Damn your bass can handle being tuned that low and not die or sound awful that’s insane also sick tone bro!

[@jbaryu]

What kind of bass is that?

[@RufusMann]

@@jbaryu Dingwall 🙌

[@BassUnderCover]

After all those years, still my favourite bassist in the world.

[@RufusMann]

Aw, thank you so much 🖤

[@alessandroborghese8148]

My god that tone.... this cover it's perfect

[@18hot30]

that tone is just a dingwall with a bit of grit, see Prayer Position playthrough by Nolly for the tone everyone and their mother are copying now

[@yeeyeecalypso5717]

My girl LOVES this song and Im so excited to learn this for her!! Thank you my guy!

[@zackerick4753]

@Kreedogger unfortunately my man, we broke up 🙃 But it is still a very fun line to play!

Rufus. Your tone. When you know you know 😁

Omg bro, isn't the best bass cover on the internet, I don't know what is

[@0ldboy1989]

Please cover more Sleep Token! 🙏🏽

When I put in a search for this, your details came up so instantly I clicked.

Yes i was waiting this vidéo for so long 🤟🔥

[@RufusMann]

Hope it’s worth the wait 🙈

[@basaraarakitacia3912]

​@@RufusMannof course It was great as always 👏

[@danielbrunner7730]

That bass is absolutely sick! Like wow... All of my bass guitars are all black and aside from my Jackson that has a white pickguard and like white pearl shark tooth inlays in the frets, are like all black! Black pick guards if they even have one, black strings, and black chrome fixtures! This would be a perfect addition!

[@rebeccahubbard6648]

Please do some more sleep token, especially take me back to eden. Love this ❤❤.

[@Victorvonbass]

Hope to see more Sleep Token covers. You always kill it!

[@Higniaisis]

I was literally waiting for you to cover Sleep Token.

[@nairblab4061]

You know.. I just started playing bass a few months ago. I started to learn the summoning, and noticed that the tab didn't seem right. I used track separation software and noticed it was indeed different, so i figured I'd look up some covers. The moment I saw your thumbnail and the Dingwall, I knew you were the guy - and you didn't let me down! Do you separate song tracks as well when you're learning a new song? Great job, subbed.

[@CynicEidolon]

That tone!!!

[@hardypahardypa1]

Bravo for this!!!!!!!!!!! Can you do the full album? Hahahaha I would watch a thousand times!!!!

[@JORGEALVAREZ-fl5cy]

I loved it, you could cover jaws from Sleep Token or Alakaline or The Offering some of their best songs

Amazing tone 🔥 🔥 🔥

[@redactedxx4219]

That's it, I'm modding a Thunderbird to be a poor man's D-roc, this tone is 🔥

[@RufusMann]

Thank you! This one is a standard so it might cost less than a Gibson thunderbird tbh 😂🙈

[@redactedxx4219]

@@RufusMann thought about financing a d-roc but I have a line on a Epiphone Thunderbird and I have the Dingwall pickups coming ...to be continued lol

[@Kreedogger]

@@redactedxx4219 Update??

[@redactedxx4219]

@@Kreedogger I did end up putting the pickup on but ended up selling that bass. It was unique sounding but not like a dingwall. Mainly because the scale was too short to sustain lower tunings. My default now is 35inch scale minimum. I had a BEAD bass that is 35 inch. But dingwall is a combo of pickup, scale, string that gives it that tone.

[@DaHipHopWitch]

Super nice ! Love the tone

[@idklol1780]

i actually covered the second of this song on my tiktok, this is my dream bass though. droc dingwalls are gorgeous. need a 5 string🤤.

[@Joseph-v6z4h]

Good tone bro❤

[@cnganggang]

SHREDDDDD!🤘🏽

[@idn]

Anyone know the time signatures for this song? It feels like it jumps around a lot, some 4/4, some 3/4, some 6/4?

[@cristianortega2400]

Man you’re awesome!… can you do a cover of the band katatonia… it could be … behind the blood or lethean!

Those are some thicc bois

[@gameymacarron17]

Does anyone know how I can search for that bass? what name does it have?

[@_BubbleFox_]

Dingwall D-Roc Standard

[@abcde15982]

Hello! I've been interested in basses lately. Could you tell me the name of the bass? I'm Japanese, so I'm not very good at English, but if you don't mind, please let me know!

[@florianbeguin]

Hey, if im correct this is a Dingwall bass and they're quite expensive so it might not be the best to start with. It depends what you wanna play :)

[@Trollzor3]

Check out the video description. There is a section called "Bass Gear" where you can find all of his equipment. Hope this helps!

[@myko.lektion880]

Is sleep token tune this way?

[@RufusMann]

Hm… I think the song is supposed to be tuned D# but it felt better to go lower than D# for me (just a personal taste thing even though it might be wrong 🙈

[@myko.lektion880]

@@RufusMann i agree. Your bass sounds so good! Amazing cover!

[@Perregrinemusic]

What is the tuning if I wanted to play this in D# ? The Ab string is too loose when I play in the same tuning as you have it. @@RufusMann

[@defcoal187]

Most sleep token songs are Bb Eb Ab Db I too prefer tuning Ab

[@sasiswiss]

[@SteveV74]

What kind of Bass is that? Fuckin cool lookin!

[@ElijahShumaker-z4i]

i cant believe this is drop d tuning but 6 STEPS down

[@bc2529]

I havent been playing bass very long, could someone help me understand the tuning?

[@mcstein420]

what do you need help with ? ^-^ The tuning is G# or Ab on a 4 string but you need thicker strings than you typicall 4 string bass Most 5 String basses can go that low with their stock strings , though thicker is adviced :))

[@aschneider8912]

That dingwall tone is FAT jeez

Ok so now im really confused between the diff of the electric guitar vs bass parts now. Lol.

Better tone than the original 👀 also great dynamics switching between pic and fingers 🤘

[@leolmx]

I don't even like this band and this song, but I like hearing it from you.

[@N1kto_N1gde]

Playing with pick is illegal 😮

[@bestlaidplans4511]

Except when it's not.

[@ultrabike3699]

Sleep token plays with pick

[@nuupez6648]

so achieving an insanely good sounding tone is illegal you say?

[@windhambass]

This sounds so good. I would love to get some info on low bass tunings and set up. Can I hit you up somewhere? Instagram or email?

[@RufusMann]

thank you, glad you liked it! The tuning and string gauge is in the pinned comment / description. Feel free to send me a DM on instagram to discuss bass also 😁
