Nice playing and GREAT tone, but I guess years of conditioning have programmed me... it just looks weird to see it coming from an instrument about the size and shape as a Fender Telecaster. Visually, it's almost like when bass is played by a keyboard, it just doesn't look like the instrument to make that sound, you know?
I guess I'll get over it though.
Again, nice playing and great tone. Looking forward to more.
your playing sounds great here. What wood is the top of your Mouse? Also, is your fingerboard ebony? Its' hard to tell in the video. I have Koa with the goncalo alves lined fretless neck.
Gah! Beautiful tone :-)

Hi, does anyone know if this "upright sound" would be achievable with some other acoustic bass using similar LaBella strings ?
And if the 30" scale is a factor here or not.

It has a very as i would describe, 'rubber band' bassy sound, great for this type of fingerstyle i think =)

Great playing! I've been on the line about ordering a Mouse but you've just convinced me! Just placed my order with Rob!

I am too the proud owner of a Rob Allen Mouse, What amplifier are you using? I use a 600watt Acoustic Image with an extension speaker
bassplayer1960 4 years ago
Normally I use Aguilar amplification. In this video I used a Roland Cube 100.
