Davie504 10k unfortunately lol!
Robert Laughman Jazz bass

you should play fretless bass in more videos.
Davie504 I have to say I like the $700 one the most.
Conclusion: everything sounds pretty good if you play like Davie.
agreed
Truth.
True
yep
Good musician plays awesome solo with old shoe.
I can make any guitar sound like $5
What about a dollar tree plastic tiny guitar?
@@samtheman123 Ill do it like 3 take it or leave it
😂😂
its a BASS
oh that's cute, i can make it sounds like 1$
There's no doubt the $10K one has the sweetest tone, but you've absolutely proven that it's what you play that counts. The $100 bass played well totally does the job.
true and you can always buy pedals to improve the sound if you're on a budget.
Heh...I actually much preferred the $100 bass over the other two, but that's also due to the fact that I tend to prefer the P-bass sound. I've just never been a fan of the bridge and middle position sounds of a Jazz Bass, and well, for my tastes, that $10,000 bass just sounded extremely sterile and completely lacking in character to me. Not saying you're wrong, it's just a matter of difference in opinion and taste. Regardless, it just goes to show how tone is so incredibly subjective. No ill will intended. Cheers.
that 10K bass isn't worth it, not enough sound difference to justify the HUGE price gap from the other 2
It's 3 totally different basses: P-style split coil, J-style pickups, and humbuckers. The difference isn't just in the price!
I’ve been waiting for say that for a while.
Very impressive, but can you play “Iron Man” with Robert Downey .Jr
That is something he can't do

$700 sounds great in this styles of music

I personally couldn't stand the sound of the Fender bass. Rickenbackers, Warwicks, and Wals do it for me, but that's just me.

Yes, my dad always said “a poor workman blames his tools”. This is the reverse, a brilliant workman can do amazing things with the simplest of tools. I really appreciate your video!
Here you are wrong, not all tools are suitable for job quality wise. Cheap tools have limitations no matter how skilled operator is. Let's say I'm carpenter and iron cheep imitation chisel will not do for me much, because it will get blunt after few uses on hard oak. Which will need constant sharpening which will dramatically reduce production. Too hard stainless steel chisel tend to chip off quite quickly too. So you need to find sweet softness/hardness spot in metal on particular wood to maximise performance and quality. Usually expensive brands do them test before selling tools off and cheap brands just sell tools after furnace. I can bet same goes for music instruments.

@@Paxidermist Nemmo D333 had such a great rezponse, and here u are
Iya betul mas...i agree with u...
@@nemod3338 I disagree. Guy didn't say anything at all about the durability of the tools like your example. This is about the quality of the work produced with the tools. A skilled tradesman may get frustrated and fed up working with inferior tools, but they'll still generally be able to produce good quality results compared to a poorly skilled tradesman using the same shoddy equipment. In the end, both tradesmen will still be complaining about inferior tools (ROFL) but one will consistently give better results than the other guy in spite of the challenges the tools themselves present.
That 100$ "Lindo" actually sounds really good for its price tag ._.
And actually, here in Brazil, "Lindo" is the equivalent word for "Beautiful" -_-_-
Ur pic matches with ur comment
That's cause davie makes anything sound good.
O de 700 é o que tem o som mais PIKA
It’s weird with basses because the cheap ones always sound better
I like the way the $700 one sounds the best, for sure.
That one is my favourite too, sounds deeper
Sarah Miller 100th like

They all sound alike.
Same, the way the 10,000 bass sounds is just worse than the 700, and i also really like the 100 as well

