[@karjamatti]

Thanks for the kind words!

[@jihuneyphil2146]

What a flawless bass line and sound!!!!

[@chrisk920]

Flawless indeed. It sounds JUST Like the bass track. How did you do that? What rig were you running it though?

[@dennisfox8673]

Great job! Eddie Jackson is probably my favorite metal bassist, mixing relentless drive with interesting melodies, and you do a great job of capturing that. 👍

[@karjamatti]

Thanks for the kind words!

[@chrisk920]

Absolute Beauty in it's simplicisty. One of the best bass tones (Harris included) in metal. Just a KILLER BASS TONE!!!!!!! I WANT IT!!!!

[@chrisk920]

I truely believe these basses sound freakin awesome tuned down 2 pegs.......what a freaking great bass sound!!!!

[@karjamatti]

@@chrisk920 agreed!

[@jeffwolinski2659]

Best bass cover of this song that I've heard! And there's no other way to play it than on a Spector! Mindcrime is the main reason I bought mine 34 years ago.

[@karjamatti]

Thanks Jeff! You’re absolutely right, this track needs that NS-2 growl, otherwise it just ain’t right

[@chrisk920]

@@karjamatti I"ve got a 1991 Warwick with EMG's that doesn't even come close to that. I can see why they are so valuable. Any effects?

[@chrisk920]

Omg sound does not even come close to the Warwick I own. And it's a 1991 Streamer. What a fantastic bass. I can see why they are so valuable. Worth every penny if you're playing this type of stuff!

[@karjamatti]

@@chrisk920 just your standard daw-stuff, compression and eq. The tone mostly comes from the bass, but it’s also crucial that it’s set up in a way that allows you to get that growl (low action!!!)

[@Jsing6946]

Awesome, i just got me a red euro classic spector!!!!

[@karjamatti]

Thanks! I haven’t tried the euro classic, but I’m sure it’s a fine bass!

[@colinmarcum7582]

More Queensrÿche please

[@jukka-pekkanokkonen3855]

Kiitos.. Soittelin alkuun normi vireestä, eihän se potki. Täytyy kokeilla tätä, tulee jynkkyä lisää. 😂Kiitos videosta

[@karjamatti]

Eipä kestä!

[@pensnut08]

Eddie Jackson's bass tone is arguably the best tone.... Ever. I saw somebody doing this on a 5 string and not doing drop D... It loses the droning low D sound as the line moves and intertwines with the verses.. If that makes sense lol It just needs that constant D moving along that you can't get whe you fret the low D. Nice job!

[@karjamatti]

Thank you! Couldn’t agree more about Eddie’s tone, it’s incredible on this album. And I totally get what you’re saying, you really need that open D to get this one right

[@WreckEmTxTech]

Excellent!

[@DaisyTrainBandOfficial]

Bravo!!

[@leonardobaiocco59]

Bravissimo! 🤘

[@Warsel]

Played incredibly well, the sound also is really close. On the album it sounds like he is using a pick and a bit more grit (I think the amp was cranked up to distort a bit when recording) but in the mix there is very little noticeable difference from yours. The spector clearly does his (or her) thing.

[@Farewelltokingz]

Ed Jackson always uses pick in the studio. Fingers live for comfort and reliability. But he’s a pick guy in the studio.

[@Zatoichi444]

Nice!😀

[@karjamatti]

Thanks!

[@TiertheRifter]

You nailed the tone. What are you playing through?

[@karjamatti]

Thanks! It's just the bass straight into garageband with an amp emulator and a little eq and compression

[@ratsalad9401]

nice job muting on the triplets. Great timing and tone. Just wondering if you've tried the Line6 stomp.

[@karjamatti]

Thanks! I haven’t, I’m really not that much of a gearhead when it comes to anything other than the basses themself haha

[@TheFaustianMan]

Did he use an 1988 on this? Nice playing! Nailed it

[@karjamatti]

Thanks! I’m not sure of the year, but the ns-2 specs were pretty much identical throughout the Kramer era. But of course no two pieces of wood are the same, so each bass will be unique

[@TheFaustianMan]

@@karjamatti thanks!

[@timothycasey5749]

You playing a Spector?

[@karjamatti]

Yup, an older NS-2

[@timothycasey5749]

What effects of any do u use?

[@karjamatti]

Just some compression and eq from the daw. The key to this tone is the bass, but also low action!!

[@timothycasey5749]

@@karjamatti that's amazing... Thank u.

[@timothycasey5749]

I'm in love with the Interstellar...I'm also left handed.

[@Farewelltokingz]

@@karjamatti It’s really more the EMG active PJ set up with the reverse P and new strings of course . I get pretty much the same sound with my Warwick Streamer.

[@chrisk920]

I have the same Streamer. No you don't. @@Farewelltokingz

[@cabitt83]

Hey man! Are the strings BEAD?

[@karjamatti]

Actually it’s just two semitones down from standard, so DGCF

[@chrisk920]

So do you have the whole bass tuned down 2 steps? OMG! That Bass sounds great! What did you paly it through? @@karjamatti

[@karjamatti]

@@chrisk920 thanks, it’s just straight to garage band with a little eq and compression, but I don’t remember exactly. I always just go by feel, and the biggest conttibutor to the tone is the bass itself and how it’s set up

[@paullabarbera1829]

@@karjamatti no wonder why I watching going .....that isn't right as I know this song very well. Eddie always used a hipshot D tune on the E string to go to D . The rest is regular tuning
