Thank you for not doing the typical bass demo of speed slapping for 10 minutes. :-) It's nice to actually hear what the bass sounds like and not just how fast and slick you can jam. It's great that you're using different playing techniques and are demonstrating the different pickup and active/pre configuration!

Great video, lots of detailed good information

Sound quality of the bass test has improved!

i fall in love... I WANT THAT BASS

I've got a YY standard and you can get so many different types of sound out of this baby. Sounds like he should roll the tone control off a bit more

sound like amazing

What is the name of that song at the start of the video

Hey BassClubChicago, please do a demo of a Fender Marcus Miller sig. I am interested in buying one and you do the best demos! :D

Is the first song a improv or a song? If it is a song what song? Thanks.

Fretboard radius?

What is the pickup placement? Standard P, 60's or 70's jazz?

Good question. I think it's uniquely it's own spacing. I've never measured the exact dimensions, but I believe the J pickup is a little closer to the P pickup than historical spacings.

Bass Club Chicago - Thanks for the reply!!!

Sounds very plucky. Not bad I was just expecting more. Thanks for the vid.

Never understood the price point of these basses or any boutique bass. How do you justify a $5000 price tag or more for a few hundred dollars of material. I could understand a price tag of up to $2000 but after that i'm lost.

It's all relative. A Squier guy would say that a $1000 bass is over priced. Are orchestra musicians insane for spending more than $2000 on their instruments? Many players pay more than that on their bows, and travel cases. Truth is that most musicians are willing to pay more for a top quality instrument. However, everyone has a different definition of what "top quality' is.

Aguilar!!!

My ONLY criticism of this model is the fingerboard's all rosewood, rather than ebony & maple.

is that a zero fret on the nut or is that a brass nut?

Oh, do you know why some basses have zero frets? I hear its supposed to be like a brass nuts but there is more to it than that.

@BassClubChicago

Tone, mostly. Every other fretted note is between two metal frets of the same composition. The first fretted note is between a metal fret and a nut of different composition. A purist would tell you that generates a note with different tonality than the rest of the fretted notes.

I also here that it's supposed to help sustain but idk if that's true. Also, some people say that action tends to be lower with 0 fret but is harder to adjust and others say it helps stay in tune slightly. Do you know if any of that is true? Is their any problems getting the bass intonation if it has a zero fret? can you use whatever gauge strings you want on a zero fret?

What string you use in this vid?thanks

+BassClubChicago thanks u,one more question...Can this bass & fodera string play Pop,R&B style?

@BassClubChicago

I know customers to use their Foderas for that. You're starting with a very good quality of tone with the Foderas, and they are also very versatile. They are best for bright modern tones, but also get articulate passive tones as well.

No, just treble and active/passive switch.

Amazing bass, but when you turn the treble on... I can hear a humming noise. I wouldn't expect that from a $4950 bass. Disappointed.. I can get the same sound with my soundgear without getting that buzzing noise,

its 60 cycle hum from the single coil pick up. you're going to need way more money that 5 grand to figure out that conundrum.

Active passive switch? It's always active, guess it's more like a preamp engage switch. :p Killer sound on the new demo too.

I had a Guild Pilot bass years ago with EMG PJ pickups with 2 volume and a passive tone roll off. A battery was required because the pickups were high impedance. That might be the case here.

Its so lyrical in passive ...... mmmmmmm.... especially with both pickups

The fingerboard is ebony.

Victor Wooten

That is one sexy bass.

I just can not understand the price point. The specs are no different than any 1500.00 guitar. Wood is wood. I really don't get the pricing.

Sorry , half my post vanished.

keep calm and stop that leg ! ;)

A little extra money isn't gonna sway them.

A bass that expensive shouldn't have a string tree unless it's a Sadowsky or Fender

The guy doesn't have good knowledge of the bass he's demo'ing. The switch is an EQ bypass switch, not an active/passive switch. The pickups are always active.

What do you think an eq bypass is? Active pre-amp off/on.

no, active/passive means powered or not, the pickups are always being powered by the battery. dont believe me? take the pickup out. if the bass is truly passive it would work.

looks like an ibanez sdr

This bass have soooo amazing sound without fucking hartke...I dont understand, that master Wooten plays on this terrible amp...

To me this bass sounds too modern, almost soulless, and in all the videos showcasing it, you can hear too much fret buzz.
