Which was your favourite reaction?!
The one at 2:35 - such a friendly guy and honestly impressed
the guy at 8:57 ... he was cool
Russian guy
2:35 said it all!!! What great video as always the like button was tapped into non existence!
The first guy was very funny
"Hey I'm a beginner" while holding a custom bass with a rack of very nice instruments behind him
Yeah, fooling people with a LeFay that costs an arm and a leg. Picking something like a Schecter would be better I guess :D
Yeah! Just wanted to write exact this! 😂🤣👍
@@skwisgaarskwigelf1365 A LeFay with serious wear on it from lots of use.
So true 😅 should learn from the doo
@@IdiHaps HELLO KITTY BASS
Poor Charles, he just wants to do a harmless prank but everybody knows him.
Lesson learned: put that Fing mask on!
Yea maybe need different studio, with different bass, and face mask on 😂
Eventho he still have pretty "distinct" playstyle so some ppl will still realize.
That's why The Dooo's successful with his omegle videos because he keeps his identity anonymous XD
Suffering from success
@@dimitrisgk6718 dj khaled
The absolute insane amount of guts it took for the guy who played bass for him, he obviously recognized Charles. I would have been way too scared to play bass in front of somebody as good as him, that's really putting yourself out there. Mad respect.
I'm not totally sure, but I think that was another bass tab youtuber lol
Charles: Keep playing! Keep practising!
Stranger: Thanks you too!
So nice to see that these people are kind to Charles who's just a beginner
Hi, it's me at 3:13, the editing doesn't really reflect how nice Charles is, we talked for a good amount of time about how people like him make bass popular again and how I was so happy about it
You had thé best reaction out of all of the dudes! Tbh i think my reaction would be even more over the top though 😅 and yeah its awesome that bass gets more attention due to yters like Charles and Davie504
"I know you, you won't do this to me" 🤣 great talking to you!
I see that buckethead pfp xD, it's real nice
"Yeah nah dude...i know you. Play me anything..." Of course that's the answer.
Look, a bucketbot around here \m/
Charles: "I aM bEgInNeR"
Everyone: "OMG! I know you"
Charles: "No rEaLlY I aM bEgInNeR"
Everyone: "Suuuuure bro"
Charles: "I jUsT sTaRtEd WoRkInG oN dIs"
Everyone: _Just roll with it_
😂
Charles: "I aM bEgInNeR"
Everyone: "OMG! I know you"
Charles: "No rEaLlY I aM bEgInNeR"
Everyone: "Nope"
Charles starts playing hardcore stuff. "Ha-ha i joked".
Charles: "I aM bEgInNeR"
dudes: "I know you..."
Charles: "No rEaLlY I aM bEgInNeR"
girls: "Ok"
Charles: "I jUsT LeArNeD daT sOnG"
girls: _"You LIE"_
The hilarity of everyone already knowing him was pure awesomeness.
Yeah but imagine he meets David404 on omagele and they both pretend to be not know the bass
Lmao that'd be so stupid I would actually love to see that happen. Imagine them just pretending to be horrible at bass eventhough they're both good at it lmao
SLAPP!
Thats impossible
"Every 60 seconds, a minute passes"
*Big Man Tyrone has entered the chat*
There are a lot of people who play very fast technical stuff on the internet, but Charles by far is the most MUSICAL. It's not just fast to show off how fast you can go, it's melodic and you can listen to it on repeat forever.
His stuff is on spotify and its really easy to just listen too
Fact i was about to watch this on my laptop but stoped it right away and put it on my main pc with the THX system. Was great
Agreed, Charles has the rare ability to make something difficult sound musical too
definitely agree
He's also very good at writing basslines
2:25 guy is a golden collection of new memes
"Im just starting learning bass", and there's 8 basses behind him
what a hyped learner
Charles, I'm 71 and have been playing bass since the 60's. I've been maybe better than adequate, but I still practice and constantly try to learn more. I'll never do what you can and probably will never play in a band again. The learning, music and keeping my brain sharp are my rewards.
