@@WhichBass : Alfie great videos and info brother. Back when I was growing up, you had to get Guitar Player or Guitar World, to learn about equipment guys were using. I noticed Rob had his Peavey 2X15 loaded with EV speakers. Most likely EVM 15B’s! Also I know you’ve done a Geezer video but have you’ve done or going to do more vintage rigs like Berry Oakley or Felix Pappalardi? Thanks,brother.
Ohhhh yes I've been waiting for this kind of video since I knew the bassist Robert Trujillo.. Thank you so much for making this video! Keep up the good work! This is truly awesome..
Watch Robert's Bass Rig in Metallica th-cam.com/play/PLw0E3Z43zL4gX6rOVWclZwUT1eCpMT2jJ.html In the meantime, you can read all the details of Robert Trujillo's bass rig in Suicidal Tendencies, Infectious Grooves and Ozzy Osbourne at www.whichbass.co.uk/robertrujillo
Great to have you back, man, Rob is definitely a damn great player and it was super fun to learn about his stuff with Suicidal Tendencies, Infectious Grooves and Ozzy. Would definitely love to see a video for Roger Waters or Paul McCartney sometime in the future
Hey Andrew, good to see you back in the comments! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I think you've asked for Roger and Paul before. Both are on my list! Man that'll keep me busy for sure!
@@WhichBass Yeah, I guess I'm just really excited to see you do a video on them. I'll also toss in Jeff Ament from Pearl Jam and Shavo Odadjian from System Of A Down. Can't wait for Part 2 and keep up the awesome work, man
Damn dude, you put a lot of work and research into these videos. I wonder how many hours it took you to put all of this info together. I admire your patience and dedication to your interest. Keep up the good/hard work, pal. I send my respect from Canada.
Dude this is the first time I seen your videos and I enjoyed it and you deserve to get more views for this no one really covered Rob's rig rundown and I am impressed and enjoyed this .. keep it up 👍🏽
Great vid Alfie. A close friend of mine had a Trace Elliot rig and Im fairly certain that is the loaner rig seen @ 7:35. My friend had the head with the flourescent lighting on the front bottom panel. He passed a few years ago and I don't recall the model #. Thanks for all and keep up the good work.
Thanks Lace, glad you enjoyed the video. I had considered it was a Trace but the grey colours threw me off. I got tunnel vision looking for a green logo!
I absolutely love all these videos and you can really tell how much effort and research goes into them. I don’t know if you really do requests round here at all but my favourite bassist is Steve Priest of Sweet. He’s been a massive inspiration to me and I love him. His bass history is very interesting and I’d love to see a video all about him and his gear and basses! Keep up the amazing work Alfie!
@@WhichBass Thank you so much Alfie I love your channel so much so I really appreciate the response and the awesome content you make! I’d love to see a video on Steve happen so again thank you :)
Nice vid! Really enjoyed it. ST played my hometown of Santa Cruz, Ca in 1991 selling out the SC Civic,wild show.Saw him again with Infectious Grooves when they opened for Ozzy at the Warfield Theater during the Theater of Madness tour,and again with Ozzy this time as a part of his band at the first OzzFest.I saw Robert only once with Metallic when they played here in Costa Rica at Saprissa Stadium. I wish they would come back,we don't get many concerts anymore here in Costa Rica,but it Kirk and Robert want to surf this is the place,pura vida...
GREAT video! I also love EMG pickups, preamps, pots, and especially their solderless wiring (they are the standard wiring used on all of my custom bass and guitar builds), as well as Ampeg amplifiers (until I recently had to sell it, my favorite amp was my Ampeg SVT 4 PRO, run with on board crossover bi-amp low, below about 700 Hz through a Sonic ported cab with 1 x 18" ElectroVoice (it's about 200lbs. but it thumps like a size 18 boot side kick to the chest, absolutely beautiful!!!), and frequencies above were run through a Sonic sealed cab with 4 X 10" Celestion speakers, and a matched piezo horn. This cab has an internal crossover to split the highest frequencies to the horn. BOTH cabs are equipped with circuit breakers to prevent blowing them (VERY important when running an SVT 4 PRO that can be a tsunami of current as high as 1,600 watts!), AND are equipped with internal lights which can be seen through the speaker, just outside the cones, lighting up when driving a signal approaching the limit of the circuit breakers (... yes, I've lit them up). Dean Markley strings are great. Used them since early 90's because the cryogenic Blue Steel were the only E and A strings that could survive my most intense playing. Notes: Wenge, pronounced WEN-gay Budokan, pronounced BOO-do-kahn "Send Me Your Money," and, "I Saw Your Mommy (and Your Mommy is Dead)," are two completely DIFFERENT songs. If it does say that the song was renamed on the website, then that is completely incorrect. Otherwise, a very enjoyable, interesting, and informative video. 🤘🏼😎👍🏽
