What about some uke strings on a trombone?
Maybe violin strings on a helicopter
Bassoon reed on a snare drum
no balls
Trumpet mouthpiece on a Rhinoceros
Kick pedal on an asteroid
@@emiliomontesdeocagonzalez681 that would be astronomical
I think the unfamiliarity of playing on the bass prompted both of you to play more from the ear which resulted in some really good music, great video guys!
I love how it brought Rob back to the "roots" of jam music, so to speak. I've never seen him sound so loose. Pretty great what Lee came up with, too, when sort of forced out of his "normal" playing boxes (even though he sees the same lower-four strings on any electric, removing two of them forces you to compromise). Really cool video.
I think you are both straight on!. It's like the extra amount of thinking that goes into their playing "forces" them to do new things because it breaks their old habits. Especially Chappers "notes pr. minutes" goes way down, but the notes that he ends up playing are all the right ones!. The captain was just great! Perhaps even better than when on a regular guitar?!
WOW, that actually sounded amazing.
I think it's a great idea for recording leads. I would be interested in hearing a dirty lead recorded with the mid at 6 and treble turned all the way up and then double track it clean with the bass turned up and mid and treble level using the bass with guitar strings
i love the idea of the wider string spacing too, i have huge hands and can find basic chords tricky at times.
@@Mulgy Could look into buying baritone guitars. They have an extended scale length, which would give your hands a bit more space. You don't have to use them to downtune, you can use them in E standard just the same, although the strings will be quite a bit tighter than normal.
But, what you really need is just more muscle memory practice. BB king wasn't the slimmest of men, and he managed just fine. Zakk Wylde is built like a mountain, even uses shorter scale length guitars, and he has virtually liquid fingers.
Oh yeah your totally right, many amazing guitarists have huge hands and i am sure that even more practice would help a lot. If i come to buy a new guitar i might look at a baritone, down tuning would be ok though, i use 11s on my Les Paul and down tune to D anyway :)
@@royalcat10 and Davie504, guy is a tower and he's got gigantic hands for a bass player
I think it'd be cool if Rob and Lee both did a challenge where they had to get a bass rig each. A bass guitar and a bass amp each, and maybe a bass pedal or two.
yes.
Yes
Yes
Yes
I didn't actually think this comment would get many responses... Guess I was wrong 😂😂
Holy crap I think Lee should play a bass with guitar string more often.. I really liked the tone he got at around 5:08 !!
Who knew the p-bass pickup was a great guitar pick-up!?! ;)
I thought the same thing! I always like Lee's playing anyway but with this setup there was something different in his style and overall playing that was great!
Yeah, that tone was god damn filthy.
Best jam I've seen of you two in a while, the sound really pushed you guys together, bet we'll see a band in the future with this band configuration! :D
Royal Blood :D
royal blood
They instinctively went higher up the fretboard right from the start, like typical guitarists do when trying out bass. But what came out of it, is magnificent.
I never knew I needed this in my life until now
Very impressive, but can you- wait. This is not that channel
Lyanna Sōryū hilarious. Suprised more people don't get this. Davie is great.
@@tigmil8116 I'm really surprised nobody else made a comment like this :|
Is this about one with hot wife right?
Davie is the best
Mike Kerr (royal blood) uses guitar strings on a bass on the song Hook Line and Sinker
This was my first thought!
2 bass strings and 2 guitar strings
@@gh_pics Which is a great idea because the top two strings on a bass sound pretty much like garbage normally.
They did a Sound Like video on Royal Blood. It made me appreciate Royal Blood much more. So much effort goes into that sound.
@@JohnKelly2 The first sounds like is way better the second doesn't sound like them at all
Damn, I've been GASsing over one of those Mustang basses all year long but now I want one just to put guitar strings on it.
That sounds crazy good. It got the Cliff Burton Wah effect but through guitar strings. Super cool challenge!
If you scan the QR code on the SG, you get a bonus vid of Chappers playing it through the Korg Miku.
:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
From the title I wasn't sure if this was video worth watching but it actually sounds really nice, particularly at 4:43 and 7:15
Royal blood look different 😂
Damn you, this is exactly what I was going to say haha! Well played sir.
I can't hear the similarity
@betty-697 Jeez, you must be fun at parties
@betty-697 Sorry, I don't try to be original when I reply to angry people.
So much bitterness is never good bro, you should chill sometimes.
Try to smile today, then come back
@betty-697 Hahahha, you know buddy, being arrogant and bitter doesn't make you original nor creative, it just makes you a cliché among the population of artists and "creatives" (hahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahah)
Have a nice day cliché, I hope you'll deal with your daddy issues one day
This was utterly amazing. The music you just created on a whim with inspiration of basses strung with guitar strings is great. I always look for creative outlets and you have shown me another. Great content right here my friends.
I watched your material sine it started coming out and there's been a lot of gold, but this, this does put a smile on my face. I was having fun over how much fun you guys are having. Gold.
Just thing I was thinking about! Thanks for the preview. I will add this to my arsenal when playing bass. Great work.