Wow that's a long time I guess you are really good then.
@@phantomd8789 I'd grade my bass playing advanced and adequate.
Keep rocking, David! I respect your combination of experience and humility. :)
Humility is what makes an above adequate musician. You the man
White beta males really out in force around here aren't they. Cringe.
I’m so glad there are people who know who he is...
everybody seems to
He was in pretty good amount of Davies videos so that's one of the reasons
Charles: I'm just starting
Everyone: You're famous though, can't trick me
I'm actually really surprised non musicians can actually tell you are on another level which is awesome
When your doctor says you have a B-12 deficiency, it could mean you need to buy 11 more basses.
"just started learning bass" while he has 10 basses in the background and a poster of bass
hey when he takes something up, he goes all in!
sshhhhh........
Dear Charles, though I'm not a bass player (I'm an old drummer and even more a perscussionist), I must say: awesome on more than one level! Seen several of your videos now. Not only in terms of technique, groove, musicality etc, but the way you seem to want to (and able to) inspire other (young) musicians, that to me is the reason why I started following you here. Keep that up, we need more of this. Regards from The Netherlands, Peter van Stigt.
I can't imagine the experience of having Charles Berthoud playing for you. That's just incredible!
“Anyway, here’s wonderwall”
-Charles playing bass on Omegle
Maybe it's time for a show-off musician to play Wonderwall...
@@CharlesBerthoud OMG HE SAW THE COMMENT
@@CharlesBerthoud yes!!!
AHHH CHARLES YOURE THE BEST!!!!
@@CharlesBerthoud wonderwall in the style of Victor Wooton 🤣🤣 lets go!
Charles pretending to be a beginner is something my brain can't process
It's funny how mostly nobody believes him when he says he's new.
Well, his setup and all the other basses in the background kinda give it away too
He probably had to practice more to play badly
Actually he is bad pretending he is bad
Same ... hes on Godlike mode already playin with kids.
Love the way you inspire people to practice. Enjoying all your videos. Thanks Charles.
Your skills, effort and sharing is bringing joy to this world. Thank you so much.
Everybody: *recognises Charles*
Charles: This is going great
Girl: "You were so lying about being a beginner."
Charles:" Well you're lying about being a cat so.. "
ARE YOU NEGATING HER AUTOPERCEPTION?!
I just got to that part when I read this comment. 🤣
@@ExtremeMetalLIVE Ahahahahahah
It starts off seeming a bit mean but actually it's kind of amazing to just drop into their lives and give them your performance! Brilliant video.
You know that moment when you just want to be a stranger but literally every damn person alive knows you? This is what charles is experiencing
He is suffering from success
When the people clearly know who you are but you're still sticking to the bit. That's the commitment of a man who has been playing BASS for over a decade.
Let's be real, the real winner here is us. 11 mins of Charles playing epic bass solos
Sometimes i forget how
Charles its a technical god. How can he sound so perfect. Not human
One of my favorite persons on YT. He just seems like a nice guy! Very respectable!
"I just started playing" say the guy with a 5K$ bass and ten basses in the background lol
Hey bro.
@@steverude That comment made my day.
Every single fan: "Oh my gosh it's really you!"
Charles: "...No..." *acts like a beginner*
"...Nah, just kidding, I'm awesome." *SHREDS BASE*
Bass
All your base are belong to me
Bass. Not "base".
@@coscwyite no, it's definitely base.
@@since1876 you got me there
This is the kind of job that makes the difference! Thanks for making all of us so happy!! You are a great person Charles!
Great solos as always! Thank you for sharing these!
Charles: "I'm a beginner."
Random Omegle guy: "Your LeFay says your not."
New mission acquired: Spread the powerful word of BASS
"Yeah im a beginner with a LeFay bass and about six other basses in the background"
He's far too famous to get away with it. It's almost like he's a savant, but with all of his interlectual facilities in place.
