I love this player, Lars, also Rene too. Both are such tasty and groovy players. Just saying
I need to stop looking at the Mayonnes website. My credit card is afraid...very afraid.

Great, informative video and great sense of humor. I am seriously thinking about picking one of these up. Thanks for the info and great bass playing in the demos.
Wow, that looks gorgeous!!
Incredible instrument- great review!
Awesome review, and the bass...WOW
Sounds very focused and tight ! Nice.
good review, thank you. I'm thinking of getting the six string version of this.
Thanks again Gregor
Nice looking bass. I'm not a fan of bartolini pups but I do like the Delano pre. Still a nice versatile bass. Gotta check these guys out now. A 5 or 6er in this style would be right up my alley! Great thorough informative video.
Yes, Mayones is an instrument

Amazing how many people watch Spongebob. LOL
Excellent reviews cheers
Lars can really rip with that overdrive on!
Such a great review and awesome bassplayer. I've watched it dozens of times, also because I'm seriously considering getting a Mayones. I've tried the Viking 5, but please, please, please do a Prestige 4 review. It's impossible to find a Mayones seller in the place I am now.
Like the sound and look.
Hi! Do u think this viking model given the same wood choice and specs, would have as the same sound features as the mayones pi model for wojtek pilichowski?
Beautiful bass, the wengue neck for me is the best, i have a Warwick with the same kind of neck, and the tone and playability is amazing. I dont like the OBP pre amp, is the only thing i’ll change if i have one.
This bass looks amazing! I really like that sound, any chance to see this one in any retailer in Europe ? (France to be precise)

+Tim othé you might want to write to Mayones and ask what shops have ordered one. I know for a fact that this bass went to a dealer right after we finished our review
7:18 OH YEAH ! ! !
Hi BassTheWorld, I want to see more view about pick technique,like a Cody .
Holy Hell that Tone *looks at wallet* I have another soul right?
That. Is. A. Beast.
At 6:39 was he playing "the beautiful people"? I loved this bass and the finish. Have you guys ever reviewed a mayones jabba 4 or 5? I've really been looking for a solid review on one and your channel is the first I go to for many reviews. :)

hi david! "beautiful people" ... not really, just influenced slightly by the particular groove as well as the sound in that very moment, i guess. i'm making up most of the grooves spontaneously, so ideas keep flying at me all the time whilst in a session. but yeah, i've noticed the coincidence, too! :-) atb from germany, lars

I'm sure Mayones will make this bass finish the way you like it. I like it but would rather have a natural finish. This is my dream bass , Gregor never mentioned the price.

What's the price that you bought this bass for Bassworld.com? I'm sure there are people interested in basses offered for less with the same tone/features. I've owned a Mayones Jabba Classic 5 and a Fodera MG 5 and loved them but found there are options tone wise that could be bought for less...

+Robin Betton I’m not buying the equipment we’re reviewing here. The companies send me the basses and I’m returning them afterwards. I don’t know how much it is. I guess somewhere around 3 grand

+Robin Betton I usually don’t talk about prices of high quality basses because they can be very different from country to country. While Europeans might pay 3 grand for a bass, someone in South America might have to pay twice as much due to import fees, tax, bribes for customs, etc.
@lakland5594

BassTheWorld.com well how about starting with giving list prices for review products US, EU and Japan (lands of few bribes) ? Something no other reviewer has done? Or at minimum stepping up to the ball plate such as other leading agencies such as bass player or bass guitar magazine stating stock prices (in the country where It is reviewed) It may be informative and helpful in a review.

How much this bass??
Looks great and sounds great but for over $3,000 I will stick with my ibanez SR2605.

Did you voice Gunter the pig from Sing?
They should name it the Viking Axe.
Gregor, I'm sure you won't see this comment, but I've always wondered. As a bass player, why haven't you ever demoed a bass on this channel?
@basstheworldofficial
6 жыл бұрын
I have, I made approx. 100 demos when I started this channel, most of them are deleted already. For me it's hard to play something appropriate when I have to think about camera settings and recording stuff at the same time. There's a good reason why there are musicians and producers/engineers in a studio. I chose to become a producer and hire amazing bassists for these videos and I think that way we achieve way better results.
The shape reminds me of rickenbacker
For some reason Mayones basses with soapbars sound too obnoxious to me (especially with Aguilar DCBs). In fact, that's the thing that turned me down from soapbar style pickups

G I think Mayones probably sucks at voicing humbuckers. because I heard a Sire M7 and an Ibanez SR370E that sounded better than any Mayones bass I have ever heard with humbuckers and about the P bass thing, I became a little bit more open minded about basses, maybe it can work perfectly for you, but I just prefer cutting through the nix rather than sitting in the back of it (that's why I love Musicman basses lol) But still, P is much better than PJ

Re: Soapbars on Mayones basses, I don't agree at all, and think probably you haven't heard a lot of their basses. Mohini Dey and Federico Malaman both play Mayones basses with soapbars, and they sound absolutely incredible. Fat, punchy, extremely modern, versatile sound . Way better than a Sire M7 or Ibanez SR 370, no comparison. Re: the P Bass sits in the mix better than any bass ever made. P Bass occupies its own sonic space which is what you want, that's why it is the most popular electric bass ever made. Nothing against Stingrays, but without the P Bass growl, it's not speaking to me in my soul. Cheers.

G I personally want to cut through and not sit in the back of the mix. Federico Malaman's bass is the only Mayones bass tone I ever liked, but tones like Wojtec Pillichowski's tone and some of Or Lubianiker's tones sound pretty obnoxious to me and it's disappointing, because the same pickups sounded really good on a Spector Euro 5 bass
That sound is not my thing, but she's so pretty !

Why are all these guys slapping now? They aren’t Larry Graham / Louis Johnson.
Nothing worse than wanting to hear the tone of a potential bass purchase by checking otu a review video to find the demo guy doing that slap crap. Not everybody slaps, so annoying.
