Seriously, if you want her to be judged beyond being an attractive female, then I'd say she's someone who can play bass like fifty million other people can play bass.

Not a put down. She's fine. But what is she doing that everyone else in a decent cover band isn't doing? Answer: Looking good doing it.

Wasn't convinced it wasn't mimed on the first track but I like her top..

I prefer if people jizzed up the track when doing this... otherwise...?????
I got bored by track 2, tbh...

Pardon me, but I like to think that I look good doing it too!

I enjoyed it - it was well worth sharing...ignore the naysayers.

I was going to say something like 'love is blind', but you told us not to ;)

She's a decent player, but there's something in the timing and articulation that leaves me feeling completely unmoved. She's ahead of the beat in much of the phrasing and that makes it sound anxious, and there's little dynamics or finesse.

Sorry Andrew.

Hmmmm it begs the question 'Would the clip have been posted if she didn't have a nice top on?'

IMHO no, otherwise I can potentially find hundreds (if not tens of thousands) of youtube bassists playing along to songs!

Agree 100%. I've not looked, but I bet she's got no vids of her on a bad-hair day.

its because its a girl sh*t
Must admit I love breasts, but also dislike this particular use of them at the same time.
Other than that, I'm not critical of her playing, nor wildly enthusiastic. The vid did inspire me to try those funky lines though.

[size=4]No better, no worse than a lot of these type of LooseTubes videos posted,[/size]
[size=4]Although I tend to agree with what xilddx (Nigel) has said. [/size]

There does seem to be a lot of fascination with cover version posts at the moment.
I had this one sent to me the other day.
Warning - The Bassist ain't got a pair of jugs on show.

Haven't clicked the link but you must be talking about Marta. I like her vids because you can see she's having a good time playing bass. To me that is a lot better then most of those showoff hey-I-can-play-like-wooten vids out there.

Marta is great, this ain't a patch on Marta.

I couldn't watch the vid as it was removed by the copyright holder, but I checked out her version of Get Lucky. Plodding and uninspiring I'm afraid. I'm genuinely baffled how this girl in hot pants could get 300k hits.

I've already come across this girl's videos on You Tube a while ago. ( What?)

Her playing is perfectly fine and I enjoyed it ( I play just about all of those songs myself, as it happens ) , but nothing special . ..yet. She's still a young person and has got loads of time to progress. My own playing has improved a lot since I was her age , and I expect she will only get better , so good luck to her.

Regarding the Stingray , that colour combination with the gold hardware ect isn't at all my taste , and it seems like a very feminine combination to me , but it's all just a matter of taste . The bass certainly sounds great.

Yet again though , I cannot help but notice , as soon as any young girl picks up a bass she automatically becomes a sex symbol to some people. Why is this? This girl is perfectly presentable but I wouldn't give her a second glance in the street . I've heard of men having their beer goggles on , but bass goggles? Maybe women who are finding it difficult to hook themselves a man should forget about speed dating and getting breast implants and get themselves a bass, stick a video of themselves on YT playing any old crap and wait for the pervy comments to come flooding in . I bet if I dragged up and did a couple of playalongs, I would get some interest from horny men .

There's a link on the text accompanying video on YT to where she gets her accessories , if that helps at all.

I like jugs and stingrays....

I look a bit like Toby Jug and I've got couple of Music Man basses. Would you like to be friends ?