Anuar Dorzhigulov Another BASS bites the dust?
I’d sell the 10 grand bass and buy lots of Fender basses.
i mean like-
Ibanez bases are personally my favorite. I recommend trying as many brands as possible
Idk that Fodera sounds so clean and the range is amazing. If you have the money I'd definitely take it. The Fender sounds good but is pitched a lil too high for my taste and it has that zzzz sound which drives me nutz. But honestly the Lindo didn't sound bad at all for $100. Still had that zzzz though
@@nouveaumanifesto My first bass was an Ibanez and its still my favorite. Have nicer electrics but just something about it. Never fails me.
@@nouveaumanifesto Have you ever played a Hartake bass? I come from an Ibanez to a Hartake and I personally like the most Hartake
I like 700 bass.
Yeah, me too. Hm...
I say a hundred doller guitar
Same for me. The J-Bass is my favourite here.
The $700 Jazz Bass in my opinion sounded the nicest of the 3 bases. For slap, definitely the Jazz bass.
For fingerpicking, I think the $100 P-bass sounds great for the price, although you can hear it distort slightly, sounds like the pickup is wound particularly hot. It has a nice attack but the Jazz bass... just sounds smoother.
The $10k Emperor bass does have a nice resonance in the low end that the other 2 can't match, however the bite and higher frequencies aren't replicated so well and it sounds like there's quite a big scoop in the mids. High end sounds... tinny, almost.
Almost seems the more you're going up in price, the better the bass and treble response, but the more scooped the mids become. I would love to hear these in a full mix with other instruments, to see which one sounded best in a full mix. I would think the Jazz bass would win out.
The 10k bass would be good for rap and blues
Max Fox I agree with your opinion.For fender jazz bass jus sounds a lot better when both others guitars.So I definitely would buy fender jazz bass.Abd I think,that 10k bass is jay a waste of money
700 has a nice bang
Wait what?
Agree with what Max says here.
To be honest, I think a lot of the difference is in the setup (action, etc). The $10K guitar sounds too rattly to me. If it were mine I'd be using a higher action and possibly different string gauge to get rid of that.
How about a cheap amp vs an expensive amp?.
will san Joking or not, this is pretty funny!
Mario Muñoz i think whitout an amp, he use the sound card for recording
I love the editing. Makes easier to compare. I prefer the sound of the expensive one. Sounds with presence and slightly hollow. But the difference between the three of them is not to big considering then huge difference in price.
where is the sienfield theme song
That song never existed
So did you Big Boy - it's "Seinfeld".
Big Boy spelt isn't a word
Mr Smith you mean he speltitid or speltitidid wrong?
Fun fact: It was played on a keyboard, not a bass.
Very impressive but what can you do with your entire bass collection?
so the 100$ one gets the job done
the 700$ one adds tone to it
and the 10000$ one just sounds different basically
not really "better" in my mind
at least not 1400% better
HECKproductions Yeah the more expensive ones probably feel allot better to play though.
The 10000$ one probably has a wider range of possibilities which aren't shown by the video.
I think that the fender has a little bit more "POP" to it, meanwhile the 10.000 $ one sound very very smooth i think you would hear more difference if it had no keys.
''BASSically''
i mean, the main difference is due to the wood used in them, the fodera have a really rich dark wood that tend to sound way bigger and add a lot of bass tone, while the fender is made with white wood usually, that make them sound really bright overall
Would have been nice to hear Davie’s commentary on how they played.
Very impressive... but can you play with winter gloves??
Check out music video of "Keep on Gallopping" from Finnish band Korpiklaani, a bassist in that video plays bass in winter gloves (mitts). It looks ridiculously awesome :D
very impressive, but what can your bass do on you?

