[rotocortez]

more slap...:)

[Dengia64]

rotocortez , you're rigth...this video is related to the period when I started playing after 8 years of stop.

And is exasperating and rough,and.... too slap .. and so imprecise, but I had a great energy in it.

Thanks, Ric-

[Klimpmeister]

Sweet sound!

[Dengia64]

bassmaster361, i really like Warwick basses... but i consider them out from my way to play... but considering the instruments .. they are Great.. thaks!!

Ric.

[lecram0]

Get the funk out of my face....

[Carthsgtr]

I love how his funk face looks as if he his going to smash the bass in anger.

Sexy groove though.

[bassistdc]

How about some fingerstyle playing.

[hiephoi058]

louis johnson sound :p

[Dengia64]

hiephoi058, only for the bass.... sigh..!!

Bye, Ric.

[Nutsazballs]

I don't know why you're playing a musicman if you go by ric. You should buy a rickenbacker

[Xkasanuga]

I love the classic 2EQ rays!

[BIGeSTRING]

look at your face when you play whahaha very funny

[rickenbacker95]

is that a 410 or 412?

[kosmicwizard]

@rickenbacker95 That is a Bergantino NV610 ... It is a 6X10 Cabinet. Cheers.

[CRITOBIAS]

che faccia fai

[jgsky]

WOW!

[BenKerr1]

he looks like beaker. dont close your mouth so hard man :P

[TheMRK259]

xD ahaha fantastiche le "faccette" XD comunque complimenti,buona esecuzione e bellissimo basso.. Adoro lo Styngray *_*

[Zauriel23]

Good funk-face! ;-)

[voncoolio]

tight

[Formaldeyde]

Ciao Dengia, è il basso che usasti nelle registrazioni con gli Aus Decline, vero?

[Dengia64]

Formaldeyde, hey, ciao!!... Si è questo e usavo anche uno SR fretless del 78 e un Precision fretless dello stesso anno. Un caro saluto....Ric.

[pufifa]

Great playing and great gear Dengia64!!!!

I play Ric 4003 through svt-CL. I recently sold Ampeg's hlf410 cause it was to 'boomy'.

I am searching for an online store with Bergantinos which shipps to EU? Any help from anyone much appreciated, thanks!

[kosmicwizard]

@pufifa Teh Berg is going to sound way more vintage than the HLF ... Try an Ampeg 210AV, 410HE or 810E in order to know what a Berg NV610 is going to sound like. Cheers.

[sicsofkm]

3 EQ ????

[Dengia64]

sicsofkm, hi!

There's no equalization in 1977 Stingrays...only a simple active bass guitar!

Bye Ric.

[sicsofkm]

@Dengia64

Oh!

realy!

Thank you so much for new Cognition

Ha Ha

(My English language is too bad so sorry for that) Haha

[Musicman20UK]

Man, that is one awesome setup. I have the AD200b Mk3, with different cabinets. I sold my two rays to purchase two other EB basses, but im thinking of getting another modern 4 string Ray. How easy is it to move the NV610?!

[Dengia64]

Musicman20UK , hi!

My mk2 is quite similar to your mk3.. the same sound!

My Bergie is simply fantastic but his weight is 100lbs... so difficult to trasport!

Thank & see you soon.

Ric.

[tbcass]

Well we know how it sounds with slapping and popping (used in about 5% of music these days) How does it sound finger style and with a pick.?

[Dengia64]

tbcass, hi!

If you enjoy my videos, you can find five Music Man Sitngray "Tests" played on my personal bassline... (2 plectrum tecnnique, 2 slap and one in fingering)...see them if you want!!

Bye. Ric.

[nader886]

that bass is beautiful

[danelbitzz]

fucking love that bass with all my heart, just got me the StingRay Classic Black w/Birdseye Maple, less then a month ago

[Dengia64]

..so,.... you have a wonderful bass now....

Compliments..

Ric.

[TheFunk65]

Good stuff

[MsCorrado69]

Really STING!!

[davyach]

W "Pongo Da Goto" e saluti dal Darione! Grande Dengia!

[Dengia64]

Ohhh grande Davide... la famosa lead Guitar dei mitici FOG!! Thanks..saluta Darione!!

Ric.

[gianlucajackpagano]

èèèèèè vvvveeerooooooo!!! Bel pezzaccio funky con un basso pauroso ma che sovrasta tutto è il tuo modo di suonare, la tua mano ed il tuo cuore. Ti stimo amico mio

[Dengia64]

Luca che ti devo dire, anche io ti stimo.

Ric.

[miguelbass]

Hot slapping Riccardo ;) ... such a beautiful bass... that's my favourite MusicMan - model and finish... i guess it's a classic. The tone reminded me of kajagoogoo from the 80's, they had brilliant slap bass lines in this context.

[Dengia64]

Thanks Miguel...kajagoogoo ... infact the best basslines of 80's. Sempre obrigado con te!!

Ric.

[Fagyo65]

MITO.

[Dengia64]

Grande amico mio!!!

Ric.

[BBlackEyes]

Mamma mia...Ric, fammi sentire 123448 video diversi e si capisce quando suoni tu :) Proprio il suono Rock! Yeah!

[Dengia64]

Sempre in debito con te Francesco....

Ric.

[BBlackEyes]

In debito? Semmai sempre un piacere mio vedere i tuoi video :)

Non vedo l'ora del prossimo raduno :)
