Next month, ' The cheapest band playing ALL the cheapest gear ' ? :D
Before that, we'll need "Cheapest drums," "Cheapest audio mixer," "Cheapest interface," "Cheapest cables," "Cheapest roadies"....
And cheapest groupies?
If youre offering ,@@asteck123cas 😜
@@asteck123cas That might require a follow-up with 'cheapest penicillin'
Cheapest guitarist? I gotchu fam. I only request three and a half cents.
Rerecord your intro song using all your cheapest gear plus a free drum pack. Document the process and post the results. Please?
Matt Kettmann This is a great idea!
Knowing him he’ll see that and do it with the cheapest instruments but still with the most expensive recording gear lol
@@herpderpinson6117 Well, of course!
Matt Kettmann He’s gotta go all the way and use cheap equipment to record it too but he would never...
Such a good idea

Fluff uses pick to play bass
Davie504: has entered the chat
@@SlyHikari03 well actually no one said that playing with a pick sucks, why would u say slap sucks? so salty man
Yoshi_Dino_Kiddo every style of playing is awesome when used right
Yeah. But slap is overrated bro.

It might not be the best instrument, but it is amazing you can get a usable instrument for that price these days.
Right? Even if you threw a hotter pickup in it for $100 it’s still worth, what?, roughly $150? That’s pretty insane.
It's great for someone like me that's a complete beginner. I just want something cheap to start off with so it's nice that you no longer have to drop several hundred for a starter guitar these days.
Make sure you get it set up properly. Many people think their instrument sucks when in fact it just needs a setup. Things like high action and bad intonation make it much more difficult to learn and can be real motivation killers.
@@A.J.K87 don't worry, I know it'll need a setup so I'll get that done the second it arrives tomorrow. :)
Slave labour, god bless capitalism eh? The bass sounds better than my £350 sterling sub, which farts in the same spots on the E string...
*I'm never surprised when a cheap instrument sounds good after all the price of most instruments are not because of the sound but because of the quality of the materials use to build it*
Yes. We all know soundwaves needs air. If there was no air the instrument would be dead silent. Does this bass come with air included or do we need to use our own ? ( air )
@@bjornhelgerolla what
@@bjornhelgerolla I believe this bass connects to a 'free use' Y-Fi like system that's accessible as long as it's not submerged in water...the industry seems like it's going in that direction.
@@bjornhelgerollaI just fart in mine every now and again, it does the trick..
"Taking this to a guitar shop and just getting a bass-ic setup would do wonders as well." I see you there, Fluff, I see you...
What does he mean by basic setup oof I want to get into Bass but I have no clue what many terms mean
Xx darkness23 a setup on a guitar (and bass guitar) means you adjust the neck relief (the bend in the neck), the bridge saddle height, and the nut height (the nut holds the strings at the top of the neck) to bring the “action” (the string height) to a place where it can be easily played without needing to use too much finger tension to get good sound. Cheap guitars often come with crazy high string action because the factory line nature of mass producing these cheap instruments doesn’t allow time or effort for proper factory adjustment. You can bring a guitar to just about any music shop (or a guitar center) and get a setup for little to no cost, especially if you buy your instrument from there.
@@SoCalGuitarist Who invited you to be just a great person with free education my dude
The cheapest beard on Amazon next time! I really need one...
Underrated comment.
wow i thought i was the only one
My first bass was a principle bass which I’m pretty sure was the cheapest on amazon at the time. I actually got it from a friend for free because it was so cheap. The deal was that if he gave me the bass I would replace him in his band. I always wanted to be in a rock band so I agreed. He gave me the bass and a little ampeg combo. 6 years later I’m still jamming with the guitarist from that first band I joined and we have an EP coming out at the end of July. These cheap instruments aren’t built well but without options like this I might have never started playing.
You should have played and justice for oh.....
that low output would be perfect!
@@jirapatthaenphromrat2910 No, no you know what he should have done to play ajfa? He should try this bass recording a bass cover of for example blackened and record with the bass unplugged.
@@ritualdeathmetal lmao
@@jirapatthaenphromrat2910 That could work actually
I started playing bass on that, and I started playing guitar on the cheapest guitar on amazon... somehow I didnt quit
I actually bought this bass (but branded as Glarry and in sunburst) and it's not bad at all. I'm already a keyboard player but wanted to learn bass, so I just took a gamble on it. £99 all-in with a practice amp included. Intonation was fine out the box, the tuners aren't jumpy and hold and I was able to adjust the truss rod to get it to a point where the action isn't 100m in the air. Got it to somewhere around 2mm just eyeballing it.
