The Greatest Bass Solo Ever

Stuart Hamm IS TOO FUCKING UNDERRATED. His solo albums and work with Joe Satriani are incredible demonstrations of his musical prowess, but no one talks enough about this dude and prefer to jerk off about how Flea is the G.O.A.T. of bass when that dude is overrated to the 25th power.

when the solo changes your expression you know its fire

Why.......there's no electricity in that stone ages? damed!!!

He is a amazing guitarist

I something very similar many years ago when Joe satriani toured with stu and Greg bissinet

the story goes he auditioned for cirque du soleil, sight-read their whole show and then they said "ok, show us something of your own..." and he did this, to which they apparently said "yeah, thanks, we'll let you know..."
ha haaaaa, you'd wait your whole life for the chance to say something like that to stu hamm. priceless.

Fek

Who is this guy

I actually saw this video in 2017 when I started playing bass and all I could play was the chromatic scale, I don't know why but I thought that playing classical music on bass or guitar was the coolest thing ever so the Moonlight Sonata intro was awesome to me, now 7 years later I can actually play that part of the solo, it's been a fun journey so far 😏

Moonlight sonata!

Up there with any great performance ever.

The solo absolutely just turns into the King of the Hill intro meets the South Park intro song at one point, but it's still beautiful.

Fingers of steel..... behind every bass player there's an happy wife.

He vs Stanley Clarke .

Sad to hear the people start to cheer only when he starts noodling just because it's fast. People can't understand that the previous part was the hardest to play

What I am about to do has not been approved by The Vatican

The greatest bass solo ever, in your opinion. It should read, "My favorite bass solo ever". There, it's fixed.

Been talking with friends. The very start sounds like Moonlight Sonata.... am i wrong? Or are my friends just high lol

stu hamm is a beast.

beethoven watching this : ☠️

I saw Stuart Hamm do this in a club during a Joe Satriani gig in the 80s ( Surfing with the Alien )

What his name ?

Пелтисы

Роккольцореп......маг

어캐 했노?

I just realized he left Lucy and Linus out.

I watched Stu do this live, I was flabbergasted.

Decent but i find davie504 way better

Either his guitar is out of tune or that’s what a bass guitar with frets gets you….out of tune. We can learn a few things from Les Claypool here.

Moonlight sonata?

In my Simpsons RP, this is played by Nelson

Some people say playing the bass is for the weak
Checkmate

I saw them in HOB Orlando and Stu did a bass solo with Eruption sections. Dude did moves I never knew were possible on a bass guitar.

When you use the whole bass but they want Freebird

@charlesberthoud

Primus before Primus.

He does not have permision from davie504 to play bass

Stu hamm rules!

Once that hokey pokey shit started playing it went downhill lol everything before was heavenly

More noodling.

Never thought I would hear Moonlight Sonata on bass.

see scott plummer sweep picking without a pick on his 10 string bass

if the undertaker choose a different path this would have been him lol

He's good, but he's no Ryan Martinie

Bilbo Bassgins

listen to this sht every day lmfao fuckin insane

True talent and playfulness are great together...

You've never heard of Charles Berthoud? Sad. He's the world's greatest bass player.
