+Doktor Jekyll van Hyde to his mother he was johnny, to his father he was james. to himself he was jimi. would it be so horrible if he is something a little bit different to someone else? the man was a frigging chameleon. unfortunately his last trick was to turn blue, and leave those of us wondering what was next, to wonder what now.
Now, Bucket Head is phenomenal at what he can do with a guitar by all means. But he could bring such a diverse and unique sound to the bass if he ever decided to switch his principal instrument.
The funk is strong in this one...surprisingly strong for a predominantly metal guitarist... Is it weird to say that a guitarist is one of the best bassists in the world?
they didn't get that fame with their songs, they got it with their image and Disney backing them up. I definately know what you mean, dude. It should be Buckethead getting that kind of popularity (although I doubt he wants the attention).
lol his guitar in the background. i can imagine it thinking stuff like "thats right. you better enjoy yourself. after he's done playing with you, ima FUCK YO SHIT UP, so that NO ONE will EVER be able to play another note on your obese strings AGAIN!!!"
he plays utterly fast. makes me wonder if he doesn't have some condition that allows him to play that fast. I mean, well, it's hard to explain unless you play
@Nemofranciskovic Doesn't look like his body shape. More like buckethead himself, but they've toured and playd together so much so I think bucket has picked up a thing or two ;)

Surprising, no one mentions Victor Wooten. You can't have a discussion about great (living) bass players without mentioning him. In any case, no disrespect to buckethead intended, but his genius is the guitar, not the bass.
it has been confirmed that that was actually Les Claypool with buckethead's mask. dont you think it is a bit odd that there is only one video of BH playing bass, with the exeption of some crappy fake playing with a thumb extender?
Buckethead has some serious groove ^_^ , he's up there with some of the greater bassists of the musical community. Excellent solo. - Peace.
tabs? seriously question, the thing he does at 0:26 is a weird motion
I think he is barring the entire fret lmao
Sini Star i think he is doing some sort of hybrid fret baring
Barring with hammer-ons and muting is what it sounds like.
look at his fingers
God ain't got shit on buckethead.
0:34 "What was the name of this instrument again?"
Bais
B a s s
Lmaaooooo
RIP Davie504
What brand of toilet paper was this filmed with?
Good job at being illiterate. This was filmed nearly 10 years ago, bro.
This was a looooooong fucking time ago that I filmed this...on a flip phone.
Charmin Ultra Weak
I'm pretty sure this guy was joking haha 😂
you will not believe it. but that gadget had a mechanical keyboard and a 16 note polyphony
Holy fucking fuck! This is like when Jimmy Hendrix picked up as bass guitar and blew everyone's minds.
*JIMI hendrix ^^

humble rc hmm good point
80`s porn music =))))))))))))))))))))
McLaud666 on crack.
kfc buckets are boss
they are, but their difficult to find in my size. i prefer the jumbo popcorn buckets from the movie theatre, with butter of course.
Why you didn't record all of this still breaks my heart :(
true, they sound the same sometimes but claypool has his complete own style of playing bass and buckethead just plays whatever he wants.
Im 47, where was this guy in the 80's? I CANT GET ENOUGH OF HIM! all I can say is GREAT!
This right here is the definiton of a virtuoso.
Little do you all know this is a stringless bass.....when Buckethead moves his hands, magic sounds just appear.
Fuck, how does his hands and fingers move that fast
sick man, played that bass like a fucking boss :P
He's like a freaking machine!!
still the best bass solo ever
buckethead concerts are so fun you never know wat hes gonna do
Now, Bucket Head is phenomenal at what he can do with a guitar by all means. But he could bring such a diverse and unique sound to the bass if he ever decided to switch his principal instrument.
That's a BADASS bass solo!!!
This just re-affirms that BH is a god.
Holy crap this guy is legendary.
Dude, look at his huge freakin' hands! That's definately Buckethead!
I saw Buckethead in concert on Father's Day 2018.
BH never fails at awesome
damn, that dude can play everything.
awsome classic slap bass solo!
hes a class musician. no doubts about that
master of buckets
I had no idea he could kill the bass like that. WOW! :D
Gahhh that part at 0:24 is soooo awesome!
yep
any1 can play fast but doesnt mean its good
but buckethead puts the two together which makes him a great musician
this man is a legend
buckethead can play any intrument even the holophone from futurama that no one can play
Buckethead was actually going to be in RHCP, but I think he weirded them out. That, and they said he couldn't groove.
Why he's one of the best bassists i've ever seen..
The funk is strong in this one...surprisingly strong for a predominantly metal guitarist...
Is it weird to say that a guitarist is one of the best bassists in the world?
bucket head rocks on any instrument :)
ah but no one can play as good as him, you can tell by the style. The Buckethead style is unique.
he also plays piano, banjo,guitar,bass, drums, mandolin,organ ukulele, and hes even a rapper...
they didn't get that fame with their songs, they got it with their image and Disney backing them up.
I definately know what you mean, dude. It should be Buckethead getting that kind of popularity (although I doubt he wants the attention).
I admit, when I started the video I thought it was some guy dressed as bucket, then I saw his hands.
That is him, if you know Buckethead, you know that he can play clap on electric guitar too! watch some of the c2b3 stuff
Really !!! Killer !!!!
Buckethead is good at everything!
Entwistle and Claypool are two different players, with two different styles. I'm tired of people comparing.
i have been playing guitar for like 15 years....and i cant slap on bass at all....THIS IS PHENONORMAL
you can really here the les claypool influence in this jam
damn he can even play bass?jeez man he can do anything!
OMFG that was awesome. FunkyBucket.
lol his guitar in the background. i can imagine it thinking stuff like "thats right. you better enjoy yourself. after he's done playing with you, ima FUCK YO SHIT UP, so that NO ONE will EVER be able to play another note on your obese strings AGAIN!!!"
if anyone played this good I don't think they would pretend to bee someone else
Holy shit he can really SLAPPA DA BASS!
@ baseballgod710
That is the best thing ive heard in several months
he plays utterly fast. makes me wonder if he doesn't have some condition that allows him to play that fast. I mean, well, it's hard to explain unless you play
OMG!!!! brian can play anything :D What a speed and technique!!! amazing...

Bass: Gene Simmons
Lead Guitar: Buckethead
Drums: Laust Sonne
Vocals/guitar: James Hetfield

@Arcenicum actually, this is probably the straightest and realest video on youtube.
buckethead, slash, steve vai/joe satriani/ywngwie malmsteen VS flea, marcus miller, geezer butler/geedy lee/stanley clarke
@Nemofranciskovic Doesn't look like his body shape. More like buckethead himself, but they've toured and playd together so much so I think bucket has picked up a thing or two ;)
at 0:35 he's like, "hey guys i'm doing good"
Buckethead and Les are both amazing and have huge respect for each other.
OK now I think Buckethead and Jordan Rudess are the only 2 people who can play every instrument....
he plays guitar electric and acoustic bass, piano drums , and banjo as well as nun chucks :D
my mind is blown!!!!!!
That's Les Claypool, if you dont look at the video and just listen, you can tell
@Silvermanav It's definitely Auto-Wah
@FortisBong Any guitar player worth is salt can generally play the bass. Its usually true the other way around as well.
because your slappin da bass
ver a buckethead tocando siempre me desanima... nunca voya poder hacer algo asi
Agreed dude, agreed.
0:25 is off da chain! i had no idea hhe played bass too. this dude is awesom
Who is the player

Yom! epic

Surprising, no one mentions Victor Wooten. You can't have a discussion about great (living) bass players without mentioning him. In any case, no disrespect to buckethead intended, but his genius is the guitar, not the bass.
