      Daniel Caballero To be honest when I saw the outfit/glasses and what looks like a wood panelled wall, I was half expecting to see a crt monitor with windows 95 running on it in the background.
      It makes me feel so old that I remember all these ‘retro trends’ from when they were current 😂.
      Awesome playing though! Goes to show that practice and talent are the key not gear. She’s spent the money where it counts tbf, the subs are great instruments, and the b3 can do most bass tones convincingly enough that 99% of people would never know it wasn’t the actual amp/effects being used.

      @@hmlqrt2716 Honestly, every time a guitar player borrows my bass and wants to play a song or two, it usually sounds pretty bad. By some reason very few guitards can nail the groove when playing the bass. A bass is not a simpler form of a guitar with two strings less. The groove, including usage of dead notes and syncopations is completely different from what most guitarists might play. (I have played both guitar and bass for ages so I do have some insight in both worlds. Julia is a great bass player. I'm good, but I wish I was so right in the pocket as she is).

    To answer questions about Julia & her gear. (She's from Poland)
    Hi everyone! My name is Julia, I'm 18 year old self-taught bass player. I play bass since December 2013.
    My gear: -Sterling by Music Man S.U.B. Ray4 -Zoom B3 (interface and effects)
    Q: Whats program do you use for record the bass sound?
    A: I use Audacity
    Q: How do u record with such an amazing sound ?
    A: I plug in bass to interface audio, then i record it in DAW software
    Q: Are you using an amp before connecting to your interface?
    A: I plug the bass straight to interface and then I add a little bit of compression in Audacity :)
    Q: which strings / sizes do you play?
    A: DR Hi-Beams 40-100
    Thanks for watching my videos!
    I don't take requests! :)

      @@xZoEvil It's a Musicman SUB bass. A great bass and excellent value for money, I believe the earlier ones were made in the USA, later ones in Indonesia, some of the differences between them and the Sterling or Stingray; the body is poplar instead of ash and has no body contours, a 2 band eq rather than 3 band and the neck is gloss painted. Not sure about the hardware or pickup, but I suspect budget versions/copies of those fitted to Ernie Ball models.

      @miTHexum Is it so hard to believe people can feel emotions listening to a beautiful cover of an artist that has tragically passed away at a young age? You the type of guy to be blaming people for tearing up while watching a good movie. Just because you don't have emotions doesn't mean other people don't have them either.

      miTHexum well for me it’s not about the girl but more about Mac Miller. Idk if it’s the same for the other commenters but speaking for myself.
