However, I've been told whales have been loving Joe's grooves for years now. They went nuts when the band played TrenchFest down inside the Mariana Trench last year, and you can see why.
0:29 Joe has ascended to such god levels of bass that he does not need a strap anymore, the bass just rising up to perfect playing level whenever he thinks of playing it
The MM Joe Dart I has a 45 65 85 105 custom set of the EB steel FWs also half Group II, half Group III, if some would like to recreate without access to single strings.
I need the world to know that if you watch Jack's face closely starting around 1:26 you can see him do a little smile as he thinks of the joke before he says it.
"You think Vlance Armstrength is shifting into the active bass-boost granny-gear in the French Alps? No, this is a 1982 single-speed Bridgestone; you're eating 4 pounds of white flour pasta a night, just put it in the work. Cut from a tree, okay? Stop whining!

I'm gonna memorize this shit so I can bust it out like Jules in Pulp Fiction. It can be used for anything. Oh, my dog pooped in your flowerbed? Look, do you think Valnce Armstrength is shifting into active bass-boost granny gear in the French Alps? No. This is a 1982 single speed bridge-stone, you're eating 4 pounds of pasta a night, just put it in the work, cut from a tree, okay? Stop whining! NO MORE GOVERNMENT SUBSIDIES FOR ACTIVE BASSES!!!
Incidentally, a couple of years after this video came I started playing bass, and it's so true. It's quite cool how far changing technique will take you in terms of tone.

True. This is something I wish I had learned when I was younger. Joe makes awesome music on simple basses. I think he even played on a $200 short scale Squier P-Bass on some Vulfpeck tunes. He still sounded great. As long as your instrument is set up properly, stays in tune, doesn't have crackling electronics, or loose hardware, you're good. If you still sound like trash with everything in good working order, it's not the instrument's fault. All the fancy woods and electronics will not save you if you don't practice and learn good technique.

