I wouldve scrapped the eq on the bass and instead add La Bella Beatle bass flatwounds (i have on my epi viola). For guitar pedals you could use a compressor and a tubescreamer-esque pedal to get some of the 1964-1966 recorded tones.
I've been waiting for this one for so long, The Beatles are undeniably one of the greatest rock bands of all time. I'd still like to see a Sound Like Megadeth or Van Halen Without Busting the Bank at some point
1. The guitar he saw “George play in a photo” is the Gretsch Chet Atkins Country Gentleman. Looks spot on, minus minor details. John, George, and Paul all played Casinos so that would have been a safer bet. 2. For basses you could have also went for a Squire VI, which George and John used on later tracks. 3. In Taxman Paul actually played lead guitar on his Casino. Bass was played on a Fender VI if I remember correctly. 4. Going the Gretsch/Hofner style route I was hoping you played more early beatles and clean tones. With the songs you picked to play, a Casino or any guitar with p90s would have been more spot on. Sounds like for The Beatles is so easy yet so difficult at the same time, because almost every instrument they ever played was so documented. That being said, on a budget, I believe you guys did a very good job!
I'm pretty sure that Paul played just the solo on Taxman, not lead guitar, but I know for a fact he did play his Rickenbacker bass on taxman as whenever they used the Fender VI they had it very quiet in the mix plus it sounds like his ricky
George used his Gretsch Chet Atkin Country Gentleman a lot! I'm suprised he saw it in just a photo, because it's used all the time from like 1963-1965.
FWIW: for me, the shopping is the best part. Even if you know what you want, please shop more for my benefit. Hearing you show and talk about choices is far better than talk alone. Cheers.
Considering how tough it is to replicate their sounds from so many eras I think that a Gretsch and a Vox were your best choices and you guys really did a nice job
Songam 1 know what they should do is get a Yamaha Pacifica and do Phil X from Bon Jovi I think it would be pretty cool for Rabea and Matt took try to do Richie and fill like they did with George and John today
Hellish Citizen777 They haven't done a Cream episode. All the Clapton ones they did are focused on his solo era tones. That works for Dominoes and Journeyman etc, but it's not the Cream sound.
Sorry to be a backseat driver, but, you need flatwound strings on the bass! And, you need to slide into the second note (A) on the Come Together bass line, too staccato...
“some” ideas: Van Halen Steve Vai Mötley Crüe (by busting) Steel Panther Pearl Jam (by busting) Slipknot (by busting) Queen (by busting) Metallica (by busting) Anthrax Slayer Tom Morello (by busting) Motörhead Alice In Chains (by busting) Mick Ronson (David Bowie) Jimmy Page (under £500) Megadeth (Marty Friedman era) Dimebag Darrell (under £500. i know you can do it) Poison Bon Jovi Iron Maiden (under £500) Stevie Ray Vaughan (by busting) Ghost John 5 Black Sabbath (by busting) Def Leppard Carlos Santana (by busting) Deep Purple Judas Priest Scorpions Ratt Randy Rhoads (by busting) Zakk Wylde (by busting) Soundgarden (by busting) Jake E Lee Depeche Mode Guns N Roses (Chinese Democracy) Buckethead Yngwie Malmsteen Prince Warrant The Eagles The Rolling Stones (by busting) Fleetwood Mac Tom Petty Nirvana (by busting) Skid Row Green Day (by busting) Cheap Trick The Cult
Bea: ...double-team Matt: *becomes the most red thing in observable universe* on the other note, great as always! You might have just convinced me to buy that Rumble amp, brilliant! as for suggestions, maybe to stick with The Beatles, I suggest modern day Lennon reincarnation - Kevin Parker of Tame Impala?
When there are artists like this with a whole catalog of albums and different sounds over time, why not make a video for each? Or a single bigger video with a set up for each? That would be quality content
I would agree with you that the casino is no doubt a Beatles classic, but also looking at all of the guitars John and George were pretty well known for using (ES-335 style, Gretsch, Rickenbacker, strat, tele, just to name a few. ) I think something with filtertrons is the best way to get as far in each direction if you are limited to one guitar. If they do BY busting, I would love to see them split George and John and do them separate! We need to see a Rickenbacker on this channel!
