Hey! You have made great lessons, good to learn, and if I listen to you, you give some info about the theoritecal side the music you are playing, which is good for more advanced players. I'm a guitarist who tries to find what that 'bass'thing is :P You're helping me get along very well! Thanks alot!
I wish someone would build an acoustic bass with a nice huge body that has a real BASS tone ... I don't care if it looks goofy or not, but I guess it might not sell because of the way it looks. Nice fill btw Marlowe.
@Pudsy440 I know what you're saying and I wish it too, but unfortunately the size of a body to produce that kind of tone would be really unwieldy as a guitar like upright bass size, and at that point it's no longer a guitar. The closest thing would the the kind of bass guitar that Mariachi groups play called a guitarron.
@THIl2D3Y3 yeah ... I've seen those guitarrons ... they're pretty funny looking, wouldn't mind having one to play around with. Yeah, guess you're right, it would be too unwieldy ... I have an acoustic bass, it's great for practicing alone and maybe jamming with a guitar player with a light touch but really not enough volume to match a loud acoustic guitar. Aww well, the nature of the low note. :)
I have to agree with a lot of people on your videos. They are more educational than most of the other instructional videos that are online these days. You are doing amazing work and I am proud to be subscribed to you
I love that little semitone pitch shift/slide... you also see that sort of thing a lot in good rock music! Also sounds nice if you bend the string for the lower note to the same pitch as the next fret rather than slide up, but that's a bit more tough to do and sounds about the same anyway :)
What kind of bass is that? it sounds so clear.
