Ha ha - no! Even if I had $4K to spend on a bass, I don't like the Jag-style as much as the Jazz-type Black Clouds. What I really want is MISA's pedal board!
The MV shows MISA is all over the neck. True the underlying progression is being followed and the flow can be easily replicated by a relatively novice musician but if you were to isolate her bass you know even competent musicians would have difficulty. Congratulations on the new bass and welcome to the 5 string side.
BESTIE grows on you if you listen to it more than twice. It’s all about the twin vocals and the lyrical sentiment. They dialed back the music to make it more accessible for normal people. I would love to see if you could figure out the bass lines to ENDLESS STORY, the live version.
For sure - I'll have to give Bestie some more spins. Endless Story would be a good one - will have to compare Yokohama to Shibuya and see if there's any difference. I'd also have to see if I can get through it without tearing up - it gets me every time! 😭
I got a 5 string not too long ago also. It's nice to directly play downtuned guitar stuff. Plus octave or fifth down is right there to play and those low notes sound so rich.
Thanks for the bass breakdown PD. You weren't tempted to spend an absolute fortune trying to get your hands on a MISA signature Black Cloud?

Thanks PD. Nice to see you back. Looking forward to "Influencer." (Just FYI, MV audio was a bit low.) Stay cool!
Yes, and bass was too loud/peaking. Will have to talk to Quality Control team and straighten them out 😉
That was fun, thanks! Have fun with the 5-string.
Thanks and thanks for watching!

Indeed! Thanks for checking it out!

SAIKI’s new hair cut is based on an ancient style from the Heian era. Today it’s called Hime (Princess) cut.
Cool fact - thanks!

Yes, not needing to re-tune is handy. I always played my 4-string in drop-D, so getting used to all strings tuned in 4th keeps messing me up!
As a bass player n maidiac u get an instant sub
Much appreciated!
You get a sub for the "Rage For Order" vinyl in the background, lol.
Hey, I'll take it - many thanks! I'm a long-time Q-ryche fan!
I see Queensryche's Rage for Order in the background. Cool.
I'm a long-time fan. "Mindcrime" one of my favourite albums of all time!
@@pdwilsen Mine, too. What a fantastic album.
ever tried the pick action
Yes - I use a pick often, though I've liked the new bass with just fingers for the most part. Will see how it evolves!
5 strigs!
I tried a 5 string, the 5th string just threw me off.