Paul McCartney played the guitar solo on Taxman and he used the Casino. They also used the Sonic Blue Strats quite a bit during the Rubber Soul and Revolver
I was the same way.... I was thinking to myself what not a Casino! The Gretsch is a great guitar and I wold love to own one one day but the Epi was is what I mostly think of them playing. To be fair though George was more known for he his Gretsch and Tele then his Casino.
I thought the same thing would be within budget too. That being said, the Gretsch sounded great. George used all kinds of guitars, Casino, stats, teles, les Paul's, SGs, Rickenbackers, Danelectros and Gretsch...
SG into one of the original Acoustic high wattage solid state amps with built-in horns and fuzztones (not the current Guitar Center house brand products)! That would be somewhat of a challenge to recreate.
Konstantinos Tsatsoylis agreed this wasn't their best, also a leslie emulator or some kind of vibrato would go well too They definitely need to do a by-busting where they play more riffs and use more effects
can we get a sound like Robin Trower or Brad Pasley without busting the bank and if you revisit the beatles, get a leslie pedal to do the single version of let it be's guitar solo
Paul McCartney recorded most of the bass post-65 by using a blend of DI and a Fender Bassman guitar amp with mic on the cone and the other about 4 or 5 feet back. So McCartney did DI bass - he literally invented it!
There's an anecdote (Likely apocryphal) that John asked if he could DI his vocals. The engineer responded with "Yeah, we've just got to install a jack in the side of your neck."
Pretty solid on the sounds...the only thing that was off, as far as I can tell, is the way Matt was playing Come Together, that nice slide from the 5th on the A to the 10th on the D is absolutely key to that riff sounding perfect...but, with the limited time to learn everything perfectly, I can let it slide, since the sounds were about as spot on as you could get for those albums
Yack, I like that Gretsch (no really where do I get one) but a centre block with what I believe is higher gain Filtertron type pickups are not a great match for the Beatles. Not even a mention for the obvious Epiphone casino? however I would really like to add that a great addition would be the Strymon Deco pedal. It emulates a lot of what the Beatles where doing with studio effects. I think the cheapest Squire telecaster; the Strymon Deco and the Vox AC15 would make a better combo for the Beatles. Add the Casino and your gold. How about doing Dorje WBB
Ron Light, they did? Oops missed that. To be fair george did play a country gentleman gretsch but those electromatic don’t sound at all like a classic Gretsch (still nothing but love for the Electromatic line)
The bass would also benefit from being full hollow. They have very cheap ones out there (the Douglas brand for example) but I doubt they sell any of the hollow knockoffs at Anderson’s. However a Casino should be there - mind boggling that they didn’t choose it.
Yeah, and to add to this, does anyone feel like they didn't really get many beatles tones out of this? They had Taxman and Come Together, that's two songs. They usually have more then that in these videos. Kinda disappointed, as that's half the reason I watch.
jakeybball dude pallbearer would be freaking awesome with their use of pedals, but im pretty sure the andertons folk like to stick to their normie stuff so kyuss, sleep, or electric wizard would still be sick. it needs to happen. they need to embrace the smoke
Wow...we need more outtakes like this at the end of the videos! This took an okay but slightly subdued video (as far as it's energy goes) to something that I'll remember for days to come.
Anybody else thinking it was never the gear that was important with The Beatles? In some cases certain gear became important after Beatles music was made with it...
The Vox amps were an important part of their sound. The 12 string Rickenbackers were important in their sound but you couldn't get one without busting the 1500 budget because they're over 1300 apiece. Although the Hofner is the iconic violin bass because of the McCartney association with it he did also use a Rickenbacker in later years. You can't do Love Me Do properly without a chromatic harmonica and you need an Ocarina for Strawberry Fields. What it comes down to is that the gear is important to their sound but you can get away with a lot if you just have two semi hollow/hollow body guitars.
Sort of, I guess. When I think Beatles gear - always what springs to mind is: Hofner bass, the John short scale Rickenbacker, and of course, the Epiphone Casino that all 3 of them used. All through Vox amps.
Sound Like Sublime would be a good challenge since Nowell's main axe was a custom, but also he used Ibanez Super Strats (not sure what exact models) a lot.
They should do Tame Impala BY BUSTING. Kevin Parker uses so many pedals & it'd be so cool to see them actually get what he actually uses. On a budget, that's tough since he also uses a Ric. Idk about the guitar, but I'd got Vox & multieffects unit for without busting, or Katana (they're awesome & have all the Boss pedals included)
Y'know as much as I enjoyed the main video seeing the outtakes and how much you guys are having fun making the videos is by far the best part, please do keep including these.
