I wish I could only listen the bass

That colour is so beautiful... wow!

Dude if this tone is truly just DI thru an amp sim w/compression, I'm pretty blown away by how massive it sounds.

i'mma b real with you chief, this is a very "guitar player dialed and mixed this" sounding tone

That’s what I was thinking too. A very 1988 Lars Ulrich sounding mix. Turned the bass down to 1 on the mix.

At first , I thought that you were playing the intro with the bass and I thought "What on Earth! Did he make the bass sound like a guitar, like Cliff Burton used to do?"!

Although musically it’s not my cup of tea I can really appreciate all this bass can do …. impressive !!!

Serious God That Failed vibe on that bass tone. Love it.

Talks about how great the bass tone is, then proceeds to bury it in the mix. Love you fluff butt even when its just bass and drums you can barely hear the bass.

I kind of have to agree with the OP here. I'm definitely NOT a fan of this type of bass mix (and I'm using a pair of Audio Technica ATH-M40X headphones, one of my favorite headphones because they're very neutral). It's extremely scooped, and to me, it's just muddy. I understand this is often the way they mix in the modern metal scene, but if my bass lines were mixed like this, I would not be happy. It lacks character and punch. Not dishing or anything, but IMO this does not showcase the bass tone very well.

He said he can't hear the bass, which is not the case. The bass is very loud in this mix and anyone who doesn't think so either has garbage headphones/speakers or has completely blow out their eardrums. It's not about the quality of the mix, which is a personal preference, OP said he can't hear it. That's what we're talking about here.

It's not articulate, it's muddy, and that buries it in the mix as sort of a "blanket cover" for the rest of the instruments. Having loud woofing tone just muddies things up IMO. Wanna hear a great Stingray tone with a pick? Check out "At The Drive In - Relationship of Command" album. That thing has balls, character, and isn't just some loud super low frequency. Again, that's my personal taste and where I agree with the OP.

sounds great !!

Wow! Killer tune! Awsome basssss too!

Damn that has that perfect mid-top clank to it.

I love this riff!

That Bass Tone!!! Sounds Awesome Fluff.. The Roasted necks are so sweet. 🤘👍🤘

Awesome Bass tone!

What made you decide to go with one pickup versus two pickup model? Just wonderin...

I know this video is for the Bass, but what was the blue guitar with the fishman pickups in?

I need to get me a guitar that colour!

Great Tone!

Thanks for the review! Love that bass! What strings are you using and what gauge? Thanks!

I love Stingrays! And that you’re playing metal with a lime green bass. It’s bad ass! Lol

Where did you get this color with chrome hardware? I only see it available with black.

great tone, great mix! \,,,/

I own the 5h in charcoal sparkle and it's fantastic. Great job in showcasing the bass in a mix because that's where it outshines a lot of other basses. The only thing I would add is showing the stingray's hi end response. Thanks again for the video and keep up the amazing work as always

Hey ! Cool demo :) What strings are you using for drop b tuning ?

did they brought the pickup closer to the neck?

Fluff, what bass string gauge did you use for this drop b tuning?

Gotta say your playing has gotten a lot better since you went on tour. You're tighter. 10,000 hours bro. :)

What amp are you using?

Did he say it was tuned to drop B or D?

Smokin' hot!!!!

Heavy riff as always \M/

Great a guitar player demoing a bass.

I thought it was a short scale at first. Damn, they're expensive

Is that peavey yours fluff? Or just temporarily?

Wow, the bass is totally buried in the mix. “Hey, let’s make a video about what this bass looks like while being played”

It’s also, in my opinion, a really low tone. That is personal opinion, but during the bass breaks there isn’t a whole lot of treble there. The stingray is capable of a lot more than just that.

I kinda like the Sterling neck's (slo model) over the standard, but love the look of that pork roasted maple.

@3:45 i legit got excited. that is amazing

Damnn you need to release the music somewhere please!

You're not helping my gas Fluff. I already have 2 stingrays but these new ones are making me want another lol.

Holy shit that fuckin tone!

Tune sounds like Rest, Repose stuff... awesome

I think it would have been better to demo it with a different genre. High gain metal bass is cool but doesn't highlight the bass tone like, say, pop punk or funk would.

It would be great to just hear the DI. Also, Knowing what DI you used would be helpful. :)

sploosh on sploosh. that first section of just bass and drums 🤤

Hey, that's the song from the Brent Hinds Terror video.

That sound is definitely channeling some Rex Brown.

stingray basses are pure cream.

Guys!!! If you use this bass please use Ernie Ball Slinky Strings please Ernie Ball is used by Eli Clark and soon with me I already kicked Fender suck for me

sounds like a halo rock theme bass tone. That bass is great

Could’ve boosted the mids on that bass for more audibility

🍷🍷

ONLY HEARD THE DISTORTION!!!!!

