The addition of other musicians and especially live acoustic drums is very refreshing
Agree!
I love love love Love LOVE these recent jams where you guys have a whole band to showcase the bass.
i like these full band intros. good job
They are killing it at the moment! Glad you're enjoying the videos.
Completely different presentation style and as equally enjoyable to watch.
Watching genuine musicians reviewing instruments never grows old.
The band is growing, can't wait for the horn player!
If your instrument has a spit valve, you blow.
Thats It - this Bass player convinced me - I'm buying a Fender Jazz Bass in 2020 !!! Happy Holidays & Thanks for making me start the New Year with another Bill to be Paid !!! - Great Demo fellas.
Michael Caz what color are you going for?
@@moose5206 I really want: white with rosewood neck, but I will play several & choose the one with the Best Playability. I recently played 7 Suhr's. I wanted white or black, & left with a Tobacco-Burst with Lollar Vintage Dirty Blonde's = Phenomenal Sounding Guitar.
Fender have done something really special with the ultra basses. I know they have to reinvent the brand from year to year but this time they really have made their basses even better if that was possible
better? how? they literally removed string through option which distinguishes(almost) USA made Fenders from the rest, and they removed trussrod wheel from Elite & they used the same preamp as Elite. "even better", how?
I’m taken bass lessons and I got my first bass for Christmas
Right choice.
I'm soooo glad that y'all decided to include bass players and bass guitars on your channel Captain! Well done!
My Friday is complete, you lads are back and with some outstanding new Fender kit.
I like the Texas Tea color, American Ultra basses are beautiful they all sounds clear.
Nathan! The "tech talk" is very important to many of us, as long as Lee doesn't get too carried away! 👍👍👍
That blue cobra color looks so outstanding! I love it!!!
Now we are (bass) talking ! Very great guys, so lovely... so groovy. Love it. Of course I have a GREAT respect for Nathan, a musician I'd like to meet one day, it is always impressive to see those lovely guys in real life. Huge huge respect for them since the '80s. Great bass review as always I should say. Cheers.
That black jazz bass with the gold ano pickguard and black binding... So awesome looking. Never been much of a jazz bass fan, but DANG that is a hot lookin bass.
that one is always sold out so is the White with Maple neck P-Bass, always sold out good choise
It’s called Texas tea. It’s actually brown like a glass of iced sweet tea.
When they hit the chord change 0:25, it kind of reminded of "So Into You" by Atlanta Rhythm Section. Maybe I just wanted it to sound like that, because I've always liked the song.
I'm impressed with the tone. If the build quality is as good, they've got a winner. Shouldn't have to go to Japan for a good jazz bass. Cheers to Fender
I just bought the new Mocha Sunburst Fender American Ultra Precision Bass, its Off The Hook!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I got the ultra burst P bass. Pretty amazing.
OH! I didn't know Jemaine Clement was working at Andertons! Tasty keyboard playing Jemaine! Business Time! :D
Holy hell this is the tastiest playing I’ve ever heard in a review
The p-bass seems to sit well in the mix, but my goodness...that Texas Tea Jazz bass is beautiful!
The mocha burst is beautiful too...can’t lose.
0:45 I love how in this lil' segment Lee uses the 5th string only as a thumb rest. xD
I use it as a strap.
That Texas Tea version of that Jbass looks perfect. Do they come in alternate colours?
5:05 GOOOOOOOD MORNING GAMERS
wow! Great intro!I heard all the differences in the guitars and drums in that, especially the vocal differences!
SO Fender you are going to take away ay string through option, my neck adjustment wheel (which should have been added in 1984 ) and my ebony fretboard and tell me this is upgrade ?
yes. I've owned the elite and ultra. The Ultras are better. String through makes zero tonal difference and the adjustment wheel was not as good as Sadowsky and Music Man.
Ultras absolutely SLAY the Elites.
in what way.. features ?..as far as tone wise I'm not so sure it's heads and shoulders above the Elite..
@@jasonbafile bull crap! ...Elites were good. Ultras aren't better. Slight difference = preference. A bit of cost cutting that's it. Weaker colors.
That Mocha Burst is beautiful
I got the blue jazz Ultra for Christmas. I’m not a super skilled bass player by any stretch but it’s quite lovely for home recording. I had been hinting around for a basic Yamaha bass because I was sick of using keyboard bass for songs. Then that thing showed up on Black Friday. Holy balls I’m loving it. All DI - no bass amp.
Remember guitar players: a bass guitar is NOT a 6 string. So don’t play it like one. 😀
How much it was?
Kdmsh 15 $1500 American dollars.
Love the white PJ bass
Impossible to find they are always on back order
The bass sounds incredible ! Why do the new Pro Fender Jazz Basses not have the active/passive switch?
