SteveK Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Very nicely played - Exceptionally clean - Hardly a rattle or buzz to be heard. Good on 'im. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolleydick Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Ok nice, but why play it on a bass if you want the whole thing to be in the guitar range of pitch (you know what I mean) Anyway - oh wise ones, what is the bass he is playing?

thisnameistaken Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 People who take the E string off their basses to fit a C higher up should be given guitars. Especially when they start tapping. A slap and a guitar, that's what he needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does one need any other reason to play any tune on any particular instrument?

I think what he’s done with it is good though, I couldn’t do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bilbo Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Kudos to the guy- he's got his own concept and it sounds integrated and complete - not a shredfest but a musicial voice. Not something I want to explore as a player but his work is very clean and professional and he should be applauded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
