Double Drop Metalcore - Harley Benton Bass VI

[@tobiaswellner1891]

it's just getting heavier and heavier day by day, it's beyond my imagination of metal mixing and composition

[@checkthedist]

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!

[@DespiseChoChugz]

This guy is the real deal, it’s like he has endless riffs in storage, insane! Fckn love your content man

[@checkthedist]

Trying to do my best, thanks for your support!

[@buzz_cooksey]

String rattle and ultra low chugs go together like PB and J! Love that Joshua Travis-y type guitar tone a lot!

[@checkthedist]

@@buzz_cooksey thanks for watching man!

sounds like when i had my 24.75" 6 string in drop f on 16-90 gauge strings. good times, good shit

[@checkthedist]

Seems like a nice idea for a new video, I was doing 14-74 for drop E on a standard scale, but 90 is interesting 🤔 Thanks for watching!

[@tfwnoyandere]

@@checkthedist to be specific it was an open minor tuning, f-c-f-g#-c-f from low to high. gets you some pretty cool shapes and rich voicings but makes it very hard to play anything written for a normal tuning, so i switched back

[@Amorous578]

@@checkthedist we gotta see it

[@beansman9074]

diabolical riffs yet again, you never disappoint!! would absolutely love a tone and mixing video from you!

[@checkthedist]

Thanks for your support man!

How does this guitar feel and play? I kinda want to get one now just from how great it sounds! Also, for being that price too! That phenomenal! Awesome video man! Your videos are starting to pick my creativity back up again from the writers block I've been having this past year! 🤘🏻

[@checkthedist]

@@BiRDiEMusic this instrument is kinda weird cause its scale length, and I bet you'll not be happy with stock pickups if you wanna play heavy stuff, they are pretty noisy and quiet.

Под каким-то из прошлых видео написали что ты всё время делаешь одно и то же. Пожалуйста, не останавливайся!

bah bah \m/

[@TheMissMindyShow]

So question, how do you get your VI to sound so sick ??? I have mine tuned to this and doesn’t sound nowhere near as amazing as this !

[@checkthedist]

I think the key is to add some raw distortion signal without IR (just a little), it gives some clarity to sound

[@TheMissMindyShow]

@@checkthedist thanks ! I’ll give it try !

[@sailor.smm12]

Это потрясающе!

[@checkthedist]

Спасибо за поддержку!

[@progfrog474]

hey man first off, your music is fucking awesome! im considering buying this guitar and the tone in your videos is dope, i wonder if you did any mods to the guitar?

[@checkthedist]

Thanks for watching! I bought this guitar used as it is, the bridge and pots were changed by the previous owner, but otherwise all stock.

[@progfrog474]

@@checkthedist thanks for the reply are the stock pickups bearable? ive heard theyre really noisy and low output

[@checkthedist]

@@progfrog474 right, I think they need to be changed to be honest

[@PhatsGaming]

How do you like playing the Bass 6 man? Is it worth owning as far as play ability?

[@PhatsGaming]

Also try the PRS 277 baritone. I have one and I love it. I barely touch my 7 string anymore after getting the 277.

[@checkthedist]

Bass VI feels a little weird if you compare it to a regular guitar, but I had a 30" scale 8 string back in the days, so the scale is not the problem. A big minus of that exact Harley Benton is its pickups, they are pretty quiet and super noisy, of course they weren't designed for heavy tones, but in comparison with other guitars with single pickups they are big off.

[@HodMaz]

After the Burial x Alex Chichikailo

[@checkthedist]

@@HodMaz never heard of that band, are they better than Nickelback?

[@Demetriosich]

After the Burial неплохо, но есть те же Eye of the Enemy тоже очень хорошая группа. А с 8 струнами night verses, хотя они и не такие адские.

[@sirbiggithbrian]

I bet this thing is noisy as hell with those pickups?

[@checkthedist]

@@sirbiggithbrian yeah, like hell

[@user-mr8uh5mg4i]

Струн наверное на неделю хватает.

[@checkthedist]

Если честно, я даже не знаю сколько этим струнам лет)

[@lancetamama3674]

it's better than 8 string

[@checkthedist]

yes, in some ways it's better
