This might be the best sounding instrument i've ever heard. Your playing is out of this world too.

It’s hard to believe that all of that sound is coming out of one instrument.

Bravo! I have recently gotten an 8 string after wanting one for decades.This video of such excellence has inspired me, thanks.

This is so incredible. I'm blown away.

Absolute cool.

I come back here over and over again to hear this one!

Love that bass love the song so 😎

I So dig this...bravo bruh.

You rule!!!

Badass 👍😁

Man with 4 mustaches says... Outstanding! Thanks for sharing! And... #JesusisLord

А где же басс ,вернее звук басса??

How have I not come across this video until now? What the crap KZread?

Fucking awesome. Blows the original out of the water.

Good job, brings back memories of Cheap Trick's Peterson on stage.

This may very well be one of the best things I've ever seen.

These things would probably benefit bassists in three-piece bands the most. Talk about filling the sonic spectrum.

Familiar with Kings X? Dug Pinnick used a 12 string extensively early on starting with their 2nd record. Look up "Moanjam" or "Over my Head."

The secret of the Cheap Trick sound.

Is there anything better on earth than short-scale twelve-string bass in capable hands?? No. No, there is not.

Excellent playing. You make me want to buy a 12 string bass.

Dug Pinnack has been playing one for 2 decades or more. Love the tone on King's X tunes with it.

This is badass.

VERY COOL !!!!! GREAT FEEL !!!!!

Yes! This is awesome and inspiring.

This is absolutely excellent! Thanks!

What's the tuning of the strings? In the 8 strings one is the low octave, and the other is the octave right up, but here? Is it the 5°? or another octave upper?

@Fallinldols

croci17 it is one low and the other two are both one octave higher. But you could have one low one an octave higher and the last another octave higher if you had the right gauge strings. three octaves in one set would be so awesome. you would need a set for 12 string guitar to get the high G

Which one do you effect pedals ?

I'd sure love to see it again. Xlnt bass rendition. I'd looked for it some time back to show a friend but figured I hadn't searched well enough. After seeing this video though I thought to ask you. Great playing.

can someone link me to somewhere I can get one of these? :)

+Hobo Jeff I don't about being able to get a Hamer 12, but the Dean Rhapsody-12 is an awesome beast and won't break your bank. I've one for a while now and love it. Also, Gretsch just came out with a White Penguin-12 bass for Tom Petersenn. It's a gorgeous bass. Check it out. Seriously, check out the Dean R-12.

I love/play bass/guitar/jus string things period-want to start building even...that being said, the 12 string GOTTA be a headache to set up/play/maintain....sounds great tho👍👍🎶

You probably get this a lot, but I bet your rendition of Pearl Jam's Jeremy would sound beautiful!

That thing is awesome, unlike ERBs. Nice work!

Would you consider Selling the bass?

Why not just get one for yourself? I just got an 8 string at 65 and wish I hadn't waited.It is so much fun!

You need to be a band man. I love your playing. I'm a bass player too though I mostly play piano these days. But I know how much practice I had put in to develop my abilities.
