[@denklangsam]

The G&L bass is not an L-1500, but an L-1000.

[@patrickhunter]

Those Sandberg's are seriously so gorgeous and always sound phenomenal

[@babkakiepskagamestv]

Nice to see you here Patrick :3

[@Karbz_]

get one! i used to play fender, after getting a sandberg, im never going back

[@takeonemusic5537]

sandberg basses are by far the best handmade top range basses for the price -no bass has that neck and feel and they look amazing too -i have a panther fretless and its a real wow

[@rome8180]

That Sandberg 48 is seriously the coolest looking bass I've seen in my life. I don't even care how it plays or feels. I want one so badly.

[@garydunham335]

the only downside I see is it would be a pain to get to those upper frets.... otherwise I totally agree

[@gingaleanda]

That sandberg 48 distortion sounds great 👍

[@och70]

So boys & girls, the lesson we've learned from this video is that it's a really good idea to be good friends with people who build higher-end custom instruments. You may wind up getting a totally sick bass guitar for not a lot of money. And that gold sparkle 12 string? Totally awesome!!!

[@SanFranciscoFatboy]

not quite, it is dudes skill, not his ability to smooze. kinda a spoiled milk comment, r you jealous? ... maybe u should try some skill next time n u might get a free bass also

[@AB-vn2jc]

Fatz Treeboy Jesus Christ dude I’m like almost entirely sure that was a joke, chill out

[@orbit951]

Can't get enough of that Sandberg 48 jam

[@basstheworldofficial]

that was just a short section from a Darkglass Aplha Omicron video that will be released in 2 weeks or so. So there will be more :)

[@orbit951]

Cool, I'll look for it

[@richardsisk1770]

This the flat out best presentation on the subject of studio basses ever IMHO. Thanks!

[@kongandbasses8732]

Thank you, Gregor, for giving back the Vychodil P5. Because I am the guy who bought it from Ales. I am verry happy with the Instrument and have to tell you that I don't miss anything about the punch and agression you seem to found it lacking of. Maybe a matter of strings (EB Cobalt Flats) and/or playing technique? The neck is just right for my hands and playing style. Congrats to you for having the PBass you really like. Be sure that the P5 is in good hands and played a lot. For me it is the right animal for heavy rock/heavy metal. But it also is used when I am doing Soul or Motown stuff. And this is why I was looking for a P with 5 strings. I wanted to leave my beloved 1964 Precision at home, no more live gigs, just in recording situations I am willing to use my holy grail, when a really vintage sound is what we need. The P5 is one of my favourites, together with two StingRay 5 made in the 1990's and a StingRay 5 Classic. So again, thank you for not liking the Vychodil P5 that much. It is a beautiful, good sounding instrument.

[@StanEclipse]

The Lorenzo Feliciati video also made me fall in love with the Rithimic bass, the main reason I bought it. Wonderful bass.

[@mutantbaby1672]

It's a trade off, dude. Baseball bat necks give you nice big tone. Plus you can put ridiculously high gauge strings on and don't have to worry about bowing the neck.

[@basstheworldofficial]

for that I have the F-Bass. Usually I like P-Basses to have fat necks, but the Vychodil feels just too good that way. The string action goes as low as something Hadrien Feraud would play - for a P Bass this is phenomenal imo

[@PK_TANG_PK]

from time to time, the amazing youtube algorithm brings me to meet gregor in the past, i feel like i am the Rorty on his tee.

[@josephwalton487]

Wow I have to say. Sir I now have an amazing respect for you. When you said the words, "but I dont like expensive basses"... You had me hook line and sinker. Honestly I have two basses. Both four strings. One is a traben array premium...my favorite fretted four string so far i have ever played in 22 years playing. But my pride and joy is my $100.00 1986-87 fretless Yamaha rbx 250. I sanded the finish off and handcarved a wooden eletronic back plate and tung oiled (11 coats lol) the entire body. Well when I did just that alone this bass came to life. That was ten years ago I did all that..still have it..still my favorite. I have searched long and hard, high and low for that sound in another bass...but never can it be reproduced. Gotta love those cheaper basses lol

[@basstheworldofficial]

+joseph walton definitely, also you don’t have to worry about it all the time when you’re on the road

[@josephwalton487]

BassTheWorld.com Yes sir! Thats the part I love most. If something does break...more easily replacable lol

[@1968joseph1]

Had such a hard time admitting he should get rid of a few basses and then sort of rationalized his way out of doing that. Just like the rest of us would probably do. Love it!

