    Charger is a great band. It’s great showcasing your metal side.

    It's great getting a peak into your world and how you approach gear and playing live. I judge all basses I play by how well they sound playing I Am Forever.

    Thanks Matt, these videos are so cool.
    Imagine John Entwistle had these videos when you were learning.

    It’s really fun to get to know you through your channel. I spent so much of my teenage years trying to transcribe your bass lines onto blank tablature sheets with a pencil. It’s really cool to see that you’re still at it.

    Love it. Been listening since 92. Heard rancid 1st doubled back to op Ivy by 93 off a recorded cassette tape. Never looked back. Always happy with your projects. Such a wide range in style . Absolutely one of the greatest on 4 strings. Would love to hear more vocals. Thanks for all the music, memories , good times. See ya in the pit!!!

    You are a legend Matt you are one of many that inspired me to play bass 21 years ago. Love every second of your playing

    I run an ampeg 1540he, which is a 4x10 in the top and 1x15 in the bottom but it looks like the 8x10 ampeg fridge cabinet. But I love having the 15 in combo with the 4x10. When we play small shows I have a two cab option as well I have a 4x10 and separate 1x15 for the cramped quarters.

    @tonyp1313 5 месяцев назад

    Great video Matt! I tried a Bassman 800 briefly once when I strayed from Ampeg...not for me but only 17 lbs! It looks like it weighs a ton but it's light as a feather compared to the big iron.

    Very cool! I remember watching a video from a few years back of you playing the Super Bassman and drooling over the tones. Nice to see (and hear) you using the 800 these days though since that’s the head I ended up getting!

    New to bass playing, maybe about 6 months. Learning scales and how to use all my fingers vs. one or two. I want to build up speed and bass line walks but struggle. Any tips would be appreciated sir.

  • @pb5531
    @pb5531 5 месяцев назад

    Can’t lie, it’s a like a teaser to seeing the Rancid rig even though they’ll likely be no pedals. My teen self from the mid 90s cannot wait

    @jessejorgensen3931 5 месяцев назад

    Tube in the pre is much more important than the power in my opinion. Learned that with home audio. Guess it could be different with instruments but I doubt it. Cool video.

  • @wesmitchem825
    @wesmitchem825 5 месяцев назад

    Awesome I use a way huge swollen pickle and want to get a pork loin for less dirty sounds I haven't found a compressor I like and the wah I like is super expensive the old Morley power fuzz wah cliff Burtons used I had one but it took a crap and I can't get it to work right anymore and a cheap music lady chorus rounds out my bass effects it's the only one I can find that goes as deep as the built in chorus from my peavey Mark 8 head and I've tried a bunch of different kinds.theres an octave effect on one of my heads but I never use it.i got a ton of pedals I could be using but haven't found a place for anything but what I already use but could definitely add a pork loin lol thanks for being the biggest inspiration to my bass playing from day one

      @MattFreemansBassBunker  5 месяцев назад +1

      I still have a couple. I toured with them when it came out. It’s a great head but when the new 800 came out I started using those. They are lighter and less tubes means not as much can wrong. Although I never have had a problem with them. Thanks for asking
