DOMINATION

[@JackBealeGuitar]

Fart stinks like a...

[@Zodicus]

The guy with the black shirt not only plays Domination but also Peace Sells and Holier Than Thou. That's awesome

[@hailhydrazine4938]

Intro sounds suspiciously Pantera-ish

[@dasjonas14]

Right, i thought about Domination instantly :D

[@CoolspyGaming]

That's because it is.

[@HiagoRAD]

This song is called... DOMINATION!

[@ravenrock7451]

Holier Than Thou and Peace Sells - you're my hero, man! Sounds pretty damn good.

[@emmawebber9438]

Wouldn't mind seeing an episode on some LTD basses please :-) .

Had the 4 and 5 string David Ellefson Kelly Birds for the last 4 years now (got both on their initial release) and they're 2 of my favourite basses, even more than my 2 Fender Jazz basses (Flea and Marcus Miller). Never let me down. I don't treat my basses to delicately either yet they haven't picked up a single ding or scratch. I got my 4 string signed by Gus G too which is nice! I've also played the 4 string JS3 and it sounds exactly the same as the Kelly Bird basses. Not much sound difference between any of them to be honest, however they are a lot more than just rock/metal basses, don't be fooled by the looks! Some of the most versatile basses Ive ever played. I've played anything ranging from funk to jazz to full on Megadeth on those basses and they're just as good at everything else as they are metal! I want another Jackson more than I want my next breath! I think of Jackson as the Ferrari of the guitar world, except I could never afford 2 Ferraris and be planning to get a third!

[@tiktokgirl007]

i like your story but Rickenbackers are the Ferrasis in everyway

[@4x4andcampingchannel]

@@tiktokgirl007 Jackson any day

[@travisbuckley7299]

I know this comment was years ago, but how’s the neck dive on the Kellybird? Is it similar to a Thunderbird?

[@Big_Red_Devil_98]

@@travisbuckley7299 I haven't played many Thunderbirds but it's pretty much a case of don't let go of the neck if you don't want your headstock to slam to the ground so I'm guessing similar? Having said that, they're surprisingly comfy to play. Still got them both to this day! Never bought a third Jackson though as I made the rather large investment of a Status Graphite 😬 Although I would really like to get my hands on a classic 90s Jackson with a PJ configuration.

[@jaedonbusch6679]

Nice! I got to meet David Ellefson in Jackson Minnesota and talk to him for a few hours, best time of my life!

[@marcoabreo6506]

Jaedon Busch Nobody believes you

[@ronnocojason4325]

Got too meet him too and play holy wars on bass for him best time of my life

[@acey_570]

Oh my god, that livin on a prayer jam at the end was amazing. I would pay for that mp3 lmao

[@Doug5524]

First 1:30 awesome playing guys

[@jaybreeden7555]

Love Nathan but I'm really liking lee taking the reigns on leading the videos. I don't even mind the yeahs. Nice work Andertons!

[@joshstarkey8883]

They certainly seem to have a particular sound, even with different pickups. I wonder why

[@dennisschildmeijer5203]

finally bass guitar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@EpicPearKick]

Bought a jackson in may and it sounds and works great! the only drawback is that it doesn't feel handmade like a fender.

[@matthewdaws9877]

PEACE SELLS !!!

[@miguelroldao6939]

Matthew Daws BUT WHO'S BUYING ???

[@Metallion98]

But it had better work this time!

[@joshuabarnes7543]

I think it’s about time they do an update on the Jackson models sort of revisit this brand

[@LasseHuhtala]

Yeah, and yeah, so yeah. Papa bless you Lee, that jar will be filled in no time (unless you keep cheating). :-)

[@ZeugmaP]

The talkbox is a great idea !

[@CobaltLancer]

I wonder if lead and rhythm bassists will become a thing... (The way they played at the beginning)

[@jeffg1962]

Guys, I just purchased my second Jackson. I now have the David Ellefson signature model in 4 string and just purchased the JS2 concert bass. Love Jackson guitars.

[@joesasser4421]

Normally wouldn’t have given these a 2nd lok, but I’m really impressed with the JacksonV string with neck thru body construction. Always been a RIC, Höfner, fender P, J, and Telebass player. But I hear promise in the white one, especially with T-I jazz flats. YEAH BABY. well played by 2 talented and studly human beings! Let’s see more!

