@rustyshackleford9452 the bass plays an octave lower on a few songs, some of them are in B flat and 3 of them in A flat, but when the guitars play their lowest strings, the bass is in unison with them
Eh not a fan of the sound. I prefer tuning the bass up to F#. It allows the bass and the 7 string of baritone guitar tuned down to F# to differentiate their tonality within a mix. Bands like Meshuggah and Vola make this work and its fantastic. But hey if that setup works for you or anyone else then who i am to be gatekeeper?
A0 is kind of the low limit for bass notes to be discernible. That F#0 is as good as it gets. But I am not sure if it is worth the hassle to go that low.
Human hearing can generally go down to 20hz which is why most headphones and speakers go that low as a limit. 20hz is an E0 so most people will be able to hear this low F#. The biggest problem for hearing low notes is that people think you need to be closer to the speaker, when in actual fact you need to be further away to give the wave space to form. An F#0 is about 23hz, which has a wavelength of 14 metres, so you'd need to be quite a distance away to get the most out of it
No, lows are going through the 10's, and the highs are going through the 15's. This is intentional. And it sounds incredible, and there is no danger of blowing a speaker
So this is a customer of mines bass guitar. This is what he wanted, I would have recommended NOT tuning this low at all with this instrument. It is just not designed for this low of a tuning.
Play Meshuggah on it
Little known fact, Meshuggah's bassist doesn't actually tune his bass an octave below the low F. He meets the guitars at the same frequency.
@@GregJonson I knew that. I just think it would sound cooler if he played it the octave lower.
@@GregJonson Not on their last album

@@GregJonsonhe plays 5 strings in drop Bb
I have the exact same bass, and I tuned it to drop F# using .50 to 1.35 gauge strings 💀
Fuck yeah flap them shits!
1.35?? I hope you mean .135
@@joshuastubbs1930 yeah, I meant .135, whoops lol

That is ridiculous. Thank you for the knowledge.
Had a standard F0 tuning for a audition. Ridiculous 😅
this is awesome u did it perfect. getting it to sound audible through a cell phone mike is almost impossible
Those strings thiccc
How did you set it up? Action, truss rod especially
lmao this is ridiculous
🇵🇷 PUERTO RICO MENTIONED 🇵🇷
Love this video! Peace from Maryland (for the moment)!
It sounds pretty cool, but I wish you'd recorded it with a better mic.
Yeah me to. But sometimes you just got to throw and go! Hahaha
@@Curranproducer I still got an impression of the sound. Do you still have it tuned to F#0?
@genseric3031 it is back with the owner, and still crushing for him.
Wow that's something. I typed it just as you started chugging
Damit kannst mit 🐋 kommunizieren.
I assume this is German for CHUGG CHUGG. 😊
@@Curranproducer ich selber mag Blues. Das ist mir echt zu tief. 😄
Hey would anyone know the Ibanez’s model name?
sick sound, and also great shirt bro!
It sounds like a G# because of the mic i think

Sounds bad through the cellphone mic
Skill issue. It’s really not hard to tell
physics issue mam.@@gub4941

yea well to produce a wavelength of 14 meters a speaker needs to be 14 meters in diameter to produce that fundamental frequency. @@TheLowest
Exactly the video I needed. Thanks!
Now play de chao batido
Literally have? As opposed to metaphorically having a 195?
yes. LITERALLY a 195 gauge string. it is insane.
Did you mean the lows are through 15’s and highs through the 10’s?
No, lows are going through the 10's, and the highs are going through the 15's. This is intentional. And it sounds incredible, and there is no danger of blowing a speaker
Hi!Cool bass and sound!!!Model basses ,-Ibanez..???
Just a standard Ibanez 5 string. Nothing fancy, stock pickups
This bass farting.
I just started playing guitar but i think I'm doing some good things. I put up some music on my channel here.
It sounds like a fart with bubbles, better get yourself a multiscale bass.

You can hear all the notes throughout the range in a balanced way
no you cannot.
Yeah, you must have magic ears. I couldn’t hear much of anything.
I use a .170 on an ibanez srff806bks for drop F. It works great.
