Why do people want tabs to play other peoples music?! Sit there and tab it out by ear! Doesn't matter if you have to play the song 1,000 times and rewind 1,000 times! Take the time to learn things yourself.
@freshnyc I'm so Sick of ignorant Twats who have No idea the level of skill and dedication which goes into becoming a good slap bassist. Not to mention the fact that he isn't just slapping it, making him a rounded, not to mention very good Instrumentalist. Signed All of Jazz + Blues Musicians globally!
@fakiekid it doens't matter. when you have a 5 string bass you dont need the low string. and if you say that he can just use a 4 string, the fact is some people (like me) enjoy the feeling of the 5 string bass over the 4 string bass because it has a wider and thicker neck.
I think I would like a jazz bass, Looks like the truss rod adjustment is in the body. Big turn off for me, I like to tinker. does anybody know if this is mechanically better than the adjustment screw being at the headstock like my P?
@fenderbass i may get a fender next year,i know what kinda amp im going to buy i just havnt made up my mind on these basses but i know one thing it want be ibanez!lol i been playing ibanez for about 10yrs now and need a new sound and look,cus were im from every body and they moma plays a freakin ibanez!lol
@soursimon Damn man, I'm having a hard time trying to get a good sound out of my Am Std JB. I guess I'm gonna ultimately have to install a preamp and some active pickups.
@RLHubner You'd think Fender of all brands wouldn't release such inferior products for $ 2500. The month I owned that bass I spent several days tweaking tones just to get it to the same point as the $ 300 Yamaha I was using before. In the end I exchanged it for a new Yamaha 5-String. Very glad I did so.
@soursimon You were smart, I was sucked in by the Fender hype. I didn't have a single idea of what tone and feel mean, so I just kept playing it thinking it was supposed to sound like that. I think I'm just gonna put it in the closet and sell it for 7000 dollars 20 years in the future lol.
@Pinstripedtie I bought a used Am. Std JazzV off Talkbass and a set of Lakland pickups for ~$900 combined. Sounds fantastic, but even the Fender pickups were OK. These on this video sound like the Fenders, to me. As for the bridge, there's absolutely nothing wrong with it - don't waste your money on anything else. I've installed a number of high end bridges on different basses over the years and the Fender bridge is just as solid as any of those.
@Pinstripedtie Great call on the Stingray - EB/MM make the best Production-line Basses. If I had to start over, I'd be playing a few fretted and fretless Bongo 5 HS w/ piezos.
You'd be surprised regarding Sadowskys & Lulls. Less Ebay, but the $20 to become a "Supporting Member" @ Talkbass.com gives you access to the various "For Sale" forums where I got my "almost new" Mike Lull M4 & M5 for 1/2 their cost new as well as 3 of my Spectors. Plus it's a great place in general to, well, talk bass
@Pinstripedtie These days if you're going to spend $1400 on a new bass and $500 in upgrades before you play out, I'd seriously consider returning the Fender if possible and taking a close look at the Used Market. For almost two grand you could easily pick yourself up a near-mint Sadowsky Metro or Mike Lull, which would *kill* most non-Custom Shop Fenders. It's all about the Quality Control - Fender is EXTREMELY iffy, whereas a Lull or Sadowsky is 100%, every bass that leaves their shops.
@Pinstripedtie I'm pretty sure that if it's alder like Murdock's, and if it's studio processed (compression, etc) as in this clip, it will certainly sound the same! Don't waste your money yet!
Brilliant video but notice he's demo-ing a five string but NEVER hits the 'B'. Kinda defeats the object? Would love to hear the growl of that lower string. Oh well, once a 4 stringer ....
i really got into jazz playing with Victor Wooten and i always love seeing cats like Dock Murdock throw down on triplets and quadruplets. this is a FANTASTIC example of slap and pluck jazz.
The harmonic sounds are awesome. But I'm still ambivalent about deciding between Warwick(probably corvette) and Fender Jazz Series. I'm playing rock but I like jazz and classical sounds too.
And, Does Fender have any bass models with 6 strings?
can someone please tell me what "FPE" stands for?
