Cryptopsy - Phobophile [bass cover] Cort B5

[@colinboschma]

i recently bought this bass because of your videos, its my first bass so thank you for putting the B5 in the video title otherwise i wouldve bought a shitty one, anyways this cover is fucking dope as hell

[@TomMarello]

Thank you, I'm truly honored. Few months ago I've bought Schecter Stiletto also, but somehow I still prefer this B5, mainly beacuse of its perfect balance and its pickups really work great with my pedalboard setup

[@TomMarello]

Are you satisfied with it?

[@colinboschma]

@@TomMarello yes its a great bass especially for the price, im super satisfied

[@DanielBautistadeCabo]

Awesome bass sound! I would say that the test have been passed :)

[@TomMarello]

Thanks!

[@WoodsboroGhost]

What are your treble and bass settings?

[@TomMarello]

All EQ knobs on bass are at noon and pickup blend is 50:50, but i have few pedals (check description) in signal chain, each with its own EQ settings

[@tchintchie]

New Bass?

[@TomMarello]

Yes, I already have its 'next of kin' (B4) and was(and still am) super-satisfied with it, so I've complemented it with is bigger brother recently

A pick would make it more definitive.

[@TomMarello]

Eric Langlois would disagree.

Got your link from your comment in that German guy's post, where you asked question about picks.
The best old school metal bassists, use picks.

[@TomMarello]

I'm kidding. I used to play with a pick years ago, but found out that it makes me limited dynamics wise so i turned to fingerstyle exclusively, knowing that i'll have to sacrifice some definition in faster plucking parts

[@TomMarello]

I'm aiming towards varieties of approaches to playing
(not just metal shredding) like those in this clip ua-cam.com/video/oI9eKBQrhSo/v-deo.html