[@bobbyfields7359]

"Living on a Prayer" all bass version! Yeah!!!

[@santanajackson6160]

I have the black JS3Q Jackson bass and its onenof the finest basses that I ever played and they definitely got more balls than the kelley bird basses . I was planning to get the kelley bird but Im glad I decided to go with the JS3Q bass because it has heavy low end tone and a nice growl to it . I love my Jackson bass and wont gibe it up for nothing. and the feel of the neck is great .

[@The10000lbGorilla]

My Dad has a Jackson 4 string from 1990 and it is the standard against which I judge other basses. He also has the Dave Ellefson sig from 2 years ago (bit different than these) and it leaves a lot to be desired. I like Jackson guitars but they are not what they were in their heyday when Grover was around.

[@dylangreen9819]

The10000lbGorilla grover left the company in 1990. He sold it to the international music corporation of for worth Texas in 1989

[@fajaraw0463]

Mind blowing,David Ellefson of Megadeth bass series.....I feel bass for me is epic

[@toddmerriott6901]

These dudes made me wanna play bass again, and a Jackson!

[@billhorrigan4388]

I owned a JS 3 about 8years ago. Loved everything about it except the polyurethane finish on the neck. It would get sticky when my hands were sweaty. I recently picked up the JS2 and it feels the same but with a nice satin finish on the neck. I don't mind the passive pickups as I don't need to worry about keeping extra batteries with the bass.

[@donclark3643]

Ask an you shall receive with you guys?!!!! Watched earlier an mentioned the David Elifson an low an behold....here you are!!!! Thank you bruthren!!! Next question: What's Les Claypool play?

[@d.c3003]

I bought a Jackson I’m not that happy the battery constantly dies. I believe it’s wired in incorrectly

[@rockereivanivan]

do you unplug it every time you finish playing? battery drains out if you keep it plugged in

[@PingPongPix]

The "singing" bit at the end.... ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!!

[@donclark3643]

WTF is the mouth piece?!!!! Sounds like some Peter Frampton, an Bon Jovi I believe you closed the episode with...

[@wendyjordan482]

Do any of these come as lefty? Particularly like the quilt top one! Great playing lads!!

[@8Junio76]

The KellyBird looks awesome but it’s probably the most uncomfortable bass out there.

[@11coopbasscooper55]

Hey,...what is the "NATURAL" j bass wth the rosewood neck in the background,...if you guys don't mind me asking? I can't read the name of the bass. Looks amazing. : )

[@joshuabarnes7543]

Is it me or do the David Ellefson concert bass and kelly bird sound quite a bit different

[@JasonicIR8]

Jackson is in my blood :p

[@CRAD_333]

Holier than thou 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽

[@andrewcoates4952]

I bought a JS2 on a whim and I will say that the tome is pretty monstrous and growly, but the neck was too wide and flat for me. I would recommend though and are great for their price range

[@peytonplays5711]

Andrew Coates KZbin to mp3

[@Savvy66]

I love my CBXNT IV.

[@spikesvideos]

i have to wonder if the Bird bass will neck dive like crazy!! as they are known to....anybody got an answer? Please.....

[@scottishbawbag315]

if you are going to test rock/metal basses, get testers that know some decent metal riffs?

[@donclark3643]

Bout your thoughts on B.C. Rich Basses?

[@michaelgmcauliffe]

im trying to decide i would like the jackson sr3q also would like an ibanez sr300 ..i aleady own 2ibanezes 1 kramer 1 bc rich and 1 aria acoustic all 4 strings. which would you recommend the jackson or the ibanez? i am a finger player!!

[@CubiCakePvP]

Please show us the new jackson basses, Minion and Concert series CBXNT

[@Fektthis]

Nathan is a true bass player. You can tell because he traded off that 5 string as fast as he could being unable to count higher than 4 he was getting confused. mwuahahahahaha

[@markhawksford785]

Fektthis that's a bit stupid.

[@Fektthis]

yes, that's rather the point. (really only have love for em. if you were asked to imagine what a bass player from the UK is, the image i'd come up with is nathan. lee is pretty good too)

[@sonus289]

how is the neck width? I almost bought an older 5 string but the neck was a 2x4 .how is this?