You do great research & present things well. You should not limit your scope to bass guitars, or even any instrument. Bicycles, motorcycles, concert venues, ... The sky is the limit! ✨
@@WhichBass Very nice indeed! I imagine the amount of research required to fill all gaps between jams and live shows. As a suggestion, would be cool to see a Paul Gray's or Shavo's series!
I've always thought Mr. Trujillo had some kind of low mid punch kind of like Billy Sheehan. Always having a place in the mix rather than piercing through it. Thank you so much Alfie. Great job as always!
Thanks Lif! Glad you enjoyed the video. He definitely had a place in the mix with ST and IG. Not so much with Ozzy and Metallica. If you listen to his bass solos in Metallica it's not particularly "interesting"
If you look for (in TH-cam) Metallica Swanzey New Hampshire you can see me in the front row (Metallica, Suicidal Tendencies & Danzig). I'm being tossed around by the crowd during the opener "Breadfan" w/ jeans on & no shirt. Security pulls me over the barricade & I face the crowd with my first in the air while jumping up and down lol. That was my 21 yr old self. Now I'm 50 :/ This was the show that Jason Newsted passed out at and Metallica played without him for while. Until he was revived & could come out (just to sing) & then eventually play bass again. But I was also in the front row during ST watching Robert in all his glory :-) Great video & awesome choice of shirt as well as the way you are wearing it. Cheers!
I think I must've re-subscribed at least 3 times during this video XD, jokes aside great video and covered as always and I am still waiting for that Jimmy Bain rig history video!
Theres no way this just happened. I decided that id go to your Jason vid to ask when the Rob when was coming out. I clicked on YT and saw this. Nice lol
Another great video, brother! Special request, please do Al Cisneros from Sleep! Signature Rickenbackers, Green Matamps, the sickest envelope filters! You’ll be glad you did, and so will we 😉
Brilliant video as usual looking forward to part two it was punk that got me into bass some of the artists where Norman watt Roy Steve Wilson J j Brunel Bruce foxton Steve severin To name just a few I guess they didn't use a lot of gear so it probably wouldn't be possible to do a video on one artist but how about 70s English punk bassist's stay safe take care
Hey I am new to your channel and really found this informative as I started playing the bass because of Rob, I would like for you to do a video on John Myung from Dream Theater.
Noice, I play bass and I like Robert Trujillo a lot. I like his time as the bassist of Mike Muir’s hardcore punk/crossover thrash metal band known as Suicidal Tendencies🤘🏾🔥. Infection Grooves is awesome and funky. Robert Trujillo is an awesome and amazing bass player, cool songwriter and musician. Metallica’s awesome. Other than that, cool:).
Yooooooo I owned that custom 5 string fretless stingray for a little while around 2016. I never knew it was Trujillos but i bought it from a pawn shop here in the LA valley. I regrettably traded it for a very nice jazz bass but now i wish i kept it. I popped off the neck and it looks like it was a 1980 stingray 4 string that was turned into a 5 string and had an ebony fretboard, small lightweight tuners and looks like it had a veneer on the front of the headstock. It played very well but was super heavy.
Great video but I spent the whole thing waiting for you to mention Rob's signature Zon Sonus 5 string. I say this because I've got one and if you'd like to see/hear it in a couple of vids, come on over.
I’ll tell you what, Forcing yourself to live with the fretless for everything (for as much time as it takes) is actually, IMO the best way to become really intimate and comfortable with playing fretless in general. Oddly enough, Nowadays even though I have everything from 6 string down, A lot of times I naturally grab the fretless! (A 20 year old P bass copy I “jockoed”. I LOVE that bass!!!)
I think it's interesting whether you're a fan or not! Although I would say that 😎. I get information everywhere and any where. Books, interviews, magazines. Absolutely everywhere. I try and submerge my self in the bassists life and learn everything I can ... Sounds stalkerish when you put it that way. Thanks Jan, yikes.
Oh wow!! My guts are still hurting from laughing at your pronunciation of BUDOKAN!!! After years of listening to Cheap Trick Live at BUDOKAN, the Beatles Live at the BUDOKAN and Deep Purple Live at BUDOKAN. It came as a shock to hear the way you pronounce it, BADOECAN. FYI it's Boodoekahn... I'm sorry, I'm really not poking fun just caught off guard...
@@WhichBass It's all good bro, like I said it was just a little jarring hear it pronounced that way. Google has an awesome pronunciation tool by the way... LoL!!!
You're a freaky looking dude but I like the channel. Trujillo plays 8 string but so does Joey Demiayo.....I think I spelled it right. MANOWAR!!!! He's bass's amaze me! 😍 like no bass guitars I've ever seen. Do a video about Joey if you can.
Good Job Alfie!! Roberto & I go waaaay back to our 1st US tour in ‘90..Always a gentleman!!
Thanks Rex! Nice to see you in the comments, I hope you enjoyed it! If you have any stories I wanna hear them!