Sounded like Tool in that last jam. Now there's a compliment :)
No. It really isn't.
That last jam was well cool! It is so interesting, that the difference in the instruments makes for a different style and feel in your playing.
what's remarkable about it is how the essential character of the 'gibson' (epiphone) & the fender are preserved. I have a fender VI (90s japanese reissue) & I put the recommended (i.e. quite light) set on it & tuned it down to C-C. it turned out to be a lot of fun like that.
This video fully and perfectly encompasses why I love these guys
Sounds like something you would here Pink Floyd do. I've got to get home and try this on my little Squire. I've ran a Bass through a flanger and a big muff and enjoyed that.
That was a thing of beauty. Great jamming boys. Unique tones and clever riffage.
Been watching for years. Make and play my own basses. What amazing sounds. I would actually Spotify those sounds on high rotation. Great playing. Wow.
Lee accidentally played One of these days by Pink Floyd 7:08
I came here to post "Congrats, you've discovered Pink Floyd!"
That's what I thought.
Beat me to it
Floyd with a little bit of Sabbath
Great song
The day Claptain Lee Anderton became Geddy Lee Anderton?
WOW ...... is sound so unique ....... mind blowing thank you so much
Great IDEA guys!!! Andertons never ceases to amaze us with cool videos, & ideas.
Reminded me of Tool. Nice
Yeah it sounded a little like Sober at 2:36
I was waiting for the crunch to drop any second, like... "Do it! Just do it already. Hit the damn distortion."
Especially around 7:40
Twizz exactly the moment. Very cool. Listening to Lateralus today. Still incredible
betty-697 over-rated? Seriously? I've no problem with people not quite liking them but they are hugely talented and influential, surely?
These things sound amazing. Rob should do a special guitar line with these setups.
THAT WAS THE BEST JAM IVE SEEN YOU GUYS DO IN A WHILE. Love the pink floyd esque riff!!!
Lee!!! I'm led to believe that is some of the nicest phrasing that I"ve heard you play.. Along with the one video Rob even goes out of his way to comment he thought that you had just done some of your nicest playing ever in a video.... does anyone know which video that was ? I'd like to see it again.
The Marshall Astoria amplifier video.
I’ve thought about putting a different bridge and nut on a short scale bass for a couple decades. Pickup pole spacing has prevented me from doing it, but I’m inspired to work around that now.
Lee smoked Rob on this one!
I actually did something similar a while back and took a schecter ultra vi and put 11s on it and brought it up to E standard. The results were rich tones with lots of ambience but chords were tough to play with the wide fret spacing. I love it though.
that was probably my favorite jam I've heard them play, the fender sounded amazing
still waiting on the captain meets clapton
Sufyan Ghani So’s the Captain
@@P_Beard_5961 I think you mean so's Clapton
Sufyan Ghani captain gets the clap
claptain
That'd be so damn epic
As a purveyor of videos on subjects I know nothing about, I've allways enjoyed your videos. But this is the first time you were playing something I'd actually listen to on it's own :D
I didn’t want a base yesterday. But today it became a different story! Great vid guys.
One of my favourite video your gents have done! Amazing sounds lol
The band Lightning Bolt has been doing something like this for years. It's really fun!
I almost never comment on your videos, usually just watch, but that was freaking awesome. Loved it.
I literally do this. All my guitars are between 28"-30" baritones and I string them with 10s in standard. I find the extra scale length fits my hands better and the stretches aren't that much worse.
Love your epic sound Lee. More experimental video guys... this was great.
This is one of my favorite Andertons videos.
I’ve heard this sound on records. Animals by Pink Floyd and some Tool records? Looking into it Pink Floyd used a bass VI which is basically this idea with 6 strings. Such a great idea. Miss you at Andertons Chappers!
Very good you need more vids like this I miss you guys just messing around I know it's hard since you guys have done almost all the vids I can think of
The jam from 7:14 was one of my favorite Andertons moments from both Chappers and Captain. Sounded amazing and I could listen to this all day.
I never thought someday i hear some proper stoner doom here at Andertons! That tone....
In my first band in Jr High, no one had a bass so we strung my Sears Silvertone with the g string from a bass set and then the rest with a standard next three guitar strings. Got the low end we needed. I played 2 years as this being our bass. Crazy things can be done. I enjoyed this quite a lot.
This was awesome. Best episode. Stoner rock Tool-ish jam
The wah on Rob's guitar sounds awesome. Both sound great. Such unique tones.
Literally the coolest sounding bass I’ve ever heard! Such a great video!!
I've often wondered what it would be like to use a Bass VI as a baritone guitar... Would probably be nice for drop C... A tenor guitar tuned in E standard (like a piccolo bass) could also be interesting when 6 strings seems like overkill
Someone in Germany has you covered:
www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_guitarbass_vs_vintage_series.htm
@@Gazaam81 I've seen that one before 😊 much cheaper than the Squier and the tune-o-matic bridge also seems like the smarter option over that weird tremolo bridge
I've done it and it's awesome.