You're right in that it's extremely low output. I feed it direct into a Soundcraft Signature MTK24 and I need about 30 to 40db gain. I just use a free VST amp/cab sim (Bass Preamp V.1 by Ronald Passion) and it sounds great for what I want to use it for (mellow Disco basses for house music).
Some better pickups in the future and it's a keeper for sure.
yeh i mean for a beginner tbh i dont see anything wrong with this. people get so hung up on having cool gear when they are nowhere near the level required to utilize it. this would do anyone for a year and if theyr still into bass, upgrade ^^ if not then u really havent lost much
@@Auron710 i mean if the bass is built well and has decent fretwork done on it then you could just upgrade those nasty pickups
i think i got the same one as you... came branded as 'rock jam' though
3:57 NOFX - all of me
Alright styrofoam, I LOVE STYROFOAM!
-ozone layer has left the chat-
I bought a very similar bass on eBay when I was 17 for about the same price when I first started playing and I loved that thing. Top heavy as can be, the pick ups started rusting after a few years, a “cool” sunburst color. It was my only bass for years. So thank you for sharing this, you definitely have me reminiscing and missing my beginning days as a bass player.
Mmm that Chinese petro-chemical smell. I know it well.
i’ve had one for almost a year and it’s honestly really good it’s really easy to play, except for the strings you’re really getting your money’s worth
Gets a package he doesn't recognize.... Checks Amazon order history instead of just opening it....
you never know if someone mailed him doodoo
He could see it was a guitar/bass and lots of people wait until it reaches room temperature to open it up for some reason. He was probably doing that so he had to check amazon.
thomistking If he doesn’t remember buying it then it might’ve been someone else’s package, but we know it was his because he checked his order history...
you should never open a package that you don't believe is yours
The forced chinese labor smell.. ahh its the best you can almost hear their screams while playing the bass
That's metal
Shut up rice picker
@@memeshack9454 it's probably true tho
many of the parts of more expensive and expensive guitars you get at the guitar shop are made in china by the same forced labour
@@memeshack9454 bruh
Now let’s see some upgrades on that bass...bridge, tuners and pickups!
Tuners are gonna cost as much as the bass :p
@@OttosTheName no joke
dont mind those elitists, they dont know the meaning of fun on modding cheap basses, they are so spoiled of buying expensive items. modding basses is also like modding a passenger car that could beat a lambo!
I have the same bass, I bought from a friend for very cheap. I’m just getting into bass/guitar playing and I’m going to set it up. It’s very good for beginners!
I bought one a year ago as a beater and I am extremely pleased with it. The pickups duck and they used wood glue to get them in, so I replaced them with active emg pickups and the wood on the body is so soft it keeps having the knobs pull out but for $71 I have to say it's pretty good.
I’ve actually been playing with this bass since July. It’s great for a beginner player, or someone who just wants to fool around. If you’re looking for late Christmas gift this is perfect
*playing bass with a pick*
Davie504: wait thats illegal
chat: wait thats an overused joke
got one of these last year and did a fretless conversion on it. the low signal pickups compliment a mellow sound much nicer. it also came with one of the pickups pre-broken, had to glue it back together
Whoohoo! Finally a cheap bass review. From a bass player to a guitar player: Thank you.
I own one of these. Picked it up used at the nearest Guitar Center for 30 bucks. I can say that the output of the pickups might be specific to just yours. The action was very high on mine- something just under a half inch (!!!) near the 12th fret. I don't have any problems with the feel and the sound is serviceable. As a backup to the backup, s'alright.
My first bass was an Austin Bazaar on Amazon. It’s was dirt cheap and you could shove a sock through the action lol. I’d love to see you find that
Thank u for posting this and I commented this on a live stream and THANK YOU for noticing Love r vids😄🎸
That thing sounds like shit for a 500 dollar guitar, but as a 70 dollar bass it sounds fantastic 👍
Probably an expensive amp.
Cuz its bASS
nick Yeah but do you want an electric bass to sound like a guitar?
i love this series!!!
My first bass was 120 on Amazon, it was cheap, but plays great and looks great, had her almost 5 years now, and still my favorite bass to play
I keep one of the little 3w Orange amps like this on my work bench. I use it really just to make sure things are working while I’m working guitars. It’s actually relatively decent for that.
