Prove someone is a better bassist than Les Claypool.

I recognize that the technical skill is greater, but it just doesn't "sound" as good to me

what is wrong with me
>>
>>66156295
That's more gimmicky than it is pleasantly sounding. Not saying I could do that, or that it sounds bad, It's just I'm guessing he could play 1 bass better than 3.
>>
>electric bass
>>
>>66156259
Technically amazing, doesn't sound as engaging.

>>66156351
Exactly on the mark in my opinion. It's definitely not boring, you know, but I just can't get into it. I prefer Les' style.
>>
>>66156362
And he does.

But yeah the reason for the multiple basses is they're tuned differently, and to me the tune is quite pleasant.
>>
>>66156259
You need to be black to play the bass?
>>
>>66156531
It helps.

you're just biased, anon. the thing you need to do now is to insult anyone disagreeing with you while trying to make your opinion look like the only one that matters, and you'll be ready to post in any thread on this board no matter what's discussed
>>
>>66156531
If it's not bowed, it helps to be black
>>
>>66156543
Sure does!

Thanks for the shitposting advice though.

Thoughts?

Dave usually gives the band a bad reputation, but the basslines have been consistently great.

Only correct answer in this thread

Les is a great bassist though
>>
>>66156845
So much fucking this. Levin is a god.

Since Levin is already here, let me put some Pastorius.
