Man you've sold me on one of these! I've been a long time Ibanez 7 and 8 string player but recently picked up a few cheap squires just to have as beater guitars and I was surprised at how much the quality has gone up since I first started out. Played a Bass VI just like yours at a local shop and if they still have it after I get my next paycheck it's mine!
@@DjoshuaCMorris so glad to hear that. I also was shocked at the quality of this instrument and how great it is with very minor tweaks out of the box. I definitely love my 7 and 8 string guitars, but I have barely touched them since owning this instrument

@brunofaustino.guitars it’s kind of its own thing. A baritone is typically 27” and only dropped 5 semitones, where the bass vi is 30” and dropped a whole octave. Some people do put lighter strings on and treat it like a baritone though
@brunofaustino.guitars yup if you go to my channel I have a 2 month review as well as an initial run down of the bass vi illustrating the quirks and things I had to do to get it the most optimal.

@@BrendonKPadjasek its pretty glorious look but has drawbacks, has to be dialed just right, hard to focus, but once you dial it its pretty unique. Its a fun exploration man
wanted more of the double drop g one you did, but this is acceptable LOL. fucking sick Brendon, most people can't write anything intelligible at tunings this low, myself included. almost seems like the solution is to ignore how absurdly low the tuning actually is 70% of the time lol.

I hope not lmao. I was going to call it deathcore but I know at least 8 people in the comments would call me out for not having blast beats or something lol
@@BrendonKPadjasek I think the divider is more about the vocals. you can't really call it metalcore if it's all unclean for example. that's why I call old parkway meathcore.

@@BrendonKPadjasek Exactly, even the luthier when he made me the setup from your video told me that this thickest string would be too thin from this set dedicated to the bass vi and that I should give from the bass, but I tried to play something on it. I was even advised against it. I will change that tuning.
@OskarSylwester yeah it’s unfortunately too low haha. I believe I mentioned it in the comments a few times on that video. Drop A sits really well with this string gauge. Even drop A# would be great but drop A has been glued to this guitar haha
@@BrendonKPadjasek I'll have to check it out, hopefully I can tune it on this setting under drop g, if so I'll twist something at it hopefully I won't fuck it up 🫡
@@BrendonKPadjasek Thank you, Brendon! Appreciate your quick reply. .024 -.100 super 250s is what I got for my next string change/maintenance for this guitar. Stoked it's what you're using to get these tones!
Stoked to hear that! I have this video which goes over what I did to get it set up for Drop A0. I don't go over the intonation but I do cover the bridge stuff I had to do ruclips.net/video/qbqem4FAw8M/видео.htmlsi=8bE8uuPuju-Bmnn5
Hahaha thank you. For the amp tones I’m using the Otto Audio II II II II and for the lead guitars I’m using the same II II II II and a pitch shifter pedal just to get an octave up. Effects are just the normal delay and reverb. The Otto audio II II II II has a 14 day free trial and there’s a discount code in the description of the video
Surprisingly by the end of the song it wasn’t bad. I don’t find the bridge to be bad on these. But I’m also playing to the recorded track so keep that in mind. I can definitely hear it against my performance when but mostly on some of the bends being inconsistent how i bent them
@@BrendonKPadjasekseems like maybe youve sort of adjusted the way you play around the guitar. Maybe you you dont slam the strings as hard in certain places cause you know it will knock it out of tune. The guitarist in my old band used to slam the strings really hard and only certain guitars could handle it. He would absolutly destroy guitars. Also the oil from his hands would eat through the electronics i let him use my guitar for only a couple shows and i had to replace all the electronics on it
@Durkhead hahaha that is intense man. I know a few guys with really sweaty hands that the same thing has happened. I definitely adjust the way I play for each part. Not sure if you can notice but I change the way my picking hand is for just about every part depending on the speed and what kind of riff it is
You're an inspiration man. I have my Bass VI tuned to drop D, are you just using the Fender Bass VI strings for drop A? I don't like spaghetti strings so drop D with 100 gauge is perfect.
Thank you so much! I actually am using the .024-.100 fender set for drop A and I don’t find it too bad. I’m contemplating trying a .110 just for the top string as some of the other strings are actually way too tight haha
@@BrendonKPadjasek I'm using that set too and I just couldn't stand it tuned any lower than C#, I've always liked crazy tension on the strings for some reason and my playing style developed that way. Really tough to play cleanly even with really light picks 😄
Filming and lighting breakdown here:

