yes very nice point. I play mostly with fingers. On guitar i am using 1.60mm, but on bass 0.71 and now i tried 0.60 , which Nolly using and on bass this thickness or 0.71 seems to be the best. Very amazing sound punchy very nice tone. I am starting to love playing with pick more and more.

@jordythebassist 3 года назад

I've always used around 1mm, I reckon it will probably help give a bit more relief and help endurance too

@cd0u50c9 Год назад

I depends on the style of music. For fast picking that matches the speed of guitars and bass drum kicks in black and death metal a pick thinner than 0.9mm becomes quite hard to control and it does take its toll on your wrist/arm.

@Ulfwastaken 4 года назад

All I'm taking away from this is play hard and ignore the fiddly guitarist softness, which I kind of already knew but thanks for making me more confident about it, and dig in. The thing about using a thin pick is that it won't work as a compressor if you're playing this hard. Any material requires more force to be bent over a larger angle in torsion over a short repetitive period. By playing harder with a thin pick you're just going to need more momentum to get the same attack. A slightly thicker pick like a 1.0mm or 1.5mm will add some wrist strain, but the muscles will toughen up after a couple of months, and then you have more control rather than relying on a pick which is getting closer and closer to breaking point. Even a 0.75mm will break after a couple of days when I play with one, whereas the thicker picks get worn edges which do a better job of keeping your playing consistent as they reduce the sharpness of the area the string has to travel over. Tl,Dr; thick picks wear in to having a nice thin edge, muscles toughen, more control and reward when playing hard

@c.a.t.732 4 года назад

Leo Fender designed an instrument called the electric bass GUITAR largely so six-string players could double on a bass-range instrument, and many of the early bass guitarists played with a pick. I've always thought the saying "bassist who play with a pick are just frustrated guitarists" was ridiculous... they ARE playing a guitar!

@jacktraveller8290 4 года назад

It's so nice to hear a metal bassist talk about the desire for consistency and precision. So many bassists (who are great musicians, and excellent at what they do, don't get me wrong) are very focused on naturalism in their playing. They want their lines to sound like they've been played by a human, with a wide dynamic range. Which is fine, for their styles of music, but not suited to certain styles of metal. As a death metal bassist, I am, as Nolly says, basically trying to get the opposite of that - part of the style's appeal is superhumanly tight playing, & you really do want your basslines to be as close to MIDI as possible.

@wea69420 4 года назад

I think a lot of people think they can somehow "escape" humanity if they actually try to be consistent even though, no matter what, there's a bit of error when a human being plays something. As I see it, real control over your dynamic range means being able to play both dinamically and consistently at will.

I started bass playing Tool so at first i learned with a pick but after 11 years i prefer finger picking for metal as it allows for more options and also allows for easier tapping. Tho to acheive a certain sound a pick is good i guess. Im practicing a lot on my accoustic so i can acheive a similar sound with finger picking as accoustic will forge your strength and endurance so back on an electric bass you can sound ultra aggressive with your finger withou tiering to much also practicing tapping on an accoustic is really good to make aggressive tapping too.

@Hevvvyyy 4 года назад

Tool is great, the intro to sober sounds awesome

@Tangalang22 4 года назад

Nothing against fingers or anything, but how do fingers lend to more options. With picking you get palm mutes and left handed muting. Plus, there are so many pick guys that will tap, slap, open hand pluck, and finger pluck for certain sections of a song. They'll usually hold the pick in their picking hand or their mouth and do whatever they need to do for a section and then switch back to pick for their main tone (not always necessary for tapping). Good examples of this are abandoned by unprocessed and make total destroy by periphery

Also IMO if it is too constant it can fatigue the listener's ears, but it depends on the exact bass tone. I can only listen to Nolly play for a couple songs before I'm done but I can listen to Lemmy all day. Some of Nolly's tones are goddamn amazing though. I say don't do anything all the time.

A fender heavy pick has the durability to last a while for me. I can't go thinner otherwise the pick just snaps apart after a day or so and usually leads to something painful before I can realize what's happening.

That's why I use the Dunlop nylon picks. I've always used the thicker 1mm, but have been using the .6mm lately after seeing this video. They flex like crazy and never break. You can use one pick for months or even years. Notice he talks about the wear pattern on the pick. Another major plus to the Dunlop picks is the raised lettering, which gives you excellent grip, even when you're sweating heavily. It's like grip tape on a skateboard, or wax on a surfboard. Makes a huge difference.