A Bass VI basically IS a baritone guitar. The only difference between a normal guitar and a Baritone is the extended scale length. A Bass VI checks that mark.
What differentiates a Bass VI and a Baritone is typically that Bass VI's may come with more bass designed pickups, (But not always) and will have a bridge that will fit bass strings, with their enlarged ball end.
There are almost no differences between a Bass VI and a Baritone as to how it would play and sound. (Assuming you're using the same pickups.
But, obviously, using a 30" scale length for anything above like A standard is just way overkill. It's just entirely unnecessary. I like my strings pretty tight too, (I aim for about 20 lbs of tension on each string, I use 11s on a 26.5 inch scale length guitar in standard.) but using a 30 inch guitar for Drop C, you'd be better off just using like 13's on a normal scale length guitar. No intonation issues, keep that tight feel and beefier sound, and don't have to worry about that massive stretch you'd get on the lower frets from such a large scale length.
royalcat10 holy fuck, 11’s on a 26.5 for standard? Did you mean 25.5?
Great Sound! And epic wah-wah around 9min. Enjoyed it a lot to listen to it! Greetings from Germany!
That noodling around 7:40 on is pretty cool... Love that tone... Great idea...
After 7:14 I was expecting a Doctor Who theme
That last jam was just, mmmhhh, so good. I think I listened to that part at least 4 times.
That was absolutely flippin AMAZING!!!
The bass strings I use are 80-80-40-40 so they're close enough to guitar strings haha. Les Claypool has/had this string set so I decided to try them, and I really like them for slap/pop/double stops.
Captain Lee for the win! That was great mate!
Best Capt Lee lead playing I've heard.
that jam at the end was probably the coolest thing i’ve seen on this channel
I built a 30" scale (short scale bass) guitar and fitted it with 14-72's. Holds octave down tuning perfectly!
Correction. I built 2 because the first was so fun to play. Lol
Bloody excellent! Got to get me a bass and some geetar strings and try this out.
Wonder what Bea would have done with this idea...?
That jam @7:15 was beyond awesome. Lee has developed into a really good musician and the jam with Rob was just cool as all S!
Sounds fantastic. Up there with some of my favourite jams you two have done.
I think you both sound better when you're in unfamiliar territory.
Sounded really cool and Lee was coming up with some great riffs.
That last jam was stunning!
I play a Chapman Stick (no relation), the higher strings are similar gauge over 36", piccolo bass sets are the cheapest and quickest option if you don't want to order from Stick Enterprises.
Nice to find someone that plays it, always loved the sound of that instrument.
Loved the last jam, sounded fantastic.
Actually, somebody jave already done this... a small spanish channel did this with bass stings in guitars, guitar strings in bass, acoustic with electric... and all kinds of combinatios. Great video by the way!
You guys should do a video with the Ibanez SRC6!!
Best jam yet! Sounded greats guys.
How cool of an idea was that, holy mackrel!! I love you guys at Andertons
Anyone else note how much Lee's playing has improved?
Did Justin bust his rut? 😅
You made a tenor baritone guitar. You can buy them on Eastwood Guitars website. Sounds cool with the bass pickups though. I might seriously get one of the Fender Mustang basses just to do this.
The jam at the end, you MUST record that and release the song. Have Rob or whoever sing something about traveling through cosmos. Awesome space western stoner rock right there! Love it.
Well, that was totally worth 11 minutes of my life! Why did you stop!
I strung up a few CigarBox Guitars that way (at the bridge) when you have to make creative solutions. The strings are pretty durable.
Hands down my favourite jam from Chappers and the Captain, this does include the snow falcon jam too
lol just messing with you guys you guys are one of my favorite RUclips channels keep on rocking
That was awesome! I watched it twice just for the groovy tunes.
Bea, time for you to do your thing! This is right up your alley!
Well, that was just an awesome spur of the moment jam. Well done.
You can really tell that lees lessons with justin are paying off! lees playing has advanced quite a fair bit in just a few weeks thank you captain lee for the inspiration to play and get better!
Woww ! This sound is nice ... please make some more song , I love it
That was a killer jam!!! Totally unexpected!!! Loved it!
That makes for some great stoner rock.
Very interesting guys and y'all sounded good with ur long scale electric ukuleles. 🗿🤣
When Lee turned that reverb up I got this crazy grin that I cannot shake... I have to try this sound
Great job. I don't know if it is a thing, but it sounded great
Wow that sounded really good!!! Love your playing, totally different from the style you normally play. Good writing tunes on maybe!
I would pay good dosh for an album of what you two were on to in the second half of the video. A bit of Sid Barrett era Pink Floyd, a bit of Clapton, and even a touch of Ry Cooder sneaking in. Well done.
this is amazing guys!! feeling tempted to string my bass with these :D
One of your best jam!!
Damn, that was good! The jam was heaven-Lee to hear!
Wow. Actually have me chills
Best jam in the channel, really like it.
11 minutes 22 seconds of my life I’ll never see again. Top work fellas! 😂
