
only real ogs will understand the last part
Shout out to Cliff! But The Most Annoying Phase as an audio engineer really got me! 🤣 I always give the bass love!
Definitely Lars during...and Justice for All
He should have called it the Lars Phase
The Cliff burton phase is always be the best phase
Exemplified by the fact Charles only needed to call it the Cliff phase and no one will ever think "Cliff who?"
Amen to that
So for all of us stuck in Phase 8 (by choice), does that mean we're Cliffhanging?
I can't believe he was ever THAT good... I have much research to do now.
It seemed to last the longest 😂
Shocked by the Lead singer phase. Amazing
There isn't a metal bassist in the world without a Cliff phase😊
Me
Me when I was 16 and thought I was so cool playing bass through a line 6 spider amp with a phaser and distortion 😂
@@MrE51917 I play with distortion on bass because of Necrobutcher from Mayhem
I notice it's also the longest phase in the video...
Yes there is. Check billy sheehan
Steve Harris phase! Such a unique and instantly recognizable style. Up The Irons! 🤘
Iron maden rulez\m/
Unironically, the sponsor phase is phenomenal! Always makes me watch through ads even though I'm often not interested in the product itself, but rather your creative singing/playing 🤣🤣
Salty Cracker and Charles, the only dudes to advertise without making me suicidal 👏😅
Epiccc play bro
I'm in the "Open E Phase" now...been playing for years lol.
The reference to Winston its just amazing, he's still dead from that time you hit that wrong note in classical 😭😭😭
He would be so proud of you now that you are such an amazing bassist that create such amazing solos like this
Ha! Are there wrong notes in jazz? Maybe classical? ;-) still, poor Winston
You mean hes still dead from that time you hit that wrong note in CLASSICAL
@@Terr0r8273 you're absolutely right I didn't even realized until now
The singing was actually surprisingly pretty good 🤣
Sound like he could be in a Disney animated film 🤣
But... could it resurrect Winston?
You sound like you were doubting him...never again...
@@trebmaster 🤣
Good melody too!
I started with the Steve Harris phase. He’s the reason why I started playing bass.
i started and im still here. 10 years
legend
Idem here
Yes. 🤘
I recently got into Metal, found Iron Maiden, and now Steve and Cliff are my idols.
No matter where you are in your BASS journey, or what genre you play in, you ALWAYS need the open E haha. Just a constant for us players. Cheers and wonderful as always man!
Haha yes, the most powerful sound in the world 🔥
@@CharlesBerthoud Absolutely!
@@CharlesBerthoud I think there's only one more powerful sound: tuning that string to D
@@stefanopani2848even better, tuning it down to B or C#
Waitttttttttttt. Yall are saying E is the most powerful sound, which is right, so that means... RUSH E IS THE MOST POWERFUL SONG IN THE WORLD. K but actually, once I master slap and pick bass, I'll do a Rush E but SLAP cover.
You make the hardest stuff look so simple, fantastic musician!
Charles never fails to amaze, educate and entertain me.
Thanks again for this lil gem brother 🤘🏾🔥❤
You're welcome, thanks for watching!!

Playing bass with a bow actually sounds heavenly...
Loved the harmony!
When I got good enough to add fills and started trying to solo my band got mad because they said I “wasn’t playing the same song.” Anything other than following the guitar confused them too much.🤦♂️
The Prog and Djent Parts are my favorites!
I've always wanted to hear you playing some tech death metal stuff like Beyond Creation, Obsucra, etc.
Like if you never left the Cliff Burton phase.
I'm Cliff's age (if he were still with us)
He'd be proud there is a Cliff phase.
He co write orion. All I'm saying!!!
@@nick_coles_art He wrote Orion all of it. The baseline he plays was supposed to be Kirk's lead guitar line
Please, no more likes.
Damn, I need a full song from the Djent phase. That groove was fire...
