Wow! That has to be one of the most beautiful bass guitars I've ever laid my baby blues on. The way that black pickguard and silver/gray color scheme blends together is outstanding. Bully, you sure look happy with this one.
The Tele version of the Meteora is without question the sexiest guitar I've ever seen. So excited that they made a bass Meteora. It just made my list of future purchases.
They are sweet for sure! I played one when I was looking for an Aerodyne. They play nice and are very punchy. If I wasn’t looking for an Aerodyne I may have went with this. Great review I like the unboxing.
It’s great that all of these meteora videos are coming out today. I’ve been looking at this color too. Definitely a mod platform for a series/parallel/single coil toggle switch. Or a north/series/south situation. 🤔 great to see you enjoying it.
DAMN i keep watching vids and seeing reactions like this about this bass, if it was a couple hundo cheaper id have one already no questions asked lol but regardless im gonna get me one! just gotta decide between silverburst or the sunburst.... decisions decisions
Dimension vibes at least they changed those pickups so you have options to change them if need be. Wish they had the pickup selector like the old American deluxe dimension had. Love they included the passive switch. Sliver burst is awesome also.
From the neck side the pots are , volume, pan pot,treble boost/cut, midrange dual pot(top small pot level/volume, bottom ring pot is mid frequency range),last pot is bass boost/cut...the mid may be the other way around,i played it last year so cannot remember but definately mid boost/cut & mid frequency sweep,don't know range of mid sweep though, i would rather have a good quality 3 band eq, EMG or Nordstrand with a dual pot bass & treble ,seperate mid pot (could mount a dual pot for mid boost/cut & midrange sweep) then you can fit a passive tone pot in the old bass pot hole.....either would work & give you a passive tone pot for passive use.....
Originally not sold on the shape, but daaaaang that is saucy! Interested if Fender will begin another range of pickups because of this beast. Cheers and thanks for sharing!
Mate, I loved this video you did. I was laughing right along with you from the start.. And then when you finally got the thing out of the foam sleeve you sounded like you were anticipating the moment of "getting in on" with a girl, hahaha. But yeah great vid. I definitely don't consider myself a Fender person but this model and color are very very nice (I think you agree ;) BTW, starting at around the @8:30 mark you suddenly got a groove on just like a young Geezer Butler. Check out the first 3 or 4 Black Sabbath albums (if you didn't already).
Thanks for reviewing non beginner level basses.It good to see something other than a Square or Harvey Benton $200. Now I do wish we could be the body color and neck witch is the only thing holding me back. Would love a sun bust with black pick guard and Pau Ferro neck but thats not an option. I may get a blue one then strip it.
Hey Bully are you a U of H fan? I seldom see anyone that carries that torch except me and my Fam!!!! That’s one cool hoodie!!!! Your bass playing is exceptional too!!!!
I literally just deleted an email telling me about the new meteora, I looked at it and thought nah, hella ugly. Then you held this one up and now I'm confused. I kinda like it
I literally am unboxing mine right now ( sunburst) ..i have no idea what ANY of the knobs do ..working it out..no instructions on battery replacement ..nothing.. but it plays lovely
Looks like a nice bass. I see in the background what appears to be a Aguilar Tonehammer 350. I'd like to hear your thoughts on that or even better, a review.
I really like the way that one looks. I wonder if you could wire a 3 way (series/parallel/single coil) switch to those pickups. Pickguard reminds me of a Fender Dimension, which is not a bad thing.
My only hesitation would be the strap balance. How does it feel with that short upper horn? Neck heaviness is an instant no for me, even if I like the rest.
Thats one of the coolest Fenders ive ever seen. Pretty jelly right about now lol
The Meteora shape works so much better for bass than for guitar, imo. Great video!

Looks like a jaguar and a dimension bass had a crazy night together
It seems a shame there are no coil taps on the humbuckers. Like a stingray type selector.
They do look very nice.
From what I've seen on TB those Fireballs are 4 wire so you could add series parallel single switching
@@travatron4000 sweet!
They are sweet for sure! I played one when I was looking for an Aerodyne. They play nice and are very punchy. If I wasn’t looking for an Aerodyne I may have went with this. Great review I like the unboxing.
I'm am Ibanez guy but damn.. that bass is majestic!!!
I've been here for 3 years. Still remember it like it was yesterday that I first found your channel. Glad to see how much you've grown
I love seeing people when they're happy 😁
what a tight groove right there 9:23 on tune with the futuristic sound of this awesome piece of wood
For $1200 it better come setup, looks good. Right colors for a Raiders fan
Wow; that is absolutely awesome. I'm speechless.. Last time I was blown away by a bass was when I saw the Music Man Big Al.
That silver burst is gorgeous
I got the Lake Placid Blue Meteora HH on its previous run. It's become my favorite Fender guitar shape and I'm glad they now have it on bass.
That thing is SICK. Loving the new Fender gear.
It’s great that all of these meteora videos are coming out today. I’ve been looking at this color too. Definitely a mod platform for a series/parallel/single coil toggle switch. Or a north/series/south situation. 🤔 great to see you enjoying it.
Oh, that color is mighty nice. I haven’t seen any of these yet. Your review will be interesting 👍
I think that the best thing they did is, go with those pickups and the preamp.
humbucker + pre amp is the best combo ever
That groove was hypnotic!
Welcome to the Meteora club!
I would have preferred a few different control options, but my issues are minimal at most.
Super sweet bass all around!
Fender is staying in the game with new products people will want.
Come on Bully! Growl at it!!!
Bro that joint is 🔥🔥🔥
DAMN i keep watching vids and seeing reactions like this about this bass, if it was a couple hundo cheaper id have one already no questions asked lol but regardless im gonna get me one! just gotta decide between silverburst or the sunburst.... decisions decisions
Perfect color for a Raider fan

