Spiritbox - Jaded | Drop-F# Bass Cover with Tabs!

I've always admired what Spiritbox does from a respectful distance, but only lately I've been toying with an idea of covering their songs. Cue the release of Jaded and another late night inspiration and here's my first cover of ‪@SpiritboxOfficial‬ in astonishingly low Drop-F#!

Oh boy, I haven't tuned this low on video for ages! I'm really happy to see how well my Dingwall held it together even with standard strings 😍 Let me know if you'd like to hear more low-tuned songs and subscribe to be notified when those come out! 💪

[@jesselough]

Fucking insane tone and performance 👏🏻 I feel that F# is the lowest tuning for bass where the perceived fundamental note can still be heard and felt with good eqing/ compression and saturation. Anything lower yields diminishing returns imo. Anyway your dingy dished it out so nicely. Hope to own one some day, they literally all sound so good.

[@devendasmusic]

Man for being so low, the articulation and tone is super crisp. Ding wall baby

[@Paajanenae]

Ding wall 🙏

[@northtimo666]

That tone. 🤯

[@Paajanenae]

Soundi velehu hommisa!

[@therealcrow6933]

dude... how does this sound so good?!?!

[@Paajanenae]

🤓🤓 Tone nerdery! Dingwall + loose strings + push that 3k into your distortion stage

[@sidthebassist89]

​@@Paajanenaethat 3k distortion is the ticket 👌

[@kledsonmeireles]

Sensacional. Que timbre magnifico. Como você deixa o bass com esse efeito?

[@rainyboy2281]

​@@kledsonmeireles ele usou um Dingwall(um baixo perfeito pra tocar metal, por ser multiscale e de 5 cordas ele aguenta afinações mais graves sem perder muita clareza), as cordas ficaram um pouco soltas, pra dar um som mais "percurssivo" pro baixo, dando aquele estalo e por fim jogou bastante distorção(além da equalizaçao da mix, obviamente). Mas caso vc não tenha um dingwall, oq é provável pra nós brasileiros, te indico dropar o baixo até mais ou menos drop C, se você tiver um baixo de 5 cordas, até drop A e usar um Pitch Shifter pra alcançar a afinação.

[@marvinrockon]

the way you nail it everytime , being fast af with these covers, and have one of the best tones. Once again, great job!

[@Paajanenae]

Thank you so much! I've managed to build a good routine that helps me put out covers that look and sound right relatively easily 🫶💜

[@KEPO]

I just love that tone and the growl!

[@number7industries]

Beautiful bass and badass playing‼

[@Paajanenae]

Thank you! 💜

[@gadrockduke]

F'in A, man.... Good Lord that Dingwall is a BEAST with the DG clone pedal. Fantastic playthrough! I will own a Dingwall 1 day. For now, I'll have to keep on rocking my EHB-1505MS.

[@RollerCoasterLineProductions]

30 seconds in and yeah, you def got this covered.

[@redactedxx4219]

Saving my pennies for a d-roc. Sounds so good. But your playing is brilliant.

[@Paajanenae]

They're worth every penny!

[@kokonava_1989]

Love the tone

[@onewaytorock2776]

True tone brah!

[@marissa_____]

Thanks so much for the tabs!! I subscribed!

[@LetItHappenGuy]

More 🔥🔥🔥 my guy. You're making it really hard for me to not want to add a D-Roc to the fleet with all these vids. I just bought a Warwick Corvette last month, so I feel like I need to chill before I pick up another bass haha

[@Paajanenae]

Hahah, doooo iiiitt 💪💪

[@philzo]

Bro your picking attack is lethal ! Sick cover 🔥🔥🔥

[@Paajanenae]

Thank you!! I actually had to tame it a ton since the strings are so loose 😂

[@philzo]

Yeah I can tell they are a bit floppy, are you using .45-.127?

[@Paajanenae]

@@philzo 45-130, the standard Dingwall nickel wound set!

[@philzo]

@@Paajanenae good thing that dingwall is 37 inches seems to hold F# pretty good

[@Paajanenae]

@@philzo Yeah it does! I've actually tuned even lower with my Charvel, check out my Atlas - Uhri video from a few years back!

Sick sound dude

well done mate! that tone! 🤩

Thank you 🥰

Excellent job that was Awesome 🤘🔥.

[@ricardosilva5379]

Incredible tone as always 👏 I bet the song "Kill or be Killed" by Muse would sound sick in one of those basses.

[@KedaRalph]

this is really good :)

[@Dunkelzeitgeist]

Proof that looser strings do sound better 😂 just come from your schism cover, you're absolutely amazing dude, new sub, keep it up!

