Reggae Bass 'Pass the Kouchie'

[Santanak89]

what kind of bass is that and amp?

[inferi321]

wat notes you playing?

[yourmanwatson]

Actually every Jamaican I play with swears to me that low A is actually a G.. drives me nuts cause I swear it's the A.. But then again the riddim is "Full Up" which Leroy Sibbles played Bass on the original track of ..and when I saw Leroy Sibbles live .. he picked up the bass and played this one.. and there was that damn G..

[ALIONBASS]

@yourmanwatson Yes this is Full Up, but Leroy plays it a little different so this version is not 100% original: youtube.com/watch?v=fx9mhjD0Pd­­8 (that's me on bass). Leroy loves to play in G :-)  Grtz

[yourmanwatson]

@ALIONBASS tried that link but it didn't seem to work for me.. yeah you know what I mean, Just that little different way he plays it.. I didn't mean that he played the song in G..

watch?v=xP6C5wvYHG8 (that's me on keys..no footage of me on bass unfortunately)

[jambuti]

Excellent playing and a great choice of riddims, keep up the good work especially the studio one classics.

Your jazz basses sound great - what amp and cab would you recommend for the live reggae sound ?

[ALIONBASS]

Thanks, live I use an Ampeg amp and cabinets. Trace Elliot is good too, but everything depends on your taste.

[R00tn0te]

Smooth & Slick - nice!

[BadPsyTron]

Good answer.

Alionbass plays a lot of songs that are classic but not really commercial. Just try his files and learn the artists he's playing bass with.