Thanks for the recommendation
I have four electric basses. One is Ibanez the other Fender the other Squeir and the other this VGS. I inform you that the VGS I bought it for my supplies because it is economical and I don't regret it for the wear and tear. In the end I always play with it. It is my favourite. This bass has been hit many times but has never let me down. Now for Christmas I got him a HIP-SHOT THUMB REST BASS METAL CHROME, a PICKUP COVER CHROME, and a BRIDGE COVER CHROME and it will be very beautiful. I think it's well worth it. Maybe by next year I'll put better magnets on it. SUPER SOUND!!!!
You should do some stuff off of rondo music for the cheap gear series.
I bought a Glarry bass $68 and I'm happy with it
I think this IS the Glarry bass sold under a different name. Look at the pictures on the Glarry site and compare them.
My buddy owns a Glarry! It’s a nice little bass, but I prefer my B.C. Rich 😂
Terrible Gaming...same here! Got the yellow pbass
Honestly, for a $72 Fender Precision Bass copy I was impressed that it sounded really damn good
It sounded like a thin fart
New strings will make most bases sound good....combine that with proper gain staging and even amplitube and you can get an amazing tone.....us musicians r experiencing a golden age of audio....ironically enough popular music has never been as horrible as it has been in the 2000 teens
That bass looks allot like my guitar, i would just want it to stand next to my guitar because i think it would look nice and i want to get a bass to widen my range in music
Once you play bass for a bit it's pretty hard to get back into guitar feels super small and like a toy
I have one of these, and I noticed the low output as well. What would you recommend as far as replacement pickups?
I bought the acoustic-electric version of this (branded Glarry) (dark blue sunburst) and its actually very decent
You should start doing mix demos with these videos
Try out the glarry basses. Just got a glarry jazz and paid 70 bucks. Great starter with some love from a good tech
Nice Olive me intro !! spot on :)
Hi Fluff !
Could you make another video where you play this bass after a set up, checking how it sounds ?
I actually an older Yamaha bass that has a basswood body with a maple neck and rosewood fretboard... yeah it's not one of my American fenders or German warwicks lol but I threw some bassline quarter pound PUs in it and it ain't bad... still kinda fun lol. Awesome punk rock bass lmao
I assume the silver dots on the pickup are the centre of the pickup coils. I also note that, where other guitars have the strings directly over the dots, those are about a dot-and-a-half off centre. Might that have something to do with the weak pickup performance?
Could also be because of the high action and cheap electronics along with hardware
Ive been wonderful youve been Fluff.
It would be great if you could review the Ktaxon Electric Bass Full Size Flame Design Bass Set with 20 Watt Amplifier. I realize that it's not the cheapest Bass at around $120 but it comes with a 20 Watt Amp, Cable, and strap.
I bought a Grarry P Bass off ebay for $92 American, delivered. It came in a Glarry box, inside a Styrofoam liner, inside that padded foamy bag thingy. As far as I can tell, it's straight without any buzz. Haven't had much time to noodle yet, but I'm off today and found my headphone Amp, so...
Ive seriously considering buying this before so many night sof late night shopping
Buddy and I were string bass in band class, my bass broke and I had to use his backup (this) for a simester. It was hell
A set-up of the bass would be more than the bass itself. XD
As a mod project this is absolutely amazing!
I liked it the "All of Me" intro from NOFX at 3:56 😎👍
Oh my god this takes me back to my first bass😅it was the cheapest on amazon and I put car tire weight to help with that headstock drive😂
First video I’ve seen of you. But it feels like I’ve been subbed for 4 years
Price increased by $1.00 since this video posted... Good job, you made their sales quota Fluff!
I would honestly just buy a pre wired pick guard off of maybe a squire or possibly fender if you can find a good deal and slap that in there. Adjust the neck and shim it if you have to, then you’re good to go.
Glarry brand sells guitars at the same price point. The black and white bass is a decent instrument - clanky sound not very warm. Incredible value for money.
Dude!! I dig all of these cheapest guitar , amps, etc vids man 😃😃😃 and dude I'm shocked alot of times as we're you to lolol I hope you can find more cheap shit and TOTALLY JAM the crap out of it 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Fluff went from a 'meh' intro to the best intro on music CZcams
I have this bass. Really like it so far
My first bass... The damn thing blew out on my a year later lol. I have switched to guitar since then ( like 2 years ago) but I'm getting a new in an ex for Christmas.
