  1. Xvive A58 system, then "Bach on bass" book and "concept for bass soloing" réédition book. I will be able to jump all over the place on stage, but still work on my musical improvement in parallel.
  2. VVT. And those stock from my Sire U5 are really efficient.
  3. That should be a Sire thing. Exact same feeling with my U5. Became my #1. Period.
  4. Good evening, Next one is the theme from Avishai Cohen "Continuo"; awesome piece to work on chords positions, 5/4 bars mixed with 4/4 ones ; and some tricky fingering to find for smooth result. Notice that Avishai plays it on a 5 strings bass with treble C. So i've lowered second part from one octave to be able to play it on 4 strings bass.

  5. Good afternoon, About this next one, i'm working on it since more than two years. I've started by the first video below version, which ignited this work. Then after listening a zillion version, decided to transcribe also one octave under the first one. Each version has her proper interest: the "treble" side contains challenging fingering on the top of the neck. And the "lower" side is a good exercise to work on non-fretted notes; imposing to work and find hand positions for mutting between fretted note and non-fretted notes. And this awesome other one: It's really a pleasure to work, as a musical meditation.

  6. Good evening, I would like to share with you all some bass transcriptions; my main work to grow and improve on my musical path. I focus more on melodies, themes, solos, than bass parts. No plan: i work on pieces (or parts of pieces) than touch me and makes me vibrate. I transcribe for 4 strings bass: there will be some compromise on certains notes. (no low D 😁) Let's start with Jean -Philippe RAMEAU : La danse du grand calumet de la paix My transciption is based on several versions. This one is just an example, a nice version. It's downloadable in pdf, or Musescore format. You can also play it freely directly on Musescore website.

  7. Too bad there's no shorty in new models.
  8. Last year i' have completely re-build my right hand technique after seeing some vids from Anthony Jackson. I was needing something to easily switch from chords to single notes and feeling it the more natural possible. And then i also discovered how he used the pick. It was a revelation. It took me several months, little by little to change habits and feeling good with this new way: i play now with thumb, index and middle finger, without a real anchor: just my hand palm touching strings when i need to mute. A mix between Anthony Jackson and Mark Knopfler. And it works really well; in alternance with more conventional two fingers techniques with floating thumb anchoring on strings, and pick. It opens a lots of possibilities, as the sound is not the same when you play with the thumb or with the classic two fingers technic. And when you got the habit to not really anchor your hand, you can easily move the hand to change tone on the fly following what call the tune. All i can say is when you have few months of practice; you don't ask yourself what technic to use: it comes naturally with what tone you to achieve at this moment. Like muscle memory. And this 3 fingers "guitar" technic is really cool for playing chords in the middle of your bass line. You can also look at Hardien Feraud technic. It's kind of mixing all of that except the pick, inspired from Matt Garrisson & Anthony Jackson. This change has carried a lot of possibilities to work on dynamics and be able to change tone only with right hand.
  9. You'll have a happy friday: that was fantastic !
  10. Hiromi' sonic Wonder. Starting in 40 minuts 😎
  11. As we spek about facebook, if you all didn't yet read this book, i highly suggest it: Not only about facebook but all social media working the same to stick you behind your screen the most possible. This book should be explained in schools...
  12. 1. Xvive A58 wireless system (will certainly arrive) 2. Ibanez EHB 1000S (not produced anymore, and not in my budget right now for those which are still on the market. I'll have to be patient and snipe some used one.) 3. Well.. nothing more.
  13. By the past i've felt in a kind of addiction to facebook: hours to scroll things i wasn't interested by. And i had a lot more suggested things than things from what i was really interested and posts from my real friends. So i quit it and erased completely my profile. Problem is my favorites artists are using it to communicate about news, new music, tours etc.. so i created one new profile and found a way to manage it: i don't go in the news feed anymore but only in my search history. By this way, i only see news from pages i've searched and already looked. A kind of favorites list without any dumb suggestion or sponsorised things around.