[@Grumdot]

For what it is worth, I personally like the Torillo with the red alder.

[@miladbgn]

I love That fretless Adamovic, Sun was amazing too.

[@mutantbaby1672]

Same. That Adamovic is the best sounding fretless I've ever heard.

[@ronbzoom8531]

Resale value be damned, those last two Keisel basses look awesome. USA! USA! USA!

[@izzylazy2902]

jeez, that SUNN Mustang really KILLS !!!!!!!

[@helloitsnicko]

Hahahahaha “6 string mini piccolo bass” 😆

[@PureToneAmps]

we needed that video Gregor...... cool

[@therocksolide]

Great video !! beautiful Sandberg California TT4

[@mikehawk1341]

On the Cort I think the pickups are just very sensitive and placed very far apart, this is why you can notice so much the difference in sound I think.

[@craigmoran893]

That 1st P bass copy sounds so good!!

[@Bass.Player]

I had a Cort A5 that was really nice, however I like 35" scale and sold it. The wood on that bass was unreal, front and back, the neck was even figured. The problem with Cort is that they don't have a dealer network to speak of. I had to order that A5 and wait...

[@mutantbaby1672]

And replaced it with?

[@jacksonwrightmusic6805]

That musicvox spaceranger sounds so cool!

[@benchinho]

Zum l-1000: Schalter Richtung Hals: parallel hb, Mitte: single cool, bridge: series hb (sollte lauter und tiefmittiger sein...)

[@basstheworldofficial]

Vielen Dank :)

[@destobessa]

Hi Gregor, hope you don´t find it offensive to ask you this question. I felt in love with your Sandberg TT4 Masterpiece Bass. I wanted to order a custom 5 string Sandberg with the exact same set up. The only thing I would add is some regular knobs, the standard Sandberg bridge and roquefort blue body color. Can you give me an advice about the exact specs of your bass? I would be so happy to hear from you. Thanks, Mario

[@basstheworldofficial]

I’ve seen your request so I figure you found what you need already 😉

[@supergongspa]

Hey. Can you tell me what is the distortion you’re using at 33 minutes on the forty eight? Thanks..

[@basstheworldofficial]

That’s the Alpha Omicron by Darkglass

[@memebigboy1946]

This was very helpful thank you.

[@memebigboy1946]

also first!

[@dialect64]

Where do you post your studio recordings? Your descriptions of all the basses are accurate and your applications you say they are used for as well. Post some of your work with which bass was ussd? We love you, sir, and would love to hear your music! 😍😍😍😜

[@basstheworldofficial]

My works are all over this channel - it’s just never me playing them

[@michomicho7668]

ja i see price of cort neck thru is 440 to 700 euros that s a bit more than on your site /and i guess shipping tax and etc can push price to 700 or 1200 on neck thru model plus there is a question of left model

[@Neroese1]

RENE IS BACK

[@basstler84]

Tolles video - mal wieder (: ich habe vor jahren mal ein amp bei musik-schmidt gekauft und wurde von dir - Gregor - beraten. hab den amp auch immer noch! (: ich weiß du sagst es hier - du magst keine teuern bässe - aber dennoch vermiss ich allgemein ein Wal bass auf deinem kanal! falls du mal ein video von einem 94er Wal bass machen willst, stell ich dir gerne meinen zur verfügung! Anyway - Tollen Kanal hast du da aufgebaut!! Macht großen spass immer wieder die Videos zu sehen!!! viele Liebe Grüße aus Stuttgart

[@basstheworldofficial]

Veilen Dank :)

[@JosephNine]

HAY: I KNOW WITH GUITAR SOUNDS WHEN YOU TRY DIFFERENT POTS IT ALSO MAKES A BIG CHANGE, SAY IF YOU HAVE 250k GO TO 500k WILL BRIGHTEN UP SOUND OR GOING FROM 500 TO 250 WILL DARKEN THE SOUND ? NOT SURE ABOUT THE BASS,BUT WORTH A SHOT ?

[@SanFranciscoFatboy]

great vid, thanks :) . ( newbie question: what is the green thing at the first fret? a mute?) . cheers from calisfornia....ps: your english is frickin great!!!! it has to be a second language for you... really easy to listen to :)...... the Cort, at 400 bucks, sure looks good

[@OskarsArbidans]

This kind of videos are a pleasure to watch. Thanks for sharing! A lot of useful info for making a choice in the future.

