Hey! Thanks for that info! That's impressive. I can't find any information about the diameter of the resulting flower. Do you know? I checked it out on RUclips. It looked half explosion, half firework.

@brentinjapan no idea on the size of the flower. But keep in mind the videos you see of it are filmed from 2-3 km away. It was gigantic.

@@martrg1 By the looks of the mountain, yeah - looks huge!

@@brentinjapan look up Howelson Hill in Steamboat Springs, CO, USA. It was shot from the back side of that.

@@martrg1 I've amended the title and description of this video! Thank you!

Thanks James! Wish I could have taken another take or two on the pitchy parts, but the beauty of limiting it to one day was a great exercise AND it captured how my rock voice was at that time. I later joined a rock band and gained more control back in my loud voice.

@@brentinjapanwhatever you’re doing, it’s working.

Thanks for watching! I know what you mean! The LaBellas are SO good!! Like I said in the video, I chose D’Addario for THAT bass, but even the LaBella sounded great to me.

Thank you!! I love when people share my stuff. That’s why I make it!

Haha!

Love you!!!

Thank you!!

I’m glad you dig it!

They do? That’s funny!! I’ve been there but didn’t notice it. I think I was focused on Awaji burgers!!

And that's exactly the way to justify buying it! It's going to pay for itself! LOL Feel no fret at Christmas!

Yeah! This is a great tip everyone. Thanks for sharing!

It’s really amazing. If you like Ibanez necks like I do because they’re thin and smooth then it’s a no brainer. And remember, the sound samples in this video were done with zero effects!

@@brentinjapan Keeping you posted. Just got it. I'm amazed. Best acquisition ever.

​@@sonidoremasteggyzado9044 Awesome!! Thanks so much for checking in! What's the first thing you played on it?

@ king crimson’s one time! It’s such a smooth line by tony levin!

@@sonidoremasteggyzado9044 Jeezum Crow!! Cool AF deep cut!! I just played some walking bass lines. You rock, man!

Yeah, I had to get Deepu on the podcast!

So glad you liked it!!

Haha!! Guilty as charged! Glad you got something out of it!

Actually I wanted to overdub that with “like and subscribe” because it would be funny!

Ha! Yeah, you and me both!

Haha!

🤣

It is!! Have you been?

Cool! You think Steve Harris played better than me? 😝 Great concert, right!?

Good info!

Right!!? Crazy expensive for a part of the animal they’d normally throw away. Part of the crooked food industry.

In Japanese it’s gyūshi in case you have to ask.

Thanks! I've been enjoying your posts, too!

Wow! This is hands down the best feedback I've gotten!! Thanks so much! Yeah, they definitely cut through a guitar better. Glad I could help you make a choice. Do keep me posted. I'm hoping for a bit of a community feeling here.

Will do, Brent. Question re string tension. I read where some players have restrung an acoustic and eventually run into a bridge lift issue. My bass shipped with 45-100 bronze roundwounds. The tension on the XLs, 50-105, seems slight, but is that enough of an increase for concern?

@@virwill I never knew about hat bridge problem so I looked it up. It seems like it happens with basses that are not built well enough to withstand the immense pressure of steel strings, or that have a poor bridge and saddle design that pulls up on the bridge. With a Fender or other reputable maker, you won’t have this problem. Plus, the tension of tape wound strings is MUCH less than that of steel strings. A steel 40-100 set will have much more tension than a nylon 50-105 set. This actually causes a different concern. The lack of tension means that nothing is pulling back on the neck, so the truss rod might have to be loosened. Over the years this may result in the truss rod being completely loosened and if it needs further adjustment the neck will have to be reset. I had a Washburn AB20 (review here: ruclips.net/video/9RRgTfCsXaY/видео.htmlsi=g8ySIXTaml7eGBsm) and a similar thing happened: the truss rod was completely loose, but the neck settled there and never needed more adjustment. However, the loose truss rod rattled inside the neck. You can hear it in this recording I did: ruclips.net/video/CrHslUGFcMk/видео.htmlsi=_AAdQd8c1WPMFWyl

Thank you!!

Kobe, home of Kobe beef!

OK, so this comment is the BEST one I've ever gotten!!! Thanks so much!! There is actually one more harmony that goes with that, as arranged by Liza Martinelli, a Canadian jazzer. Imagine if I did 3 basses? LOL

that's so cool.

still freakin awsome!

Great info! I had no idea. Useful to someone so thanks for posting!

Hey! Thanks for watching! I agree that the LB's are boomy on the lower strings as you go up the neck. I don't find them floppy, but I've been playing them forever so maybe my playing has adjusted? Or maybe my action is higher? I love the tension on the XL's and I did prefer them for this bass in the video so maybe give them a try. I've also seen many Rotosound and DR recommendations. If someone gave me a free set I'd try them but from what I've heard on RUclips, these two strings sound better - to me. Good luck! Let me know how it goes!

@@brentinjapan Good morning (at least here in Scandinavia-Sweden) I ordered the XL's + EKO ABB4096M for the acoustic and to compare + some other D'addarios for my Aria Pro II electric bass, will get back with a comment on how it works thanks 🙂

@@MrArtrock Do keep in touch. I always hope for these videos to be the start of interaction with people everywhere.
