I adore my Yamaha BB735a! I call it my "monster of the deep" because it's got such an amazing deep bass tone that envelops you like a warm hug. I was able to set its action nice and low without any fret buzz, so it's really easy to play. I'm never getting rid of this bass!

I've been blown away by schecters recently, got their P4 Exotic and recently a J4 in seafoam and they're incredible. Also first p and jazz style basses I've owned.

I do like the 0-fret design of the Cort Elrick. These are very rare nowadays

@@GianmarioScotti their current BTBs for example the BTB845

I own a single cut BTB846, and the thing is a pure monstrosity. It doesn't have as big of a bass boom as my Warwick, but the overall grit and tone is just amazing, especially when downtuned. In normal tuning, the tonal characteristics are surprisingly warm with that "Ibanez crisp" treble.

I enjoy these collection series videos. Moving forward, how about doing complete pedal boards within an established budget? Every pedal board in each budget range should at minimum have a Tuner, compressor and a preamp/DI. Need to include cost of pedal board, cables and power supply. I think this could be very interesting and help bass players that are contemplating building their own pedal board.

For me the best bass at 1000 is the HumanBase Roxy4 ! Amazing bass with great work on it + electronics

agree with you, the best bass I played, better than 2000$ basses

Thanks for remembering the neck dive thing and saying that budget basses are perfectly usable in the real world of making music even at a top professional level.

I am very happy with my $900 fender Japan Aerodyne PJ. Great tone, plays like a dream.

As an idea, could you maybe do a small selection of which basses (and amps and even pedals) are good at second hand prices.

Yay! A mention of my G&L L2000! Also have a Sire V7, a lawsuit MIJ EB3, a MIM Fender P-bass, and a Hofner Acoustic.

Saw this for guitars on the thomann channel. Of course you do it for bass now ^^ Nice!

I was lucky and pleasantly surprised to come across a used 1982 Gibson Victory Bass Bolt on , Comfortable neck , Rosewood, Small frets and amazing versatile pick up Mine and very happy Would love to hear Lars rip on it for sure !

I saw that Cort bass at my Local Music Store. Its a great piece of kit!

I have the Sire Marcus Miller D5 you showed and I LOVE IT 🙂 For under 1000 euros I'd love to have the Epiphone Jack Casady

My Sandberg Electra VS4 .. bought it 12 years ago , and still play it often

i bought a cort /elrick and love it thanks so much

I love my Fender Meteroa. You can find them under $1000 on reverb or $1200 new.

I definitely want a Cort Elrick! I also like the Yamaha! A really good one I picked up used was a Washburn Taurus. I play it everyday!

I recently bought an Aria Pro ll 313 MK-2 Detroit and though it required a little nut work, is unbelievable for around 5 bills. Super tight build, great balance and weight, and really has an authoritative bark. I've had it for a few months now and it's just as good, if not as fancy, as anything I've played, but gets many extra points for being a unique Fender alternative with much more to offer. A more articulate p/j with 24 frets and that Aria Pro ll SB style body hangs perfect. Roasted, light satin finish, not a sharp edge on it. Really simple and solid. The neck has been a rock even in my drafty Northern Minnesota apartment.

Digital tortoise pickguard sucks. 😆 That's my only complaint.

I got a 800 € Bass collection. A music man ray 34 (500 € on eBay) and a fenix by young chang jazz bass (300 € on eBay) I put flats on the jazzbass and im very happy with the versatility of my little collection :)

Nice collections man! I like the 3rd no just because of the money (?)

What happened to the Ibanez SR600E-AST from the video thumbnail? No mention in the video.

What post processing do you use at the bass tracks? It sounds not like a clean DI input but a bit like a 1176 compressor with all buttons pushed or an Amp with cab and a parallel DI?

Belo vídeo!!!!👏👏

have you tried the fender junior jazz bass? MIJ Short scale Jazz

wer ist the Fender player series Jazz bass Mexico :D

A used Spector Rebop is great and can sometimes be found in this price range

You got it right with the G&L L2000 Tribute.

I want a G&L tribute to bad!!

Man, I was just getting ready to say Yamaha BB734A/BB7345A and ya beat me to it. Yamahas Basses are fan (f'n) tastic: quality, sound, and price ya can't go wrong!

There was a time then you could buy an ovation magnum I or III, it's the best for it's price

Thnx guys from Arizona.

