shows a huge BOSS GT-6B.... Victor: "tonight i'll be using it as my tuner"
I think not even for that, he doesnt need a tuner, that was just a merchan, I think lol
im just laughing like hell right now XD
Man it’s pretty to distract from that rack... it’s perfect
😂😂😂
I love Victor Wooten. There's people who try to be humble, and then there are people who are TRULY humble. He always gives credit where it's due, and takes it where it's due.
The best Rig Rundowns are the ones where the artists personally take us through their equipment... I love Victor
Unlike, fucking Santana!
The best best ones are the ones where they are playing and showing the effects
THAT CABLE
5 years later and they aren't still dominanting rigs, I wonder why
@@abcrx32j The company that makes them is out-of-business. Not sure if quality was a factor, but from what I heard, Apple sued ZZYZX company who made the SnapJack cable, for the use of a magnetic cable.
@@frenziedminds A lot of cheap manufacturers uses the magsafe tech for phone chargers yet they decided to sue someone using it for a different application lol
"It's got like, technology in it. It's kinda weird" Oh the Wootens, what an awesome family.
"It's got like... Technology in there." Thank you Reggie. Now you're talking my language.
In an age of over-synthesized high tech guitars and effects, by comparison, these two musicians are packing hardly anything. I can't describe how cool that is.
rebecca is an excellent, thorough interviewer and i'm never disappointed or left wanting for gear info after watching videos she hosts. she's a true gearhead. i also appreciate how little she interrupts the artists she's interviewing. really wish there were more like her out there!
i definitely agree with you
Lol great sarcastic post. I almost thought you were sincere for a second there
Yeah man, good call.
I don’t know. She seems just like a regular but cool journalist sent by the producers to carry out the interview.
Victor is such a nice guy, innovative, modest and humble, incredible musician!
I love the contrast in gear. Victor plays all this sleek gear that looks very professional and well kempt, then Regi is over there with scuffed up pedals and headless guitar with this very DIY and well used looking setup. Something about that is just awesome.
Dons Music City, in Greensboro. I knew his cousin Johnny, also a fodera player, and I used to see him play every weekend at the Rib Shack. One day Victor was in the music shop with Johnny when I came by. Johnny introduced me and long story short victor played "you cant hold no groove" on my trashy washburn bass. I swore I could never sound like Vic with that bass, but there I was watching Vic sound like Vic on my trashy bass and I realized/cemented in my head "TONE IS ALL IN YOUR HANDS"..... I am very thankful for that day for many reasons.
The Wooten brothers teach us that you don't need a high end gears and accessories to be a good musicians. Seeing them using Hair Ties as fret wraps makes me adore them.
victors bass is thats 7k 💀
Victor Wooten is a very nice man. Met him after a Béla Fleck show about 20 years ago, and he, Reggie & Béla were all very gracious, took the time to sign autographs, pose for photos, etc.
Victor is not just a bassist, but he is a musician and educator.
Their gear is so accessible! Proof that when you have the skills you can make even cheap gear sound incredible.
Goodness, just to listen to such a master at his craft speaking on what he does to master his craft is unreal.
Great musicians, great people, great friends. The Wooten bros have always shown me how to do it the right way. God Bless.
I love the minimalist approach these guys have. You can buy the best gear and sound like crap. You can be a professional, world-renowned guitarist using a $200 Peavey amp from 1982 and some beat up pedals. Focus on your playing, kids!
All too true. And Peavey equipment is terribly underrated. It used to be Boogies, now everyone has to have Dumbles. Why not learn to play first, people?
Gear is overrated.People always ask,what bass does Victor play?Dude,you can give him a bag of cement,he'll still groove.
Tom T each one of those Foderas is well over 5 grand a piece.
There is an interesting video from Adam Neely (made years after this comment was posted) titled "Does Gear Matter?", where he uses as an example the fact that Victor Wooten uses the most expensive equipment you can get, while Regi uses really cheap equipment. It's an interesting watch. (spoiler alert - they're just using what they're confortable with)
Hahaha! It's funny you should say that, when each of the basses is MINIMUM 5000$ dollars
Love how simple these rigs are.... Just pure talent
8 years later and I’m just discovering that cable
Seriously my jaw dropped
Great person and bass player. He knows what he play, and can explain it well. Wonderful video ;)
Wow, i love the humility these brothers have.
lol @ "It's got technology in there"
The Wootens: some of the Only people that can distract you from attractive women.
😂😂😂 Funny but true.
After I read this I noticed the girl in the video. LOL
Literally had to re watch the video after reading this comment..
