    Kinda sounds like your playing a bass and a banjo at the same time I love it

    I am a certified bass sitter if you ever need to have somebody watch that thing for a couple of weeks for you. Love the sound.

    First time of my life I see a 12 string bass that is 6 double strings! It exist! :D

    Andy, been a Drummer/Percussionist for 35 years, and wanted to open myself up even more as a musician, so I recently picked up the Bass. I've been playing now for 3 months, and I have a great teacher. I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your videos and your playing. I'm inspired! Continued success to you Sir, and I hope to catch one of your clinics if you are ever in the Harrisburg, PA area.

    So unique, not just the bass, but the bass lines are just so original Ive never heard anything like it. Amazing

  • @joshstarkey8883
    @joshstarkey8883 Před 7 lety +2

    This seems really unique, looking up 12 string bass you mostly see 4×3 or 12×1, not 6×2. Pretty cool

  • @Throppo98
    @Throppo98 Před 9 lety +8

    You've become my favorite bassist. This is great.

  • @dolcedolente
    @dolcedolente Před 8 lety +1

    Andy, I really dig your sense of adventure and musicality on the 12-string! You kinda make me want one. Let the haters cry about it; all I hear are rich, ethereal tones. ;)

    The next guitarist that starts bagging on about extended range basses I'm going to refer them to this video.
    If they're still too thick to get it after that then there's no hope for them lol.😄
    Nice vid, subbed!👍🏻

  • @zennjimm
    @zennjimm Před 9 lety +1

    I was ready to make compensating jokes, but this instrument does sound great. A beautiful natural octaver, great chordal sounds, etc. And you demonstrated wonderfully Andy. Thanks for sharing.

    Wow threewise! The funny thing is, when I close my eyes, I hear a twelve string acoustic guitar with amp, beautiful sound, and it made me think about it....maybe one once for me.

    Such a versatile bass looks awesome too.

  • @6672rock
    @6672rock Před 10 lety +8

    Very nice! Quite a full tone with lots of sustain. I was expecting a different kind of 12-string bass, like the one Tom Peterson of Cheap Trick or Chip Z' Nuff of Enuff Z' Nuff plays with the two octave strings for every root string. Regardless, I like this too! Ever thought about getting an 18-string? Granted, you're getting some amazing tones now, but add another octave string for every root, and that would totally take things to a whole new level!

  • @siner40

  • @Blueshirt38
    @Blueshirt38 Před 10 lety

    I have never played an octave bass, but I really want to try one. They have such a cool sound, and I don't like that people see it as such a one-trick-pony. I could feel that sound in rock and metal as much as I could in funk and solo bass work.

  • @JamieMallender
    @JamieMallender Před 9 lety

  • @FronzClownz
    @FronzClownz Před 8 lety +3

    Ever since Jeff Ament and Tom Petersson I've always wanted one of these.
    The pricing though.. And 5 string version with 15 .

  • @nsalaza
    @nsalaza Před 10 lety

    And for those of us who would probably not have a need for this (although this thing is beautiful), thank goodness for octavers! LOL. Andy seemed to get annoyed about people saying that octavers would be the same thing! This thing does sound damn cool when slapped.

  • @blakemariani5443

    you are the first person I've seen playing a 12 string that is not covering Jeremy by Pearl Jam. Thank you. I am now convinced that a 12 string is my next purchase.

    • @Crodon
      @Crodon Před 10 lety +6

      This is a different kind of 12 string tho.

    • @pnp072000
      @pnp072000 Před 6 lety

      zaphbrannigan This is a 6 string double course bass while the bassist for Pearl Jam uses a 4 string triple course bass. They both have 12 strings, but the one that Andy Irvine is using has a larger range of notes.

    • @freakystyley4000
      @freakystyley4000 Před 6 lety

      This is a double-course 12-string bass tuned Bb Ee Aa Dd Gg Cc. Jeff Ament from Pearl Jam plays a a triple-course 12-string bass tuned Eee Aaa Ddd Ggg.

    What if you put an octave pedal on that bass???!!!? It sounds awesome thanks for all the cool videos Andy !!!

  • @Nuk3mB455
    @Nuk3mB455 Před 10 lety

    Holy smokes!! Does is have any neck dive? That must be 10 lbs of tuners. hahaha Sounds wonderful!! I agree 100%; octave pedals only work in theory.

  • @giuseppemare
    @giuseppemare Před 6 lety

    Those thats scough do so because they can't see the possibilities. The sounds coming out of your hands is amazing Andy! Remind me where can I take lessons from you? Are you on-line somewhere? Your hands make great sounds!

  • @RussianMoses
    @RussianMoses Před 9 lety

    Great demo, great playing! As usual :)))
    Is it considerably heavier than usual 5 or 6 string basses? I guess such a bass should have reinforced neck and reinforced truss rod.

  • @classicbass3456
    @classicbass3456 Před 9 lety

    awesome bass id love to own it but if warwick sold it you know they'd price it at something ridiculous like 8k

  • @edenite

  • @craigdamage
    @craigdamage Před 7 lety +1

    Put flatwounds on as your main strings. (E-A-D-G) in combination with the other 8. Just do it. You'll thank me.

    • @craigdamage
      @craigdamage Před 7 lety

      oops....I meant B-E-A-D-G-C with the other six drone strings.

  • @BryanAcampo
    @BryanAcampo Před 10 lety

  • @olegaleksanych7330
    @olegaleksanych7330 Před 10 lety

    Dear Andy.
    What type of slap technique are you using?
    I mean your thumb after the stroke.
    Is it bouncing off from the string or just falling to the next string?
    Thank you ;)

  • @carloschacin6073
    @carloschacin6073 Před 9 lety +1

    It's a really good instrument but isnt this hard to because of the huge headstock and the 12 comfortably angled tuners

  • @chubfarm2001
    @chubfarm2001 Před 8 lety

    This is an amazing instrument. Have you ever played around with the tuning of the octave strings? I have an 8 that I tuned the A-D-G at 5ths instead of octaved, and I love it. If I ever have that chance to own one of these, I will.