I just picked one up in surf green and yeah the pickups are weak but not for long! The action was low and the saddles were high. I guess I got lucky🤷🏻♂️
That’s sounds incredible. It’s all in the amp
I just bought a Dean Edge 1 6-string vintage mahogany ($269 everywhere). I hate filming myself, but I may just have to do an unboxing video.
How is the action at the nut? Dropping the action at the nut could fix the overall action without needing a neck shim
Please consider doing a vid of the cheapest 12 inch woofer vs V30.
So for some reason I remember first act trying to fo a kind of custom shop, I might be wrong. I do remember seeing they had a guitar at one time for sale at around $800. Maybe try to find it and do a video about that??
First Act's custom shop made a lot of Matt Pike's guitars
You should do this series with 7 8 9 string guitars and a 5 and 6 string bass
For being so freaking cheapest it's sound amazingly good
Next video: make a song with the cheapest things, guitar bass, effects. Etc.
Great video by the way!
2:29 that shot 😩
Can you PLEeEeEASE fit the last cheapest guitar with some Bare Knuckle Sinner single coils??? Ive been dying for a solid review of them but cant find anything outside of audio recorded from what appears to be an etch-a-sketch while someone tries to solo-djent over Avenge Sevenfold. I know you have had good times with Bare Knuckle in the past and a bridge and neck Sinner are just a poor man's paycheck away so It would do wonders to hear a full clean->dirt->distortion->full fuzz (the clean/fuzz where its at with these lets be honest) demo of what they can do for anyone trying to give life to a not so special guitar. Thanks as always and keep up the sickness with these types of vids! You're giving so much wealth to the musicians who are trying to do their best with what they have (or haven't) got! :)
I bought this one too. A real beauty for the price! I just got in blue though...
I liked to NOFX Olive Me riffage!
Hell, 45 years ago when I got started you’d have loved to buy beginner bass that sounded and looked this good for even twice this price USED!!!
Now Glenn will be seeing a lot of these in his studio
My friend gave me a bass cause he didn't want it. The bass was hella cheap but worked. It never had a brand name on it so I never knew who made it. The bass shown here however looks very familiar with all the same issues. Heavy neck, super light body, output issues, and issues with the cheap pickups getting caught in the body.. Let go of the neck and let the bass rest will just have the bass tip and fall. But seeing as my bass also has a poorly cut neck seam, pickguard not properly cut being too snug at the neck, and an issue with the action where the nut is low but the bridge intonation screws are high up on the saddle, so if you try to lower the action at the bridge the screw will angle down and not allow the strings to drop down far enough for consistent action. Also the coating on the neck is cheap and comes off with normal play. At first I though my hands were just gross but it was the film on the neck. It really did feel like little clumps of dead skin coming off the neck. Clearly this is just coincidence, I guess my search continues.
Love that ETGS shirt, love them Bois.
I wanna learn to p,ay bass really bad. I'm getting one for my birthday nikki sixx inspires me alot (this is my first time watching you so if you dunno who he is he's the bassist for motley crue)
Bassic setup, alright there fluff
I bought the IRIN bass and it was not playable until I did a set up on it LOL
Do a cheapest set up for recording that will be awesome
Next up, cheapest Piano/Keyboard from Amazon/eBay/etc.
Hearing you say "it's a THICC BOI" is the greatest thing ever
After you get the cheap instruments could you mod them to make them better
I think I will stick to Fender Jazz! LOL
Cheers Dude!
Don't see myself selling my schecter anytime soon for one of these either lol
What song is the intro? I have never watched you before.
Definitely would put a different pickup in that.
Next video is you actually going to GC and getting it fixed up!
Well if a half decent bass is 71 dollars, I can get pissed because a bad bass is something like 400 reais ( brazillian money)
It doesnt sound that bad to be honest, a really good tone for punk stuff
In my opinion that Bass doesn't have a low output pickup but cheap Bass string that they install they were made from cheap components and it make pickup hard to absorb sound.
Yall Inc. runs the domains for glarrymusic.com and yoshioe, and other websites and eBay storefront. Yoshioe basses should be the exact same bass as Glarry and the other basses sold on eBay stores like "city-green" and "worldokit"
You should do some cheap instruments from glarry.com. im looking to get a burning fire guitar cause its like 60 dollars and has a tremelo (ive never had a guitar with a tremelo and i really want one lol) but they have super cheap instruments on there
