@@adityaaddrix9679 haha thank you! I’m working on deletion cult right now!

@@olof572 thank you!!

@@-thenegativeshadow-2245 thank you!

@@MaximumPasta thank you! The clean part is pretty funky

@@pvdd1e932 haha thank you! The quick switching was probably one of the hard parts of this song

@@lily13337 thank you!

@@AzulYoshi thanks! I found there weren’t many good demos of this bass either. In this video I changed nothing on the bass except the strings. I changed them from the stock flatwounds to round wounds even though it may not be as good for the rosewood fretboard.

@@RyuGuitarsdo you get a lot of neck dive on it? To me it looks like it wants to dive

@@AzulYoshi that’s definitely my biggest complaint. Playing in classical position was pretty tough because I’m using energy to keep it from diving.

@@haydenh3217 thank you! childchewer was infinitely harder haha. The solo in that song was pretty intense.

@@RyuGuitars very nice!! I thought so, it seems like the left hand is non stop on that one

@@seelvus7771 thank you!*

@@RyuGuitars haha meant it in a good way. one of the best covers i've ever watched, just flawless

@@seelvus7771 oops sorry, I meant to put an exclamation mark haha! I appreciate your comment!!

@@mr_lastname05 definitely a good song to showcase the fretless bass on

Fr my fav song off Cabinet

EAEADGbe usually, some songs like this are tuned down another half step down

@@lebarak69 yup it’s not too hard honestly, it’s D#G#D#G#C#F#A#D#

@@RyuGuitars oh so the good old drop EA but half a step down

@@PossiblyABird thank you! I’m incredibly hyped for new IA and possibly Orphan

@@myselph1761 they most likely are out of tune haha but the fret wrap is causing it to sound out of tune on the open notes and I’m having to play the octave up for a lot of the parts because it was written for an 8 string. Thank you! Edit: I went and listened and it’s definitely the fret wrap causing it to sound out of tune on the open notes

@@RyuGuitars Hey! Like I said, the only small gripe I had with the video, but I always appreciate when musicians recognize their minor flaws and strive to improve. Thank you sir. :)

@@myselph1761 thank you!

@@urqu1d130 haha thank you! You have great taste in music then

@@miguelguitaridk if you save up to about 1800-2000 you could get a really nice used 8 string kiesel, but I understand that it’s a stretch. Ibanez makes pretty great instruments though. I’ve played a 7 string that was in that price range for years and it was great. I would recommend an Ibanez if you’re gonna be in that budget

@@RyuGuitars thanks a lot! also your videos are great, your playing is so flawless, keep up the amazing job!

@@miguelguitaridk thank you!!

@@miguelguitaridk also I just thought of an obvious answer as well. Ormsby makes some pretty great guitars as well for a good price. If you can wait for a sale you can get an 8 string from them for a good price. The ormsby im playing in this video is great

@@burritofoe thank you!

@@tubby.custardd thanks! It’s an Alexis crimson nitro 2 using the GGD modern and massive ekit on my computer

@@nickrodriguez9848 haha thank you. I don’t think the fretboard was that dirty though lol, the grain of the wood sorta has that look to it

@@RyuGuitars oh yeah now that you mention it that makes more sense lol. Love the cover

@@incongruous4 it’s an Ibanez btb 845v I converted to B standard

@RyuGuitars thanks. Looks cool. Also, good job on the cover

intro looks so fun to play too bad i suck

@@carlmarker9257 yup they’re unironically good haha. I’m working on a cover of their song right now but the whole Battle of Yaldabaoth album is really good. EGG is good too but I like this one more

@@carlmarker9257 thank you!

@@SixDigitOsu thank you! This song was definitely a big challenge

@@MikeAngelo7604 thank you!

@@ravonpayne9922thank you! Nothing crazy, I just use my iPhone 14 Pro. Sometimes I have to edit the lighting a little but it’s usually unchanged. I use an LED lamp with a brightness reduction film over it as my lighting source

@@TheExecrationBand thank you!

Ryu's teacher over here. He's been learning how to play for 2 months

this shit’ll prob take 3 years, possible in 1 or 2 if you practice alot

@@xoxxzy I’ve been playing for about 8 years but this song isn’t particularly hard, might take a couple years experience to play comfortably

@@RyuGuitarsare you self taught ?

@@seba.4926practice every day for around 1-2 hours. hopefully but i’m self taught so maybe not

@@Djdross I agree, thank you! It is the Ando San signature

@@mr_lastname05 thank you!

@@Shanan81 I appreciate you!

@@Shanan81 thank you!!

@@Shanan81 haha thank you!

@@Shanan81 haha that can be debated, but thank you!

@@Shanan81 thank you!!