Very impressive, but can you play "trapped under ice" by Metallica, under ice ?
Just as long as he doesn't play it under the influence of ice.😂😂😂
They all sound good. It's always been about the person playing finding their sound in an instrument. Being able to test out multiple instruments (that all have been setup the same) will let someone find something that fits them more so than spending a ton of money. I've got 4 basses. 1 home built, 2 warwicks, and a MM Sub series. On the prebuilts I played multiples of the same models cause it can be down to the specific instrument as to what works to find your sound on it. My home build I spent about 9 months on getting everything done proper to fit me.
Not bad for a $100 guitar. You can't beat the Fender Jazz Bass sound. The Lindo is sweet! My question would be how well the $100 stays in tune. Also how does each one feel to you?
Kevin Zoid staying in tune is a matter of tuners. If it doesn't stay in tune well enough you could just swap tuners. the feel is mostly determined by the shape and size of the neck and the setup (in my opinion). a good setup which feels good to you might change the whole 'feel' of the instrument.
if you were looking in to buying a budget bass, I hope this helped you out a bit
Vincent Koster the bridge is going to affect how well it tunes too. and the nut as well
Diego Mirones García really? that surprises me
Vincent Koster a good nut and bridge saddles will let the strings travel more freely allowing it to go up to pitch with minimal friction and the same goes for while playing so that when bending the nut won't snag the string and cause it to go out of tune. So if you have upgraded tuners and notice every few minutes you're out of tune it could be a bad nut or saddles. Of course you'll be able to hear a really bass nut rattle while playing so that's a dead giveaway when it's that bad
Very Impressive, but can you play "All the small things" on the smallest bass guitar you can find?
I think this video is proof that the artist is more important than the instrument, because it sounded great throughout! The higher end guitars were definitely better sounding, but you certainly get diminishing returns at that price point.
Jordan Martin actually the biggest difference between good and bad instruments is how you feel playing them. Im a guitarist, but im pretty sure its the same, and cheap guitars are just awkward, its sometimes even painful. Yeah sure you can play, but its waaay harder, also if he played at the top of his skill like some crazy ass jazz fussion or crazy funk, its very likely that he would have had problems with the cheap one
The more expensive the guitar, likely, the more they spent working on the fretboard.
It`s all about setup and electronics, you can make a cheap one sound really good,(and you don`t have to spend $10,000)! If you were to take the Fender and spend some money on it, it would be damn close to the $10,000 one!
Similar to my thought. Hook the $100 bass up to an inexpensive EQ pedal, and and fiddle with the low and mid range, and I suspect you could get it close to the big bad money bass. However, they may feel very different, and that's hard to show in video.
I thought the $700 bASS sounded best 👍
Me too bro
Yea
Maybe because i have the same bass lol
Fender got it right. 10.000,- for an overdose of fat and sugar? No thanks!
When a $700 bass sounds like a million bucks
I think it depends on who is playing it ;3
Fender knows how to make amazing sounding Guitars/Basses for a reasonable price
Yeah man it sounded way better
the biggest difference for me on this video was from the $100 to the Fender. From there it was minimal to the $10k bass
Gotta say... the Fender Jazz Bass sounds the nicest in my opinion. That being said, you can totally hear the $10K in the most expensive one. Wonderful sound.
the 10k is sounding the best.... but not 9.3k better
I agree
Justin Hung yeah same
Fender jazz bass I like
@@olid7947 Everyone saying "sounds better but not (x-y) better" on a "y instrument vs x instrument" have probably never played expensive instruments or even intruments at all, because it takes next to none instrument playing experience to know that sound isn't the only aspect of what the higher price brings within. Electric instruments in rock/metal genres in particular aren't going to sound that different in a mix, actually a good amp makes a mediocre guitar sound amazing. The build quality is what your fingers feel, but the pickups don't put through the cable. A high-end instrument might not (and probably will not) sound 10x better, however the feel from playing it is dimensions apart. Expensive instruments would not be a thing if they actually weren't worth the price (oh, hello, Gibson). Plug a cheap Ibanez through a Mesa stack and to an average listener it will sound no worse than a high-end ESP, but play a 2000$+ guitar for yourself and the thing just plays itself.
tl;dr expensive instruments are expensive for what they play like under your hands, not primarily for what they sound like
jony kohout I personally love ESP’s, especially the e-II’s, but they can’t beat a good prestige rg or one that is custom made
very impressive, but can you play 500 miles while walking 500 miles?
Harry Wixley I feel like he may actually do this, but he'll just walk a few miles every day for ~200 days and play like 3-5 notes every walk lol
At the time of writing, this comment has 500 likes. Impressive.
keep it at 500
The editing on this is scary spot on.... I slapped the like button right away....!
The $100 bass is tinny, the pickups are either underperforming or saturated, and the harmonics are weaksauce. I like the warmer tone and cleaner sound of the $700 bass although it lacks snap/punch, and the $10k one is more rounded. Is the $10k bass $9,300 better than the $700 one? No, not for me. But is the $700 bass $600 better than the $100 one? Absolutely yes.
DuckMySe
this comment sums it up beautifully, EXACTLY what i was thinking the whole vid, its definitely the best but not 10000 good lmao
I hear good potential in all of them but the cheapest one definitely has some limitations.
For those at the top of there game, getting that extra elite sound, that 1% better is worth it.
You read my mind bruh
Wait, you can have a bass for only $100? I regret being a drummer! XD
EtherFoxMIDI I don't, drumming is expensive but fun asf
EtherFoxMIDI You can have a bass for even less lol but they'll rarely survive at the first year of playing
Try being a pianist!
Or a double bass player. Those motherfuckers are expensive af
Well, bout every classical instrument is freaking expensive
Same dude, good drums are f*cking expensive
$700 one is more than sufficient imo.
Unless someone is a wizard with a bass there is no justification for buying a $10,000 one.
Ben Dover unless bass is like your entire life
and if you just started the $100 one is perfect too
WeZte Yeah ive been playing bass in a band with a 100 bass and it is Ok
The cheap ones are ok, they do the job.. If you are gigging though you should be looking at a step up from that though. I have a well worn Fender Jazz that I got second hand and I am going to get a Rickenbacker 4004L as soon as I can... Love them, beautiful sound.
As a bassist I'd say that differences are present in more aspects rather than just price. Weight, balance, pickups, and comfort when playing, for instance. If you are looking for your first bass, do not consider just the price of it. Try as many basses before buying your own, choose the one you feel more comfortable with and I promise it will do the job.
I started with a US$90 bass and I learnt a lot with it. You can do pretty good stuff with cheap tools, just as Davie showed us in this video.
Very impressive but can you play 'lights out' with the lights out?