He's INCREDIBLE... 👍
The girl's reaction was great...... "That was something simple??!!"
"I just recently learned to play bass."
"I know you, don't do this to me."
xDD
As a drummer I would very much like to play with you. You're brilliant!
Could you keep up!?🌞
I agree with you on that... he's a freaking Beast.
stop begging
Even though they know he's a legend, they still get blown away
When a Pro like Charles pretend he is a beginner, it won‘t work because everyone knows he is a legend😂 The power of BASS lives in Charles.
if you ever find a person that doesnt recognize you, you have to be like "I'm struggling with this part, and then when they give you some tips, you start working through it and then go "I got it" and THEN start shredding.
for some reason seeing their sincerity and reactions make me emotional. good for them for trying.
That was one of the best things i've seen on UA-cam lately. Such a brilliant video and playing. I appreciate you so much bro. Never stop doing what you're doing! 🙌
1:07 Ay there I am!
The days of UA-cam musicians going on omegle are coming to an end. Everyone recognizes you guys, hahahaha.
4:18 "You make me want to sell my guitar." My thoughts exactly. Either that or "I'm not worthy, I'm not worthy, I'm scumm, I suck!" 😂
Awesome playing! I just found your channel. I had no idea that anyone played the bass as a lead instrument! Love it!!!
Plot twist: Omeglers are now all pretending to be random people just to talk to famous youtubers xD
My first real job out of high school was working at a music store and one day this teenage kid comes in and plays the hell out of a guitar and my boss, who also play guitar said, "Wow, that was impressive! Do you play in a band?" To which the kid said, "no, not yet, right now I just play with myself." My boss replied, "well that explains a lot."
"im just starting bass... that's why i have 7 basses in a rack already and a poster on my wall of basses"
It is always so amazing to watch you play...in my opinion you have every bass player beat by a long shot...just so comfortable and master level use of a bass....
It is so satisfying to see people realize it is you instantly. You came all the way to here.
The guy's reaction at 2:35 is priceless 😅 Love that dude
Thanks you :D
@@guroyy You're welcome 😊
@@guroyy No way it's you
"I'm a beginner"
**slaps hard enough to break a finger**
I really love hearing you play! It was really exciting to hear all the different pieces and all the variations of Megalovania were very enjoyable. Keep up the hard work!
"I've never seen a good bass player"
**Rain filter with Davie504**
While he played some VICTOR Wooten tune.
The stage is set. The players are ready. Now for the ultimate crossover : TheDooo vs Charles Berthoud !
I would love to see that!
@2:57 This dude knew you where putting this on UA-cam and pretending if he has the most Epic spontaneous response ever! Hahahahahaha! Well done...show-guy!
"Yeah, I just started picking up bass..."
Half a dozen basses stacked in the background LOL!!!
The guy at 2:20 had the best reaction to anything ever. In the history of reactions, it is the best.
To be fair, that was the best solo.
Has he played this before? Sounds really familiar
9:52 That's some insane sh-[open E] 😂
BASS is everywhere!
i didnt know how else to reply lmao
@@liampawlaczek9552 He really blew up your mind with the BASS 🤯
@@TheKalos yh he did bro he is amazing
Clever. Love seeing the honest smiles.
You’re not fooling anyone Sir !! Love your music, your Channel is insanely cool
That Tetris theme will be stuck in my head for days.
Same here
Could be a worse earworm
@@sandralouth3103 baby shark do da doo
@@camrongray3406 this is the song that doesn't end, yes it goes on and on my friend, some people started singing it not knowing what it was, and they'll continue singing it forever just because......
I literally replayed it for an hour😅
Charles: In this video, I'm going to realize that I have become an epic legend that everyone knows and am way more famous than I ever imagined.
Gotta love that Power Mad at 7:50
SO SO uplifting to here you play Charles .Keep spreading the joy .