Helps justify the price difference 🤣 not having the option to go active/passive is one of the biggest scams in the industry 🤣
lee's feelin them basses
You guys have a Vegas lounge act going on! Great review...
I have this exact Jazz in Texas Tea. Awesome piece!!!!
Love the jam at the beginning
Awesome review guys… great to hear the basses in a real live situation.
If I could only get a jazz bass like that in butterscotch blonde. But the Texas Tea is amazing with that pickguard.
I just sold my Fender 19' Jazz 5 for an Ernie Ball and I'm never looking back. I've been rather disappointed by Fender's recent items. I personally feel that they lack the quality their competition provides. The case was not closing properly upon arrival and Fender had to send me a new one - within a month of playing, I had to replace the jack, and Fender didn't offer to fix it although I saw it as a factory defect - the 9v ejector on the back kept getting caught on something internally. The list goes on with other minor grievances and small annoyances, but I wouldn't have expected as many of them from a brand new, two thousand plus dollar bass.
I totally agree. The new "Vintera" range have had lots of criticism re quality control too. Fender have definitely dropped the ball.
Danish Pete's Gibson 335 in the glorious "Danish Red" finish. Gibson should make that a thing.
I used to have a black PJ with gold pickguard. Had to sell it, man I wish I didn't that sucker was mint.
I own an Elite Fender Jazz bass & an Fender Elite P-bass. For me, great instruments!
0:01 Maple JB
0:24 Rose JB V
0:47 Maple PB
1:10 Maple JB
It would be awesome to see some of the Fender V strings demo'd and actually discussed. Hearing a snippet of the high end of the neck on a bass that features extra LOW range doesn't quite touch upon it's full value and capabilities! Aside from that, this is killer!
Omg such a sweet sound!! So smooth! But punchy enough for me too!
Great Playing! Love the accent, (it's an accent to me) it's like getting the review from Nigel Tufnel!!
Awesome intro, great review!
We need more full band jams.
Bass and drums were so locked in and it was amazing!
13:15 oh yeah~ slap that bass~
Allright I have more chance on finding the corona cure by myself than getting any of these basses for christmas and/or my birthday
Same. Maybe in the next 3 - 4 years i will be able to buy one of those
@@stefaneduard8169 if you source around, you might even get it earlier. I got mine at below retail price from Reverb. The seller is a guitar shop in Los Angeles.
Love it , great job at showcasing these basses! And nice groovin" boys!
Home run, Fender ⚡️🔥⚡️
8:42 that demo sold me on it. sheesh
The best bass review I’ve ever seen. Excellent
I hate being broke.
These videos are much more enjoyable to watch than the guitar videos
dreaming is for free bro. be happy!
@@dominicmcmahon4798 I do alot of free dreaming.
You and me both my friend I tried one out the other day the 5 string jazz ultra sounds really nice
NARC the new ultras are beautiful and I’m in the same boat. Luckily my local guitar shop doesn’t mind me coming in playing for as long as I like
this is gonna be my next fender!
You guys are so much fun…
That snare's attitude is more confident than me
Awesome drum sound ! Sweet groove everybody !!
This is the video that sold me on it
After waiting +15 years I am finally buying you
A bit of vulfpeck inspiration this morning? sounds great!
Not minimalist enough tho
@@plaash7396 really? it reminded me quite alot of Soft Parade or Fugue State.
Great reviews! You are my go to two to compare the few. Thank you 😂
Which one is the best: Fender Elite or Ultra vs Ibanez Adam Nitti vs Musicman Bongo HH6 vs MTD 535FL?
Tengo un jazz bass delux mexicano y la verdad que me gusta mucho el sonido es un buen bajo pero últimamente eh pensado en cambiarlo por un ultra, valdrá la pena cambiarlo en cuestión de sonido , y comodidad ? Tal vez si tenga mejor construcción y calidad en el material pero realmente el sonido es mucho mejor para invertir y gastar el triple de lo que vale el que tengo ?
I'm sold on the ultra 5 string j bass, 💯💯.
These guys can do both guitars and bass demos. Im mainly a guitarist but the all about bass series is more enjoyable 😅
I’ve had a 2006 MIM active J Bass with the same controls as the new Ultra for several years. I think I paid $500 in 2010 for it. I just bought a new American Pro Series II J bass. I couldn’t wait to compare it to my Mexican bass. They sounded essentially the same. I know the new one is passive but still don’t know wether to be happy or sad. I was excited to buy a serious bass since I’ve never paid more than $500-600 for a bass and expected a big improvement in sound. I can return the new one to Fender. Haven’t decided yet. Trying to justify paying $1800 for a new bass that sounds the same as my old bass. I know, nice problem to have.