I'm actually surprised at how much of a noticeable difference there is...
not really
@@refrivolous6069 There is of course, but it's not coming from the bass itself rather than the pickup. It makes 90% of the sound of the Bass. The tonewood and overall construction make the rest.
Put the same pickup on all three basses and they will sound so similar you won't be able to tell which one is which.
@@DoUrden09 truth
Ordinary Joe doesn't give a shit how much you spent on your bass.
If it works without any feedback or crackling and is in tune that's it.
Only suckers who spend big bucks will impress Bass players who are male 90per cent of the time, sadly.
I bought a $100 bass and with the strings it came with it sounded bad.
Then I put on some great quality strings and the it sounded great right away.
Very impressive, but can you play under the bridge and play it under the bridge?
Kisu b4 i was gonna wrote my comment, i was thinking the same way😂
100 is for beginners, 700 is value buy good sound and affordable,
10k is for recording purposes. Most recording co. would go for that.

James Forsyth R.I.P I want to buy a bass for my first time after me trying one. What was your first bass? And your others if you remember
James Forsyth also I suggest go to a pawn shop and find one.

700 is a clear improvement
10000 is also good but not worth 10,000
Honestle, can't tell the difference.
To me, the 10,000 dollar bass sounded the worst
Teal Canon well its with everything to price is exponential with the quality as the factor and you have to play an instrument to really judge the quality of said instrument.
Inversly exponential. Not A^(Bx) but A^(-Bx)

Very well, can you play under the bridge under a bridge?
BCM Lol my fav chilli pepper song too
Leo Xing same love that one!!
lol I just learned Under The Bridge
and only with the bridge pickup
Play the bridge section of the song under the bridge while under a bridge using only the bridge pickup
The $700 fender for sure. A good mix of low end and brightness
in what world can you compare a fender to a genuine deluxe fodera, LOOK AT IT. that aside, sound difference... fodera's are just 👌
Chbark the fender is a jazz bass therefore it is superior
Plug 'em into a loud amp in person and then you'll start to appreciate the volume balance between the different strings on the $10,000 bass, although you don't have to pay $10,000 for balanced pickups. Listening to a TH-cam video doesn't do much justice for hearing a bass live in person.
the fender sounds the best to me

Not factored in here:

Great video Davie504. Don't pay attention to the ignorant people who leave stupid comments. They obviously watched the video from the kindergarten classroom when they should have been taking their naps. You raise a good question that has been asked because many of us cannot hear a $10,000, $5,000, $2,000, or $500 difference between certain guitars/basses. I think for those who can afford expensive gear, we find a way to talk ourselves into it... and those can't, we find a way to talk ourselves out of it. It really just boils down to what feels good in your hands, is light on your wallet, and is music to your ears. No one instrument could ever please all players, so to each his own.Keep up the good work!
Keep in mind that a lot of expensive instruments are expensive because of the quality of craftsmanship. Usually, expensive instrument feel better to play (and probably be able to intonate them better). You can make any $300 guitar or base sound good by swapping out the electronics.
Very true
You are totally right. You are great
Absolutely!!! Very accurate comment! One can of course hear some difference, but difference in pricing is somewhat bigger than the difference in sound... Thanks for your comment!
You are right. but is true that the difference is not only in sound. the biggest difference in guitar, for example, is the construction. is easier to play the guitar (for me) with a straight neck. And the materials are better in an expensive guitar. It sounds different, but its not the only important fact.
1:29 no wonder it costs so damn much..

The 10.000 dollar bass actually sounds alot better, as it has a much "cleaner" bass sound to it. But for playing alot i think 700$ is better because its not 10.000 FRICKING DOLLARS to take care of!
Totally agree, the 10k bass sounds great, but not 10k great... There are WAY better basses you can get for your money, I'd much rather buy a wal bass than this 10k one.
on the 10k bass the range is a lot more full on each note, you could probably get pretty close if you tried a bunch of different pickups on the other guitars
Totally disagree. really listen, it does not sound better. Fodera's are great basses and nice works of art, but not even close to being worth 10k.
Kjetil Birkeland unless you know you're a Rockstar *coughs*
Rubin Safaya it's the rule of diminishing returns
Very impressive but can you play stairway to heaven while walking upstairs?
Endriu 5 yee
This is the BEST instrument comparison I've ever seen.
No talking, just simultaneous play and honestly, there isn't a HUGE difference when the player knows his sh...tuff!
okay i got a challenge, the whole Bee movie but all the words are bass notes
Alex Ottosson bass movie
Alex Ottosson do you know why you only got 21 likes
nay i doth not know Mr.Satan
Alex Ottosson because you didnt use the "impressive, but can you 'insert idea here'" formula
Very impressive, but can you play "My Name Is Mud" with mud?
I, as a avid primus fan, support this idea
SixxxStringSultan Ehhh... Primus sucks.
No they don't, your argument is invalid.
SixxxStringSultan and remember, mud spelled backwards is "dum".
***** that's their chant the crowd use he ain't hating, anything but!
Very impressive..but can you sing a bass line?

