Board to Death Ep. 9 - Michael Schuman (Queens of the Stone Age) | EarthQuaker Devices

[@AndreMuerteCocos]

Dude has probably the best rock (not metal) tone of these times. Admire his work as the heat of this rhythm section.

[@DiamondLifer]

Nope.

[@Fritz-the-Brat]

Absolutely true, Mikeys tone and playing is godlike

[@chronic_johnson_a.r.a.b]

I'd give that title to the guys in Failure. But QOTSA aren't far behind.

[@chadwickwright2833]

Nope. Listen to The Jesus Lizard. Best bass tone on the planet. Also one of the best bands ever!!

[@cactus-mcjacktus]

@@chronic_johnson_a.r.a.b Edwards’ bass tone is absolutely godlike. Love his tone.

[@patrickhunter]

Mikey is an absolute legend, love all the work he's done with QOTSA and his project Mini Mansions, too. Really love the insight this series brings, EQD!

[@RayyanKhanRayyanKhan]

@John Joseph bass strings

[@inrdwetrust]

@@RayyanKhanRayyanKhan Yeah. Four, I think.

[@futuresuperhiro]

i love when mikey talks about his basses and his equipment. he seems very genuine about it

[@Charlyfromthenuclearcity]

"Certain fingers on a certain bass, that's what create most of the sounds." That's so true, it's rarely about the extra gear in the end !

[@jazzblasterrr]

FSBass and yet there are so many of these videos.

[@anisopiavision]

Mikey shoes is such a badass! His bass tone is amazing and his backing vocals make them so full live… hell yeah!!

[@mckay91095]

The bass on Villains is my favorite Bass tone I've heard. Especially on "Domesticated animals" and "feet don't fail me now"

[@JuLealS]

I can't say how much I love this man

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

same

[@JHKNVY02]

The production IS amazing. Thank you for showing the pedal thumbnails. LOVE THAT FEATURE!

[@htomao]

Mikey's playing (as well as Josh's singing) finally came to the front on Villains, about damn time

[@BK-je7ww]

Every gear video from Queens is just a master class. Love it!

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

thank you!

[@thebelowaveragegamer2397]

Loved the bass on villains. A very underrated album.

[@denverm4x]

underrated by whom??

[@philipreedwallace]

Great bass player. Perfect fit for the QOTSA. All there members have been awesome musicians. Rock on . Yeah that C tuning makes my strings kinda AWESOME. 🤘🤘

[@counterclockwisefilms3814]

This was super helpful honestly as a QOTSA fan and a bass player this video is great

[@JDeloggia]

More Bass Boards please!

[@ericpalmer3588]

One of my favorite bass players. His punchy tones are awesome and I love the way the bass does expected things

[@MikeTaffet]

When I saw them in Portland ME Mikey came down to the crowd at the beginning of Song for the Dead and ended up leaning his full weight on me as I held him up. Which base is that?

[@fat69]

Mike Taffet That's a home run for me, holy shit!

[@KellyAnn2390]

I have a picture I found somewhere of that saved on my phone!

[@OleanderSmoothie]

at least second base for sure! ;D

[@philipreedwallace]

Cool story. 👍

[@jeffyneedsanap]

I say this everytime but these are the best videos. Ever.

[@superliebre8783]

Tremendo el sonido que logra en vivo ! un maestro Miguel

[@leonbode1748]

I think the moment he mentioned where they all use the EHX Mel9 is the interlude in Unreborn Again to imitate the sound of a string section

[@vs5617]

You got Troy and Mikey....I say Dean next....by then you betta convince Josh....ha

[@DiamondLifer]

Josh won’t give secrets away even though they aren’t secrets.

[@TheTeaTVI]

@@DiamondLifer Josh has a secret, he cannot say

[@ZaynAli416]

Thanks EQD for this

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

thanks for watching!

[@sachindevaraj]

what pino paladino is to Trent is like what Mikey is to Josh. they just fit

[@elijahleighton1390]

alright now im ready for my boi dean to show off his keyboard pedals

[@leonbode1748]

Kinda curious about the Digitech Nautila Chorus. he didnt mention it in the video

[@PedroMachadoBorges]

Happy Birthday Mike!

[@righteousdingo35]

9 and a half today!

[@caseynewton827]

Thanks for this EQD!

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

You're welcome! Thanks for watching, Casey!

[@pwrhr]

Dirt transmitter has a gate built in. It's dead quiet.

[@vilembesta1699]

mikey is the bass player, mojo man, back up singer in a villain ass rock band come true. would like to hear the solo bass tracks in the songs he made

[@roryhensen]

please lord say you filmed one of these with josh.

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Josh ain't got time for that. He did offer us flu shots, though, which was super nice of him. And no, I don't think it was code for drugs.

[@Swashbuckler9x]

I'd snort a fucking flu shot from Homme ;)

[@davidkronzek6305]

Great video! He forgot to mention the Digitech Nautila (Chorus/Flanger)

[@stepanhavel1945]

David Kronzek in which song does he use that?

[@vitorgvianna]

Štěpán Havel I would say Hideaway from Villains, he recorded the track with a fretless bass. Some say you can fake the sound of a fretless using a chorus pedal

[@gabrielalbo6911]

Does anybody have a clue on what settings he uses on the Dirt Transmitter?

[@orcabrain]

The Dean one, if there's a Dean one, is gonna be fuckin good

[@joaquincarlson4367]

If they got Josh Homme I would jizz my pants.

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

that seems a little extreme to me, but hey, what do i know?

[@MikeTaffet]

Also he’s pretty tight lipped about his gear.

[@T-Hawkeyes]

That is why they didn't get Josh Homme... ; )

[@wlfwrk]

he used to be but not really anymore

[@Fritz-the-Brat]

Regarding EQD pedals: Josh uses the tentacle ;)

[@Reprodestruxion]

Cv control via the René sequencer

[@chromedroner]

WIRES ON FIRE

[@Vishnu-xn4vx]

In wich song they use the Mell9? :'(

[@suttonlea8366]

Un Reborn Again

[@ExhumeForFreedom]

What about the Nautila?

[@honkyheath]

Who's using those Peavys at 4:27?

[@Fritz-the-Brat]

Josh was using those on the villains tour

[@alerema8522]

Someone knows in which song he use the Mel9 from EHX?

[@jager9022]

Yeah definitely Un Reborn, but I remember hearing some of them use it in Feet Don’t Fail Me too

[@jhartbby4908]

dean, dean, dean, dean, dean, dean,

[@Mark-xw2rx]

Nick Oliveri and his screams 🤟

[@freq9939]

What amp does he use?

[@nichtseingefallen]

Ghastly Ghoul Fender Super Bassman and Guild Maverick

[@broccoliwoccoli4262]

I love a fuckin gate

[@AlexanderSupertramp1]

song at 0:15?

[@matsewals2740]

Domesticated Animals

[@finn4790]

can i get uhhh josh homme board to death?

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

uhhhhhh yeah i dunno

[@Swashbuckler9x]

There's a bigger chance of Hendrix resurrecting hahahaahahahaha (or res-erecting, if you will)

[@kaitbarrick6571]

Anyone else lonely as shit today? All day KZbin wormhole. Damn I'm sad.

[@jodiallardice1500]

But what about JJJJJOOOOOSSSSSHHHHH!?!?!?!?!?

[@seb5542]

There are loads of videos online about the pedals and setup he uses.

[@HornedBee]

didnt know andy samberg plays bass

[@derkabronen]

who needs a pedal ? hahaa... it's an addiction man, admit it... you have pedal problems