Pretty simple early days are Rickenbacker 325 and hofner 500/1 and later beatles you’d want a Rickenbacker 4001v63 and a Gibson cherry red ( or any type of red) les paul, or an epiphone casino in natural finish
I've made maybe 3 mods to the Epiphone Viola I've used for over 10 years: (a) a Switchcraft output jack; (b) flatwound strings (nickel-steel or chromes, but not black nylon); (c) stiffer pickup springs to keep the pickups from wobbling about. I'll put mine up against all the Chinese-made Hofners but not against the $1200-1800 German ones because the Germans use better wood than the Chinese do. The main reasons I go around with an Epiphone Viola is that (a) it's light enough to play all night without back pain and (b) if it's stolen or smashed I can go out and buy another one without breaking the bank. Good reasons to consider the Viola before some superstar sticks his name on one.
Great video. Nailed sound with no fx. The best gear but not the usual suspects. The most classic, listened to music played on instruments I've never seen or touched. Bonus points: got the whole thing done in 11 minutes
Paul has a signature Ibanez but it's a bit too expensive so they could go for the RG421 his amps were Laney and now Marshall JTM so they could get a Laney or a Marshall and maybe the Xotic AC Boost for billy it's a yamaha bass into a hartke bass amp and a drive pedal
I have an Epi Viola and I find that with the original strings you can get a good variety of sounds other than the classic Hofner sound. I use LaBella flatwounds on mine to get closer to the McCartney sound. Also if you're plugging into a sound board you'll need to boost your levels with an amp or a pedal as most modern equipment won't integrate it very loudly. The dials are two volume controls for each pickup (no pickup switch) and a shared tone control which makes it easier to manipulate than the Hofner switches.
EVH Wolfgang Marshall DSL20 MXR Phase 90 (for the obvious) MXR EVH Chorus MXR EVH Flanger (for Unchained) Tone City Tape Machine Tone City Tiny Spring done!
So the bloopers at the end made me laugh as hard as Matt. Best one was "I used the Gretsch Electromatic Center Block to triumphantly double team John and George". I laughed so hard I cried.
the beatles sound has been achieved with pinpoint precision both musically and vocally by the reo brothers from the Philippines … check them out you wont believe your ears and its all live in their small home practice studio
A first for Sound Like: a 3 guitar setup. I don’t think Matt would be up to being either Felder or Walsh. Make him Glenn Frey. have Rabea and guest star Danish Pete be Felder/Walsh. Or maybe just have Rabea be Felder and Walsh and give him a coil splittable Epi Les Paul.
Just in terms of pedals; The Beatles did use a few of the early fuzz pedals. For example, on Revolver, and a few Rubber Soul tracks, they used a WEM Pep Box (which recently got a reissue) for some bigger, grittier distortion. Think Paperback Writer/Rain and the Taxman guitar solo. That kind of thing. Mega sounding pedal.
I'm listening with headphones, and i was playing my guitar, and when Matt started talking it scared the shit out of me cause it sounded like someone right beside me. Why the hard pans on their voices?
Pretty standard practice when you have two people talking to a camera like this to pan their voices to either side so you can differentiate between them if you're not watching and just listening. Also means if at any point they talk over each other they won't drown each other out.
Oasis: write that down, write that down!!
It’s funny because they never really had the same gear apart from vox’s.
@@theessay2530 Well that Santa Klaus guy did have an Epiphone Casino, didn’t he?
@@Gerardoooooooo Lulz he also had a Gretsch
When you come back and revisit the Beatles, do a full hour; their range of tones deserve it.
You should do a Beatles by busting where you do Paul, John & George (bring in Lee or Rob or Joss too) to really get the full Beatles sound
*cough*Pete*cough*
Yeah, that'd be awesome
I wouldve scrapped the eq on the bass and instead add La Bella Beatle bass flatwounds (i have on my epi viola). For guitar pedals you could use a compressor and a tubescreamer-esque pedal to get some of the 1964-1966 recorded tones.
And do later beatles
I agree but drop rob and get pete.
"How many children do you have?"
"Three"
"They all normal?"
