Jaymie Murray Bass song, Slap/fingers

[eaterofcandy]

Could you possibly make a video of just the bass? It's got great tone and I found a nice deal online but I can't get my hands on one at a music store.

Great playing also! You've got a great musical sense of timing!

[jaymie77]

Thanks!!

I don't have this bass anymore sorry.

Not bad for the money but not as punchy as the ash TRB's

[eaterofcandy]

Just a couple questions (because I am seriously considering this and I don't want to travel to a big city to try out a bass I won't want =P )

1. You said you would never use this bass onstage. Is there a reason why?

2. Would you compare the neck to more of a J-bass or a P-bass?

3. What are the controls on the bass? I'm guessing the three small ones are bass. mid, and treble.

[jaymie77]

A: I use 5 string basses and I didnt think it had a great sound, was a little tinny.

A: I say more like a jazz, the neck had a pretty good feel.

I think from memory it was a 35 scale length too, it was little unnecessary for a 4 string bass.

A: Yea master Volume, Pan-Pot, 3-Band-EQ.

[HrapovikPlush]

Hey, awesome playing.

I am actually thinking about buying this bass. My question is, What is the nut width? Could you measure it for me? Also, is it comfortable resting your thumb on those pickups?

[jaybird385]

??? you're one baddass mofo anyway!!!

[jaymie77]

Thanks!!

I only kept this bass for about 6 months, I think they are onky for the money but I'd never use it on stage.

[jaybird385]

is that a korean or japanese trb?

[jaymie77]

yea, not that good!

[Gmonkey500]

[choncho101]

[echidna108]

Beautiful,, A living, breathing groove that just keeps kicking! The cymbals are little loud in the recording, but the bass playing is very PHAT!

ur amazing at bass

[jaymie77]

[kab00murfac3]

wht do u think is a good starting bass for a beginer?

[jaymie77]

I started with 3 Ibanez soundgear basses, a 4, a 5 and a fretles. I would say for the money they are pretty good although I hated thier 5 strnig.

[jaymie77]

Cort make some new basses that are now pretty good too, I have an Cort RB5 that I use for gigs I have to fly to and I like playing it.

[jaymie77]

Also anything by Yamaha!

jaymie

[elykoko]

Hye mate.

Have a go at working it out, if you use Tabs all the time then you will get your ears working.

Jaymie

[jaymie77]

Yea mate, have been for about 3 years.

Still a lot of work to do on my playing though, never ending!

Are you playing in a band or anything?

[jaymie77]

Hahahaha, thanks man!!

By the way I'd love to see that seizure thing happen, could turn out ok :D

[zodiakironfist]

Dude...you are my twin. Not in appearance, but in style and skill (when I'm not playing covers). Very, very nice!!! 5/5 faved and all of that jazz. Took me 22 years....lemme guess....took you far less.

[gianluk1986]

great style..

[jaymie77]

Bass jam 2, you can see it at my channel.

[Dawkinz]

nice playing man! loving the slap.

the Trb's are amazing, i cant fault it!

[jaymie77]

Thanks budd,

Did you see the new vid with the same bass?

Jay

[bass4beto]

well done, nice playing Jay

[maogall]

Real fun groove man, real awesome.

[demoniciceberg]

Nice bass work...Melodies, feeling and groove! That´s the spirit of playing nice music! Congratulations! You are surelly an excelent musician!

[evanisredhot]

what do i think... i love the yamaha that series of basses and pickups/electronics are vastly underated. bad drum mixing my god. hit crashes like you would a child. hard enough for effect but soft enough not to leave a mark.

[jaymie77]

Cool, thanks for the comment, just understand that this is a trial song to be recorded at some time with a real band, also it was recorded on a small still camera so some frequencies come out more than others.

[bassbobo5]

Nice work, Jaymie!!

Bo

[duckoes]

Hey Jaymie. Cool tune mate. Fantastic playing.

I really like the 1/4 note triplet modulation.

Slick.

Michael Duckworth

[resonantdoghouse]

Hey Jaymie, Thanks for the comment, I really like what you are doing to. The metric modulation in this song is very cool, it fits perfect and is very smooth. Solid playing and great composition. Cheers, Jim.

[bassbobo5]

Nice work Jaymie.

[bungharry]

Great job Jaymie, I am looking foward to jamming and working with you soon.

[TerenceSharp]

Wow, nice, i love your style :). Spot on right the way through :D

When i play, i tend to not move around the neck enough >.<, guess its just practice,

Keep it up ;D

[jamesnotjim]

Good work, man. Lots to admire here, from the melodic intro figure to the mix mix of finger-style funk, slap, and chords at the end. Great timing and tone all the way through.
