Wow, didn’t expect this type of video, but I’m so happy to hear your thought process and opinions on things. Here’s to a new year of hearing more from Rufus!
for the sound clips, do you happen to remember what settings you used for each plug-in (or a guess at least)? I can see where the low cut is roughly. But I would love to know settings for the avalon DI, Comp, Gate, and darkglass. I also use logic so I have the same stock plug ins!
i'll try to describe in words 🙈 u2 is likely tone 2 with high cut... comp is likely min attack with max release gate... probably around -20-30db darkglass is likely 75% or more blend with 0% drive 💭 (hope it helps, and here's the full cover: ua-cam.com/video/-mBialONaiA/v-deo.html
I LOVEE the tone of your jazz bass. Do you have the original listing which might specify the exact pickups it has by any chance? or do you know or have any way to check? I have a lefty CIJ JB62 RI but the sound isn't quite as grindy as yours
I know this is kind of a silly question but how can you afford these basses plus other gear. Those instruments cost thousands. Sorry if this is personal, I'm just curious! Those things are beautiful and sound great.
As a long time bass player, your j bass when using the pick is the best aggressive bass sound I’ve ever heard. I had no idea it was a 500 dollar bass, I was thinking I had to buy a 2000 all American j bass to get that sound lol. I guess that dark glass does a lot
Yea it’s a nice deal in terms of sound (but it might just be one of those “better ones” out of the spectrum… also the hardware and neck stability doesn’t feel quite as sturdy imo
@@구호연-d6d hm… nothing wrong with the z3, I just prefer something with parts that can be replaced easier (like… I can swap the bridge on the afterburner to something else anytime but I can’t on the z 🙈
@@bluz1n oh!! Yea… I do all the effects in DAW because It’s easier for patrons to replicate the sound they hear here if I used plugins instead of hardware 💭
Great video mate! I always enjoy watching your Bass covers, especially the Band Maid ones! It just makes learning the whole thing so much more fun, plus your production is very good, which makes it real nice to watch the videos. 頑張って!
@@RufusMann Absolutely agreed! Their songs always make me happy even when I'm not feeling too well + you can see and hear the progression they went through in the last years. May I ask which Band Maid song is your favorite?
So, here it is! This is an up to date list of my bass gear / bass rig for 2021.
If you have any questions, comment below! I'll try and answer them!
These type of videos are so cool! Gives us kind of an insight on your thought process.
thank you! glad it's useful to you 🙈
@@RufusMann Thanks for making it!

My man! These videos are awesome. Dingwall makes me moist!
Thank you! Dingwalls are nice indeed 🙈🙈
have you ever tried a 6 string dingwall? also cant wait for the mystery 3rd bass 👀
Yes but can’t foresee myself needing one, can’t wait to use it for this channel too when there’s a chance 🙈🙈
It's so interesting to know a little close your work. Feliz año nuevo, Rufus. Thans for all your content
P.D. I love your hair ♡
Thank you so much 🙌🙌

Hm…. I think they took the listing off already but it should be original pickups from what I remember
Yes! Toshiya is sick!
Agree! 🙈
@@RufusMann Come to think of it, yeah, you really nailed toshiya's thump bro!
Whoa, you got rid of the purple Dingwall? I loved that one!
Yup, sold it 👾
He stopped recording with it about an year ago I think 😅
Thanks for sharing your setup along with your reasons for it, helps a lot.
you're welcome, glad it helped 🙌
What happend to your dingwall z3 bass?
Sold it 👾
@@RufusMann Is it rude to ask how much you sold it for?
Hi bro, you make amazing videos! I found you a couple months ago and im hooked since 😅 keep rockin bro
Thank you! Glad you liked it, see you around 👾
@@RufusMann omg you replied! Thanks bro

Not sure about Tim but I saw Ali had one in one of their rig rundowns too 🙌
You are awesome man!
Thank you!
Saw some of your videos played with a Sadowsky 5 strings. What about this one? Really liked it, and think it was a US built one
That was borrowed from a friend, so it’s not mine 🙈
Thank you for this video,Which means a lot for me🙏
Thank you for watching! Glad to help 💪🏻

Sounds like youre using the compressor as a huge input boost to the B7K ??
Yea, and almost like a limiter too 🤐
what happened to your other bass's? i loved the look of the blue jazz bass
Some are sold, and some are on sell at the moment 👾
@@RufusMann what was the model of the blue jazz bass I would love to try to get one like it in the feature
@@user-rs7tv5lq5v fender masterbuilt jazz bass by Vincent van trigt 🙌
I think an interesting video for next year would be a progression through ALL the basses you've gone through. >:3c
hm... can't remember all the basses i've had throughout the years tbh 😂🙈

Rufus, what are the specs on your MacBook?
Using the standard 2022 14” M1 MacBook Pro at the moment 💭
Hey bro!!! Where is your dingwall z3??
Sold it 👾
If you don't mind, can I find out why you sold the higher model, z3, and bought ABZ? I'm also thinking about ordering Z3.

I remember that you used to go with a Darkglass cabinet. Don’t you use this nowadays?
I never used Darkglass cabs, only their cab sim 🙈
@@RufusMann ops my bad! I mean the darkglass amp, the Microtubes I think.

Hi Rufus,
What's the color finish on your AB1?
Hm… I don’t know what they’d call it but it’s referenced based on musicman’s starry night finish 🌃
Can you do cover Seek and Destroy by Metallica using Jazz Bass?
