Might be a bit late but I just wanted to know; are there any significant negatives to this bass. I've looked at reviews online that said it might be uncomfortable to play especially when sitting down bc of the lack of body bevel. Is this true and does it effect your playing a lot?
This bass is the best one for under 2000 USD , it sounds amazing better than 6000 dollars basses
Hey man, do you still have the DI files for this? The Dropbox link says they’ve been deleted. Cheers!
shredddding it
Great overview! Wondering if you’ve experienced any battery longevity issues with the Fishmans?
@ Rodney I kinda of like the Evil Twin version of this bass 🙂
How do you get that tone? That's what I want to know!
Excellent video! Love the sound and great playing. I think that I might be getting one.
I have got to learn this bass line 🙂
@Rodney McG I really dig your channel 🙂 I have started looking at your other videos, best Metal bass channel I have come across! I would love to see videos on how you come up with your bass lines! I really dig them and would love to learn them! Keep up the good work brother 🙂
I really like the tone of this bass, it the tone right from the bass or are you playing through a pedal? excellent video and playing.
Hey man , i want to thank you for everything you do on your channel , you are a monster player and you seem very passionate about what you do, You deserve a lot more attention , Keep rocking man !???????????????????????? greetings from Québec
Ever since I heard fishman fluence pickups I can’t hear emg pickups the same anymore I’m getting schecter basses with fishman fluence pickups from now on
This is the best bass demo I've ever heard.
Dang you now have made me have to decide if I want the c-5 gt or the similar sls evil twin 5. What I will have to factor is wood and pickups. As always great video.
it sounds like this was recorded underwater.
A bass reviewer who actually plays the bottom strings? And doesn’t slap for the whole video? And who is actually a bassist? Who performed the ancient blood ritual that brought this guy into existence?
Really great review video. Helped me to make up my mind, and ordered the evil twin variant for myself. Thanks a lot!
You just sold me this bass, it is impressive, thanks for the great work.
Do you use three picking fingers?
Damien fine looking bass.
Beautiful bass, great playing and killer tone. what is your signal chain in this video?
Really nice playing going on there. You really show what the bass can do in the hands of a skilled player.
I CAN SEE THAT YOURE A DIR EN GREY FAN FCK YEAH VERY NICHE
Sounds amazing. I wish my Custom 5 sounded like this.
Aaaahahaha, going thru yer videos and found out you previewed this bass. I picked one up without actually playing it first…silly me…just went on whim. So glad I did! Thanks again for bringing Solid content to the bass world
I am totally not into to rock bass, but that was nice to listen to and watch, and see that there is a whole lot more to it than what you think and what gets lost in the mix of the other instruments.
Hey Rodney, always great to watch your stuff you are a freaking monster!; I´ve been a bass player for more than 25 years now, and I play metal for a thrash band named Sadic (Panama), I have quite a few really good basses (2 fender ps, one J, a Lakland Darryl Jones, a Warwick Corvette); but now I´m really into Schecter and all their stuff, and I´m very interested to get one for Christmas, well into my research, I can´t decide between the Hellraiser Extreme, the Apocalypse, or the SLS Elite; I would love to hear which of this is your favorite (considering sound, built up, playability and versatility) and why? They are almost in the same $ range, and I really want a heavy sounding instrument to play metal. Thanks in advance buddy. Cheers and stay healthy.
Amazing bass l have the same bass
Just ordered mine
This one on satin black……. ????
Could you please do a video or share some details on how you set up the action on this bass? I've bought evil twin 5 after your review and it's a beast but really struggle setting the action right.
The audio sounds a little… sped up… might be wrong but I know what it sounds like because I do it in my songs on purpose. The tone might be more accurately represented if that wasn’t the case
Are you tuned to standard, or a whole step down Rodney?
If you covered this I must have missed it. Anyway thanks for another great review.
Killer playing sir!
Wow… That tone is pure death metal like
You’re a great player, but it sounds so metallic that you can’t even make out the notes you’re playing. Just one big mess of notes.
One thing is for sure: these pickups do have a persona of their own.
holy shit. that riff at 1:22 sounds so damn good. gives me Pantera vibes. I really wish that part were longer 😀
anyways, really great playing and killer tone.
Hi Rodney, would you recommend this bass for a beginner? if so, can you recommend an amp as well? Yeah total beginner here, but watching you play makes one pick up a bass in a heartbeat- Awesome playing man!
Hi Rodney, right after listening, watching this bass, I strongly feel I have found my dream bass. Thanks for this!! appreciate it!
Great review! You mention that its light weighted, wondering do you by any chance know approx weight of it?
9 or 18 volt ? Better than the Riot ?
Hallo great Demo! I wonder if this is a real flamed Maple top or a veneer over plain Maple?
I'll trade you a Shecter Stiletto Studio 6! 😀
