As a guitar player, I don't hear this bass as overlapping a guitar. It has a different sound, and an actually very enjoyable one. I think you did a great job playing its strengths.
Yeah, different Timbre.
Well that just shows that your ear could use some training, because at 440, it's in the exact same frequency as your guitar. It has a different sound? Do you mean tone? Because all guitars have different tones from each other, or there would just be one guitar for everything.
@@JeighNeither Prick comment
@@JeighNeither Thicker strings produce vastly different tone.
Rene killing it even on a tiny bass
Yeah man, this was an absolute pleasure to mix. He really is an outstanding musician!
@@basstheworldofficial has he got a band or his own channel?
@@jake-qc2wu here you go: czcams.com/channels/d0tUZ-T7QSGdq0jdiKby_A.html
Who is he? Nice sound and melodic concept.
@Nickhead87 are you saying sounding black sounds dumb and uneducated? That's super racist there, guy.
OML! ITS A BARITONE UKULELE WITH DYSLEXIA😂😂😂
You win !!!
@Fluffy Bunnykins I'm under 50 and I do!
@Fluffy Bunnykins one of Les Claypool's bass?
@Fluffy Bunnykins Joe DeMaio also has a piccolo bass with a whammy bar, he shreds on them like crazy.
What? This has so correlation at all
Fantastic playing on this demo. Keep it up, guys!
thank you.
Is Mayones an instrument?
Yes, Patrick. Mayones IS an instrument.
Yes you can also put those instruments on your french fries if you wish ! :-)
Of course it is, you can hear it all over today's top 40 music! Actually if you listen too much, your cholesterol and blood pressure shoot through the roof.
This finally ends the debate! Mayonnaise *_is_* and instrument
No Patrick, *Mayones* is not an instrument.
I saw this video a number of times but didn't do anything to listen to it. I finally broke down and listened to it. Wow, I'm totally impressed with the sound and playability of those little guys. So glad I stopped and gave it a listen. Now I want one. I have been playing guitar and bass since my teens and now I'll be 70 in June. I learned something new with seeing this fine instrument demonstrated. This guy can play that little bass very well. Thanks for sharing how wonderful this little instrument is.
softer than guitar, brighter than bass
It's a very short scale piccolo bass which is a really great idea and I'm surprised it's not a more popular concept. Thank you so much for this video! Very short scale basses have been around for a while but there aren't many videos of really good bassists playing them.
Grant L. Jackson Absolutely. René’s playing is phenomenally musical.
What's your definition of a really good bassist?
Are there any good quality ones that won’t take a year to manufacture?
There are not many bassists wearing bass picks because it doesn't make sense. In that case better to use a guitar with many more harmonics
@@rastanz Excellent question
I think it's the perfect thing to have on your desk to record quick ideas you wanna share with your band mates.
Okay - this just blew my mind. As a guitar player of 10 years, bass has always been a secondary instrument to me. However, I could see myself making so much music with this. It's the perfect travel instrument somewhere between the guitar and bass, and absolutely gorgeous to boot.
Jealous!!!
Received my Cali4 today and you are right, the are a great deal of fun and indeed very well made. Somehow I expected it to be much lighter. It is a little piece of art created by the craftsman and/or woman of Mayones. Love mine 👍🏻✌🏻
Before he even mentioned the price, I heard Mayones and all I could think was "thousands of dollars."
Lance Olson or a confused baritone ukulele😂
These are "nice", but I'll take the solid,beefy sound of my full size basses!
I love those tunes you played on these little basses.
Very cool, I would never think these could be of any use in a normal setting, but the octave pedal solution is very neat. They look and sound magnificent. 1300E is a lot, but you can instantly see the design and build quality is top end
i got mine #22 (#12 of the selection) on monday ✨, very good work and a lot of fun in the future...THANKS Mayones!!!
2:19 reminded me to "Last Train Home" by Pat Metheny
I really did not expect that type of sound to come out of such a short scale. Very impressive!
Simply beautiful bass
What a beautiful instrument
Actually I think they're going to sell a lot of these. The built in headphone amp is brilliant. I could be wrong ( I usually am ) but I think the demand for these will will outpace the availability of "scrap" timbers.
Very pleasing sound.
Beautifully made! And unlike a lot of novelty instruments, these have a really great tone.
Lovely wee thing. Further investigation for me on these. Thanks for the vid.
Fantastic sound
Excellent review of a unique instrument - thanks!
Love my Mini Cali 4.
They look and sound wonderful.
Yep need one of these for myself and so my 4 year old can play with me.. Killer video of a killer small bass
Gregor and crew, keep up the good work! I love the snarky humor in this video. It’s nice to see the lighter side of things. Opening joke almost make me shoot milk out my nose.
I like how smooth and rounded the body is. It’s probably very comfortable to play. I have a short scale acoustic bass so I have a hard time finding anything strange anymore.
What an amazing sound
Awesome looking mini basses! I loved your review.
A micro scale piccolo bass.... beautiful concept! I must get one 😇
Wow they sound excellent.
This thing is amazing, definitely going to try and get one
that man's playing on that first tune just reached in and warmed my soul
thank s for watching.
Man! I see you are enjoying yourself more than ever. Congrats
I would like to hear it as a part of an ensemble, to see how it interacts with other instruments, specially guitars and "normal" basses
They always playing beautiful songs
WOW! Loving This! THX!
They do sound terrific.
