I worked local security for concerts here and we worked Stanley Clark around 1982, was mesmerized by his playing, his illuminated fret markers, showmanship and totally blown away by the 30" woofers on stage we stood in front of at the end of the show for crowd control! Always admired him for his technique and for sticking to 4 strings!

@adam872 8 лет назад

I've always loved those Alembics Stanley plays. Some of the best basses I've ever heard.

RETURN TO FOREVER! STANLEY CLARK *LEGEND*. BACK IN THE DAY- HELPED ME GET THRU COLLEGE. TRYING TO MAKE THOSE GRADES! SALUTE! ( EARLY - MID 70'S)

@ManneckeyKhoeAob 9 лет назад

I was privileged to see Stanley Clarke and George Duke live in Johannesburg, Joy of Jazz.

@alskndlaskndal 9 лет назад

Total legend and so down to earth and cool! Loved seeing his rig setup.

@williewilliams6714 5 лет назад

You can't start naming Great Bass Players without Stanley Clark being on the 1st Team.....

@Jeff-o-Lee 2 года назад

The pickups on the spalted top are closer together going towards the bridge compared to the cherry bass. The old Alembics, you could adjust pickup position because they were one rods to do so. Very rare. I think Jack Cassidy had one back in the early '70s.

@sallen6949 10 лет назад

The legend! And it was great to see Stanley Clarke too! Haha!

@coleemmersonhallman5329 7 лет назад

Every time I go to watch a rundown of an artist I care about, I hear "hi I'm Rebecca Dirks here with premier guitar" and I'm like yeeeeees

@coleemmersonhallman5329 7 лет назад

With the exception of DFA 1979, but that guy is cool too.

@linkedup7346 10 месяцев назад

Insane having such gear. I can't imagine having so much recognition as a bass player. I am a bass player and have been for many years, but to have taken this profession to the level of Stanley Clarke is mind blowing......

@ressuvhio 12 лет назад

I like that he is not only an awesome bass player, but also a very modest guy. :D

@stevemontgomery30 10 лет назад

Fantastic Gear for one of the greatest Bassists and innovators of his genre I've ever had the great fortune of seeing/hearing play in my 1st 50 yrs

Very interesting rig, what a legend, the first solo bass player i discovered on vinyl when i was a teenager! (Cank St Records) for those that remember it.

@The_sinner_Jim_Whitney 4 года назад

I saw three shows on the RTF tour he was talking about, absolutely incredible performances. I hope that iteration tours again one day.

@Nostaljack 7 лет назад

Always nice when looking at a Rig Rundown featuring a legend to see gross Rebecca Dirks comments made by little boys who've likely never even been on a date. I feel utterly refreshed.

@mookie2637 9 лет назад

Stanley's octave pedal (the one in his pedal board) is not an EBS, as he says. It's an MXR with a sticker over the logo....

@craigmoran893 5 лет назад

@@AlienSexGod It just doesn't track as well as the MXR Bass Octave Deluxe.

@Traumm9 5 лет назад

@schylperry3230 11 лет назад

@michaelwertzy9808 5 лет назад

Cannot love Stanley enough! He's one of those go-to musicians that always comes up with his particular sound for what's needed and a lot more! Plus I've become quite a "Dirks Head", she knows her stuff, a terrific interviewer, not a sycofant that "schmoozes" like a late-night talkshow host!

@nobzey 11 лет назад

You're absolutely correct! That being said if you re-watch it again you realize he must normally use an EBS so out of habit he says that. I only came to this conclusion when he says this box is good but not as good as the EBS. Maybe his tech was trying the MXR out for a few shows?

The SMV tour with Marcus and Victor was incredible. But the RTF lineup is on my list !

@ernieflanaganstingraybassm1463 7 лет назад

Stanley you are the reason i play bass and i totally agree with you that EBS pedals are the best and most reliable pedals that you can take on the road and never have to worry and i did the math on your EBS pedals and your looking at around a grand or so to get em and well worth the money MR. Clarke....

@Phillyfast 9 лет назад

Stanley is the man!! And GO EAGLES!

