Ryan Martinie has been one of my favorite bassists for his tone as well as bringing a very technical style of bass playing to the metal genre, slapping and all.

I have a ng3 you can get the Warwick thumb tone out of it does just get gritty tones it get very very clean low end and miss super crisp

Nolly’s bass tone is by far my favourite. Every single varient of tone he’s had through every Periphery record has hit the nail for me on what i like.

The Bass tone of Clay Goober of Polyphia is freaking MASSIVE, and i love every single note that is played.

His name is goober holy shit Fitting for such an insufferably stupid pretentious band

Amos Williams takes the cake for me, not just because he's such a good bassist with such good tone, but because he, as well as the rest of tesseract, are such smart musicians, everything sits together SO well

Geddy Lee definitely has my favourite bass tone, the distorted high end and the clean low end is just so good

Dude, that 72 Jazz bass sounds insane. Especially on Snakes and Arrows Live or Clockwork Angels

I’ve always loved Tim Commerford’s tone. Rage Against the Machine.

Jon Stockman from Karnivool has the most amazing bass tones I've ever heard. They're impossibly huge and warm with all the clarity to hear the intricacies of his playing. Phenomenal!

Favorite Rock tone right now: Jon Stockman of Karnivool. Killer!

Amos Williams from Tesseract has probably my favorite with Nolly coming in close second

I’ve fallen in love with these basses in the past two weeks or so, and it’s an outstanding coincidence to see one pop up here. Bass tone? I don’t know how it gets better than Pino Palladino.

Always loved Chris Squire’s tone, especially on his solo work.

For me, Geddy Lee has the ultimate bass tone

Legend has it chris Squire,got his amazing tone by splitting his bass signal into two channels,one to an amped Classic S.V.T the other a marshall guitar head.i'am not sure how accurate that information is,you gotta do your own research on that matter.However,i do know he had a very unique picking style,in which incorporated using his pick and thumb simultaneously against the strings.

​get a dingwall ng bass and dg adam

Tim Commeford. No matter if it’s the stingray or the jazz that he’s rocking, it always sounds killer.

I'd go for Geezer Butler, such a brilliant bass player and I love that dark tone in Sabbath songs

Larry Graham, 'cause he sparked my interest in the bass when I was a kid. Of course, I didn't get a bass until a few months ago.. Never too late to start, correct?

Peter Gabriel is one of my favorite vocalists, the Lamb Lies Down on Broadway is my favorite album ever!

Geddy Lee's tone on Red Barchetta has always been my ultimate rock bass tone.

I love Tim Commerford , such a cool dude and dang thats a big funk rock sound

@scott's bass lessons I love John Myung and his bass tones and sound, form dream theater and I've always loved the legendary Billy Sheehan and his three fingers playing style

I have known Sheldon Dingwall for years... he started the company here in Saskatoon and its still going strong. He developed one beast of a bass line.

Geddy Lee has my favourite bass tone. His technique gives him such an unique sound.

Definitely Geddy Lee, I love the growl in his bass tone

The Ox, Mr. Thunder Fingers, Mr. John Entwistle had the ultimate rock tone.

I have been digging Nolly's tone for years!

I'm a metalhead guy, but haven't really had a favourite rock bass tone until I found Nolly's. That is the ultimate bass tone for metal, and eversince that, I'm in love with it and I would love to have a Dingwall NG-2 or 3 bass someday.

Pino Is my ultimate rock bassist hot damn he's tone is amazing

My pick has to be Chris Squire, a true pioner of the "lead bass" style, such an original tone.

Actually Adam Nolly has the exact bass tone that I totally dig!

Lemmy's bass tone is the best metal bass tone ever recorded, it feels like ur being hit by a tank when u listen to it.

Justin Chancellor has a huge tone, definitely my favorite.

I'd say John Paul Jones from Led Zeppelin! For me, Led Zeppelin II has the ultimate rock bass tone

NO DOUBT SIMON !!! JOHN PAUL JONES IS SO INCREDIBLE IN LED ZEPPELIN!!! ABSOLUTELY MY FAVORITE TONE AND ALL THE MANY OTHER INSTRUMENTS AND RIFFS AND GROOVES HE GAVE TO ZEPPELIN!!! MY FAVORITE BASS PLAYER OF ALL TIME !!!J.P.J !!!

honestly Dingwalls are probably the best basses on the market, sounds huge, fanned frets and looks bad ass. I NEED IT!!

THIS bass in the "Prayer Position" playthrough video!! I've been a 100% finger style player my entire career and never thought I'd EVER play with a pick.... until I heard this bass. It's a game changer. It's turned my entire approach to the instrument completely on it's head! Very exciting!

Geddy Lee has my favorite rock bass sound.

Jason Newsteds tone especially on the black album

Tim Commerford. It's just perfect tone that cuts through the mix beautifully

Rex brown is my favorite bassist. A lot of people don't give him due credit... Tone and riffs an absolute monster.

Conner Green from Haken has to be my most favorite tone that I’ve heard

There’s a whole world of these amazing underground bassists and bass tones, those 2 are my absolute favorite in the rock/metal game right now

Favorite tone would always be from nolly getgood. First time i heard periphery , i immediately searched for the bassist. Monstrous tone ever

Geddy Lee. The Catalyst for me since i picked up the bass. 40 Years ago this Christmas. Oh dear!

Ultimate rock sound: John Paul Jones I especially like John Paul Jones work with Led Zeppelin. His contribution to many of their songs is enormous and one of the influences that got me interested in the bass not so long ago.

Ultimate tone: Ryan Matinie of Soften the Glare/Mudvayne.

Been loving Fieldy´s bass tone all my life

Geddy Lee definitely got the ultimate rock tone !!

My favorite tones are: Chris Squire Toshiya (from Dir en Grey) Nolly

Ultimate bass tone for me: Justin Chancellor - Tool!

Congrats on the material... your work is amazing! Thanks for that! I like Roger Glover rickenbacker tones, especially on "Hghway Star"... also Stu Hamm "P" sounds on Satriani's album "Strange Beautiful Music".

Love the sound of Nolly’s bass tone

Favorite rock bass tone: Tom Drummond from Better than Ezra on “Good”

For me, Tim Commerford has the best rock bass sound. Hands down!

Scott! My favorite rock bass sound is Geddy Lee’s. Keep on this awesome channel!

Tim Commerford! So much tone from his attack on the strings!

if i can't say here that Nolly's bass sound makes me wet the most, i would have to say Les Claypool, amazing tone and playing style

Metallica’s late, great cliff burton, love his work and sound, may he rest in peace🙏🏻❤️also a huge fan of slipknots Gray Paul (may he rest in peace aswell) and current Metallica bassist Rob Trujillo🤘🏻

Christopher Wolstenholme - I love his Rock and synth sounds.

Geezer Butler has the ultimate tone, the corner stone of metal