Great content! Ozzy always had top calibre players. The Budokan lineup of Rob, Zakk and Mike Bordin was always my personal favourite.
That is a killer line up of musicians for sure.
I started playing bass because of Robert back in 2003.
Great video, can't wait for part 2!

Incredible work as always Alfie (I hadn't heard of a Fernandes 8 string). I'd always wondered what the ST "Unicorn Bass" was.

Thanks Mateus, part 2 will be out in a week or so.
He also played in a band called nickel creek . Playing an upright bass . Song title is smoothie song .

Brilliant video as usual looking forward to part two it was punk that got me into bass some of the artists where
Norman watt Roy
Steve Wilson
J j Brunel
Bruce foxton
Steve severin
To name just a few I guess they didn't use a lot of gear so it probably wouldn't be possible to do a video on one artist but how about 70s English punk bassist's stay safe take care
Thanks Richard! I'll get part 2 to you as soon as possible. That's a great list of suggestions, thank you. I'll see what I can do!
Nice vid. For you info, at 7:41, the bass rig is a Trace Elliot
Good call, thanks MA L.
Hello, I am interested in the who's music. Would you mind to also introduce the "OX" john entwistle
Hi Jason, The Ox Is a classic, I hope to get to him eventually.
Hey I was wondering if you ever gotten an ltd bass the b-55fm model and would consider reviewing it?
No Rynnical, I have not. But if you'd like to send me one I'd be happy to review it ;)
The loaner gear for the European gigs with ST was Trace Elliot :-)

Totally agree Douglas! I hope we see that skill in Metallica one day.
love the vid!!!, has anyone ever told you you look like Dave Mustaine?
I wonder if this man talks the same way in person. I feel like everyone on TH-cam has the same format
Yes it is.

Thanks Chris, you'll hear all about Zons in part 2 where he used them in Metallica. Hold tight!

Great suggestion thanks Tomer.
The bass rig that you mentioned was used in Europe looks like a trace Elliot rig to me
Noted thanks!
I wonder how he even got the gigs like how did he find the tryouts to the bands
It was Kirk Hammet's connection, first as beach surfers, then "LA CONECTA"
I think there was a lot more musician cross pollination back in those days. That's my opinion anyway.
I believe he does have an/some ESP Rumble bass(es).
It's an ESP 205, which you'll be seeing more of in part 2 ;)
07:46 is that not a Trace Elliot stack?
Could be!
A suggestion, Jaco Pastorius basses!
A great suggestion thanks Alcatraz!
Would love to see MIKE WATT
Great suggestion, thanks!
I think the European loaner gear was Trace Elliot.
Could be!
you should do john paul jones next!
A classic! Great suggestion Owen, I'll see what I can do.
IMO the best in rock and punk, maybe funk too.
Absolutely!
Oh wow!! My guts are still hurting from laughing at your pronunciation of BUDOKAN!!! After years of listening to Cheap Trick Live at BUDOKAN, the Beatles Live at the BUDOKAN and Deep Purple Live at BUDOKAN. It came as a shock to hear the way you pronounce it, BADOECAN. FYI it's Boodoekahn... I'm sorry, I'm really not poking fun just caught off guard...
Glad I gave you a little giggle Jones! Man, I've only heard of two people live at the Budokan and Ozzy is one of them. It never came up 🤷♂️
@@WhichBass It's all good bro, like I said it was just a little jarring hear it pronounced that way. Google has an awesome pronunciation tool by the way... LoL!!!
Genial !!!!
You're a freaky looking dude but I like the channel. Trujillo plays 8 string but so does Joey Demiayo.....I think I spelled it right. MANOWAR!!!! He's bass's amaze me! 😍 like no bass guitars I've ever seen. Do a video about Joey if you can.
Thanks I guess Al.