Yes
@@Durkhead hahah thank you
Double drop A is wild
I’m obsessed with it. Haven’t really tried anything else since
I've got a 10 string stung low to high as ADADADF#ADF#, it's great fun, that and I'm only a couple notes shy of a grand piano 🤣
@RationalGazeUponIrrationalWays haha my small hands would not be able to even fathom playing that thing
Drop A Octave Down is correct. Double Drop A would be AEADGa (both low and high B dropped to A).
@@ParanormalArson I've heard both when referring to this low of a tuning but the original meaning of double drop is definitely what you mentioned here
Honestly blows my mind that the Bass VI hasn't been used like this more now that I hear it. The ultimate heavy instrument was right in front of us the whole time lmao
Absolutely agree. That’s why I keep making songs on this channel with it haha
Check out Admiral Angry! They had 7 string guitars made out of 5 string basses in 2009 tuned to ADADGEE

@@BrendonKPadjasek I'll have to check it out, hopefully I can tune it on this setting under drop g, if so I'll twist something at it hopefully I won't fuck it up 🫡
@OskarSylwester I think you’ll be fine !
Well done, I love your videos on the Bass VI and this instrumental sounds so rad 🤘. What gauge string are you using to get in drop A?
Eh thank you so much! I use the fender brand .024-.100 I think it’s called the 250 set
@@BrendonKPadjasek Thank you, Brendon! Appreciate your quick reply. .024 -.100 super 250s is what I got for my next string change/maintenance for this guitar. Stoked it's what you're using to get these tones!
@johnzemrose7294 oh yeah it’s a great combo on this instrument
That's crazy XD I love it.
What gauge of strings are you using for that tuning?
Eh thanks so much! I’m using the .024-.100
I've got a Squire Bass VI on its way...
Do you have a video or list of absolute "must dos" for setting it up for drop c and other low tunings?
Stoked to hear that! I have this video which goes over what I did to get it set up for Drop A0. I don't go over the intonation but I do cover the bridge stuff I had to do

Brooooo!!! What was the settings that you useeeee!?!? Amp? Effects? This is sooooo crazy!
Hahaha thank you. For the amp tones I’m using the Otto Audio II II II II and for the lead guitars I’m using the same II II II II and a pitch shifter pedal just to get an octave up. Effects are just the normal delay and reverb.
The Otto audio II II II II has a 14 day free trial and there’s a discount code in the description of the video
sic work! By any chance do provide ghost writing services?
I have before! Send me an email.
Can we have this on Spotify please?
Good idea! I might take all my instrumentals from this year and put them on a Spotify/ Apple channel at some point
It's native Drop A or pitch shifted?
Amazing as always!
Thank you so much! And natively! I always tune it down since I can with the bass VI. I don’t love the way pitching down sounds
@@BrendonKPadjasek Holy shit - sounds sick!
@dylvn.klebold thanks my friend!
Heavy as a 🐋
Hahaha thank you my man!
Are you having an alright time with the Bass VI for heavier stuff? Not too much noise with the stock single coils?
Yeah it hasn’t been bad on my end. I do have a humbucker on the way so I’m going to insert that and experiment with that
How many times did it go out of tune during the whammy parts?
Surprisingly by the end of the song it wasn’t bad. I don’t find the bridge to be bad on these. But I’m also playing to the recorded track so keep that in mind. I can definitely hear it against my performance when but mostly on some of the bends being inconsistent how i bent them
@@BrendonKPadjasekseems like maybe youve sort of adjusted the way you play around the guitar. Maybe you you dont slam the strings as hard in certain places cause you know it will knock it out of tune. The guitarist in my old band used to slam the strings really hard and only certain guitars could handle it. He would absolutly destroy guitars. Also the oil from his hands would eat through the electronics i let him use my guitar for only a couple shows and i had to replace all the electronics on it
@Durkhead hahaha that is intense man. I know a few guys with really sweaty hands that the same thing has happened. I definitely adjust the way I play for each part. Not sure if you can notice but I change the way my picking hand is for just about every part depending on the speed and what kind of riff it is
You're an inspiration man. I have my Bass VI tuned to drop D, are you just using the Fender Bass VI strings for drop A? I don't like spaghetti strings so drop D with 100 gauge is perfect.
Thank you so much! I actually am using the .024-.100 fender set for drop A and I don’t find it too bad. I’m contemplating trying a .110 just for the top string as some of the other strings are actually way too tight haha
@@BrendonKPadjasek I'm using that set too and I just couldn't stand it tuned any lower than C#, I've always liked crazy tension on the strings for some reason and my playing style developed that way. Really tough to play cleanly even with really light picks 😄
@sahamal_savu it’s definitely better for note sustain to go tighter so if you can handle the tension good on ya haha
nice. what kind of strings did you used to tune that low?
I did tune it that low and I use the .024-.100 for drop A and drop .024-.084