[@rowanplaysbass]

dude this is so fucking good, i might cover the song myself..

[@Paajanenae]

Thank you, go for it! It's a really nice song to play 😄💜

[@robertching603]

If you don't mind for asking, what string gauge do you use for your lowest string? Will a gauge 140 be sufficient? Thank you! Love your tone man!

[@Paajanenae]

I use the standard 45 - 130 set but your mileage may vary ✌️ Thanks!

[@thekingsguard8874]

you gave me the stank face!!!!!!

[@Scythlex]

May I ask, since when do D-roc standards have inlay blocks like this? Are they like vinyl stickers or something? Looks and sounds FIRE

[@Paajanenae]

Since I put stickers on them 😛 Neck Illusions makes inlay stickers for Dingwalls and they're pretty cheap as well

[@Scythlex]

@@Paajanenae that is awesome! Thanks for letting me know.

[@robbieskolnick317]

Drop F# huh?... Wowsers.

[@laveernick]

Thanks for responding to my last comment about the fret buzz thing. I have one more question. With everything you said that you do (keeping the neck straight, raising action, etc) do you think you could tune as low as drop E and get that same clean results using the standard strings?

[@Paajanenae]

Check out my cover of Indistinct's Heart Prince on this channel! That's tuned down to D#0 :)

[@esa4141]

Vety tight and solid. If you would have to choose only one bass guitar for rest of your life, what it would be???

[@Paajanenae]

Thank you! In all honesty I think it must be this bass :) I've been playing it a lot lately and it's delivered every time

[@yalngucgoturen7413]

Awesome ! Do you stack both Pork&pickles and ibanez pd7 as pre gain boost or one of them after B7k ?( I guess PD7 gives extra Crisp for top highs )

[@Paajanenae]

Yeah I stack both! The PD7 cleans up the Pork&Pickle and the Pork&Pickle has limited headroom so it squeezes the signal and introduces a nice mid-centric overdrive 👍

[@yalngucgoturen7413]

If the bass was a Dingwall NG2 model does it still need the extra clarity with PD7 for pre gain after P&P ? Actually I have an active bartolini Mk6C dual soapbars stacked with a bartolini NTMB 3 band eq with mid freq boost switch. Does it have the same response to the tone If I boost high mids with frequency and set mid&trebs *3 o clock from the guitar's PA to balance the P&P to get this specific kind of tone or PD7 kinda pedal is a must for both active and passive guitar with this kind of effect chain? I dig your kind of vibe to the genre and as a fan, I would like to learn those teachings very much like a padawan . Sorry to bother 😅

[@Paajanenae]

@@yalngucgoturen7413 Everything I've used benefits from having the PD7 in chain. A boost at 3kHz will give you some of the benefits it has to the tone.

[@laveernick]

Do you get a lot of fret buzz when tuned that low? I’m modifying my D-roc to fit .150 gauge to (hopefully) play in drop F and E. Hoping that I don’t have to go any thicker

[@Paajanenae]

Not really! I always make sure to setup the neck almost straight with a bit of relief and then raise the action until I get rid of frets choking the sustain. Since the strings are so loose, having a higher action doesn't make them any worse to play.

[@Armazillo]

[@francoishtzl157]

Is it a B3k clone ? ^^ Sound tight.

[@Paajanenae]

Yeah the Picatrix is a B3K clone! 👌 It's the Guma_Drive DIY-kit from Musikding

[@nickromeo93]

Hey brother so I just ordered a Droc 5 and I’m curious would I have to modify it to be able to play in drop E and F tunings? I imagine I would need thicker strings than what they come with. Thanks

[@Paajanenae]

I played this with the same strings the bass comes from the factory 🤝 but your mileage may vary. If you want to use thicker strings, you'll need to file the nut to accomodate those

[@Toast7160]

Hey do you have any recommendations for which bass amp head/cabinets can sound great in Drop F# on a live setting?

[@Paajanenae]

Not really, no. But since my tone is largely based on the Darkglass B7K and usually a 410 or a 810 cabinet sim, something like those should work fine. Don't worry about the low tuning, it's not really going to make a big difference

[@DiamondLifer]

What strings and gauges are you using please?

[@Paajanenae]

The standard Dingwall 45-130 Nickel Wound set

[@MFKR696]

Low-end's pretty muddy. Could use some paring down.

[@sir_quirkus7206]

whats the gauge you used for this tuning?

[@Paajanenae]

45-130 🤝

What kind of pick are you using?

Ultex Standard .88mm