It's so cute, and I'm really digging the tone
Its always nice to see rene
Beautiful instruments.
Such a good sound!
If those weren't that expensive I'd buy one. Sounds great
I would really enjoy picking that instrument as much as my guitar especially a beautiful tune like that
Might need to build a mini Stonehenge to go with it :)
I don't know about that, do you think the dancers might Trod on it?
They are so cool and sound great
Sounds great!
I think it’s sick idea for an instrument , I just wish it was a more affordable. $1500 (dollar conversion and minimal shipping) is a lot for something that would not be my main instrument. Hoping this idea catches on and other companies start making more affordable ones.
In my local store there are ukulele basses, i think even amplifiable.
They have rubber strings but sound very cool. Expecially the fretless one i tried.
I think they are between 100 and 200 euros.
@@asmodeus9075 those are actual bass instruments and fill a different role
the Kala U-Bass is priced around 450€
@Lee McDonald There are much cheaper uke basses around and even those are useful, if not exactly fun to work with.
However, the Kala is a quality instrument (spotty QC notwithstanding) with plenty of professionals around that are using it well. If you don't know what to do with one, that's on you, but it's a good rule of thumb not to project your failures onto others.
it sounds so nice!
Lead Bass! What a beautiful instrument!
I want one!
Yes please!
Nice. Playing.Smart octave drop.Brilliant video beautiful music.
Sweet sounds for such a little guy .
awesome guys! best mini bass ever!
Beautiful tunes!!! Great playing!!! NS from Puerto Rico!!! Land of the ampeg baby bass!!!
Es increíble, lo quiero!!!!
That’s a beautiful little bass I want one.
That is a thing of beauty!
love the train song at the end
imagine playing metal on this thing. i need this in my life!
We just recorded a metal track with one of those. Video comes out in 4 weeks
@@basstheworldofficial can't wait to watch it!
This is great! Have you all seen the great stuff Wing Instruments has been making? They make a lot of short scale basses, 4-7 strings, fretted/fretless, and more options. Haha sorry for sounding like a commercial. I really love the fact that Mayones is making sure they use what they’ve already taken from the earth. Plus, they appear to have the typical incredible quality for which the company is known.
I did not realize such instruments existed. Very cool.
Marleaux has a very similar concept (as far as I can tell) callef the Marleaux Soprano. It looks like a down version of their Consat bass Modell, with only one Humbucker and higher Tuning.
This seems so fun
Hobbit Highend Bass! René showed so much passion, technique and Groove again that it' blows my mind!
I love it! My heart melt for mini stuff, this one fills all the criteria, sadly is super costly.
I love that guitar...
Very cool thanks
Love the sound of this tiny bass. Wish i knew how to play Bass...
Just great stuff
Wow, I love this! I remember the battery powered basses from a few years ago, not sure the make and model, but always liked them. This would be perfect for on the go practice if the price is right.
I think these are very cool. I'd buy one. I could see it being useful in low volume settings in combination with a percussionist as a duo, or in a trio with a lead instrument; for entertaining small (lol) crowds. Of course, it's just fun too - and isn't that what music is all about?
So cute and sounds very nice
I love the tambre of the instrument.
Que criatividade ótimo instrumento.
surprising good sound!
This is soo cool! Great for small get togethers...
Probably wouldn't get one for myself(I already have an u-bass and an acoustic short scale piccolo bass), but that thing is still cool as heck!
I love it.
Love it !!!!
That is so cool I have to get one
1:52 when he starting playing what ever that was I absolutely fell in love. Is that a song or just some riff he knows because man it swept me off my feet!
Its a c section of a song called "raindrops" by "gene caberra band" . Album comes this autumn. Feel free to check our CZcams channel. Thanks for your kind words.
@@reneflachsenhaar2968 I can't find it anywhere,how can one listen to it?
@@theTrend7 hey, because of some private issues we had to skip the release in to this autumn. best, rene.
The Bass gnome is kill'n it on that mini.
I really like Mayonnes basses look and choice of build styles. These look the part but are cute and tiny I would totally enjoy messing with one
AMAZING !! So cool....
I want one! Why not , I have plenty of 4 strings & 5 strings... a little pricey, but sounds great. Great to double it with a regular 4 string. I don't think I'd use it without an octave pedal.
I’m a jaded guitarist of 10 years and recently bought a Harley Benton bass (it’s amazing) been playing it for like 2 weeks solid and picked up my guitar to see if I could still play and it felt like a toy! I no longer give a shit about guitars...bass all the way
Tombro well if u wanna give any to me since they arent for u anymore😂😂 ill take em
Those look like some cool toys! I’d buy one!
i'd buy it. looks cool, sounds cool, build well. F**k yeah
beautiful lil thang
Many bass players I know find something like the Bass 6 to be difficult to play. This mini-bass gives bass players a melody instrument that has a familiar feel.
"there's no need to talk about how much sense these basses make, they are what they are"
Great line, so german.
Welp! I need one of these asap.
AWESOME!👍🏻
I think that has to be the best bass I have seen.
Aw need one
I love my semi acoustic Ubass. I can sit on the couch in front of the tv with it in my lap and jam along to youtube clips and plugged in to an amp it has a surprisingly full bass sound. I was really excited for this up until I realized it's designed for guitar tuning. It's beautifully made with top shelf hardware and electronics, likely worth that price in euros, but the wrong octave for me. Pity.
