I assume this is because of their 7 string tuning. The lowest string is probably tubed the same as the guitar, so he doesn't have to switch between the 6 and 7 string guitar songs.
My 5 string bass is set up in GCGCF. So I can play it as a 4 string Drop C bass or in G for the lower stuff (e.g. Lorna Shore, Northlane,...). All strings get used, but yeah, depends on the songs. Same with my 8 string (EAEADGBE).
Damn, been listening to BFW for 4 years now and you guys are one of my favorite bands, only now did I find out what the bassist looks like xd We need more love for bassists, signed, a guitarist
Gutted you weren't there at the Newcastle show with Trivium, still a great night but as a bass player I was looking forward to seeing you play the BFW stuff live, hopefully next time!
Bleed from within is one of my favorite bands, yet I can't help but feel like the bass should have more presence. Or, at least, a tone that doesn't get easily mixed with the guitars and the bass drum. Cause this guy plays like a fucking beast and has the same (if not more) pinpoint accuracy as the guitarists, we should be able to hear him more easily

How this band has been playing for 17 years and only a few years they came to prominence is beyond me! So much talent!
Most bands never come to any prominence. No matter how long they're around.
That's a fucking killer bass tone
Oh damn! Not every day you see a bass playthrough. Awesome to learn from, thank you guys!
And one of their underrated songs, too.
That 5th string be like: "Yo bro😢 I exist"

IKR...Frustrating to see this..same with 7/8 string guitarists who dont use their 7th/8th string AT ALL
So as 1 and 2 strings.

Holy fucking shit
That bass tone is dreamy. Playing is so tight too. Interesting to see mostly
Playing on the higher 4 strings, what’s the reason behind that? Sick!
I would assume he didn't want to tune up on the other 5 strings if he used the bottom one. Outside of that, I don't know his reasoning 😂
🤘❤️👍
🎉
Fuck YEAH !
The 5th string is bleeding from within
Guya when bass tabs available? Don't forget there are bassist out there
Can you show me the pedal settings for this bass tone
what shirt is that? band shirt or no?
Neural DSP Darkglass, Parallax or QC?
