True. The quiet genius in the corner. Despite his fame I think he is massively underrated as a CRAFTER of bass lines. This has it all, timing, syncopation, melody and bang in the pocket. Great Cover btw.
This is one of my very favourite Queen songs so I have to learn it. It’s been quite challenging but fun. Thank you for the accurate tabs Lefty Bassman.
Amazing! When the bass line is brought forward, in my opinion, it’s a work of art. I have always been fascinated by the bass...so, I ask myself, why did I not learn to play? Is there still time...I,m 64! I have also listened to the bass line to Millionaire,s Waltz. Well worth checking out .
Good job! But it's not 100% accurate note-wise, just almost. Based on the isolated bass track, 1:16 it's supposed to be a chromatic run -3-4-5- on the G-string and 1:19 -4-3-4-3- on the D-string (so not walking down to Eb).
That Ab Major decent actually is correct at 1:16. It's the most iconic bass part of the song, in my option at least. He nailed it. This cover is essentially 100% accurate with a touch of personal flourish!
@@brady1201 I am hearing exactly what I described when slowing down the speed of both the isolated bass track and the full song. I don't know what to tell you, but in the end this is just semantics.
@@kennet7837 Maybe we are just confused on different parts. I have perfect pitch as well so I know notes I hear. In regards to the scale I described, the Ab Major decent IS a descending Ab Major scale Up until the Note C. Then it goes down a Major 3rd, Skipping the major 2nd of the scale which would be Bb, back to the root, the bottom Ab. it would be: (D String), 6,4,3 (A String), 6,4,3, and then 4 on the E. play this on your bass if you're skeptical. It's just a simple descending major scale. That fret pattern is the fret pattern to play any major scale on any string instrument tuned to perfect fourths. again maybe we are talking about different parts, I don't know man.
I have been following ya for several months now, from France, and I still am impressed by the perfect way you nplay John Deacon (that I love). I do not know if it is possible to ask you to play one bass line in particular : so I do it... I am fan of a bassist named Roger Innis and his work on "Got no place to go" for Laurence Jones (englis rock blues player). I would be delighted if one day you will do a cover of this song. Thnaks again for your videos, always great.

... and that's why I remained a fan of John and Fred. They worked so very well together. Please let me put something here: I know about the contribution of BM & RT and I appreciate it. But over the last years I lost my interest in them, especially, when I grew as a musician myself. it turned out that they were mostly posers. I mean May was a creative guitarist. He came up with some of the finest melodies in Rock, besides Dave Gilmour. Taylor was a mid-class drummer with an exorbitant good voice. But Queen died with Fred and the loyal JD knew that from the beginning. Every song of the three band members went through Freds feather before they were recorded, as he was Queen's arranger because of his musicianship. The Cosmos rocks is an awkward album! Where all the good songs? Why don't they come up with new stuff? Because there is no Fred to put their song ideas into shape! At the tribute concert one must look at the gestures Taylor and May make towards John, when he says: but first of all "The Show Must Go On". Everyone got that wrong! He said that towards May and Taylor because they already decided to go on without Fred. But that wasn't John Deacon's idea of a good time. John Deacon ... what a LEGEND! I listen to Queen since the mid 70's. I think I can say, I am an old school fan.
i sat down with my bass and this video, and concluded that i could, in fact, never learn this 😂 very nice cover, i love the colourful strings! also the instrument is beautiful, i wish i had a better bass too 😂😂😂
@@oruletesfahejiz glad you found it easy... but, honestly, i have no idea why you felt compelled to share this 💀 i managed too eventually, it wasn't too bad.
hi, im asking for your permission if i can use this video as background music in a video im posting on my facebook account.. im also covering the bass of this song but can i use your video as the background music? if its not ok im not gonna use it.
In someof their concerts that looks like John h banging on his guitar sometimes is he really playing or is he just banging on the strings ? Is that how they played really fast
For the video in Montreal he was actually slapping the string to play the G#, and for the video in Hammersmith I’m pretty sure he’s just banging the bass
there is somethings wrong about this cover,tab, bpm.... i wrote this tabs to guitar pro 7 without no error with bpm 110...original song got slower i mean tabs are a little bit faster. but in your playing there is no pbm issue. i couldnt figure it out..is it song version or tab? if song is definetly 110 pbm it means these tabs are not right, on the other hand there is nothing wrong about your timing in this video... im really confused.

Man, Deacon basslines never cease to surprise me. Well done, sir
Thank you!
That quiet man always had an incredible bassline in his pocket. It's melodic and fun to listen, thanks man for this amazing cover

Does anyone else find the sound of bass satisfying
I think thats why most of us hear probably play it

A pretty hard song for a beginner great job😁

Do it, grab a bass!
Millionaire's Waltz is a masterpiece!
Never too old Timothy I am 74 next week and still bass rocker at heart
So satisfying. Thank you for including sheet and tabs. Quite helpful to getting closer and understand.
“Interesting strings” I happen to love your strings and that was a hella good bass cover! Well done...❤️
I love your tone! So thick and smooth
Interesting strings!
Only for the color...
@@LeftyBassman 😁😁😁
Nice work you had done thank you wish your channel gets more views
Really feels like the bass controls the ebb and flow of this song. Never noticed that before.
Thanks for posting, I've learnt a lot from your video.
3:00 - I can actually play that part
Lol
I absolutely shred that part
I nailed it on the first try too!
Something to aspire too. I've only been play for three months, sooo...not here yet. John Was the MASTER!
Currently favourite Deacon's bassline. *Currently*.
thank you for lines for the bass

Čau Šimone 😂
Wow i love the strings😍
I really like your strings
Dude, this is awesome!
Thank you so much!
Great. Thank you for tab

@@brady1201 I was talking about the last 3 sixteenth-notes in bar 24 being a chromatic run instead. Sounds like you are talking about bar 25.

great transcription! It turns easier to see how fantastic some Deacon´s bass lines was!
Really good job! Congrats!
Perfect!!! Helps me a lot!!!! The making off was also good!!! 😂😂😂
awesome, mate!
Thank you Neto!

Maestro

John is a master
It’s a bass lol 😂
Jk bass is technically a guitar lol
For the video in Montreal he was actually slapping the string to play the G#, and for the video in Hammersmith I’m pretty sure he’s just banging the bass
Is think the lower line for the tab is meant for the lowest string on the bass
Yes
what's the name of this bass? also, love the strings!!
It’s a fender jazz bass with DR strings
2:18😭😍🤩
Great you've got the sound ! Can toi give me your tempo please ?
It’s in 12/8 , download tabs from my Patreon page!
I’ve wanted to learn how to play the bass soon. Is it really hard to learn? I’m excited to start learning
Every instrument is relatively hard to learn, just don’t give up and practice a lot
Can anyone tell me what type of string are they?
DR strings
Ok thanks 😉
Hu enanos! :)
mannn john deacon is something else
i have that exact same bass guitar.

Where did you buy the strings? Could you give me the link? Thanks

Take in account that almost every Queen songs isn't at a steady BPM
@@LeftyBassman do you record you videos during playing or you record it first than record the video and mix them?
