- Victor Wooten shows how a simple 25 cent hair tie is what makes his solo go on both versions of "Sword and Stone" from his new albums. Check out our video with Victor: www.notreble.co...

Just dont tell anyone bro
299k 😂😂😂 rewatching this video after it popped up in my recommended feed
What a great idea, always wondered what the hair-tie was for. Alternatively, on a fretless you can thump the harmonics above the 24th 'fret' with your right hand, does the same thing. Probably works on a fretted as well. Try it, you can tap all the harmonics above 24 while you play, even do entire harmonic melodies over the top of your main part.
Victor is amazing!
THANK YOU SO MUCH! The Trio concert the other night was AWESOME, couldn't have asked for more it was so good! peace man!
Victor is the man
Victor Wooten has such a humble but intelligent charm. There's no bassist I'd rather learn from more.
VICTOR MY HERO!!!
That's NUTS! I might have to play with this.
This is cool!
Dang, now I need to get a distortion effect lol
Who would actually share his “secrets”? VICTOR WOOTEN !
lots of fun! haha
YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GREAT!!!!!!!!!
Wow, never heard of a tenor bass before
Robbie J Yeah, the great Stanley Clarke invented the tenor bass around 1979 -1980 to move his sound away from the synth bass which became popular around that time.
Victor, thank you! How do you do it?
😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱🎸🎸🎸😍
But, is that thing made in plastic or something like that??
...like the video....
#shibarmy
Lol I went to his summer camp
yea It is pretty loose.
Another useless msg that was meant to distract you from your real lesson plan! MOVE ON! '
Its not even his bass playing that makes him great is how humble he is that makes even better.
Exactly!. His bass playing is great, but his intelligence, attitude, and humility give him a charm that no other bassist has.
...and now you just have to play "regularly"! hahahhaha
bass: it's like guitar
only cooler
Damn is there anything this man does that isn't fucking amazing. He has such a unique perspective on music and teaching.
Vic is so good I didn't even know he had distortion on for that solo, it just sounds so clean
once again, another move that Vic took and popularized from his wise older brother, Reggie... those Wootens, I tell ya... music wizards!
0:26 low battery lol.
Estornudos lol 😂😂😂
That man is Ahead of his time.....THINKER
I've been playing bass and a big fan of this man for 22 years and I've never seen anything like this
I just did it on upright by cutting 2 hairties and trying them back together around the strings
Can't wait to throw a distortion ped on next and see what's up. So simple yet mind-blowingly innovative
The guy has the style and charisma that only comes from knowing your stuff+++. Like he even gives a sh*t what you wanna be clowns and racists say. He walks the walk, dudes.
Wow it’s amazing! Could I download this video to translate in Mandarin for my friends in Taiwan and put on my YT channel, and of course I will introduce your channel that my friends can watch more videos here!
Amazing cat. I've heard and seen him play several times, solo and with Bela Fleck and the Flecktones. Mesmerizing, especially to fellow bassists. I ran into him with his wife and child walking around Ann Arbor MI many years ago before a gig he played downtown there. What a nice guy.
That is amazing . I never though to do that or that it was just something as simple as that to get the sound effect . Just plugged in my base and borrowed a hair band , tried it . It works ! WOW
Fucking beastly God.
Damnit, every time I play this video I think the battery on my phone is dead ... :27
With all due respect sir, I am a guitar player who switched over to bass because I have more fun slapping a bass... Also. If you press your thumb and pointer finger together at a 90 degree angle, you can replicate a guitar pick and pull off pinch harmonics on a bass when you want it and not just all the time. You're still the Guru of bass brother! Much love.
Would be fantastic if you could translate to Spanish this kind of videos, I want to understand perfectly but, my English isn't very good
Thanks.
Nice! Thank you for sharing Brother. Keep Doing That Voodoo That You Do!
Love the comments here. But i wish more modern bass players understood that he was the guy that created those techniques that they're using today.
It sounds terrible to me. I'll pass on that technique. No disrespect intended.
The world would be a much better place of more people took up Victors take on life.
25 cent hair tie on a 10,000 dollar bass
Clearly the hair tie is the reason that sounds so good lol Victor is the man.
What’s the point? What ever happen to food old fat sounding bass?
I never knew why people use the hair ties .Till now :>)
Wow! And I been doing it the hard way after all these years LOL
How did I get here? Well I was looking @ Bootsy on bass doing his solo & kept clicking till the pizza in z over was done. I recognized Victor's name & saw this. Unfortunately I don't play bass, but bc it was between me & him... I wanted to check it out. Glad I did, time to eat: Pizza, chips, drink juice, sit on the floor & watch Terminator 3 & chill. Yaul have a weekend, ya hear.
Basically a pinch harmonic for every note!
Super Awesome Victor!
Now I don't have to buy a guitar, hell yeah
Used this yesterday - it worked well. On some of my basses though you can't access the fingerboard at the 17th fret but it works well at the 15th, 14th or even the 12th. Great stuff!
Wow, interesting technique. I like it.
lul my friends teacher is Anthony Wellington who told him to do this
Ese wey esta muy feo con todo respeto
Victor is just the man... Love you man
These harmonics really help alot!! :) .. Arigato ..wooten sensei!!!
Victor is amazing!
😳
Tats F reaking amazing!!
"This is a secret between you and me and UA-cam" =P
God damn are there more camps soon?
Bass Rules!
One of the best humans
thats pretty dope
31,220 additional hairties have been sold around the world
Thanks Victor for truly being a bassist with love for the Brotherhood
Kein Spass ohne Bass! (No fun without Bass)
you control your destiny, the only one stopping you from doing what you wish you could is you. if its in your heart go buy a bass dude!
Excellent
You can't teach that.
秘密もクソもない情報社会
I love this man but this is hilarious!!! Yea, that's all you need to create harmonics hahahaha shhhhh it's a secret... lmao
Me neither. And look up Les Claypool. Possibly the greatest bass player of all time (tied with Victor Wooten) and Claypool is white.
Ficou show
what if he has no arms ?
wow.
Idk, never did this before lol. I always felt like a bass God when I played pitch harmonics, now my whole life is a lie lol
Shit godam........ you are smart victor! I love it
Man !! Vic is so ridic'! Super fast funky dude!! Thanks for that little trick, VIC!!
what kind of distortion can sound close to what he uses here?
And remember: keep this between you and me and the +/- 15.000 other viewers :D
This guys my inspiration and I dont even play bass but I wish I did
Capo vitorrrrr gracias loco😂😂😂😂😂
Sweet. Gotta run to the drug store and try this. Thank you for this.
Will it make a significant difference if I use it clean?
