    I hope Josh and Spiritbox never let each other go. They're the perfect line-up, especially because Josh and Zev form a beastly rhythm juggernaut.

      I hope they use his vocals on Spiritbox's new material. I realise that Courtney is a huge part of the draw but as you say his vocals are great, would be a shame to not have him sing.

    Very cool that you mentioned the thing about the harmonics! One of the coolest things a bass player can do at these tunings is alternate between the root note on that super low string and then the same note a octave up to change the feel of a part.

  • @tarkenton3895
    @tarkenton3895 Год назад +5

    The thing is with a bass that low, the songwriting and guitar parts alongside will always outline what the note is, so the bass mainly does the work of just putting in that thick low end. Your brain already knows the note that's there from the other instruments which then make the lower note more recognisable.

    I was lucky to find a dingwall pedal and play with it before, first impression was " ok this is a simple pedal" but dude this litle guy is awesome, holds the low end very well and has a great distortion on it, the best part is that does not need too much tweaking! Plays out of the box really well, very great pedal
