love when guys play down to earth basses....
A true testament that it’s ‘all in your hands’. Thanks bruh!
Because of your sound, I bought a Jaguar in Red - I love it and its not expensive at all. Made in Indonesia but no complaints about the quality of the neck or the body.
That's freaking awesome! That red one is so cool
Awesome and very accurate breakdown...My 1st bass Fender Jazz passive electronics 1977 I still have the bass... Its in your hands knowing the function of the knobs enhances your sound(tone)!!
G'day Daric and thanks so much for your advice as well as the head phone advice. Mate, you are so helpful with this video and all your other videos as well. Keep up the good work mate and thank you so much
Thnxs D, I own a jaguar and did not know the first thing about the dials other than experimenting with them to find their purpose. Keep up the awesome teaching , I look forward to subscribing to your lessons. 😎
I dig your style. Very nice
Thank you. I am a beginner and your tutorial on the knobs just raised my eyebrows! I didn't know, now I know.
Daric, you have made things crystal clear for me. I recently purchased a Squire j bass. Thank you so much for your help!
I have this bass and I play with ppl with 1,000$ dollar Marcus millers and I sound just as good
Amazing bass honestly
I found it best to just use a touch of the boost and leave it. I also put a blend dial in instead of separate volumes controls. It's a great bass but the bridge pup is weak so I replaced that as well. Now it kills.
I’ve just ordered a 5 string one in red because of you 👍🏼
Thank you!!
Those Squire Jazz bass reissues, specifically the unfinished natural wood ones are also incredibly good for around $450.
Good beginner bass.... I play the STERLING STINGRAY.... your good player
THIS IS A REAL GOOD BASS TONE. THANKS FOR SHARE :)
Very helpful thank you
I was in a pinch and bought that exact model bass at a pawn shop for really cheap - to my surprise it proved itself to be an amazing instrument.
Hey Daric , i enjoy the vids and thanks for sharing your expertise , I would like to know whats your video recording set up for doing your bass lessons online on youtube , and what would you recommend for starting to record vids from within the system vs. basic recording with the laptop mic or speakers .
thanks.
Do you think you would mind showing us a video on setting EQ for our bass amps?
Sure
I got Ibanez with both the pick-ups. I had same thoughts on those knobs. Thanks for clearing my doubts!
Can you do another tutorial on Hartke HD50 amp? I bought it recently but couldn't get the perfect sound as this. I know it's not that hard setting three knobs, but I got shows to perform soon. Need to get perfect sound on stage for feeling. I like more p-bass with j-bass blended! Guitar knobs is on my fingertips but the amp knobs won't be! Help if anyone has good tips.
Thanks all groovehackers 🤘🏻
Can make a video more about how to set eq on the bass amp..tq
Sounds great, that an old set of those dunlop super brights?
I have the same bass in the sunburst color. I love this bass because of the wide range of tone options. I tend to keep my neck pickup at 100%, my bridge pickup at 25%, and my active control rolls between 0 & 25% depending on the venue. I play with flatwounds on an Ampeg BA-115.
Man get Some Daddario Strings Bro U can't go wrong
I don't use the active EQ on my ESP D-6 at all. I leave the knobs centered and get the tone I want with my hands or a pick.
I like active basses because of EQ. I use blend knob to get 40/60 in favour of bridge pickup, boost a bit of bass and mids and cut some treble. That is my sound.
Domagoj Oinky what is EQ
@@urlmellow It is a device that lets you boost or cut bass, mid or treble frequencies. On a bass you have 2 or 3 knobs that let you do that.
HI Daric, am from South Africa and i would like to get that bass soon ,ist possible to get it ? i see the price on amazon is not Bad like at the store .
Another decent "entry" bass is the Ibanez Talman bass. I have the 4 string (ivory and nicknamed "butter spoon") and and 5 string (black and nicknamed "tar baby" 'cause you can't put it down!) models. Their quality seems to far exceed their cost.
Hello, I'm a beginner in bass. I'm looking for new bass and I think this bass is good. I have a question, could this bass played passive/without battery?
I have to say your my favorite bass player bruh and another great sounding bass is the Sire check it out.
Julius Thomas I have a sire v7 5 string for sale. If you or someone you know is interested.
@@terryacosta7424 do you still have it and how much are you wanting to sell it for and will you ship it
@@cherriodavis1122 no I do not . Sold it last year
Daric are your amp settings in the middle?
Please tell me u also make HX stomp presets 🙏🙏🙏
I'm bought a bass amp for electric guitar because it is said to help improve quality of the sound, however how do you tune it for an electric guitar
What does it mean if you have a EQ modern active bass
Halo...should the bass player have a bass effect when performing?i only using bass EQ stompbox.
I am a very beginner bass player I have an Ibanez long neck I really enjoy watching some of your lessons but I've always noticed that you should turn up the volume on your base your voice is louder than the base can barely hear the notes that you play and for us beginners it would help to mention which fret and which string for each note keep up the good work thanks again for your dedication
Thanks for that Derrick, I’ll keep that in mind. But for this particular lesson you may want to use headphones for it to hear the difference of eq. Thanks again 👍🏾
I have an Ibanez SR 300 DX with 3 knobs and I can't figure it out at all.
What most people don´t know is that the precision pickup is actually a humbucker. the combination of the 2 coils produce that effect..and the awsome sound of the P.
Interesting. If the P is a humbucker, then does the single coil jazz pup introduce hum?
@@mezatron I think it depends on the shielding, but on my Squier PJ bass I get a bit of noise if I turn up the J pickup all the way.
hey im a new bassist can you show us how you set your eq settings on your actual bass amp please ?
Every time I play my amp settings are flat and i use the bass the tweak the eq
What amp and speaker used
I have the squier affinity pj bass, can you get the same sound out of this?
Tom van der wulp yeah. I own both basses. The only real difference in the two basses electronically is the low end boost circuit.
Not to be a critic but the title of this vid was “how to EQ your bass”, yet you never touched upon EQ. The title should have been “understanding bass pickup knobs”.
His e string also had a raddling problem 😂
Bass pick up knobs control the EQ of the bass. It’s called eq 101. You first control the eq of your bass by adjusting the knobs…… this is for beginners. So in that sense, I apologize. I should have said for beginners only….You have to start somewhere. You must haven’t seen my course where I go in depth on the frequency ranges the the knobs include, which may I add, Is different for each bass and or pick up sets. Thanks for the critique though, I’ll keep it in mind.
And thanks for the comment @the peaks not sure what’s funny but thanks for informing me.
How do I set me eq to not sound as melodic I like metal and it doesn't sound as melodic unless it's like a netal band trying to be melodic.
you can also always upgrade cheaper basses with better pickups and they sound much better
😊
Great video for beginners, but this is not per se EQ’ing the bass which was what I was looking for…
Hey man how are you doing? I like the way you look and I'm not even gay! Very cool appearance. What is your location? I am from the Netherlands. Thanks for this video, it explaines a lot. Keep on groovin! Greetings, Paul
Lol stalker
I buy it in Guitar Center! $200.00
right ?
Hey, dude! It seems to me that you're using flatwounded strings, aren't you?
You also want to eq to the room that your in.
How do you get that quacky sound like the bass is getting squeezed😂
Lower your action as low as it goes w/o fret buzz
P & J PICK UP
Joe like Peanut Butter and Jelly