The fodera is obvioysly the best one because of the amazing preamp that it has. The Lindo does not sound $9900 worse though. There are basses as good as the Fodera that come with the same or even more features that will cost you less than $1000. You can also get a cheaper bass, refret it with brass or a fancy allow, get better pickups and preamp and you'd still have $8000 left for a decent second hand car.
amazing preamp? you're joking right? they're no different than shitty EMG ones. have you tried John East(East UK) preamps? now they are out of this world.
The point is that the Mike Pope preamp in the Fodera gives it that extra edge over the Fender and the Lindo. When you put up a video comparing a John East vs. Mike Pope preamp; then you can try to sell your opinion. Don't compare something that to something else without actually testing both.
I HAVE tested both... I work at a custom guitar shop.
That's exactly my point. The fodera sounds better but not because it has magic or has been varnished with dinosaur cum, but because it has electronics... which SHOULD, BY PRINCIPLE, be the cheapest part of any modern instrument. The reason for the Fodera's price tag is not only it's quality, but the amounts they produce. If Fodera was as big as Fender, they wouldn't need to price their instruments that way. Warwicks are in pretty much the same quality range and they're not usually 10 grand. There are always people to feel good about spending that kind of money on things that shouldn't cost that much.
Nothing beats quality workmanship.
A good player will strive to create the tone they desire from any instrument.
All I can say is, this bassist has learned to make anything sound awesome.
For a long concert or jam the $10,000 wouldn't fatigue the player as much.
And it, hopefully, won't fall apart in a couple of weeks.
I'd certainly watch Davie with a shitty bass or a great one, the guy is just pure talent.
But nowhere in my right mind would I even consider spending 10k on an instrument, and taking it out to perform. That's 10k that could be easily damaged or stolen in the blink of an eye. Too much anxiety for me.
that is what insurance is for....
$10,000 sounded the best, but not $9,300 better than the Jazz bass which sounded lovely too. Not a fan of the $100, sounds weak and I can imagine would sound worse in a mix with a band.
Fodera basses are renowned for their quality more so than anything, while it is highly debatable whether or not spending 10k on a bass is worth it, the Fodera should most definitely be the most finely crafted and fine-tuned bass of them all, and i'd hope at that price range it plays a whole lot better than a cheap squire or something similar of the sort.
Very true, Playability is a big part of the instrument. The best bassists, like Davie can make anything sound good, but for those of us with less talent, the playability can really affect how you play.
And it goes without saying that people can buy what they want. an instrument is as valuable as you see it to be. I'm sure collectors would want the more expensive one.
Will Kirk I agree, the real problem with cheap Instruments is playability and durability, some of them could sound good but they always some way have physical issues.... I used to own a "K-garage" jazz bass that many people used to say that the sound was awesome, but after 1 year playing it at rehearsals and few shows, the neck bowed and the truss rod didn't turn... bass was down....
The Fodera clearly has the best tone, and it's a gorgeous instrument to boot..... I'm not convinced it's nine grand better than the Fender, though. It's better, yes. Tone anyway. I've never played one so I have no idea how it plays, and yeah, that matters too.
its the law of diminishing returns, at that price point youre getting a betterr built instrument if not a much better sounding one
In cases like this, the artist has a great deal to do with sound. Davie can easily overcome a poor setup on the action with his skill. The second piece is Amp. That usually manages the Greater percentage of sound output. Finally, I think strings for the style to be played are important. I heard distant differences. But 100 buck guitar is a great start for a beginner and when they have some chops. They can shop for the upgrades.
'Very Impressive',but can you play "sandstorm" by darude in a sandstorm
Youre the first human ever to say sandstorm by darude rather than Darude sandstorm
@@Calilou52 That's true, I'll never spell that out.
That's Darudest comment I've seen all day.
Underwater Love, underwater could be fun
Idk, if he plays that song also he could play Tornado of Souls inside a Tornado 🌪
Very Impressive, but can you play Cool For Cats with Cats?
THAT SONG IS HILARIOUS. My friend sang it on rock band and the whole time she was like "do do so do doe so da da do"
Now expensive bass guitar market will go through recession...
