My all time favorite metal song from my all time favorite metal album, and one of the reasons for that is Steve's galloping bass line. I always thought of it as "growling". This was the song when I was 13 listening to it in headphones that I really had my first musical "awakening" and it's been a big deal to me ever since. Thanks for putting a spotlight on that bass line!
you can hear the compression and solid state very, very clearly on the song revelations on piece of mind album. great channel name btw. bless Uncle Frank ;)
@sheikyerbouti3082 I wouldn't spend 1.4k on the white one. The blue I'd be interested in for hopefully lower but they don't make it anymore. The white one is over 10 pounds man.
hello. can u tell me how u deal with clank? steve clank is very different than mine. mine is loud and steves clank is barely noticeable by sound but u can hear it a little
Hi do you mean the clank in generall? Because there is nearly no clank on piece of mind. On later albums he had a huge amount of clank, but there he used another amp, where he cranked the highs with the eq and also used the aphex exciter. You can see the EQ settings in the rig-down-video of the last tour.
This is interesting! I just discovered your channel and subscribed. Just saying, but it would be fantastic if you can show how this could be, more or less, approached using plugins in a DAW, will help people like me who doesn't have the gear but want to simulate the sound.
@@sheikyerbouti3082 im a little stupid. What do u mean no eq? Thought that eq is in amp. I have tech 21 preamp and i put IT into my Amp. Is there another way ?
and he keeps his right arm elbow as straight as possible, which increases finger speed because he doesn't have to bend his fingers. The guitar should remain below waist level as much as possible.

Thank you!

Yes, and also on to tame a land
Great detail and playing
Very interesting video.
Thank you!
Greetings from Italy!
You nailed it! Very interesting about the light attack. Steve has magic hands!
Very Cool Video, Always thought Steve used a tube Amp. Good job on the playing!
Hi on most albums he used the custom made Hiwatt-clone. A tube Amp. But not on piece of mind.
Yah!!!! The Steve Harris Fender Precision in blue!!!! I got the white one!!!!
Yes, it was the first series back in 2000!

@@noah2418im wanting to say the body is between 12-16 pounds. Crazy
Hey Andi, Zufall dich hier zu treffen, kann mich noch an unsere gemeinsame Zeit im deutschen Maiden Forum erinnern :)
Hi, liebe Grüße zurück.
Most players miss the staccato. I used to own the Peavy Mk III and I never got it to sound anything like Harris's tone LOL
My friend are you play gallop with three fingers only?
@@grigorisntamaras6709 yes.

Thank you

Great video.. what roundwounds are you using?
Rotosound 0.50 - 110
Really great video! Donyou think tou could recreate my favorite Harris bass tone of the Killers album? That for me is bass heaven!
i really would like to, but i don´t have enough information on Steves setup on this album.
what about mids? highs and lows?
Hi no eq used. The eq of the Amp was also flat.
@@sheikyerbouti3082 im a little stupid. What do u mean no eq? Thought that eq is in amp. I have tech 21 preamp and i put IT into my Amp. Is there another way ?
@@jedrusnowak3317 Hi, yes the amp has its own EQ, but i didn´t use it. All knobs were in neutral, middle Position.
@@sheikyerbouti3082 so what made your sound like that? preamp?
@@jedrusnowak3317 Everything i described in the video!
