    The way McCartney puts together baselines is amazing. He has true mastery over the instrument, as well as an incredibly creative mind. What a great combination.

    You do the string bending perfectly (03:20) and that walk down perfectly at 04:04 . I just wonder if you should have used only the neck pickup on the pickup selector switch. I didn't think McCartney ever used the bridge pickup during the Beatles years.

  • @billybobjoetheprofessional3890
    @billybobjoetheprofessional3890 6 років тому +3

    This song is like a playground to me on the bass. I’ve only been playing for half a year (in a few days six months exactly), but I’ve been able to mess around with this song in ways I can’t with other songs yet. I can switch parts, change up the picking, and even just try something totally different and after a couple play-throughs, I can get it to sound decent. The repetitive nature of it helps a lot for sure, but it also just feels so much more malleable than any other line I know. Dunno why exactly

  • @kewkabe
    @kewkabe 4 роки тому +4

    リッケンバッカーのベース音色に完コピ、プラスポール独自のノリとUA-camで見たビートルズ系のベーストリビュートの中では最高だと思いました。この曲は大好きな曲で、ポールのベースも変化に富んでいて難しいと思うのですが、ベンチャーズさながらのテケテケの部分まで最高のノリですね。素晴らしいの一言です!!!