The best sub $1000 base I have ever played is my Sire P7 5 string. I have other basses that are much more expensive, but my Sire keeps up with most of them.

For 1k i would recommend to check out the Human Base Roxy B4 and B5 Models. I had one for years, palyed over 200 Concerts with it. It was a good fit.

What would I get for a Thousand Bucks ? Marcus Miller M7 5 String Harley Benton HB-60 Epiphone EB-3 I got the Harley Benton Beat Bass specifically get that early ‘thonk’ Macca tone. While rather liking the tone with the bundled roundwounds, I went and put Pyramid flats on it as intended. A month later I put the rounds back on. Much nicer sound to my ear. I MAY at some point put some flats on my P or J, or I may just put some damping foam under the rounds as required. The HB Ukulele bass IS great fun. I may have to reset the nut on mine because the open string tunings don’t match the fretted notes. The nut on mine is leaning forward a little. I got a Marcus Miller V7 years ago, 2017. It’s Great. My goto bass is my Modulus Q5, she covers most ground. The rest are for funzies

Just tried an ibanez btb 845 and it was awesome, but since I initially thought I would need the multi scale btb in order to play prog/djent and tune down to G or F#, I was wondering if this 35" btb 845 could do the job? And in the same time, be more versatile for other genres (easier to play high chords etc).. What do you guys think?

@EnergyChasms

Жыл бұрын

For G or F# on a 35" I would recommend using significantly thicker strings, which may require filing the nut. However, I personally much prefer a 37" for keeping those low tunings extra tight, as I don't particularly like strings thicker than .145 You could also go the Meshuggah route, and tune your E string to F, keeping your B string, or even giving yourself a low A. There's also the digitech drop, which is a great pedal and plenty of touring bassists in the djent/metalcore scene use it.

@@EnergyChasms Thx a lot for your answer! Yeah I'm not sure to be down for really thick strings.. I think it's a matter of how comfortable I am on a multi scale then, but they're impossible to find in shops here in France! So maybe it will end up as a mix of 35", a bit thicker strings and a drop pedal.. Oh well x)

I have the Schecter SLS Elite 4. It's fully kitted with Fishman Fluance pickups, ebony fretboard, stainless steel frets and a very well manufactured through-neck design. Mind you, I think it has gone up in price over the last year. So it probably doesn't count.

Do they make a Lefty?

My pick would be : Sadowsky Metroexpress 21 Vintage and a Harley Benton Enhanced MJ-4EB 😊

Two amazing basses around 1000 euros for me are Godin shifter and human base roxy, both better than 2000 euros basses. Lag basses are excellent too. Tribe bass and guild starfire are great too, better than my other basses (ibanez, fender us, Yamaha, sandberg) but not as good as Godin, lag and human base

09:01 I have that bass! Purchased it 4 years ago (exactly on 19.03.2020, just checked my invoice haha) for 387€. That's a beast of an instrument, for its price. Highly recommend it!

1k two 4 String basses: Definetly one Ibanez Soundgear bass, the neck is for me still one of the best for playing fast stuff. And one from Yamaha in a PJ Configuration. Both companies have absolut solid and good quality. Better than some Fender high price basses. Regarding the price the Fender quality control is a shame! My second hand perci is okay. I saw Fender Instruments in shops where i couldn't believe my eyes.

I'm German American and it seems bass is in our DNA

I have a Squire late 50s vibe p-bass, which is amazing for around 500$

I am getting a 90's era Peavey Cirrus5 string for $1300 w/original hardshell case

Fender rumble studio 40 & squire contemporary jazz 5 🎉🎉🎉

Great video! Thanks! You kinda made a collection with my current 2 bass combo in the 1000 bucks range. Sire P5-4 and Sterling Stingray 25CA. A 4 and 5 string combo, lovely sounds and so much possibility. Love these two together. I haven’t found a situation where they don’t fit.

Yamaha bb735a tmb

I like a lot my Yamaha bb434, but my Godin shifter kills her

Michael Kelly, Fender Aerodyne, Ibanez SDR600...

If second hand basses are allowed, a used korean lakland skyline 55-01, upgrade pickups to nordstrand zen blades, thats an insane bass for the money.

I was a little disappointed not to hear the fretless at the end of the video - some dodgy editing? Nonetheless, always nice to be reminded of what's out there, in different price ranges. Thanks for the review.
