      What strings would you recommend to a beginner bass player?

    • @BeholdenToTheRiff
      @BeholdenToTheRiff  3 роки тому +3

      Good question! Getting the proper string thickness (gauge) depends on your bass tuning. If you keep your bass in E standard tuning, try (50-105) gauge. If you keep your bass in a lower tuning you will need thicker strings. For C-Standard tuning, I use (55-110 or 115). If tune down once in a while, keeping a lighter string gauge on your bass is fine - they might be a little floppy, but as a beginner it’s more important to play and have fun🤘

    Hey Jered! So, thers a song from Electric Wizard called 'The Outsider'. From the Let Us Prey album. I have a doubt in the tabs. Like, there isn't any tab for this song in the internet, and I guess I figured it out. 5~~ - 3 ~~ - 1. I guess. Its just three simple notes. I guess it is in the C - F A# - D# tuning. What do you think? Just want the opinion of a master of tabs like you.

    • @BeholdenToTheRiff
      @BeholdenToTheRiff  3 роки тому +1

      Great question! C-Standard is if you start with E-Standard and tune all the strings down 2 steps (CFBbEb). Drop C is if you start with E Standard, tune the E down 1 step to D (Drop D tuning) then tune all the strings down 1 step (CGEbF)🤘

  • @mr.bluenotedoobop
    @mr.bluenotedoobop 3 роки тому +1

    Noob question, I normally play in standard tuning and use high tension strings (DR Low riders) and have my action low. When I go to C standard tuning, strings become super floppy, which leads me to believe it would need to be set up for that tuning. If I get a second bass but set up specifically for C standard tuning, then are the strings still going to be floppy?

    • @cactus-mcjacktus
      @cactus-mcjacktus 3 роки тому +3

      yes, they will still be floppy. You need to get a set of heavier strings. Some people use a 110-50 set, some use the GHS 115-50, some people use a 5 string set and throw away the lowest string. All depends on preference.

      For a while I used to raise the bridge saddles whenever down tuning was required. The higher action compensates for the floppy strings pretty well and it’s a great way to temporarily tune down before you get your next bass🤘
