      Alex Thorpe вполне нормально переводит ;-) можно ссылку на продажу данной басс гитары? И можно ли будет обращаться за советом, как приобрету? В интернете не особо много информации.... Спасибо за ответ

      Я купил это, потому что, покупая новый, я не уверен. Я попробую отправить Марка Рамсей из RMI Musical Instruments электронное письмо, чтобы узнать, может ли он помочь вам.

    So basically it's a 5 string bass with a 5 string guitar and you pick how low and high you want to play. Nice looking bass.

    • @AlexThorpe
      @AlexThorpe  2 роки тому +2

      Sort of! I’d say think of a 4 string bass, but add 2 lower strings and 4 higher strings. Tuning goes F#-B-(EADG)-C-F-Bb-Eb with the brackets being standard 4 string bass strings.

    Wow I like how you use the muted fretting with delay as a mix drum effect. Great job

    Love this instrument!
    Getting my China made 10 stringer
    Just two questions,
    How low is the lowest string compared to standard bass tuning (the standard E, which is an octave lower than standard E in guitar)
    Also does it work well with guitar based distortion?

    • @AlexThorpe
      @AlexThorpe  4 роки тому +2

      It is a pretty awesome instrument! The lowest string is 2 strings lower than standard bass. For example, on a 5 string you have the lower B string, and on mine it goes a string lower to F#. I prefer having the higher range so mine is tuned F# B E A D G C F Bb Eb. Some people choose to go a string lower yet, which is a C#. It requires ~.200 gauge strings depending on scale lengthen and preferred tension and some serious amplification to use properly at a louder volume.

  • @mityakiselev
    @mityakiselev 9 місяців тому +1

    What scale, action, and tension do these strings have? Is it generally worth it to play such an instrument through a bass amp or a guitar amp since some frequencies may be lost? Let's say hypothetically I have a 37'' to 32.5'' multiscale tuned from G#0 to E4, how different should the tension be? Is 45 to 32 pounds respectively a reasonable ratio? How hard would it be to press down these strings?

      Jake Downing thanks! This is in “standard” 10 string tuning, F#BEADGCFBbEb with .174-.009 kalium strings. What kind of 10 string did you get? They’re super fun!

      Alex Thorpe actually it’s called a Starshine 10 string bass. Could you tell me how to get all new strings for my bass? I went to Kalium’s website, but I don’t know what to get. Lol

    • @AlexThorpe
      @AlexThorpe  5 років тому +2

      Jake Downing that’s the string set I got. Well, last time I ordered strings the lowest was a .174 in the set but close enough. This is a pretty cheap made in China bass as well, it has some annoying quirks but it’s definitely playable. Word of warning when tuning the high E, take your time. Tune it up to an octave below, let it sit for 10-15 minutes. Tune it up another full tone and let it sit. A .009 tuned to Eb at 34” scale (which your bass is as well) is very near the limit of what that string can handle without snapping.

      Most effects work perfectly well on bass, only exception I can think of is maybe older synth style pedals that may have trouble tracking the lower notes