@milton112 9 лет назад

Stanley was the closing act of the DJF 2014. He was never able to take the stage, as severe weather was rolling in. A large chant went up through the crowd, but went nowhere. A monumental missed opportunity. I did see his interview in the talk tent though.

@Nacho66 11 лет назад

I had a '76 Alembic Custom w/the 5-pin jack and preamp. The best sound - EVAH... You plugged in this floor box to 120 volt AC and then plugged the 5-pin cable from the bass to the box and a 1/4" to the amp. Simple. It powered the pups, LED fret markers, etc. I remember having problems adjusting the intonation because I was used to Fenders and the Alembic was so accurate. The only down sound was that the damn thing musta weighed 15 lbs. This one had a bigger body (same shape) than Stanleys

@stephanebeauchamp-kiss3181 7 лет назад

Does anyone know what the wraparound thing is on the upright bass? Is that a pickup???

@jomarthegreat1 13 лет назад

"any other tricks or secrets to your rig?" "just fingers. just fingers and technique" if only people realized that a little more. it's not what you play or what's in your rig... it's how well you play. skill > gear 10 times out of 10.

@marklowe7431 4 года назад

Agree, but gear still plays a vital part.

@sbagwell98 4 года назад

Let me play your Bass. 3 things required - knowledge/skill - equipment - style/dna Yes knowledge and experience are extremely crucial, practice, practice, study, practice. Yet quality instruments are also just as important, any great studio will have a variety of good instruments on hand, ie.. Gibson, Fender, Taylor etc. Most all successful musicians upgrade their equipment when able to unless it effects stage presence or sound (Willie Nelson & Trigger) DNA- How I sound on Bass guitar; plucking, strumming, fingering, bowing, will always sound different, whether it's DNA, finger strength - size - length - width, So much comes into play that even with the exact equipment set identically to another musician will still sound different. Good Equipment usually will make a "good" player sound great. Computers and Studio engineers are another whole different subject.

@SrChalice 3 года назад

Yep the gear is there to amplify you, that's it really. Ain't gonna save you if you didn't practice or have skill.

@lambert1702 11 лет назад

SVT2PRO -ALL TUBE- for upright acoustic bass!!!! I couldn't count the no. of times I've been told NOT to use all tube for upright bass. I love it & have done it for years, but SO many tell me- Nah gotta have a transparent solid state etc.. amp! I'll do as Stan does!! :-)

@jomarthegreat1 13 лет назад

@nejikid Yeah, it does help, also very true... good craftsmanship plays a part, but it trumps brand name as well. like some people think that if they're seen playing an Epiphone T-Bird as opposed to a Gibson T-Bird that their rep is going to go down... meanwhile they're pretty much the same instrument, except that one is at least $1300 street.

@shaneweldon 11 лет назад

Ya, it sounds like he says AEGC alright, although I think he meant to say ADGC. He probably just mad a mistake saying it as he was saying EADG directly after.

@33markiss 3 года назад

Man I listen to that like 20 times in disbelief that he was using they tuning!!!! Glad I searched the comments and found yours . I thought I was going crazy trying to figure out how he played like that ! Lol And oddly almost nobody but us seems to have caught that !?! -Thx for helping me regain my sanity! I was like he’s playing half Cello and half bass ! Lol

@mattlittlej 12 лет назад

I got to meet him after he did a show with Hiromi in St. Louis last year. Stanley is a monster of a bassist and a very humble, laid back guy.

I could have bought an Alembic Spoiler for $800 at a local MGR with a cracked headstock that sounded like butta.. It will be the bar I rate all other basses against.. That said a $100 Ibanez SR300 is my current bass..

@TheCollisionofworlds Yeah man, I agree. I probably should have said that "it's not ALWAYS about what you play or what's in your rig"... still, I stand by my statement about how well you play. But of course, nobody wants to play through a shitty amp or have cables/pedals/etc that constantly crap out or kill your tone.

he plays a tenor scaled bass and a bass scaled bass... a bass clef is different than a treble clef and thus a tenor clef is too... a tenor bass would be tuned ADGC... also the neck length is different than a normal bass... ect.