[@user-xw6uh3yp7g]

I’m pretty sure Nathan is actually a guitarist, he plays guitar in Level 42 (a funk band which was pretty big in the 80s-90s) and his brother, Mark King, played bass in that band and he is also recognised as a great bassist. Nathan, on the other hand is I’m pretty sure a guitarist who also plays bass,

[@hugueninhank4168]

does the guy in the black shirt know any thing about these bass's because he has gotten every spec wrong.....3 band EQ and two volumes..WTF...maybe a volume and a blend..yeah lets try that.....

[@kylemetalgod]

I was expecting the ridiculous stretch of the domination solo on the bass. But then I thought you’d probably have to dislocate and manipulate fingers to make that work

[@Aw32999]

ITS DOMINATION!!!

[@Hellion73]

Fan of the Jackson's here, i own a couple of cbx IV DE old model (i don't like the knobs config from his new one) and a cbxNTV, great sounding and looking basses, some says they are mostly to "play metal", but as show in the vid, they are versatile on any style. BTW, just notice that Jackson are stop producing some "old" models like the ones from this review, replacing them with horrendous looking new ones, which were showed on NAMM this year, so be quick to grab any of this if you can.

[@justinreynolds3935]

That domination the real way. Damn

[@darryldoesit966]

I just bought a js3vq in cherry burst...cant wait to get that beast !!!

[@jrock-xs9vp]

Kick ass

[@sakondisable]

that bon jovi talkbox jam was awesome

[@Muppio]

If only the kelly was available in green with a either ebony or rosewood fb.

[@lemmy85pl]

I have Jackson David Ellefson CBX V QS and this bass if frickin awsome. Finish is great, sound is really good (if you like "Junior" bass playing it`s a must-have), passive EMG pickups with active EQ works great and last but not least - it has one small feature i really like - pots have "click-point" on middle position, so you always know where you are ;)

[@PowerfulTimmu]

These basses are made for distortion i feel clean is cool but the raw metal sound is even better

[@Nateyboy42]

Great opener guys!!! That's what I'm talkin about

[@nadinephang8589]

Is the JS3VQ better than the Ibanez RGB305?

[@wellmaxmedia]

Do they make a lefty version? I haven't been able to find one and I don't want to pay custom shop prices

[@rq5663]

Excelent bass player the guy with White shirt

[@superdarkshadow]

Awesome ending

[@ShazShaun]

That was the funkiest rock i’ve ever heard

[@PHEONIX_720]

I just gotten that David ellefson Kelly bird red and it's awesome

[@KryZehk]

The CBXNTV is my fav bass since 2014 :-(

[@ArielsSmartyPants]

Great prices on these basses. They sound mint and look cool. Sweet :)

[@71bassg]

i sounded like that last time i went to the dentist ouch!

[@ToneDead666]

Would like to hear some heavy sounds! Awesome vids though

[@Saxoprane]

8:27 The body shape might make a difference ? really ? thats funny guys. ^_^

[@richardhunter9779]

It's one of those "if wood was consistent" theories.

[@gregdjentyguy9986]

Yeah, once some guy decided to run an experiment. He took a Jackson Randy Rhoads V and started cutting pieces from it gradually and playing it. At the end a strange little piece of wood that had been left from a guitar still sounded great.

[@imoutofideasfornames]

Saxoprane it’s like putting flame stickers on your car to make it go faster. It works if you don’t question it.

[@scottishbawbag315]

domifunk. dime would be proud.

[@mrpositronia]

Almost cheap enough to buy two! :)

[@spikesvideos]

17:00 lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@tomthomason9669]

maybe some video about basses under 600$ , or amp plus bass under 1000

[@Ben_Mdws]

Tom Thomason check out the ones they've done on Ibanez bass

[@TheGoodgamer17]

What's that song he plays near the start

[@DioStreams]

do a Rickenbacker 4003 next

[@shrekscrustytoenail6668]

I’m kind of mad that they didn’t play slap

[@ronnocojason4325]

Lol I'm happy they didn't

[@benjamingutierrez2191]

ronnoco jason they’re not even real bassists, lol.

[@snakeplissken44]

what about the passive one though!

[@Mr.M1STER]

I'm not a big fan of the Jackson headstock but the basses look decent.

[@ipdjbt]

I'm in love with the Thunderbird-esque model!

[@Fektthis]

i'd say it looks like a kelly but i agree it looks cool.

[@falseprophecy666]

It is a Kelly and yes it is Thunderbird-esque. Lol

[@eva-vs1zu]
