Thurman "Peanut" Woods Bass Classical/Jazz

[DuxJerome]

Does anyone know what bass amp he is using?I also have a Smith but cant get this sound.

Its near but not quite.

[HavocBillz]

@brentsmith1988 @saxmanrh that comment was not for mr woods. It was for @brentsmith1988 -- I was answering his question.

[saxmanrh]

@HavocBillz Wasn't sure. I got you now. You get some crazy replies sometimes. Thanks for the clarity.

[HavocBillz]

@saxmanrh Lol yeaa, its cool. No prob

[HavocBillz]

@gleventhal . That comment was not for Thurman ! Read the comments below. Somebody asked where they could learn to play like this and I replied "buy a DVD or find someone experienced to teach you. That wasnt a comment for Mr. Woods .

[MrAndrewbassone]

Yeah Jesus!!! grettings from Colombia =D

[HavocBillz]

Sorry 4 that misconception .

[HavocBillz]

Lol Ohh no. Peanut is great. Somebody asked where they could learn that from. But if he's to make a DVD just be very descriptive because alot of ppl aren't familiar with all musical terms & meaning. Other than that he should just include his tuning and hid rig ; ya know Wut gives him that unique Thurman Woods sound.

[HavocBillz]

Honestly, get someone really experienced to teach you or purchase a dvd

[saxmanrh]

@HavocBillz

Ok, I'll let him know. I'm sure Thurman is well aware of his need for lessons. Any recommendations for DVD's?

[gleventhal]

@HavocBillz Are you joking?  He sounds great!

[brentsmith1988]

[Thurmanww]

Fender Jazz. Good all around bass, In MY opinion.

[stlmusicboi87]

can u put a couple of videos up playing a few congregationals? I'm really good wit playing CCM, but I'm never put in a postion to play traditional. I'm lookin to expand my skill...thanx

[Thurmanww]

I'll put up some more clips soon, just been cray busy.

[bassmanvic]

hey bro.great playing I play bass also,and I want to know what helped you to run on the fret broad so smooth,and fast?

[Thurmanww]

I play a lot and try to learn the instrument. I start slow and gradually speed it up. Sounds funny but there is no shortcut but to practice. It has to become second nature where you don't think about it. Sometimes thinking and playing don't go well together. SOMETIMES.

[tlbaize]

my idol...

[justbecauseGodsaidit]

WOW!!! We finally got to hear this infamous "Peanut" when Tiny Lucas shared at our church in RI she was speaking of musical families and she mentioned the "Woods" and Peanut was one of the persons mentioned.... In her comments, there were great accolades, however, this guy is totally off the chain. Maybe one day we will hear from the others. I think there is another brother and sister?....and the Father plays as well? Anyway God bless!

[Thurmanww]

Man how is Tiny? I do have a sister and 2 brothers that play as well. Tiny and our family go way back. If you get a chance to talk to her, please tell her I said hello.

[mrjamerican1]