She's not attractive
@@tastedawaste1367 Let me fix that for you.. "In my opinion, she's not attractive"
Don't know why I'm so fascinated with the "Premier Guitar" logo on the t-shirt ...
I think most of us are.
It's because of her titties, ya dingus.
it's a very nice logo, indeed...
XDXD hahaha
#MeToo
That's great that Regi has been using the same set up since I knew him about 25 years ago. I used to see him playing that Peavey at all his gigs. I think I remember when he got that Steinberger for demoing Tobias instruments at the NAMM show.Glad to hear he still has that orange Kramer with him. It was crazy what he could do with it. That family is the best, greatest musicians but super down to earth.
you guys are great players and great people i ran into viictor in the airport and he was so cool.ill never forget it and thank you victor
Really well made basses plugged into Hartkes through a Boss effects processor. One boutique multi channel distortion.
Just goes to show if you master your craft it doesnt take elite equipment to make you sound good. Nothing showy just reliable. amazing.
awesome tour! and i loved that snap jack cable!! very awesome idea!
Dude is rockin out with some old Peavey amp and pedals-gear is overrated.People always ask,what bass does Victor play?Dude,i bet if you could give him a bag of cement,he'll still groove with it.
Just learn and master your instrument,that's all.
Peavey is Mississippi Blues made... ;) Though, You have a good Point,,, Vic is Vic... \m/
Most can't hold no groove though
yup, absolutely. You make due with what you have, all they playing comes through your fingers mostly, if you know what you're doing you can make it sound good, at least decent.
ahh, but the tone of a bag of cement _through_ the peavy... 😂
Tom T Best comment.
behind every great bass player is a great brother.. this is what i have learned from the rig rundown video..
Victor and his brothers r a true gems from r great state of Tennessee...🎸🎼🎶😭😭
They're from Sacramento California
Love the scrunchy mute idea. Also love how cute Rebecca is!
Scrunchie on the neck...genius. ive been progressing with the slap technique, but agonize over how to keep those open strings from ringing. Thank you Vic!
I came for the Rebecca comments. Was not disappointed.
FrostByte LMFAO! Me too.
Them tiddies tho! 💖
These seem like genuinely awesome guys. Real down to earth.
Just goes to show you don't need the most up to date flashy rig to sound awesome :-) just some talent in your fingers and your brain ;-)
Love how simple this set up.
She did her homework, well done!
Bring back Rebecca
she's not coming back, blame these perverts making jokes about "seeing her rig"
Boobs
The Wooten brothers are such a class act. I would LOVE to jam with those dudes.
Man, I got to open for SMV at Montreux Jazz Fest in 2009 and backstage Victor asked me about my micropog, said it sounded like i had two basses on stage. I was in the crowd with some beautiful french girl when i heard Vic was backstage, so I ran back and we talked for a few minutes, seriously the happiest moments ive experienced!
could you imagine just work in your shitty job at a drug store and in walks Victor wooten
jake winchester I'd call the cops. Black male acting suspiciously.
My cousin was working at CVS in the early 2000's when the guys from Korn walked in looking for some rolling papers 😉
papa smurf You’ve obviously never left your hometown.
I;m sorry for this comment but Rebecca is adorable, i love her interviews. PS: Man i can´t Regi W. is using a Peavey, man never give a s... for these amps before but it works really well for him. Cheers.
Nice to see Regi is still using older boxes like the SPX-90. I too am pretty keen on those.
Hubert Van Calenbergh Yamaha always made good stuff.
Can we get a rig rundown on Rebecca Dirks?!
I play with a snap jack cable as well and it's
very hard to make them come off if it's looped through your shoulder strap
love them both
Have the same boss gt6b, great made of steel machine :-) almost 12 yo or so and still works like a champ.
great musicians doesn't need huge rigs, he's the proof
Zero worry about keeping up with the Joneses with the brothers! Love that they can do what they do with what some would consider "pedestrian" gear.
ive played guitar for almost 5 years, but vic has got me inspired to switch to bass XP
This is my first time hearing Regi speak. Such a cool dude!
Old school pedal set up regi. Love it
Some super chill dudes, right there.
I'm in a couple of Facebook gear groups that are super snobby, favouring high-end boutique pedals above either multi-effects units OR cheap standard Boss pedals. I love, love, love how these two both just low-key debunk the myth that you need to spend $1,000 on your effects rig to sound good. I feel they could show up for a gig and find out their whole rig is delayed, go to any local music store, spend $50 to rent a couple pedals and amps for the day, and just blow away a live audience of any size based on whatever their local chain music store had in stock.