"No, one of them comments 'never clicked a notification so fast' on youtube"
I've been waiting for this one for so long, The Beatles are undeniably one of the greatest rock bands of all time. I'd still like to see a Sound Like Megadeth or Van Halen Without Busting the Bank at some point
Andrew Pappas SOUND LIKE VAN HALEN!!!!!!!! ALL THE WAY!
Megadeth would be awesome. Semi-meh on Halen. lmao
1. The guitar he saw “George play in a photo” is the Gretsch Chet Atkins Country Gentleman. Looks spot on, minus minor details. John, George, and Paul all played Casinos so that would have been a safer bet.
2. For basses you could have also went for a Squire VI, which George and John used on later tracks.
3. In Taxman Paul actually played lead guitar on his Casino. Bass was played on a Fender VI if I remember correctly.

Sounds like for The Beatles is so easy yet so difficult at the same time, because almost every instrument they ever played was so documented. That being said, on a budget, I believe you guys did a very good job!
Wow. You definitely know your Beatles information. I knew a lot of that, but that's quite a bit of information!
The fender VI was used in drive my car I think
I'm pretty sure that Paul played just the solo on Taxman, not lead guitar, but I know for a fact he did play his Rickenbacker bass on taxman as whenever they used the Fender VI they had it very quiet in the mix plus it sounds like his ricky
George used his Gretsch Chet Atkin Country Gentleman a lot! I'm suprised he saw it in just a photo, because it's used all the time from like 1963-1965.
Taxman was a Rickenbacker. A Fender Bass VI was the bass used by George or John on tracks where Paul didn’t play bass
Now let's go to the other end of the spectrum. Sounds like *Meshuggah* without busting the bank.
Nice vid. Love you two.
Uncle RJ Kitten yeah!
yes
5 string bass, B string down a half step, EADG up a half step. EQ, distortion, done. ;)
Who?
The outtakes make it an outstanding video :)
Michael Lloyd Bea coming out of the Side Hatch
The outtakes made my day! Thank you, I feel 10 yrs younger.
FWIW: for me, the shopping is the best part. Even if you know what you want, please shop more for my benefit. Hearing you show and talk about choices is far better than talk alone. Cheers.
Michael B agreed. I like to hear the thought process.
This ^ The best part of "sounds like" for me is the first part in the shop. Oh, that and outakes
agreed lol
It's amazing how much Matt looks like Glen Hansard when he is hysterically laughing at Bea "Double Teaming George and John!" :-)
Considering how tough it is to replicate their sounds from so many eras I think that a Gretsch and a Vox were your best choices and you guys really did a nice job
Definitely epi casino. Bass wise... Oh man! I love Paul's bass playing. His bass drives the song like no one else
You guys should do sound like Cream without busting the bank.
Songam 1 know what they should do is get a Yamaha Pacifica and do Phil X from Bon Jovi I think it would be pretty cool for Rabea and Matt took try to do Richie and fill like they did with George and John today
Exellent call Songam 1, that would be badass! Rite on & rock on!
Songam 1 They did sound like Eric Clapton so they kinda did do it
Hellish Citizen777 I really wanna see them try to do jack Bruce’s EB3 tone and Eric Clapton’s Cream era SG woman tone
Hellish Citizen777 They haven't done a Cream episode. All the Clapton ones they did are focused on his solo era tones. That works for Dominoes and Journeyman etc, but it's not the Cream sound.
Sorry to be a backseat driver, but, you need flatwound strings on the bass! And, you need to slide into the second note (A) on the Come Together bass line, too staccato...

on the other note, great as always! You might have just convinced me to buy that Rumble amp, brilliant! as for suggestions, maybe to stick with The Beatles, I suggest modern day Lennon reincarnation - Kevin Parker of Tame Impala?
Modern day Lennon?
Did you mean Uncle acid and the deadbeats?
6:35: there is no Beatles album called "We Can Work it Out". That is the flip of the single.
Charles Insandiego i think this should be a joke or smth
He also called the imaginary album “Can We Work It Out” 🤦🏻♂️ Smfh
Album: "Can We Work it Out?" Lol
Day Tripper was the flip side of We Can Work It Out
EVH next please!!!!
When there are artists like this with a whole catalog of albums and different sounds over time, why not make a video for each? Or a single bigger video with a set up for each? That would be quality content
0:35, no, The Beatles. I would go for Epi Casino for the hollow.