Only made it to pick phase back in the day but now I'm motivated to go for Cliff Burton
Everybody: "Ads are boring and annoying!"
Charles: "Hold my Bass!"
Great! Love the sound. Your original stuff is always the best!
As always thanks Charles for the stellar bass work and great humor... especially loved the Cliff phase 🤘
This is so spot on. Your one of the most entertaining UA-cam performers out there. Thanks.
HE BROUGHT BACK WINSTON!!!!
F for Winston, remembered the day when I met him... such a nice and humble guy.
You have to be one of the best Bass players I've ever seen. You need to be in some crazy great band and write songs that will make the whole world sing and last the test of time. Love the videos!!
Who are the others?
@@sonclearbrahman-ar1461 Hahahaha... Remco the Funk master is the only other youtuber I listen to. All the others are in bands like Chris Squire from Yes. Paul McCartney, John Myung Dream Theater. John Paul Jones. I can go on and on... All great bass Players in great bands that wrote great songs. .. His songs and playing are awesome. He is technically better then all of them. He needs a great band. I would listen for sure...
@@GH51505150 Thankyou! John Paul Jones's instrumental, many-stringed bass, solo album is certainly a contender!
I agree. Even Victor Wooten The Great played in a band, Bela Fleck and The Flecktones.
A great bassist play(ed) in a great band!
Here I add my bass heroes to the list (not necessarily a soloist, I think) :
Flea, RHCP
Les Claypool, Primus
Tim Commerford, RATM
Stuart Zender, Jamiroquai
Joe Dart, Vulfpeck
Chris Wolstenholme, Muse
...
@@koetjingoranje4241 Charles IS the band!
I'm sad for any bassist who experiences "... And justice for all" phase.
there is also the very ambitious, yet elusive, fretless phase
Love the reference to and justice for all cutting out all the bass ... lol
i'm currently spanning phases 3, 4, 6, 7 (i alternate between pick and finger and slap), 8 and 12 haha
Rock on!!
Damn! That transition into the promo part was clean!
1:46 i called "13. The most annoying phase" is "And Justice For All phase"
1:25 Myung phrase!
1:48 ...And Justice For Jason
0:22 Robert Trujillo be like
You are one of the most talented and funniest posters of UA-cam! Love your content.
1:56 is where the singing part starts.
14. Lead singer phase
*Laughs in Hansi Kürsch*
1:46 and justice for all be like
My first phase is Steve Harris phase. I am a guitar player, and I bought a bass just to learn his lines because they are so cool. I play with a pick, so playing with fingers is an addictional challenge. Love it
Same, I'm a guitar player too and bought a bass just to learn to play Steve and Cliff's stuff😅
Only the OGs remember Winston
The head banging phase is also known as the jason newsted phase
Do this for jazz bassists please!
Ok, this was the best middle-of-the-video ad on UA-cam.
I know it’s a joke but Your singing is actually really good. I love your videos Charles. You actually inspired me to start playing bass a couple years ago and first lesson is actually next week. I’ve been playing by ear and you have no idea how much you’ve help me out
Thanks and congrats on starting bass!!! Have fun 🔥
Great ad read man!
Im a drummer and I miss Cliff Burton soooo bad ❤
Growing up as a Metal Head this is probably my favorite solo of yours.
Steve Di Giorgio got to phase 8, added fretless and created his own style.
And to avoid phase 13 as he said, ‘play cool shit and people will want to hear cool shit.’ Hence why his bass is so forward on most albums he’s on.
Didn't work for Jason Newsted though, unfortunately. His playing on ...And Justice For All is bloody fantastic, but you need a remastered version to hear it.
He did reach a somewhat proggy phase tho
Phase 0: Learning to play the fucking instrument first
The Visual Kei and Technical Death phase were missing, but still, it was great!
I'll never not be in the Cliff phase
You forgot the legendary phase, The Charles Berthoud phase! Also your singing is very beautiful.