Resale my man Resale $ for USA Fenders the older they get the more they sell for
18v preamp, deepened cutaways, darkened neck woods...
Did they just pick up a Stingray Special and do the same thing?
I'll stick with my Elite P Bass thanks. Its string through body, truss rod adjustment wheel and Macassar Ebony fingerboard make it a better bass. Also they have the same pre amp. No brainer.
I also have an elite P but recently got an Ultra Jazz Bass. Very similar but I prefer the bridge on the Ultra. Its a High Mass bridge while my Elite P has a cheapo vintage style Bridge. Although I like the string thru design. They changed the truss wheel because of alot of user complaints. I never had an issue and I like it but its not a big deal either way. I rarely adjust the truss rod. Maybe twice a year due to humidity.
I want the ultra, but I love how they have a passive tone , it sux the elite does not have that feature. It's nice to go passive, especially if you are doing a recording session and the engineer wants a passive bass, im an active kinda guy but the option is nice,
The Ultra doesn't have that hideous notch at the end of the fretboard.
Ultra>Elite
Drummer is a freaking machine!
Off topic... what seats are you using. Those things look super comfy! All day playability if you will :) Cheers M8's!
You guys are great!! Thanks for this review.
When are you going to tour? 😉
Maybe it's just me because I've not heard any difference in tone between the Ultra and Elite....oh well ..nice pocket playing though.. I did enjoy that..
You guys should review the new line of Modulus Graphite! From their Funk Unlimited, J Bass, and Quantum!
Can.you guys turn the bass up in future videos. Ive got my volume up at full and i can just hear it. Thanks.
I'm always asking that,
I love how 97 percent of bass demos are funk, yet inversely about 3 percent of actual music is funk
Now that's something we need to change...
@@andertons Don't you threaten me!
Just add different styles.....I loves da funk !
@@andertons please no
If you think mainstream is the worlds music you are wrong. This music is alive all over the world still
Love the black ultra jazz,but why can't it come with the Rosewood board ? My preference anyway. Seems Fender want to limit their sales . May just go for a MARUSZCZYK and can spec to what you want for less money . 💰
Lee Is Da Man, and I don't even like active basses! xD
Man what a sweet jam, quick question for Nathan and Lee. What basses / rigs / pedals do you both own and use? I know we saw Lee's Genz-Benz cab a while back.
la basse noire (noir/marron/réglisse légèrement pailleté) de droite avec le pickguard "doré" est exactement identique (couleurs) que la version JB DeLuxe Montego dans les années 2000/2010 et elle existait aussi en version PB...
great bass playing man
great demo, guys!
it' interesting how when switch from P to jazz bass, the Jazz bass disappears in the Mix... engineers always go towards P :)
nope p bass just stands out in the mix assuming all setting were the same all through and through
Two grand. Sorry, I'll leave this for the pros and the wealthy. Well, I suppose that's who they are for, anyway. Great playing, great video. I love the ensemble!
Yeah, man, and that's too bad :(
Did you get one yet?
Yeah. Six of them.
Why no Ultra (or PJ in general) Precision with 5 strings?
In the 1950s, Leo Fender talked to lot of musicians to see what they wanted in a guitar. I wonder if the Fender company does that today yet?
Probably not.
No.
we need this backing track, please!
But are they better than a Sire V9/V10?
better than a V9. a V10, and now the super dog P10 smokes them all, including MusicMan with their roasted necks.... A 1600 dollar Sire bass is about a 4000 Dollar US bass.
Would have appreciated some type of a slap demo. Maybe next time....
Music Man usually gets all the praise for their finishes... but honestly, these new Fender finishes are way better in my opinion. Music Man's are a little over the top and too sparkly. These new Fenders just seem to glow and have great little subtleties in the flaking when under stage lighting. They're just amazing to look at - and don't sound too bad either.
Do the ultra jazzes have 60’ or 70’ pickup spacings?
60s
Were can I buy tickets for this band?
Sick tone
Does somebody know why the trusrod wheel went?
Reminds me of that Sweedish group Face of Bass.
Awesome video!
I would sell my kidney...
even both of them
Maybe, you can earn enough as you play?
Who then will play the bass?
Adorei os baixos
Am I the only bass player who hate everything that isn't a passive 4 string? The only features of these that I DO like is the heel joint and high mass bridge
I just bought a white Player P and changed the bridge with the high mass one. Only about 30 pounds or 35 euro's :-). No active bass for me.
It is passive it has separate pu, for passive and bottom stack is for active...you have both get over it
I wouldn't say that I played bass if I was standing next to these guys. I might say "Hey !!!" "Could you guys use a hand with the equipment ???"
