Royal Blood - Figure it Out Bass cover with tabs

[@lapinamagica4217]

The immediate relief that washed over me when I read *standard tuning*

[@zouteranja4041]

always

[@trushko8711]

I KNOW!

[@craignightingale8022]

Church! Though I don't have an octaver, so I tuned to drop D, put a capo on 2 making an e,b,e,a tuning and played different parts on the low and high E STRINGS with different fingering as necessary.

[@craignightingale8022]

Oh shit, the comment I just left, I wrote a similar one 4 years ago from my other account!

[@dryskinpug24]

Lol same. It always angers me when it's not.

[@simonhastings9404]

Great cover man. This is the closest I've heard to actually sounding like Mike Kerr with your rig. Nice job.

[@loickjouaud9557]

Thanks a lot man !

[@KeeperOfPoops]

i guess you could say he figured it out?

[@augustus9992]

@@KeeperOfPoops Best pun I have ever heard lol. You just made my whole day

[@crown2town805]

Thank you, Loick, this got me playing the song. Once I had the fingering down I rearranged it a bit to account for not having an octaver pedal, aby box, two amps, etc (so doesn't sound like the band but what the hell!). Downtune E to D, capo on 2 giving EBEA tuning. Verse and chorus on the low e string, all pull off parts on the new "high" e string. My bass has 24 frets, so I can play right up the neck for the solo. Cheers!

[@chrisclayton2214]

Dude you did a fantastic job on this one!!!

[@loickjouaud9557]

[@joker28666]

i shit you not, the only way i can manage to get a really good distortion effect on my bass guitar is if the active preamp battery inside it is dying

[@zouteranja4041]

I have a fender guitar amp for distortion

[@8jaime8]

There’s a lot to be said for ‘shitty’ gear. Whole genres practically rely on it, like early black metal.

[@themacstack]

I am tryin to set up a similar rig and I cannot figure out the routing to the bass amp UNLESS it is like this. The bass is set up in LOOP 1 with the Y-cable single end plugged into the bass amp.

[@thebossman88]

flawless!

[@loickjouaud9557]

Thank you !

[@fredodelatorr]

this simpler than i thought and another pedal that sounds like yours is boss sd-1 super overdrive pedal which also sounds really good on this song

[@calogerovenniri7868]

Fantastic

[@lolahiland3963]

amazing bass line dude!!

[@loickjouaud9557]

Thank you ! :)

[@cmousdale]

Great video and tone! Thanks - quick Q. Why the Whammy AND mooer? How do you set them?

[@loickjouaud9557]

Thanks ! The mooer is for the constant +1oct on the whole song on the guitar amp, beacause it sounds way better than the whammy for that The whammy is only for the pitch down at 2:14, and act on both guitar and bass amps, and also to add a 2nd octave up at the end of the song

[@cmousdale]

@@loickjouaud9557 Cool thanks for the info!

Hey, ik this is gonna sound really stupid but how do I make my bass sound more like this. I don’t have anything but the bass and amp and don’t know much about other things I can acquire to get this sort of sound. Maybe I just have a cheap bass I don’t know. Anyone that can help please do :)

[@raphcar08]

Quels sont les réglages pour la Big Muff ? Merci

[@gabrielkontrabass]

You make this sound similar to a guitar with the mooer octaver and the big muff???

[@loickjouaud9557]

Yes ;)

[@gabrielkontrabass]

In the case, if I had a a octaver for bass and fuzz, I'll make the "complete sound? Similar to a guitar and a bass at the same time?

[@loickjouaud9557]

You need also a bass amp, check out the schematics at the end of the video

[@Bazzguit]

Awesome! You'd get a few mics to show your tone crystal clear. Cheers!

[@christianvaldez755]

Great tune man! What where your amp settings?

[@loickjouaud9557]

Thanks ! My Vox is on clean with bass and treble around 70%

[@benjaminXx]

at 0:50 are you like "flicking" the string back to keep the note going without using your pick?

[@OLShowjumping]

It's a pull off

how do you use ur big muff to get this tone? Like what dials are where, and what options do you have selected?

[@loickjouaud9557]

Tone around 50% and not much gain, the sound comes also a lot from the tender octaver

[@cheshirebluemoon]

[@dieforelma]

@@loickjouaud9557 yeah we all love rocket pens. Keep rocking mate.

[@soulbrother5435]

0:50 how do you play without right hand?

[@sandenson]

By continuously doing hammer-ons and pull-offs. Basically your finger the fret really hard, then pull your finger out, slightly pulling the string. You repeat that process the amount of times needed.

[@Mike111Chou]

Ask paul

[@dazzlingred986]

Which pedal did u use?

[@acesmcl]

Where did you find the sheets? Would love to use them!

[@finn3381]

Why did you use two octaver? Was it to achieve a fuller sound?

[@loickjouaud9557]

I always use the mooer for the fake guitar sound ( +1oct ) because it sounds better than the whammy, then I use the whammy when I need pitch effects ( at 2:14 ) or to have +2oct sound ( at 2:18, or on One Trick Pony solo )

[@OverdosedCaffeine]

How much did that setup in the end cost you dude?

[@JacobRobot321]

what pedal makes it sound high and like a guitar? is it an octave pedal?

[@loickjouaud9557]

Yes, the Mooer Tender Octaver

[@axelRHO]

FUCK YEAAAH

[@thebasementofficial6547]

What is the “Y BOX”???

[@loickjouaud9557]

A pedal with one input and 2 outputs, you can find some models on internet

[@jaycudney3630]

can i get a copy of the tab

[@검은용보리]

HOW MUCH COST YOUR BASS

[@lydial-j4798]

it isn't about the bass, it's all about what amps and pedals you use, i can make the full sound with a pog2 and a simple channel splitter (as well as a peavey tnt 350 and a hughes and kettner tubemeister 18), you can use an optional bass effects processor just to clean it up but isn't so much needed because of the clean bass sound.

[@zachcraig9340]

Can you please reveal your secret of the 1 finger hammer on string pull pleaseeeeee

[@louie8604]

You press down on the string then pluck it with the same hand

Awesome cover! I've just started playing bass guitar, was wondering how exactly is he playing the 0-10-0-10 section on the low E string (without plucking I mean)?

[@loickjouaud9557]

Thank you ! It's a hammer on and a pull off, hit the string with your left hand to make the 10 (hammer on), then release the string by pulling it slightly to make the 0 (pull off)

[@hexoutsidelomeli5267]

What’s the effect here????

[@kwiebus24]

A lot of effects. A fuzz, an octaver, a whammy pedal and more, you can see it in the end
