I think you mean the bottom 4 strings. The deepest sounding strings are known as the "bottom" strings on a guitar. Not being rude, just telling you as I am a guitar player.
They said the first string. The first string is the tiny one and it didn't get slapped. If someone played slap on tiny strings like that they would definitely break. But if they meant the fifteenth they should've said so.
I/m sorry but are you actually blind ? In the info he wrote that those cant be played cuz they ware to damn fat man. just look at the vid they look like they are not suposed to be played.
PeruN true, at first I was hoping he'd get to the lower strings, then when I saw them I knew they couldn't be played, look how close together they are!
BananaCollectiveTV The chromatic scale is still a scale. It still would be in a key, just would include accidentals, which is very common in every genre of music. Remember, there are only 12 different notes that exist in present time western music, and a Diatonic Scale (The most common form of scale you'll find in western music.) has 7 of them. Which means only 5 different notes will sound wonky at any given time. And wonky can be good, depending on how it's used. A, Bb, B, C, Db, D, Eb, E, F, Gb, G, Ab - That's it, no more. Everything beyond this is just a repeat of the sequence. Hell, even popular songs such as Master of Puppets uses every single one of these 12 notes. The opening riff is literally just running down these notes one by one. Maybe not every octave the guitar has available, but does include one somewhere.
abandonedcookie62 Technically, anyone (if they have working arms and hands 😂) even if they don’t play guitar can play any guitar... Just don’t have to make music.
Very impressive, but can you re-write classical music to make it funky, tune your bass in meantone temperament, and play on a guitar with bass strings?
I’ve been waiting for someone else to mention Chapman Sticks in a lot of these UA-cam guys’ guitar and bass videos. Every time I search Chapman Stick all that comes up is Tony Levin or another person who clearly PLAYS the Stick. None where any of these bigger UA-cam guitar and bass people try it. This one guy has this ridiculous “guitar” that basically is a Stick, but for some reason a guitar maker made it and it’s tuned differently so I guess it’s not. ????? People apparently have a lot of disposable time, money and resources.

Strings are often remembered as "EADG(Be)"... ie "Eddy Ate Dynamite, Goodbye Eddy"... That's how most people are thought at the beginning. Also, the notes advance in that direction... Pretty sure anyone would agree that E goes before F (etc), so if that's the direction the notes go (upwards in pitch), that's how you should view the strings... For those reasons, I always thought it was backwards to call the top strings the last. I do know people do that, but that's just because of tradition, and it defies all logic.
Viktor Albrant he did use one of the thick ones at the end and you could hear how low the frequency was, he even added a special effect to shake the video as a joke to emphasize how slow and shaky the wavelengths are. Really hard to hear with the human ear
A standard 5 string bass has a B that is less than an octave higher than the lowest note the human ear can perceive/identify. Any string lower than that B would just be muddle vibrations. I'm guessing the lowest strings don't even sound like anything.
I am not sure if 15 strings is enough... what do you think?