I would agree with you that the casino is no doubt a Beatles classic, but also looking at all of the guitars John and George were pretty well known for using (ES-335 style, Gretsch, Rickenbacker, strat, tele, just to name a few. ) I think something with filtertrons is the best way to get as far in each direction if you are limited to one guitar. If they do BY busting, I would love to see them split George and John and do them separate! We need to see a Rickenbacker on this channel!

To me harrison is synonymous with gretsch and Lennon is casino. That's just what I've seen in most videos, and heard most often.
Simple, but fantastic rigs! Another great "Sound Like..." Love it, fellas!
Would love to hear Sounds like Robby Krieger from the Doors!
Thomas Carmichael sg into fender clean
SG into one of the original Acoustic high wattage solid state amps with built-in horns and fuzztones (not the current Guitar Center house brand products)! That would be somewhat of a challenge to recreate.
He also used a Les Paul Custom with the Alnico pickup in the neck and outboard fuzzes.
Gibson SG, Fender Hotrod Deluxe, any fuzz and a Tremolo for Riders On The Storm
I was falling asleep when that "handily double team" came up, I completely lost it in my sleep!
cmon guys epiphone casino over gretsch,missing a compressor, a doubler pedal, a tone bende, an eq and more
Konstantinos Tsatsoylis agreed this wasn't their best, also a leslie emulator or some kind of vibrato would go well too
They definitely need to do a by-busting where they play more riffs and use more effects
SOUNDS LIKE PIXIES WITHOUT BUSTING THE BANK. MAKE IT HAPPEN!!
Great job guys, impressed, Mathew, 11:16 onwards I was in fits of laughter and my sides ache, thank you :-)
can we get a sound like Robin Trower or Brad Pasley without busting the bank
and if you revisit the beatles, get a leslie pedal to do the single version of let it be's guitar solo
oooWIII GALEE
The end of this video is unreal!! I was that guy who couldn't stop laughing
Paul McCartney recorded most of the bass post-65 by using a blend of DI and a Fender Bassman guitar amp with mic on the cone and the other about 4 or 5 feet back. So McCartney did DI bass - he literally invented it!
gibsona01 actually Motown recorded their basses using DIs and they started the studio in 59
G Kirk interesting, didn't know that!
There's an anecdote (Likely apocryphal) that John asked if he could DI his vocals. The engineer responded with "Yeah, we've just got to install a jack in the side of your neck."
I have waited so long for this video!
Pretty solid on the sounds...the only thing that was off, as far as I can tell, is the way Matt was playing Come Together, that nice slide from the 5th on the A to the 10th on the D is absolutely key to that riff sounding perfect...but, with the limited time to learn everything perfectly, I can let it slide, since the sounds were about as spot on as you could get for those albums
James Alexander the bass on Come Together certainly was with flatwounds too and they have them in the store. The slide missing did bug me too
come on, Matt, Come Together riff is played with a glissando, it's like.. what makes the part, doesn't it?
But the choice of gear is nice.
Yep by the end of each phrase 😢
ELO next!!!!!! Or maybe tom Petty and the Heartbreakers?
To play the bass on 'Come Together,' start on the open D string and slide up on it with the index finger to A.
Was that a Rubber Soul (Sole) reference on top of the attenuator? Or just my old brown shoe?
the bloopers lmaooooooo, matt can't stand the double teaming LOL
Yack, I like that Gretsch (no really where do I get one) but a centre block with what I believe is higher gain Filtertron type pickups are not a great match for the Beatles.

Not FilterTrons on that guitar, but Super HiLoTrons. That's a lower output pickup for a more vintage tone.
YES THE ONE WE’VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR!
Finally
Watching Matt lose his shit in the out-takes had me giggling like a school girl.
Awesome stuff gents :)
Love to hear Sound Like Sleep or Electric Wizard! Need some Stoner Rock on here!
Thomas Carmichael Yesss
I’ve commented that on every video!!! Windhand, Kyuss and Pallbearer would all be dope as well.
jakeybball dude pallbearer would be freaking awesome with their use of pedals, but im pretty sure the andertons folk like to stick to their normie stuff so kyuss, sleep, or electric wizard would still be sick. it needs to happen. they need to embrace the smoke
electric wizard:epiphone g400,Jus used it, and you need a good fuzz, I recommand a behringer fuzz.