The funkiest unboxing eva!
The George Jetson signature model. Looks sweet!
Ra Ro Rorge…
Nice bass.
I will look forward to you putting it through its paces.

Sounds fantastic! I love your Bass faces.
That looks way better as a bass than it does a guitar. That silver and black burst is gorgeous.
It would have been nice to have a tone knob in passive mode. That's the thing holding me up on one.

Its a shame its not possible to switch those humbuckers to single coils, would be a huge selling point at that price range
Like is Kid at Christmas. Love it Bro
You being a Raiders fan thats a nice colorway for you
Wow! I was just getting used to the new 40th anniversary Jazz bass now THIS ONE is out! Geez!🤨🎶👍🏾
I love it. Looks and sounds great.
I don't particularly care for Jaguars but this bass looks gorgeous
I just saw these on Sweetwater. had to come to yt for a review. sounds great. thanks for the vid. make mine a tequila sunrise
Great demo! I loved the stank 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hey Bully are you a U of H fan? I seldom see anyone that carries that torch except me and my Fam!!!! That’s one cool hoodie!!!! Your bass playing is exceptional too!!!!
Absolutely beautiful

Great unboxing really cool and you would make anyone want to buy one 👍
HOLY FUDGE! I want.....no no....I NEED one of these. Instant love.
Silver and black you happy!!
I haven't seen those yet. That thing looks awesome.
That's a beautiful bass brother
I literally am unboxing mine right now ( sunburst) ..i have no idea what ANY of the knobs do ..working it out..no instructions on battery replacement ..nothing.. but it plays lovely
VERY NICE BASS, I LIKEE THE LOOK
THAT right there is a sweet rig.
diggin it.... looks and sounds awesome
Gorgeous!
I hope Fender releases a left handed version soon
Overall aesthetics aside, this kinda reminds me of the Fender Dimension Bass…more specifically the double humbucker version.
I’ve heard that those pickups were basically double jazzes under the covers too.
@BullyThakidd Is it Christmas morning ?
😁😁I really enjoyed watching you open that box and gig bag brother 😱😱
Looks like a nice bass. I see in the background what appears to be a Aguilar Tonehammer 350. I'd like to hear your thoughts on that or even better, a review.
Nice !!!! Enjoy brother !🙏💪😁👍
Amen brother you rock new subscriber and new fan love your playing 💘
Now that bass sounds good straight out of the box I can beat the frets & roundwounds off that one Nice.... Price of it?
Wow !!!! I never saw a double pickup Fender before.
None of my new guitars ever came in the gig bag.
Nice color.
Lets goooooo
Is it tuned down a 1/2 step ? I noticed your on the 4 th fret & still getting a C note.
that looks amazing !!!
I really like the way that one looks. I wonder if you could wire a 3 way (series/parallel/single coil) switch to those pickups. Pickguard reminds me of a Fender Dimension, which is not a bad thing.
What pedal was you using when u put da stank on it?
How does it sound with a pick? Looks great -- and your groove is right on the money.
Looks amazing
Sharpest Fender Meteora Bass there ever was!
My only hesitation would be the strap balance. How does it feel with that short upper horn? Neck heaviness is an instant no for me, even if
I like the rest.
Can this bass reach a fat tone like a jazz bass or should i just buy a jazz?
Oh wow...I like this.
That is almost as nice design as a Backlund or Guttlin. Thanks for sharing. Time to save up my pennies.
The guy is great.
Man I just bought a Ray 34 otherwise I would probably jump all over the blue one and buy a Pearl pick Guard for it the second they offered it.
Looks and sounds like something John Entwistle would of liked.
Wish they made this in America, string through body.
what would be the difference?
just grad one it does feel good and easy to play
Hey what's up bro I was wondering if you are selling or giving away any bass guitars?
🔥🔥🔥
Insane
It would be fire if it has a rosewood fret fingerboard!
What pedal are you using there?
More than likely an envelope filter
how much does it cost friend?
In my country there is still no sign of him, greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽💯
1200
@@BullyThaKidd thnks Bro
cool fender
Very nice
Is it a medium sized bass?
It looks like a new version of the Dimension Bass they released a decade or so ago combined with the Jaguar. Looks dope.
Nice!
How is the weight Bully?
About 8 or 9 lbs
Love the shape but the original headstock doesn't suit this design. Wish they put more effort in designing this concept.
Jag body with Dimension electronics.
Put some Bootzilla's on that bad boy!
What foot switch was he using if anyone knows ?
The one that comes withthe fender rumble stage amp
Will lefties be available?
