Hey 7sloth I've got a friend that wants to learn how to play bass, but he doesn't have the cash for really nice equipment. Is there any equipment that is quality and reliable but not too pricy?
@ImVayne I know I'm not 7sloth, but good decent quality brands would be Ibanez, Esp, Schecter, and many others. Usually not too pricey. He shouldn't worry about it, most bassists don't start off with boutique-quality gear anyway.
@bullsnake70 a good one for price is traben. The array, to start off with it's light as a feather, good sound, looks good, doesn't dive, and it has a built in pre-amp for about 200 or so, damn good bass to begin with, I went from it to a traben Havoc John moyer 5 string signature and holyyy shit lol kickass bass but the signature was like 650 ish but it's been worth it so far lol
I listen to this song now and think of how easy it is to play and how much I use to suck lol, try playing something off the new human abstract album, now that is hard
ur bass playing is amazing, how do u set your gear??? treble, mids, bass? i dont use a compresor because it kills the tone and volume of my amp, so what do u recomend from a tiny marshall mb 30????
You asked for advice on technique, so I'll give it. When you pop the string with whatever finger, use the wrist more than your fingers. You get a better tone.
the only, and I mean only advice I could possibly give you is to try to do some upstrokes in those bass chords @ 1:56. It'll help with timing...I have trouble doing it
@FleshStarvingBass Its a bit of a mixture of tone and technique. I play quite hard so i had to find a tone that softend the attack so it maintained the low end.
Fucken kickass cover, mudvayne is my favorite band and its nice to see some quality covers!! you kickass!!! im currently learning how to play dig on drums
hey man amzing cover :) just a Q how do u get that really growly bass sound even with all the low frequencies breaking through the highs ? like say i was to play in drop C and the guitars were all high in tone how would i be able to get the same sound as u and cut through with all the low? does it depend on guitar or amp? coz ive noticed warwicks depending on the model have a really low biting sound
Tell me one thing, recently I observed better Ryan fingering ,it isn't common style (and U can play very well has Him),However it's like a bit Steven Harris right?FOr gaining that heavy sound your finger go harder on the string right?Or it's all matter of equalization ?
dude you make me cream myself every time i watch your vids, are you using three fingers? and are you actually plucking or smacking them with the tip of your finger?
lol u do know this a cover this guy is in a band so probably does covers alot so he's probably making it his own ya know i mean he probably is aware he is not ryan from mudvayne as a fellow bassist my point is does this guy Rock Yes or no?
Look up Left For Wolves you ball bag. It's his band. Maybe get your facts right before posting shit like that. I even have their EP. He's hell of a lot better then you will ever be. You're just some fat fucker who sits in his mums basement and thinks he's a keyboard warrior. I'm pretty sure that 7sloth doesn't give a shit about your one pathetic comment.
I had always wondered what that was from 3:47 to 3:56 when he goes across all of the strings to make that weird grunt sound, I figured it had to be Ryan but I always pictured a pig in my head when I heard it.
ive been listening to mudvayne for so long. ld 50 is my fav album of all time(pretty much tied with prodigy fat of the land)..... i never ever noticed the pig sound before!!!! its a real oink!! so weird!
You have all the riffs down mentally but the bridges later on are a bit more complex; you have the notes for the most part but there is more in some of the riffs later in the song that you just didn't involve. That said, still the best MV bassist coverer on YT dude!
Hey man. I know I'm not one for giving much advise but one thing I might be able to point out is if you keep ur fret fingers arched more over the board u can reduce playing fatigue. I'm sure you'll notice a difference if u bend them more. I don't know if that'll work for you or not. peace man. thnx again for the covers.
i think this sound output is very clouded with the orig bass track. i can see and hear ur bass, but i hear ryan more, sorry. u should lower the track volume, great sound out of the low/mids!!
im talking about at 2:03 u can clearly make our ryans mumbling toneyness under the higher sounds from the ampeg, where u hear the difference in timing. but yeah, aside from the insane parts, excellent cover. perfect attitude and great quality sound.
just wondering, how long did it take you to master playing with 3 fingers?