Stoner m e t a l
Wow...we need more outtakes like this at the end of the videos! This took an okay but slightly subdued video (as far as it's energy goes) to something that I'll remember for days to come.
Stone Roses pleaaaaaaaaase
Twm Burrows yesss
Yes!!!!!! I’ve been waiting for this
Anybody else thinking it was never the gear that was important with The Beatles? In some cases certain gear became important after Beatles music was made with it...
The Vox amps were an important part of their sound. The 12 string Rickenbackers were important in their sound but you couldn't get one without busting the 1500 budget because they're over 1300 apiece. Although the Hofner is the iconic violin bass because of the McCartney association with it he did also use a Rickenbacker in later years. You can't do Love Me Do properly without a chromatic harmonica and you need an Ocarina for Strawberry Fields. What it comes down to is that the gear is important to their sound but you can get away with a lot if you just have two semi hollow/hollow body guitars.
Andrew Harper why do you need an ocarina for strawberry fields? if you're referring to the flute part at the beginning it's played on a mellotron.
The Beatles r music.
Sort of, I guess. When I think Beatles gear - always what springs to mind is: Hofner bass, the John short scale Rickenbacker, and of course, the Epiphone Casino that all 3 of them used. All through Vox amps.
@@andrewharper1609 There is no ocarina on Strawberry Fields Forever as far as I know
Sound Like Sublime would be a good challenge since Nowell's main axe was a custom, but also he used Ibanez Super Strats (not sure what exact models) a lot.
At last!! Now do Foals, Wolf Alice and Tame Impala
They should do Tame Impala BY BUSTING. Kevin Parker uses so many pedals & it'd be so cool to see them actually get what he actually uses. On a budget, that's tough since he also uses a Ric. Idk about the guitar, but I'd got Vox & multieffects unit for without busting, or Katana (they're awesome & have all the Boss pedals included)
Y'know as much as I enjoyed the main video seeing the outtakes and how much you guys are having fun making the videos is by far the best part, please do keep including these.
Finally!!!!
After more than a year asking
OMG I love the Beatles I'm gonna Freak out hahahaha
0:30 Missed opportunity...
"Today we're trying to sound like who?"
"Umm... no, like the Beatles, not The Who..."
Cristi Neagu yesss
Finally we’ve been waiting for so long
Can you guys do a Sound Like PRINCE (Purple Rain)? That would be really nice.
Beau Masiglat that would be awesome!
Would probably get taken down. Prince's people don't play.
wingracer 16 "How to sound like THE SYMBOL"
2:12 I'm buying it! That is absolutely beautiful. Wow. It'll take me a couple of months to raise the funds but I'm buying it. Wow wow wow!
Come on guys, when are you gonna do def leppard?
Tom Jackson that would be a great one
Yes please
But the original one with Steve Clarke
A. B. Yes, and probably the overproduced hysteria era, high n dry is bist marshall...
Love bites! Animal!
Holy crap you guys! I was just thinking that of all the artists you've done, you haven't done the Beatles! Well now you have, and I'm a happy man.
God damn I enjoyed this Sound Like video a lot!!!!!!! Thanks so much guys ;-D!!!
Pretty simple early days are Rickenbacker 325 and hofner 500/1 and later beatles you’d want a Rickenbacker 4001v63 and a Gibson cherry red ( or any type of red) les paul, or an epiphone casino in natural finish
Sound Like Ritchie Blackmore, both Deep Purple and Rainbow.
Sound Like Judas Priest

What about the $350 hofner ignition bass?
Happy to see some bass getting some love in a sounds like video! Great video!
6:30 actually the lead guitar riff in day tripper is a doubled classic blue stratocaster.
Great video. Nailed sound with no fx. The best gear but not the usual suspects. The most classic, listened to music played on instruments I've never seen or touched. Bonus points: got the whole thing done in 11 minutes
Sound like mr big please! (guitar and bass)
Paul has a signature Ibanez but it's a bit too expensive so they could go for the RG421
his amps were Laney and now Marshall JTM so they could get a Laney or a Marshall
and maybe the Xotic AC Boost
for billy it's a yamaha bass into a hartke bass amp and a drive pedal
William Allison we'll see what they do

I'm loving the inclusion of bass on this video.
