[duncanmoss2]

[ThePhantomSafetyPin]

Holy Hell that's epic. ^^

[MrLexington45]

I GOTTA GET ONE OF THESE!!!! Do you play like a single reed instrument (i play sax)

[yshabash]

althrough I do like regular bassoons I still think that is awesome skill rite there, and also I would rather pick a contrabassoon than an oboe because even though they're both not my fav and oboe sounds like a bee with a mike that had 100 pounds of sugar and alcahol injected into it all at once.

[elliotjharder]

What is your setup for this?

ie miketype, attatchment, position, and electronics used

[jazzobassoon]

@elliotjharder forrest mic

[judasthelion]

You sir, are a king. An absolute king.

Dirty funk like cuts to the core of any man.

[iWpanz]

@jazzobassoon i dunno i live in sydney so.... hmm... i didnt think that through........

[kookiemonster42]

can you have an amp on a regular bassoon?? if so, how do you do it??? 

[jazzobassoon]

@kookiemonster42  YES we can use amp on bassoon , just a mic on theee crook. try it

[kookiemonster42]

@jazzobassoon oh that's cool. can you tell me how?? like, can you use any old amp? and how do i get it to work on the bassoon? i have a bass guitar amp. will that work?

[corydora2012]

Very good! I really enjoyed this.

[CMalburn]

This sort of thing should be done more- ao far, only the guitar, bass and keyboard have become mainstream as naturally amplified instruments. We should keep experimenting!

[2Kortoso]

That's all kinds of funky.

[hopperninja]

mais, c'est genial!!!

[hopperninja]

mais, c'est genial!!!

[hopperninja]

You are the living definition of badass. Today you have made a new fan.

[BeardedIrony]

lol i've got the same amp. and dude you got crazy styles

[benandreyna]

This is a terrific demonstration of contrabassooon used with an amp. I play bass parts on contra with my band, and use a bocal pickup, barkus berry piezo sax pickup, and/or an endpin pickup. Marvelous demo, BRAVO!!!

[whowhobrick]

I play cello (6 yrs) and ive fallen in love with the bassoon and contrabassoon. lol im sorry but the last ten seconds sound like poop falling into a toilet

[ifnspifn]

Your neighbors must despise you :)

That was absolutely splendid. Cheers!

[ryanyunck]

[Qazic12]

Wow man! This is awesome, it's the first video I've seen of a contrabass wind instument that doesn't just sound like flatulence.

[mikebagel27]

@Qazic12

HAHAHAHA

[olymania]

[Metalheadpanda]

you are my hero

[APT152]

THAT. IS. SO. COOL.

I'm such a loser i never knew that kind of thing even existed...

[yautjathehunter]

so that's what happens when you leave a contrabass sax and bassoon alone together. Awesome! ^^

[meatpupet]

Hell ya! electric bassoon = titts

[clarikid]

That seriously is one of the coolest things I heard. How much did the Instrument cost?

[Ichliebegermany]

my bassoon is 800 USD. But some can up for like 25000USD. This shit aint cheap.

[WOOHOO322]

whoa do you mean 8000 dollars?

if not, where did you find an 800 dollar contra?

[EvilCupKakezWTF]

=O whoa... Awesome...

[jrbrook76]

[KK437]

Interesting..

[PSPGENIUS714]

Oh shit cool..

[SeeYaBassoon]

THIS IS AMAZING! I love the effects with the Amp. I wonder how they made a contra to hook up to an amp like that...

I am on bassoon grade 6, and I took up the third movement of the Hummel concerto as a hobby piece as I got the book for Christmas. I was wondering, if you have ever played the third movement of this, please private message me if you have any tips. It would be much appreciated :)

Thank you...and congrats to the guy with the contra in this vid :)

LucyXX

[honorum646]

Hey man, I have to ask, can you tell me the exact model and price you got it for... and if that is just a normal bass guitar amp.