Jack Stratton is a fricking international treasure. I want him to make a stand up show or a podcast so bad!
He's right where he needs to be
You can check the holy trinities it's as close as you will get to a podcast from him
Can I get a bumper sticker that says “no more government subsidies for active basses” please? Thank you.
Aiming for this one to hit top comment and make it into Vulf merch.
what is that volume knob controlling though
It adjusts the balance of funkiness in our universe
*extremely low volume knob
Wet 'n' Dry
Neck speed
It adjusts the amount of -vulf-.
JACK - “You think this bass isn’t versatile, you’re not versatile!”
NATE - "UHUM"
HAHAHAHAHH THATS SOME FUNNY SHIT
We had to wait until 2022 at the Joe Dart II, when Nate couldn't hold his laughing back anymore. 😊
Sadly, this bass is so low and funky that dogs cannot hear it.
However, I've been told whales have been loving Joe's grooves for years now. They went nuts when the band played TrenchFest down inside the Mariana Trench last year, and you can see why.
I watch this at least once a day. Vulf saved my life. And also, this drummer is killer!
This is the best TED talk I’ve ever seen
JACK. STRATTON. ON THE AGGRESSIVE. PITCH.
I watch this video at least 5 times a week to maintain my mental health
* Looks decripition *
*Jack Stratton - agressive pitch*
I get this vibe that Jack was born with headphones on.
0:29 Joe has ascended to such god levels of bass that he does not need a strap anymore, the bass just rising up to perfect playing level whenever he thinks of playing it
Probably one of my favorite videos in all of TH-cam land
Its $2,000 not including tax. Just in case you're wondering..
i could get a bongo or a stingray for less, not worth
Zack Mash: Not brand new. Street price on a Ray starts at $2050.
@@mikewattdisciple they hand brand new ones up in store for 1350-1800
Soooo pricey!
I'll stick with my Ric for that price, but I still love this tone.
This video will forever be absolutely legendary
1:47 drummer cracked me up 😆
AdamVonBadam yeah same
Shoot and I was just like "ya those tape wound strings make all the difference" little did i know
Joni Obermeyer They’re tapewounds aren’t they? I thought that too, even though he said flatwounds
They're most likely Ernie Ball Flatwounds which are very bright but feel like flatwounds.
Indigo Bass yeah they are but I was saying like to think just tape wound strings make all the difference all by themselves
Could be those half round ones though!
Kyuuga The cobalts or the "group" flats though?
i’ve watched this video about a dozen times
this is my religion
That first Hollywood swing line sounded amazing.
Best sales pitch for one of the sexiest tones I’ve heard in a long time. I love it.
The stand allows for greater dancing ability, unlocking maximum potential
That smile at the end, the man loves his job.
“…It’s not versatile. *YOU’RE* not versatile.”
humbled
Happy 1 year anniversary of this beauty of a vid
These guys need their own tv show
good, I almost forgot to watch this today
the art in Dart
I live life one Joe Dart-neckbob at a time. I get tingly inside when he does those fast ones.
That volume knob turns up the neck intensity, and it doesn't turn it down.
Is this the best guitar/bass ad ever?
Who would win?
Three eq knobs
Or
One big volume B0i
With those neck muscles, I'm sure Joe Dart could become an F1 driver
"We put a unmistakable, can't miss it, volume knob."
"What is that controlling?"
Can't get any better than that
3 on E finally got antwaun singing on it :)
How is it humanly possible to play this fucking tightly? There truly is no musician quite like Joe Dart
I have watched this 4 times a day for the past week and a half what is wrong with me?
juliaplaysgroove does that Joe Dart Signature bass justice in Dean town.
You guys are the best. Love your music, love your clips!
Omg it's FLYING
Exactly what a bass should be. The sound is in your hands; the rest is in your amp.
This is the pinnacle of human interaction.
Gotta love it when the video starts with making you remember San Andreas
"Jack Stratton - aggressive pitch"
I love it
I fucking love jacks energy
1:25 always makes me laugh my ass off
Bernard Edwards RIP
you know what they say
it really does go
These guys have way too much fun! Hilarious as always
Volume knob is just a bit too excessive
BASS DART STR8 TO THE HEART
FYI Vulfpeck woul;d be the coolest cartoon!
Looks like EB's take on the 90s Ibanez Roadster, but with a heftier price tag - I like it!
You know that you’ve made it when Nate Smith comes along to jam out with you just to showcase your signature Music Man Bass guitar.
Yeah it really does go
Came here only for that "Bernard Edwards thing" section of the video, that thing is amazingly simple yet difficult to practice
''No more government subsidies for active basses!''
''Talk to 'em!"
Hey this was uploaded on my birthday!
THIS IS SO DOPE !!!
2:18 using his nose to give the strings that special tone
I'm sold! Time to go buy a black and white striped shirt
I had no idea a the time that this was teasing 3 on E.
Tyler I think it wasn’t. Jack just liked the phrase “3 on E” so much he made a song about it.
Why am I coming back to this video ? Someone please explain me
We need daily dose of, "You're not versatile!" to continue life
Here it is, the video that gave us plenty of Vulf memes
Fucking killer man. Joe is the man.
Thanks yt recommendations
NEED
So u getting one??
Love it
i love how jack just stands around here, and that's his contribution
For $4,000 I want Joe to deliver it to me.
You can taste the blue cheese out of this bass. Its so funky that its tangy
Every time I pay attention to what they’re saying, I feel like I’m not fully paying attention to what they’re saying
Wow I so love that bass !!! Where can I buy one here in Canada???

Nobody can jibberish like Jack
wow it was so nice for joe darts parents to name him after a bass
the bass WAS his parents
This comment is awesome
Between him and Cory Wong, Vulfpeck has some very conveniently named members.
Comments like this inspire me to continue paying my internet bill.
The video was pretty funny too.
Lol i cant believe you believe this what an idiot
Both embarrassed and oddly emboldened by how often I come back to this video.
same
I watch it like twice a day, no shame here
I'm on my 12th watch at least
Preach
Literally saved it on my phone at one point, til that phone broke
I like how Jack is saying all these nonsensical things and Joe and Nate are just going along with it.
I imagine they’re very used to it at this point
starting 1:41 "uhuh uhumm yeah that's the secret uhuh yeah that's it"
@@katjoe1974 I was about to say that
"He's nonsensical", you're nonsensical!
The more times you listen the more sense it makes.
This is by far the most that Joe Dart has spoken in the past 7 years.
Well he done that interview a couple years ago, he used most of his words for the decade
Wait until 2020 and we’ll get a joe dart spoken word album

They hated him because he told the truth.

"These very strings."

Hmm... improbable yes, impossible... definately not. He could have taken them off there and then and mailed them personally.
I absolutely love how Jack keeps looking back at Joe for approval every time he plays the bass
