    Thank you for watching this video! It was a lot of fun to make! Please hit that LIKE and SUBSCRIBE if you are not already! Should I make more "review" videos? Lol! Also, let me know if you want me to turn my BASS REVIEW SONG into a full-blown track!

      I had a listen to their new song, pretty good, if not a little short for Metallica! 🤘🏻😉

    Fret buzz (and tight tuning) would have me checking the neck relief. Stretching the strings while doing initial tuning might also help. It's usually the D and G (stock) strings that worry me.

    • @JTStudios

      Great suggestion! I didn’t even think to check the neck relief. Thankfully, the D and G stock strings seemed to be okay and it was only the low E that I had issues with. Thank you for your comment and input. 🤘🏻🙂

    Ordered this bass last week. It's still in transit. Even with exchange and shipping to Canada, it's a great deal.
    Also you need to make that a full song!!;

      So far, I’ve been pretty impressed with the guitar since I got it and for the price, you can’t go wrong! I hope you enjoy your new bass when it arrives! Thanks for your comment and support. 🤘🏻

    First of all the bass looks sweet! I love the matt black finish although I'm not convinced about the middle bit (have no idea what the name of it is 🤣)
    Brill video and deffo think the bass is worth the pennies, can't wait to hear what it can do with decent strings.
    Also I vote yes for new song with that groove, been a while since we have had a JT original to pleasure our ears 😉

    • @JTStudios
      @JTStudios  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you!! Yes, it sure is pretty! Ah, you must mean the pick guard! I think I know what you mean. I'm typically not a fan of pick guards, myself.
      I'm certainly thinking I will turn that riff into some 8 and a half minute homage to Metallica. LOL!
      Jay Castle said in an earlier comment that the bass in the mix was a little tinny, and I hear it now, so I'll be sure to make it meatier for the final track!

    nice review. If you write and record a full song I'll happily play it on Moshville Radio

      Hey Leon! Thank you. It was a bit… random, but I had fun with it. 😂
      Absolutely, that would be awesome! If I’m gonna do it “Metallica style”, it’ll be like… 8 and a half minutes long! 😂
      Thanks again for your support, Leon, and for watching this video! 🤘🏻

    Doggo was jealous, he noticed how you complemented your new black girl on her looks. That first song you played is from Dark Sun - Arena OST, right? P.S. I just ordered this exact guitar, no lie.

    i bought it but it didn't arrived yet, can i tune it to E standard? Because you said that the tuning it's tight but i see other videos when they bring it outta the box and tune it to E without problems. I don't understand😟

    • @JTStudios
      @JTStudios  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Forza! The guitar you have ordered should be fine, I would hope. This one I had in the video arrived with some defects, and the reason the Low E string would not tune correctly was due to the gear at the back being broken. I have since had this guitar replaced by Thomann and Harley Benton and it works just fine now.
      I hope you enjoy your new guitar when it arrives! Thanks for your comment! 🤘🏻

    what a great looking bass, also loved this video style mate great stuff.
    The bass sounded a bit tiny.. tinie tin-e.... how the fuck do you spell that haha any way I like a bit of deeper sound personally, although like you said with the tension etc it might be the strings 🤔
    the tune you made was awesome as well mate can definitely see you making an absalute banger out of that 🤘

    • @JTStudios
      @JTStudios  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Haha! 😂 Yeah, I get you! The strings are definitely needing to be changed. I honestly couldn’t get the stock strings into standard tuning. Well, the low E, anyway.
      When you say it sounded tinny, do you mean in the unmixed play or in the final full mix? I completely changed the tone of the bass in the final mix to try to be closer to an early Metallica-like sound as the song took that shape. I’m definitely thinking I’m gonna turn that into something for fun and I’ll make sure that bass is nice and deep and pretty and stuffs. 😆
      Thanks for watching this though, dude. And I appreciate that feedback!! 🤘🏻

      I’m gonna make that bass meaty, just for you, in the final track when it’s done. Haha. I’ve just listened back to it and I’m totally hearing what you pointed out. Too much in the mids! Maybe a bit too much “clang” too. Oops! It’s okay - it was a test that I mixed in like, 20 minutes. I normally spend hours on mixes so… 😂😂
      Yes - get yourself back wielding that bass! Then we can have a jam together and collab on something!!

    Mine looks great, feels great, sounds horrible! Unplayable. Still has the tag hanging from one of the tuners. I can't bring myself to plug it in again. I don't know what to do with it.

    • @JTStudios
      @JTStudios  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Oh… that’s not good then. Could you modify it? Try to make it better, or is it not worth the effort?

    • @JAYZIGGY5
      @JAYZIGGY5 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @JTStudios It's not worth the effort. I have a massive collection of ridiculously priced basses. I just wanted to see how this thing played. I got the active HH version too. That one had sharp fret edges and a very uncomfortable neck but it sounds decent unless I use the selector to split any of the pickups. Very loud buzzing.
