  • Gittler Bass Demo. 4 string, 5 string and Fretless. Because of the success of my previous Gittler Video's I was invited by Gittler Instruments to come to the NAMM show and show off the guitars. I had a great time and the new basses are amazing. I took a week off from work to do this and it was a total blast. Check out the basses. They have a super solid feel and sound great.
    To be clear, I'm not a paid endorser for Gittler, I'm just a HUGE fan of high tech guitars.
    Here is a quick demo of the new Gittler Guitar. I have had it for a couple of days and its one of the coolest guitars I have ever played.
    Check out this other Gittler Guitar Demo video I did with my brother: • Gittler Guitar Review ...
    And for the dedicated that want to see all the cool details like how to Change a String, how to use the OTB Box, Gittler Guard and some more guitar playing watch this :34 minute version: • The Ultimate Gittler G...

    You're playing with the Midi cable plugged in, and not the 1/4", so what we're hearing is just a synthesizer. What does the bass actually sound like?

    • @smorrow
      @smorrow Před 4 lety +7

      Does the instrument itself actually output MIDI or does it just output polyphonically to a box that then converts to MIDI? If the latter then we might be hearing the real instrument.

    I kind of think it's cool, but the $8750 price tag [cough cough!] is hard to get past. I can buy a lot of bass gear for that much money including a car to haul it in. Plus... I'd love to hear how it sounds being played with other musicians instead of somebody going through their catalog of licks. How does this bass compare and compete with drums, guitars, keys, etc. for sonic territory in the mix? I can't really hear much from this recording and all the demos I've seen and heard, so far, have all been recorded on smart phones. So it's hard to tell what you're getting for $8750. I hope this makes sense.

    • @Nikosi9

    • @rigid.designator

      Well, actually titanium vibrates way better then wood (natural polymer). Polymers are known for their good dampening abilities, while resonance travels better in metals.

      Brent Breault aluminum has different resonance than titanium. I bet a titanium violin would sound heavenly.

    • @MrGallade475
      @MrGallade475 Před 9 měsíci

      ​​​@@brentbreault7606because it's what you think a violin sounds like. A metal violin is likely louder but depending on the way one could be made, the actual acoustic sound of it could be unpleasant if certain frequencies that our ears don't like are more resonant.
      The guys argument was that the metal bass would vibrate more, which it likely does. More vibration doesn't mean it will sound better because of that.

    I'm still trying to figure out how $20 worth of tubing and two hours with a tig welder adds up to a $9,000 instrument. I guarantee there's a jig that holds everything in exactly the right spot for perfect, repeatable assembly. One guy could probably crank out twenty of these in a day without breaking a sweat. Frankly, even $900 seems excessive for what you get.

      @poisonedlife Před 4 lety

      It has the same system as any other headless bass/guitar like Steinberger/Strandberg... Most headless basses and guitars use double ball strings, one attached to the neck and the other on the tuners, they were very popular in the 80s but now they have resurfaced. You tune it on the back of the bass/guitar, some people say it tunes very accurately and doesn't detune...

    Seems like the most remarkable, "revolutionary" thing about it is what it looks like. It's still a bass and still plays & sounds like one. Other than that it's no better, or even different, than any other bass guitar of any make, model or price. Just its looks.

    Sounds like someone decided that resonance was far too musical and the actual ringing of notes was not required. They prioritized fret ringing and adding shit to make it even playable. "All you need is this accessory that hangs on your belt, no biggie, and when you have that you can get this amaaaazing sound. (garbage can lids crashing together)
