VIC DANGER (Waterstone 12 String Bass Guitar)

[roamerreed]

i know this is a little bit overused but... dear santa,

i know Christmas is a long time away,

but you need to know ahead of time,

i want you to make a 12 string bass,

for me to annoy my parents with :D.

[Ominous09]

Cleveland... hehe

[skram7]

Barry Bonds plays the bass?



[lowisao]

if u see that guy on the streen you would NEVER think he knows what a bass is

[althejazzman]

@lowisao Of course you would, he's black.

[t3hdanman]

I would expect this thing to be heard a lot better in recordings/live.

That is, if the bassist can play it well.

[alexmejia26]

This guys has some really killer skills

[MetalMaster2004]

How can you dislike this video?

[ThatGuitarGuy139]

i would hate to have to restring one of these...

[trickflip1]

@ThatGuitarGuy139 Actually not that bad, unless your action or setup gets messed up. Then it's a bad time.

[och70]

Only bad part about this video? All the damn background noise...but unfortunately, it was unavoidable based on the location.

[poofythebassplayer21]

this videos all i needed to get a 12 string im usin a waterstone 8 string rite now but i love the extra drive u get from a 12 string

[Coolkid174]

wow. thats a sweet guitar. i bet it tastes like chocolae lolipops

[981407036x]

hes the coolest guy i've seen, nothing but love for music... warms my heart...

[PennybagDarrell]

shit looks like it hurts.

[Game0Freak]

my father has one also but then in a sunburst color.

[Bass5el]

Slapping on a 12? This man hands must be made of granite!

[Mr12stringbass]

@Bass5el

It's not that hard.

[Boulberhane]

this video needs more views.

[phineasndani]

how expensive could be this bass guitar?

[TolerancEJ]

@mangosnake. I agree. Looks like plenty of space on he fretboard. It actually looks pretty good too. I personally don't care for the appearance of the semi-hollowbody basses, but this one looks really good.

[cameronj279]

that would be a bastard to tune

[mangosnake]

Wow ! Now this really makes me want to buy a 12 Strings Bass.

I tried one once (I think it was a Hagstrom but I'm not sure) and it was a stupid bass.

I mean the strings were all stuck together, you couldn't even play the A's without Hitting the E's or the D's. This one looks like it has a lot of space to play on.

[804pillow]

dUg Pinnick owns a 12-ver Lefty

[imthedorf1964]

@804pillow KING'S X RULES!!

[804pillow]

@imthedorf1964 Welcome to the 1st Church of R&R!

[Poddymagee]

@TheDanielFShow GOD DAMM IT TOLKEN YOUR BLACK.. YOUR GOOD AT BASS

[harro098765]

soooooooo badassss

[flubno]

Those look like fun, Im left handed so I would have to have one special made for a little less than double the price. I always thought that 8 string basses sounded like crap, not very musical. 12 strings Have a really cool and unique sound to them. Always wanted one !

[TheSmooshster]

Holy god dam I could'nt play this thing

[BassPedal2009]

i love theses basses but i don't like the slapping because there soo much noise from hitting all of those strings

[morelgungo]

umm....the noise from hitting the stings is point of slapping, without the noise from slapping you have finger picking.

[BassPedal2009]

@morelgungo im aware of that i play bass, im saying that the sound of the octave strings cancels out a majority of the sound

[sabrejack2]

@BassPedal2009 agreed. while the 12 string slap is a.. unique sound, I don't think it's a particularly good one. the 12 string bass makes so many more beautiful sounds than that.

[P4Y4ZOO]

bass gibson ?

[totalimmortal08]

@P4Y4ZOO no, waterstone

[BassPedal2009]

@P4Y4ZOO nah. waterstone

[barret707]

king

[videoer2112]

you got that right!

[FlyingHeadbutt100]

King's X show how a 12-string fills out the sound of a 3-piece band.

[krazyzark]

@FlyingHeadbutt100 King's X's bass tone is one of the most wicked ever, and has got me chasing down a good 12 string. Vic Danger is cool, but Dug Pinnick would be a better 12 string pitch man.

[BaphometStudios]

you my friend are DAMN GOOD

[theaint]

You sir are a legend.

[GrowTheCaine]

im not sure if i cant see all of the strings i know its a 12 but are there 3 pairs of strings together instead of 2 together like on a 12 guitar cause i cant see the other ones?

[wiiman250]

A friend of mine has a 12-string bass in his guitar store now. After watching this video, I will go down and play it and cherish the experience.

[submoronicbomb]

That's the most I've seen anyone do with a 12-string (4X3) EVER! Nice!

[mickfizz]

btw dgcf is a great way to tune it if it hurts too much

[mickfizz]

ive got a 12 string bass ,it will hurt to play after a while good luck trying to play like vic , your guitar players will just turn up more or leave the band

[KennyTheBassist]

Question, what is that beauty tuned to?

[craigdamage]

yikes!....the headstock is BIGGER than Vic!

I really like the way he plays rapid and funky but he also plays slow and melodic in order to let that big sound ring out.

Great instrument.

Great player.

[FLOORDROPPA]

Vic is absolutely right - these basses are really versatile - give one a go!

[GayDad420]

this guy has sold me on a waterstone bass. absolutely amazing.

[rjs]

Waterstone is very fortunate to work with such a talented artist...

[Indywolf7]

Sweet Vic! You're da Bomb...

"hey Vic...blawh, shwwppsstt, mumble mumble... What'd you say?" Diz "N - - S" LOLOL