Solo bass @ 3:45 gave me a chub lol

Yeah check it out..you know..if you have an extra couple grand layin around..lol

Peavey Invective just hangin out. Heeeeey guuurrrl!

A nasty ass riff! Love it 😍

Sounds amazing, but, I personally prefer the 5 string basses

That stings

pic????...its a bass.

Just sounds like clicking to me... Doesn’t cut through the mix 😬... And I was planning on getting one of these

Great performance! Luv your vid. Our company hope to cooperate with you.Are you feel interested in testing microphone? That is a kind of microphones which is suitable to live performance.

Sasha Bowers same here. That design I can’t stand on guitars but it fits for a bass

You guys must be deaf or something I can hear the bass just fine with stock apple headphones. It could be a bit louder and clearer tough.

one thing I hate when I go to watch a video about gear I want hear the gear not it mixed with other instruments let it stand alone. when mixing you can hide floss. then after you let us hear it alone then play it in a mix.

All I could look at was the Invective behind Fluff. Get that bass out the way and demo the Peavey!!!!!!!!!

Would LOVE a white either single or double pickup with the roasted maple neck SOOOO bad. Not sure I can justify the price (new baby, just moved...) Anyone who says they can't hear the bass has bad speakers or something. Listening through $18 headphones and it's clear as day. Tone is fantastic, a little different than the Brent Hinds amp demo song, I may prefer that other tone slightly to this but that's just me.

The bass is nice and all but that tune is NASTY....in a really good way! Is that going to be a new Rest Repose song or can we get it somewhere? Loved it and want to crank it loud!

The real name of this video should have been "Fluff Gets Groovy".

This is really good riffage. Reminds me of Chevelle.....but better

Fluff please use the raw sound next time! ;)

yes daddy.

Dear Ryan, I see someone calling you out in the comments about this video being an Ad for Ernie Ball, it got me thinking about a few other youtube artists and their gear reviews, are you sponsored or endorsed by Ernie Ball? Do you receive free stuff from them? It's not a big deal that you provide favourable reviews for them, allowing that you personally enjoy their products, but I would like to know if there is any kind of quid pro quo that goes on between you and their company? Is this part of how the youtube artist thing works. I'd just respect full disclosure. Your content and playing are above reproach and I see why they would like to have your voice added to the praise of their products. Please don't stop what you do, I would just like to be informed as a consumer. -Respectfully MJ

The only one who points out clearly the sponsorship is Trey (Gear Gods) by putting the logo in the beginning of each video. I think this policy deserves Ernie Ball's image. But I'll skip the massive flood every time Ernie Ball puts something new on the market. Regards.

Im sorry to let you all innocent fluff fans know that 99% of the videos fluff makes are tied to some sort of a deal or an agreement with the manufacturer. This is just life, people need to pay bills and have some minimum savings if they dont want to starve when they are old and retired. I do think though that it is not healthy for the channel on the long term to have just sponsored videos. And also a sponsored disclaimer would be nice.

I can absolutely respect if this is the reality of Fluff's, and I might add many musicians world on youtube. I feel a sponsored disclaimer is really the only way that these artists can show that they respect their viewers when it comes to gear reviews. Perhaps it's time for me to stop watching these and other content produced by artists who seem to approached quite often by certain companies..

I barely hear that Music Man

Dude, try just setting the correct focus manually. The auto focus is hunting like a Texan in duck season.

Even on my crappy phone speaker this sounds incredible! That mix as well! Fucking hats off sir! I love it

That thing looks like a toy in his hands. Either it's a short scale, or Fluff''s just got a hefty frame.

@@RiffsAndBeards here in Europe (which I assume where he is from) Music Man instruments are a lot more expensive, I wanna get the Majesty Monarchy 7 Royal Red around March and it will cost me about 4100 euros...(that's why if you do have Music Man here you might attract attention, they are considered premium instruments that usually only pros have)

Can barely hear the bass in the mix. Not good

Youre one of the few music youtubers that actually plays the bass like a bass player as opposed to a guitarist playing the bass

New Ernie Ball bass looks like a SUBray4 bass, but way more expensive!

Ehhh this is not a very viable or good bass tone to demo, the natural sound with slight overdrive (not full on distortion) is honestly what grabs metal bassists in, this tone is what you get when you let a guitarist do your tone for you.

i dig the bass sound. but man.. that guitar tone is distractingly inarticulate. just not for me. would have liked to hear more of the bass DI

If you want to review a bass don't play it as it was a guitar. I can barely hear the bass because of the fcking guitar

Dug the song!

Guitar player playing bass? With a pick? Just not good.

Way too low in the mix...sounds like a dodgy guitar. Too much gain on it.

Ernie balls goal is to sell basses. One of the most effective ways to do this is to get them in the hands of youtubers. They are guaranteed to get it seen by millions of people. Its a smart move. If you dont like it move along. Complaining about it just shows your ignorance of how the world works.