I thought the Tapping phase was the same as this.
I don't think Charles will ever be a phase. He's here to stay!!
@@sonclearbrahman-ar1461 indeed!
Love how you managed to make the cliff phase part actually sound like an early metallica song lol
Missing the brutal death metal bassist who uses all the techniques at once
BEST Ad read EVER! Love the "teacher" behind you in the outro too!!
AMAZING WORK CHARLES!!!
God Bless you ALL!
The best bassist on the internet (in my honest opinion). I hope the other dude doesn't "slap" me. Hahahaha
Hi Charles, could you do hardest Song with Jamiroquai? That would be insane… Thanks for the Uploads
actually amazing like if cosmic girl would be the hardest song ever!
@@pengu698 or emergency on planet earth
CHARLES! This is simply amazing. Thank you.
Good job on the singing. made we want to listen to the entire add for sure. You earned it.
Caramba, você toca assustadoramente demais.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
The ad plug in the lead vocalist section 😂😂😂
Did you forget the Ryan Martinie Phase
An amazing Medley if you can call it that and I also have to mention of course that I am LIVING for the singing ads Charles another fantastic video mate well done!
1:00 Meredith Palmer Phase
Stage 13: the
"...and justice for all" phase
And then they reach full maturity and switch to fusion jazz.
0:45 Cliff Burton phase
Great stuff as always, but it's missing the multiscale fretless tech death phase hahaha
Ironically I just watched it after watching Sun Knudsen video about why he doesn't recommend using VPN, lol.
1. I love that the glasses went on for the Djent phase
2. Best advert I've seen on a UA-cam channel haha
You really have to give Beyond Creation a listen if you haven't yet, it's a prog metal band that the melody is focused on the Bass, the Bassist even plays with a six string fretless
Love the Orion-Tribute🥰
YOU MUST COLLABORATE WITH EL ESTEPARIO SIBERIANO!
You tricked me onto the greatest nordvpn sleeper ad ever 😂
I didn't even know it was a sponsor mention until about a third of the way in.
I love how he wore the glasses to look like Steve Terreberry in the djent phase 😅👌
i am starting to wonder who makes best adds on yt: charles or pewds... that was amazing one
You just HAD to remind us about Winston
Anyone can tell you are an absolutely astonishing bassist, but I also appreciate your sense of humor! The wigs, the facial expressions. Gifted.
the cliff phase earned my follow. well done and thanks for the nod to one of the bass greats.
Ha, love the roll into the ad! As usual great stuff inspiration for all at every phase of musician.
Hitting us with the "Two Bloody fingers" gallops with the Steve Harris part. Love it!
You always manage to put a smile on my already happy life. Wow, I love these videos, well done Charles!
1:50 The "And justice for all" phase
Cliff phase ❤
an Evolution of metal bassist without a Steve Di Giorgio phase is not valid!
Yeah the famous «and justice for all » phase…
The tapping that you did is insanely impressive ;) huge respect
0:54 Anesthesia sounds cool like that!
When I got to the "taping" phase, it involved a keg of beer. Probably why I haven't gotten by the Steve Harris phase.🤘🤣
1:57 best phase hilarious
Dude, I love how the Cliff Burton phase uses different bass lines of his with interesting fills between.
I think I go through all those phases at every show :) Great stuff as always
You nailed the ad and made it watchable, that was maybe the most impressive thing about this video
It's good to hear this. It's something that sounds different from you rather than the typical funk-type stuff you play. I'd love to see more of that versatility.
Amazing video Charles 🙌🏻, I’m a metal bass player and I went to almost every phase you have showed in this video 😂, the only one I missed is the “Wearing your bass insanely low”; also I can do tapping but no way at your level, you’re such a master and I’m inspired to improve by practicing
Thanks 🙏🏼 for show how cool the bass can be when you really master your instrument, greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽
Rest in peace, Winston. You will be missed 🙏