I have an Epi Viola and I find that with the original strings you can get a good variety of sounds other than the classic Hofner sound. I use LaBella flatwounds on mine to get closer to the McCartney sound. Also if you're plugging into a sound board you'll need to boost your levels with an amp or a pedal as most modern equipment won't integrate it very loudly. The dials are two volume controls for each pickup (no pickup switch) and a shared tone control which makes it easier to manipulate than the Hofner switches.
Do YES! If you're doing it then you need to do Chris Squire's bass because it's 90% of their sound.
I don't think Matt is up to that.
I first heard them and thought he was the lead guitar player
Get in one of the guys from All About The Bass!
The end of this video might be the funniest thing I’ve ever seen on this channel. Amazing.
Where's the epiphone casino?
in store
The end of this shit had me dying! You the words changed every time that shit would destroy me in person hahhahaha

done!
Great guys , sounds very real well done. Very funny outtakes 😆😆🤣
That ending was the best thing since the Ampeg "arrow to the knee" video ;L
So the bloopers at the end made me laugh as hard as Matt. Best one was "I used the Gretsch Electromatic Center Block to triumphantly double team John and George". I laughed so hard I cried.
I've never heard Bea play so tastefully until he was trying to play like George Harrison.
After seeing the out-takes, it's hilarious to watch Matt try to keep it together at around the 6 minute mark!
THEY DID IT THEY DID IT THEY DID IT
Sound like RANCID without busting the bank!! Some killer underrated tones I’d love to see you guys try and create under a budget!
we need more blooper compilations
The most distinctive bass tone I’ve ever heard
Those bloopers were absolutely golden lmfao
Need more bloopers urgently. Make it happen.
Nice good. Good job I love the simplicity and the Beaty of the Beatles songs
I mean they're good but the Beatles are no Nickelback
Bats lol this guy ^^ trying hard to start shit lmao
Lmaoo 👌
That’s what I’ve been saying
Bats who are Nickleback? Never heard of them.
10/10 shitpost
him laughing at he end got me so hard hahahaha well played mr massaad
i love you matt!
“Double-team John Lennon and George Harrison.” lmao
the beatles sound has been achieved with pinpoint precision both musically and vocally by the reo brothers from the Philippines … check them out you wont believe your ears and its all live in their small home practice studio
If you want to sound like Lennon, just complain about everything
Federico Ruttkay this is gold
You just summed up Imagine in one sentence.
Or beat ur wide
While high
I like George and Ringo.
IS THIS REAL LIFE
before the onslaught of requests I thank you Matt and rabea
Oh hell this is gonna be good.....
Wonderful work as always. You two are an exquisite double team. :-)
Sound like: THE EAGLES
ThatGamerGuy77 and the crickets
ThatGamerGuy77 Yes!!
ThatGamerGuy77 yass...has Matt be Don Felder and have Bea be Joe Walsh
This. Every video I ask for this!
A first for Sound Like: a 3 guitar setup. I don’t think Matt would be up to being either Felder or Walsh. Make him Glenn Frey. have Rabea and guest star Danish Pete be Felder/Walsh.
Or maybe just have Rabea be Felder and Walsh and give him a coil splittable Epi Les Paul.
Just in terms of pedals; The Beatles did use a few of the early fuzz pedals.
For example, on Revolver, and a few Rubber Soul tracks, they used a WEM Pep Box (which recently got a reissue) for some bigger, grittier distortion. Think Paperback Writer/Rain and the Taxman guitar solo. That kind of thing.
Mega sounding pedal.
Randy Rhoads BY busting the bank!!!!
I'm listening with headphones, and i was playing my guitar, and when Matt started talking it scared the shit out of me cause it sounded like someone right beside me. Why the hard pans on their voices?
It also REALLY messed with me hearing Bea on my left when he was standing on the right
It's a beatles thing
It's disconcerting for sure.
Pretty standard practice when you have two people talking to a camera like this to pan their voices to either side so you can differentiate between them if you're not watching and just listening. Also means if at any point they talk over each other they won't drown each other out.
But the hard L-R is just a Beatles thing. Normally the mics would be panned only slightly.
When Rabea said 'We hope you enjoy the video' I couldn't help but think he missed a chance to say 'We hope you enjoy the show' XD
Get Pete in on "Beatles by busting" so you can have that extra guitar.
The panning - oh my God - Matt said Rabea and I jumped of my chair and looked to the left - Rory :) keep being great
You should do one of these for the Stone Roses
