    HK 7 string bass??

    in Bass Guitars

    Posted

    [color=#000000][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]
    Hi Guys,

    I'm normally a 5-string player, but recently a friend of mine has lent me this 'HK' 7-string bass to play with (he's actually selling it!) i don't know too much about 7-string basses.. This one has Kent Armstrong pickups installed in it, and to be honest the tone is quite versatile! and fairly growly on the lower strings.. can anyone tell me more information on it, if they have heard of this brand of bass before? although i'm pretty sure they are budget versions of 7-string basses as the price for sale is £450..

    Here is a clip i recorded today of me noodling/finding my way around it!

    Do you think i should buy it???

    Thanks,

    Bill :-)[/font][/color]

    Hi Guys, i'm normally a 5-string player, but a friend of mine has lent me his 7-string bass (which he's selling) for me to play with, so i thought i would record a few clips of me noodling and trying to find my way around it! :-)

    Hi! :)

    Thanks for the compliments and 'welcoming' guys, I'll try to post here as much as I can when I have some time!

    @james - that's great man, hope the audition goes well! The Mark Ronson thing was kind of a one-off session, but was pretty cool! And is going to look nice on the CV :) but recently have been doing some recording with Alex Hutchings on his original stuff and some backing tracks for Roland, so enjoying that at the moment!

    We should definitely hook up when you're back around this end and have a coffee/catchup and a jam for sure :)

    Cheers
    Bill.

    Very nice and relaxing (except for the strange noise a 1.25), great playing and lots of feeling.

    @skidder

    Cheers man, but it's all improvised so I'd have to listen and watch it back and work it out myself before tabbing it out for you, just use your ears and you will pick it up! :) it's mostly in the key of Bb minor!
