  • Get that fucking thing in the hands of Tosin and we'll see if there's anything to be gained by having 17 thousands strings....

  • music from keygen?

  • I think that is a "Chapman stick", not a bass or a guitar.

  • Rocket or Guitar?

  • cool, reminds of something they were playing in Jabba the Huts lair.

  • Its Super Mario guy :)

  • Big guitar omg

  • now that's what I call a twelve string

  • WHO NEEDS BASSISTS?!?!?! I feel so replaced >_<

  • you only get so many fingers

  • it seems outrageous, but you gotta admit -

    he's playing the fuck out of that thing!

  • Why do keyboardist's always worry about a string player?

    There has always been Harp and string instruments around, since we could understand music and it's form..Last I saw, there is no shortage of keyboard players..Yo guys will always get the studio work before anyone else. Relax..

  • haha xD i was amazed the first time i saw this, then i realized he has a delay pedal repeating the notes xD wowwwwwwww

  • Dude.. thats an 11 string Bass Guitar. also known as a Chapman Stick.

  • @moose656 if you are talking about the guitar he is playing you are retarded

  • isnt this what keyboards were invented for?

  • I got blisters on me fingers

  • optimus prime`s dick

  • to bandticker - just an FYI, (no dis intended) that is a bass guitar. Jean Baudin has been doing amazing things on bass for years. you were lucky to be there for this. cheers!

  • its called Transcend by Jean Baudin. and its an 11 string BASS guitar. dumbass.

  • @hi1hello1hi You are also a pretty dumbass. It's actually a Chapman Stick, think twice before insulting someone.

  • @TheLexVaughan "the Chapman Stick usually has ten or twelve individually tuned strings and has been used on music recordings to play BASS lines, melody lines, chords or textures." from the wikipedia. so yea, its essentially an 11 string bass. but yes, you are correct as well.

  • @hi1hello1hi well... if you want it to be a 11 string bass, keep it that way. But you should know that from the 11 strings that this instrument has, only the first five/four strings are "like" bass strings. the other half have gauges more "like" guitar strings (for example, usually the last one is 0.008-0.010, try and put that on bass and see what happens). My point is that it is not a bass guitar, the same way that a mandolin is not a guitar or a trumpet is not a saxo. Peace! :)

  • @hi1hello1hi Shakespeare said: "A rose is a rose, is a rose. A rose by any other name would smell just as sweet." Whatever you call it, it is a stringed instrument played melodically and percussively with both hands. I know the Chapman Stick, and this is similar. Check out on youtube, the 'Chapman Stick, also do a search for 'Two handed Guitar. What ever you call it, the technique and playing of many is much better than this particular version.

  • Check it Stanley Jordan !!!

  • Is that a Novax fanned fret?

  • that sounds familiar ....

  • thats one hell of a bass

  • amazing sounds, I really like it!

  • This makes me want to get a hold of an extended range 12 string electric guitar. :D

  • That Guitar looks based on the 'Chapman Stick.' Check it out. I was at NAMM, standing in front of that guy when this vid was taken. While it is impressive to those not familiar to such styles, much of what is played, sounds like a 'modal' style. Meaning based on a scale not major or minor. He may be great, but what he is playing in this vid, is not that out of reach. A good 'Rock' tapping stylist, with full melodic tonality, is more difficult and interesting than what this guy is playing.

  • @JoeyJoelBand Interesting, because much of the rock tapping I hear is miles inferior to this. Not to mention that part at 1:19 is impossible to ignore, since it "speaks directly to my soul". The comments on this instrument are the obvious example of "listening to music with the eyes instead of the ears". Who cares about size? As long as the sound's good I don't care how big it is, even if it's a tree! Good music can come out of anything if people are able to put their soul into it!

  • @sledgehog1 The 'rock tapping you hear is inferior?' 2 what I hear? U assume you know what I hear. What I said was: "A GOOD 'Rock' taping stylist, with FULL MELODIC TONALITY; I stand on that. I refer specifically to what that guy is playing, not what the instrument can do with a better player. If U don't know what a Chapman Stick is, or the difference of full tonality played on an instrument, I'd understand your attitude. Glad 1:19 touches your soul. Exotic, yes, virtuosity? That, it is not.

  • @sledgehog1 One more thing... don't take my word for it.. type in Chapman Stick, listen to what some are doing. Then type in, 'Two handed Guitar,' When you have listened to a greater variety of two handed players, you will understand why I don't think Jean Baudin on that specific version, is doing anything that reflects virtuoso playing. Other guys are playing complex counter point full melodic passages. Much harder to do than what this guy is doing.

  • @JoeyJoelBand damn! I saw Chapman Stick and he is great.. thx man! :D 

  • Интересно, сколько стоит комплект стун для него

  • BASS***

  • 12...string.....bass......awes­ome

  • @gnelly13 Only the bottom strings are bass. The top ones are guitar.

  • awesome guitar skill but it sounds like 8 bit NES music . . .

  • It's technically a 12 string bass guitar with an extended range. This player has posted online from time to time talking about his basses. They are awesome!

    I believe this one is tuned from a C#0 to a G4

  • virgin

  • For those who don't know, this is a chapman stick, or at least a version of one... They usually have 11 or 12 strings. They are supposed to be played by using an 8-finger tapping technique that you may see some guitar and bass players use as wellm

  • SHIT !!!

    

  • great job.

  • that would be a basterd to restring

  • it's a bass you basstards

  • its an 11 string bass

  • that's a bass not a guitar...

  • @swizzch33s3 bass GUITAR.

  • @swizzch33s3 nope, it's both bass and a guitar, search some information before posting!

  • @potatojuice321 It's technically a 12 string bass guitar with an extended range. This player has posted online from time to time talking about his basses. They are awesome!

    I believe this one is tuned from a C#0 to a G4

  • @MrDakotapotts explain expanded range ?

  • @rs200000000000 A normal bass has 4 strings, and up to 24 frets. That's 3 and a half octaves, which is a total of 42 individual pitches -- 44 if you bend the highest one.

    I won't bother to do the math on this one, but it's something like 3 times the amount -- so roughly 130 possible notes on this bass.

    Also, it allows you to finger it in a much more convenient pattern. Staying in the same place and moving strings rather than moving around the neck.

  • Thats epic, eddy van halen would be proud of that cuz that is crazy taping

  • lets face it tho its a pretty pointless instrument. . . and ugly as fuck

  • i Know that its a bass but if that were a guitar there is no way you are playing any chords it takes up 2 hand widths on the fretboard. so that shits still crazy widest fucking instrument ever.

  • snape's impossible guitar brought me here

  • This is just ridiculous.

  • would you tune that to the entire musical alphabet or what? O.o

  • I dozed off; did I miss anything?

  • very cool, but as i'm sure it's been laboured here many times, that's a bass.

  • Devolve o pênis do Optimus Prime

  • it's a 7 string guitar with the standard 4 bass strings above (both combined) in my opinion, looks more like a bass though!

  • Buy yourself a piano

  • chapman stick no?

  • Do you have his permission to use this footage? Also, do you have his permission to lie about the instrument he was playing? I think this kind gentleman would be offended.

  • How can you be a guitar player yourself, and not see that this instrument is an extended range bass? Pathetic, just pathetic.

  • i get that this instrument is a cool piece of artwork. I'm not taking anything away from the luthier. But the title of this video should have been "fat guy wanks on a bass with a delay pedal like every jackass at guitar center" Not, Insane GUITAR solo.....
