Thanks for sharing this. I have been s dry tone only played for years, and now am wanting to add some textures. So this was a great intro to pedals tutorial for me.
Why switch?
Well this was fun
Absolutely awesome, thank you
Dude, VERY cool! Also, killer bass and playing.
Hi Johnathon
I couldn’t ascertain is the bass active ? do you use any buffer pedals to maintain your ( fantastic ) tone ?
Thankyou for the great video and music !
Like a modern day Doug Wimbish. What strings you rockin on the Serek?
Wow, where has this channel been all my life!?! Bro, best gear rundown ever! Being a bass player, this was a treat! I’m happy to see another bass player use two amps like me. ????
rad!! is the C4 patch at 14:20 available online?
Do you use any fancy switchers to get pedals out of the chain? Does your clean sound lose anything? The serek is active?
Yeah man!!! Inspiring bass players everywhere
This was such a pleasure to watch. Thank you! I learned a lot, and I had fun along the way. I especially enjoyed the whole tone sequence @16:09
COLMAN RULES
you posting any of those C4 presets to Neuro?
I just got recommended this! Cya today mr Coleman!
SO well done!! Love the tonezzzz
Nice floating thumb technique. Very sophisticated
Awesome run down! Thanks for sharing your palette of sonic wizardry!

You're having way too much fun for a bass player lol! Very cool stuff! Great video too. Earned a sub with this one dude. Cheers!
Just discovered this channel.
Really enjoyed this video: the playing and the charismatic, light-hearted discussion of your rig…
Subscribed! Gonna check out the band's music,too. Wishing all of you inspiration and great gigs!????
Jonathan great rundown. How do you like playing a 30.5” vs 34” bass?
Hey brotha how are ya?! Hope everything’s good! Ya know that fuzz sounds gorgeous so Ive been tryin to look around after you mentioned it’s from an Ampeg 360? I apologize for my ignorance in advance but if you or someone could please help explain what that is or why I can’t find anything about it that would be MUCH appreciated lol I checked Mesh Audio as well and I’m officially lost. Thank youuuuu
