  • I REALLY appreciate you guys putting these together!

  • @Bobstranz No problem I would really love to do more soon.

  • I love this guy. Any chance of him talking about setting up the bass, like the string height, messing with the truss rod, etc?

  • We are actually working on doing some setup videos for guitar / bass. Please subscribe to keep up to date with the latest lessons.

  • What gauge strings are you using? They look really thin. Great vid though, I love your tone

  • From what I remember Rufus uses La Bella, Nickel Wrapped, "Slappers"

    Here are the sizes:

    G String: 040

    D String: 065

    A String: 085

    E String: 105

    *B String: 128

    *B string on 5 String Bass Only. Hope this helps. -Brendan

  • What is the difference between the ghost notes and dead notes?or it's the same thing?

  • That opening lick is ace.

  • would really like to know what amp settings you use?

  • I don't really understand the difference between ghost notes, dead notes and muted notes. I've been playing bass for 2 years and I guess I can play all of them, but I don't really get the difference. Could you help me? Thanks
