thank you master :)

It's amazing how how much the Piccolo Bass in Carter's hands can sound like a resonator(dobro) guitar. Just close your eyes and listen...

How about the Symphony Sid salute at 1.39..I think he played on the King Pleasure track..maybe not...but he states it so well....

whats the difference between piccolo bass and cello?

[Ismblues]

Piccolo bass is tuned in fourths C G D A

Cello is A D G C

Technique and overall is different.

Piccolo Bass is sweet!

[GassyMaskz]

It's physical form, the playing techniques, it's timbre, and just about everything but the fact that it's a string instrument that can be bowed.

The Publisher "Artist Transcriptions" publishes a book of sheet music by Ron Carter. The first song in it is "Blues for D.P." It's pretty cool to read, listen and then play the piece on the bass or the keyboard.

Who is he referring to with the title Blues for D.P.?
