What amazes me about Charles’s playing-other than everything else everyone in this comment section has already said-is that the bass-ness (if that’s a word) is not lost even though he’s covering guitar solos. There are people who can play the bass like they’re playing guitar…Sheehan comes to mind…but very few can play guitar parts on the bass while at the same time doing what a bass player should do-dominate the low end and provide the groove. Hats off to Charles. Wow.

now relax a little bit. he's very good but "with ease". he's a) rehearsing this difficult stuff for days, maybe weeks for the more difficult cases, b) he's behind the safety of his videos most of the time and can cut his video together the way he pleases c) being a youtube player, he can take as many takes as he wants until it looks and sounds flawless. now i'm not saying he's not great. he definitely is insanely good. but i can assure you it's not as easy as it looks for him. he will admit that himself i'm sure. also how can you diss the greats like that? first of all, they had to come up with this stuff in the first place and they play it live in front of an audience night for night, no video safety nets available there. it's a whole different animal.

I'm a huge dream theater fan and it's interesting how you compare the Govi and Petrucci solos. To me, the Petrucci solo is a "GUITAR SOLO" and the Govi one is "intense jazz fusion runs" which completely translate to bass. I could hear a bassist playing that kind of solo on bass, I'd expect it from a jazz bassist doing a solo. The petrucci one though is really interesting to hear translated onto bass as you add in 'guitar-isms'. That isn't something a bassist would traditionally play, at least until recently when progressive metal brought in really inventive bass playing. GOAT is another case of that, since even Tim's guitar playing is kind of "he writes complicated stuff on his computer and then figures out how to play it on guitar". Not if, just how.