I run Hartke HA3500 and 4 10s and a 15 .. Love the set up
I love that the Wootens know that less is more. I play the drums among other instruments, but I always try to bring the least amount of gear to every gig, especially when I am playing with talented musicians. I don't need to fill all the spaces with tricks and gadgets.
Every guitar player I play with wants to bring all their shit to every gig, no matter how small the room, or stage. It is my biggest peeve against most musicians. Even Reggie said, I like this guitar because it's easy to travel with. Victor said, I don't need all the extra stuff when I play with my brothers.
This is clean, magic in it's purest form.
I play regularly with a guitarist who will bring everything to acoustic gigs. His rig takes more time and space than just my drums alone. Sometimes I am only playing brushes on a snare and a hat and he gets pissed that I didn't bring the whole kit but we might be in a coffee house where being more than acoustic is just obnoxious. He will bring portable everything, set up a chain of pedals, including a loop that never works when playing live with 4 other musicians but he insists it's perfect for the gigs. Not too mention he starts loud and only gets louder every time we play.
He is your typical Phacking Guitarists.
I need to make him watch this video
Thank you for sharing
Yeah! is very cool!!! Thanks!!
How am I supposed to listen to whatever equipment he uses when the camera is shooting at her rig?
I shot it at her rig
@@Thornspyre81 Nice
Always love gear rundowns that are from the musicians instead of a techie
I dont know how you guys get your audio, but how hard would it be to use a Zoom H4n (or similar) recorder with two inputs so you could use TWO mics? Lapel mic AND the sm58 so we can hear both people talk?
The snap cable was the coolest thing in the whole video.
@hopelesstrail I bought a snapjack cable a couple years ago, it's not clear like that it's just a regular one with a black cord and then the snapjack plugs. My friends have stepped on it, kicked it, walked on it, and last night, spilled chinese food on it which I quickly cleaned off. It's the only cable I own and it has never let me down. It's a 25-footer and it was $40, so if you play in a band or you like to gig solo, I definitely reccomend it above all other options.
where can i get one of those magnetic jack things? or what are they actually called?
Haha, ‘Great’ in this case is actually quite an understatement 👀 He is a living legend, almost a freak of nature 🤷🏻♂️ haha phenomenal 🤙🏼💪🏼
Super nice guy.Down to earth .
she deserves a fan club
Great musician Victor
Regi & Victor seem like really cool guys
8 18 made a chorus from a harmonizer , detuned the guitar , making a chorus effect , i'm assuming with the spx90 , how exactly is this done
Saw them two on their ‘soul circus’ tour. Awesome. He would hand his bass out to the crowd while the band was jammin. And whoever had the balls would throw down on the bass. 👍🏻
those snappy cable things... What about active pickups? do they drain your batteries?
does he use compression sometimes?
All of them brothers wooden are music gods❤️❤️❤️👍🏻💎
Does anyone have a link to the distortion pedal
These guys are down to earth gentleman.
That magnetic cable would really good use for some of the feedback I kept getting whenever I plug in my bass.
You can make your own cable using a Neutrik silent plug on one side.
It contains a Reed circuit to prevent pops and cracks when plugging in.
Thanks for the tip.
Where to get that magnetic cable
i like that "Premier Guitar" logo on her T shirt
what t shirt?
cool words to know
Rebecca Dirks
Seriously though, Rebecca does a great job interviewing: she does her homework, lets people talk, doesn't speak as though she's had a stroke (rare among journalism-types) and, yes, fills out a tight black t-shirt in the most hypnotic way. BTW it seems likely she's not delusional; the "don't hit on me" vibe is meant for all of us. ; )
wow victor wooten is frigging awesomee. :D
She is simply beautiful
The best bass player in the world.
I have a Rodenberg 828 I love it wish i had this one though
Aye they're a nice set..
Always adore her look.....
Those snap jacks look pretty neat, but I'd worry about it coming off if I'd step on a cable, even if I had it looped through a strap.
The SnapJack cables are pretty good. They don't really don't separate unless you want it to.
@@billyrouse4813 me 2
It looks like it might give off a digital sound to it, does it deter the sound in any way?
How cool are the Wooten brothers
is easy to understand the equipment used by each musician if you're a musician, the only way is to know and want to know how to play but for that we must study and learn from audio
6:23 "Hopefully it sounds good" Oh Vic you're a God
Reggie plays through some old school gear
I agree 100% +....I watch these videos just to see her....sorry...what gear??
Loving that Steinberger.
Victor has excellent charisma
true!
Victor is the coolest guy in the world
