Greetings from Da Nang! 20 years on bass, now sharing technical covers, gear comparisons & tutorials

[IgorBassplayer]

Hi everyone!

I’ve been a professional session bassist for over 20 years and recently moved to Da Nang, Vietnam. I’ve started a YouTube channel to share not just covers, but also high-quality educational resources and gear analysis.

I’m a bit of a gear enthusiast, and I love testing how different woods and electronics behave. My current main rotation:

• Custom Made Music Man 5 HH: Features a Solid Rosewood Neck for incredible sustain and clarity.

• Fender American Elite Jazz Bass: My go-to for that classic punchy growl.

• Mavis Jazz Bass: A rare find that sounds surprisingly punchy.

Signal Chain: Kemper Player (Avalon U5 profile) directly into an M-Audio Fast Track II.

What I’m sharing on my channel:

• 🎸 Gear Comparisons: I have a dedicated A/B test video comparing my Fender Elite and the Custom Music Man so you can hear the difference in real-time.

• 🎼 Advanced Tutorials: I’ve created detailed lessons with synchronized notation and TABS for complex grooves, including my breakdown of Anton Davidyants & Gergo Borlai slap exercises.

Here are a few links to my work:

I’d love to hear your thoughts on the tone, the lessons, and the transcriptions!

Cheers,

Igor
