[Diabeto1000]

I Have had one now for 1 Year. and every time i put it back ints case i say WOW .......

[krustwell]

only $210 to buy the loops! #Bargain #Not

Love Tony Franklin, though.

[makeshift26]

His bassline at the end of Blue Murder's "Jelly Roll" is my favorite of all time. Super melodic and very emotional- take a listen sometime!!

[jmmcdon25]

Tony, please thank your Mom for me! :D

[alembicbassguy]

Tony's sound is very much akin to the early Brand X Percy Jones material!

[richieryan45]

He's rocking it with Kenny Wayne Shepherd these days. Awesome!

[Dengia64]

I find Him Divine. Great!

[realmof79]

Tony Franklin is one of the best bass players ever! Check out the first BLUE MURDER album or the MOLLO/MARTIN CD 'The Cage2' - mega-bass playing!

[afaxa94]

Haaaa que delicia escuchar esto!

[lreeddesign]

just got one.whew!

[syndrome666]

Anyone know how to do power chords on a fretless? I can't seem to master that one technique since the two higher string fingers have to align at the same position which seems to be near impossible to do traditionally with 3 fingers, or am I just too spoiled with frets? Its the only thing I find to be at least "my" limitation/weakness on a fretless. As far as everything else goes, I love the fretless P with that vintage beefy P neck, it's a total tone monster!

[BachTeen1]

3 men has speakers with frequency range 2000-20000 hz!

[vladystrider]

i mean 6:37

[vladystrider]

how does he transpose those harmonics as showed at 6:47 ?

[stuntwillmusic]

[GORFF987]

[Johagorn]

You man rock!!! I like the way you sing with your bass, the things you say show also the way for how to listen... I hope you are high as I am right now. Peace from Chile!!!

[widepass]

Sorry but this shit is LAME!

[rickrudd]

@widepass YOU are fucking lame. You have contributed exactly nothing in the way of your own music videos. Stick to world of warcraft in your mom's basement. Tony Franklin's navel lent is cooler than you can ever hope to be.

[widepass]

@rickrudd

If i am so lame i probably would not be playing with drummers like Dennis Chambers, Gary Husband and Peter Erskine would i?

What drummers do you play with?

I commented on Tony Franklins playing not YOURS!

[rickrudd]

@widepass Karen Carpenter. 

[CLASSclown011]

@widepass youre not a bassist you dont understand so get the @#$% ou of here you bastard.

[NielsUHP10]

Fretless bass>Bass with frets!

[minx163]

You guys Make me laugh my ass off. I really whish they had the ignorant peoples hall of fame. Cause you guys would be the top contenders. You people are so into your hate music that has absolutly no color in it whats so ever. Just bland crap . Tony Franklin has played with the best talent around not to mention that bass was made with his name on it

Hence the Name the Tony Franklin frettles Base. It's easy to identify some one who blow balls, when you are an expert at it yourself. "PUTZ"

[firebird0u812]

This guy blows balls, HARD!!!!!

[RaguelAngelofBalance]

@firebird0u812 Where are your music videos? Oh, you're a conspiracy nut.

[MrBtkyle]

I feel totally inspired. i get his freedom of play........Beautiful Bass.i will have mine anyday.

[HowlinMadBeri]

he's god.

[emosdieslow]

I shall have that bass. Awesome playing, too.

[tylereallysorry]

this guy is a tool and the video editor made even more prevalent.

[jazzybassmasterboy]

Tony Franklin: Master of the pentatonic scale. He really knows how to jam on that minor pentatonic scale.

[bigtoine45]

This bass sounds just like the Steve Bailey 6 string. You can hear the ebony fretboard a mile away.

[187alacran]

jam

[rickota20]

he plays as much as he talks

[dariocasatibassista]

music, as sports, have good or badly palyers,so, in this case, i think he is not at good player.

Wherether i like too much your 3Dmax models and animations, very very cool architecture!!

nice work!

[dariocasatibassista]

nice bass but not good player, nobody as Pastorius or Adrien Feraud at fretless bass

[psychoanarchic]

@dariocasatibassista

...I respect your point of view, but i think music (and art in general) is not like sports...you can't tell "A" is better than "B"...we are talkin about pro level...

I wish i could play like tony franklin (and with guys like page, coverdale, sykes) and having comments like i'm not good player.... 8-)

[20AceofBass11]

@SquierClassicVibe35 T.F. has impeccable intonation. Most of us dream to play as clean as he does.

[sirduckfuck]

[cyberprimate]

[Sonysoftwareofficial]

DR Strings Sunbeams Medium 4-String Bass Strings

[BearAssassin]

@Sonysoftwareofficial Any possibility of using flatwounds and getting a similar sound?

[Kkrouton]

@Sonysoftwareofficial Is that a Hipshot D-tuner on his bass?

[Schimmoller]

Tony Franklin is a bad ass, thank you T.F

[Sonysoftwareofficial]