[@deo.strengthspan.project]

Fun video! Thanks for making it. I look forward to your review of the Kiesel basses

[@robbiefest]

Great video. Thank you. I love it.. Ja, so let's go get the next bass!!!

[@AC-ep2fq]

That was great. Thanks. Can we hear you play sometime Gregor?

[@LarsUelf]

G&L sind super, ich hab einen L2000 aus der Tribute Series, der meiner Meinung nach sogar besser klingt als einige der amerikanischen, Wahnsinnsteil!

[@basstheworldofficial]

In ihrer Preisklasse sind die Tributes unschlagbar. Die Sire Marcus Miller Bässe sind die erste ernstzunehmende Konkurrenz, aber natürlich in einem völlig anderes Genre

[@triplesevensix291]

English please. Thanks. ;)

[@LarsUelf]

TRIPLESEVENSIX short version: Sire and the G&L Tribute Series are amazing

[@triplesevensix291]

Cheers mate. Lol. Stay safe.

[@KozmykJ]

I love the piano tones from that Kiesel. The sound reminded me of an Overwater I was trying to afford back in 1981.

[@VinceAnity]

In terms of affordable basses, you kept the CORT C4Plus because you liked it better than Harley Benton or Sire or because you had the right to keep it? :) :) :)

[@basstheworldofficial]

+Vincent Rpl i wanted to keep it because I like it. It’s a very decent instrument.

[@VinceAnity]

Ok, thank you for your answer :)

[@paultraynorbsc627]

Excellent thanks for sharing

[@dominicadler-biddle9199]

What song is being played on the sandberg 48

[@KreaperSlayer]

ever used steinberger basses? I have a 5 string and they are absolutely amazing

[@robertriggs7789]

Anybody else want to see Gregor play on one of these vids?

[@basstheworldofficial]

+Robert Riggs nope

[@reneflachsenhaar2968]

oh yes!! :)

[@idtuleh]

Love your t-shirt!

[@MrJohnnyorange]

Ales Vichodel basses are not expensive!? I find them very expensive!

[@jaredmatthews9403]

Why no Stingray type basses?! Big tone spectrum missing there....

[@artband5261]

Wanna see AtelierZ some day in your videos, also what do you think about Japan basses? Did you have some of them? Or do you gonna have some? I m saying not about Yamaha, but about really Japanese ones.

[@basstheworldofficial]

+ART band Japanese basses rule!

[@DenOctaReport]

Thanks , this was so helpful

[@RaJuRMusica]

i wish someone was.giving me mistake basses from highend companies!!!! Time to upgrade mymusic channel....LOL I was only here because of the Musicvox Spaceranger. Ima have to pay for it of course. Havent I seen these basses in another video? Well back to the Best Bass Video Ever.. Bass Sounds 2. If Bart wasnt sooo shy I would like to her him talk about his basses!!! The SpaceRanget is affordable...but you're not paying for it or the other hundred basses you are gifted......You ever thought about giving them SUMTHING!!!

[@basstheworldofficial]

I bought most of the basses I own

[@ManCaveStudio]

What are the cream colored pickups in the Sandberg California TT4 Masterpiece?

[@basstheworldofficial]

+Ricardo Rodriguez from Kloppmann Electronics

[@christophermcguinness8200]

Doesn't the VFP5 have an aguilar pickup in? Would like to know what that pickup is

[@basstheworldofficial]

+Christopher McGuinness the standard Aguilar 5string P model

[@williampeckham9838]

Why doesn't he play in his videos. This channel has abit of a wheeler dealer vibe.

[@christophermcguinness8200]

Do you think the precision pickup is from Haeussel?

[@basstheworldofficial]

+Christopher McGuinness i figured it out, the company is Leo Sound

[@gianniorlati9275]

The black G&L is a L-1000 model, not L-1500 ... come on ...

[@MrOpticali]

It's definitely an L1000 (like mine). I would assume that it's had an L1500 neck at some point.

[@christianprado8720]

My dream!

[@Leiria65]

More of the dude in glasses please

[@owens7807]

totally agree

[@Murgins]

What pickup-brand is he saying at 18:17 ? Can't hear because of his accent:D

[@basstheworldofficial]

+Anton Helgesson I said „one pickup“ ;)

[@lavadoraautomatica1]

Rene as always annihilating grooves tones without saying a word.

[@hifijohn]

[@basstheworldofficial]

+hifijohn he only has 1 hand

[@basstheworldofficial]

[@nicholassternon5857]

[@basstheworldofficial]