*Says, that he is a begginer*
*Shows all his basses in the background*
"I'm going to pretend I'm a beginner" with a rack of instruments behind him...
Charles, I must say, you are easily my favorite bassist. Im constantly awaiting the next video. INCREDIBLE.
How to impress any Internet person: Megalovania.
I love how Charles is pretending to be a beginner.... despite the epic collection of them behind him XD
theyre his "flatmates" ahah
Hey Charles, I’m the lad who had the chance to be in the video, I was the dude with the guitar and the not great tone, happy to meet you!
I always thought a Bass just played a basic background beat, I had no idea it was capable of producing such awesome music...!
"Every 60 seconds a minute passes"
Idk why, but that hit me hilarious 😆
ahahaha oh my god, 2:23 this is my whoa, you're better man it was super
I love how everyone knows you and then they are so confused when you don't play something amazing.
It’s hard to be a stranger when you play bass like a legend 🤷🏽♀️
CB: "I just started lear.."
Stranger: *dripping with fore thought* "Uhuuuuu, Riiiiiiiiight"
I see you're practicing my expertise in "crap" bass.
“I’m a beginner...”
Little did they know that Charles is the chosen one, so being a beginner counts for nothing.
-anime feels
that tetris theme was just bonkers.
The change of expression from "He has a long way to go before that sound gets any better" to "I have a long way to go before my sound gets within a mile of his". Very funny, indeed!
How you STILL don't have at least one million subs I'll never know!
Bass is underrated
Same. Best musician on youtube and possibly the best bass player in the history of mankind and he's got 600K. Absurd. He deserves 20 mil.
@@59thfsaviation79 the shit he can play is mind boggling!
This comment got me intrigued, so I went and did some research of Social Blade. Charles' channel immediately started gaining significant subs and views back around Sept. 2019. Before that point he had about 3600 subs. Any guesses what interactions with a certain other bassist might have sparked that? Anyway, his view and sub growth is remarkably linear since then. Just steady growth of 25k +/- 5k subs per month. At that pace he'll hit 1M in about 13 months.
Now, perhaps there are some things that might get Charles some new attention and increase that rate. I personally think he'd be a fantastic interviewer of famous bassists much like Julia over at Thomann's Guitar and Bass is. And who knows what might go viral on UA-cam at any point? But my point is that after an initial shot in the arm by Davie, he's consistently earned more and more subs just by doing his own thing and putting out quality content that I think has plenty of rewatch value if someone finds any of it even years later.
So, I know you weren't expecting a little essay, but it just piqued my interest. I've been quite impressed at Charles' flourishing as a content creator, and it looks like he's just going to keep going up and up and up. Good job, CB.
Charles playing Bach's double thumb live and whitout editing, respect.
Awesome video! That was also probably my favorite playing from you. There's no doubt that you are one of the best, but there was something great about the spontaneous jamming feel of what you were playing. I don't know if it's something that you are interested in doing, but I would really enjoy seeing more videos of spontaneous playing, or jamming, from you. Thanks, as always, for sharing your talent (and hard work) with us.
Charles your talent is off the scale. Keep making the vids, and please stay as humble as you are.
Just keep your humility Charles! Even a musical illiterate like me love watching you make your Bass sing & talk, just beautiful!
It sucks that you’ve achieved a level of talent that makes it almost impossible for you to be an unknown musician, but I don’t care because that means I just get to enjoy your playing.
What’s wrong with being known
now THAT put a smile on my face! You're great Charles "the pro"!!
Your videos always put a big smile on my face. Outstanding!
I think the window of having a big enough UA-cam following to appreciate the video, but not enough recognition to dupe people is really small and I think you are at the tail end of it, or maybe just passed it but it was amazing.
Oh, and telling that guy he should play bass was just brilliant!
Yay! I love these kind of videos! ❤️
Props to the guy playing Power Mad.
So simple but the timing is actually quite awkward, it's a good one to hone your sense of time.
