This is mine.

I had a polytune clip, it worked well but you can't rotate it, so it wasn't any good for my bass. I use a Planet Waves mini one. It's tiny and very unobtrusive, tracks well even on the low B. It's small but can still be seen easily enough. Also because it's small I can just leave it attached, even while the bass is in its bag being transported.

I think it's usually something like 25% in total. That's on everything including the shipping costs.

De der de da 😊

Yep, you need to check if its got dots where the fret should be, or in the normal place.

I don't mind joining in.

I've played in a few art galleries with my one jazz band. They're always nice, a nice vibe.

Yawn 😊. This has been done to death, I'm sure I've seen similar threads at least twice in the last year. Maybe they're selling them to buy 6 string basses ?

[quote name='Grassie' timestamp='1456243245' post='2986973'] Thank you Ambient, it was me who was on the verge of a bass/window interface trying to learn this for a new project, this might well help. [/quote] No problem, I'm glad to be of help . Have you got Transcribe software ? Get it if you haven't. It's free, and is amazing. You can isolate sections, phrases etc, and slow them down. It's really useful for parts like this. [url="http://www.seventhstring.com"]http://www.seventhstring.com[/url]

[quote name='BassBus' timestamp='1456212954' post='2986570'] Nice work. Some lush sounds there. [/quote] [quote name='cheddatom' timestamp='1456225452' post='2986732'] beautiful! [/quote] Thanks . Check out Sebastian's other work, he's very good.

From last October. Bass looping and jazz guitar.

I don't think it's spead up. You only have to hear Matt Garrison or Gary Willis play for instance.

[quote name='kevvo66' timestamp='1456172211' post='2986292'] If you want to be a fret board w***er , take up guitar and leave the bass alone ,your missing the point love Don't take offence take the gate it's easier I thank you�� [/quote] I think there's bass playing, and bass playing. Personally I'd take exception to the term 'love' too, but that's just me. Sometimes this is a great forum. Other times not so, especially when there's playing that doesn't conform to the collective view of what bass playing should be. I think both videos are amazing, I'd love to have that kind of ability. I've spent many thousands of hours practicing and don't come anywhere close.

[quote name='Kevin Glasgow' timestamp='1452716668' post='2952888'] Hi folks, Here's a little solo improvisation over Autumn Leaves. Hope you enjoy it! [media]http://youtu.be/TovN2oXlDhY[/media] Cheers, Kev [/quote] That's brilliant, thoroughly enjoyed that !

Cue lots of, erm yeah I know I said she couldnt play, and wouldn't be able to hold a groove, but erm, well yeah, erm. 😊

I know next to nothing about vintage Fender basses. I know enough to say that I'd leave this one well alone though.

Probably a bit of a controversial topic on here . I love this though, my 2 favourite bassists playing together. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvNjAAlIad8"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvNjAAlIad8[/url]

This is for the guy who posted about trying to the learn the line. It was originally sequenced using a Fairlight. Here's the line written out, and best of luck. Slow it down and learn each phrase one at a time, then practice playing the phrases together, slowly building up the tempo. It sometimes helps with really syncopated lines to pencil in lines for each beat, so's you can see which note goes where, if you see what I mean . [attachment=212926:hyperactive-bass5--.jpg]

I'd like to go, just to see Michael Manring. I'm just put off by the racket that I know will be caused by people slapping very badly.

Have you placed an advert on Gumtree ? That's usually pretty good for finding bands and musicians. Odd really but when I advertise on there for jazz gigs, I get offered exactly what you're looking for.

[quote name='BassBus' timestamp='1455966131' post='2983993'] Quite load enough on my iPad. Just wish it was a bit longer. On the other hand, does it need to be. Incidental music is only going to be used in shorts snippets. Make sure you post the video when it's done. [/quote] Thanks for listening. It's just an edit, the whole piece is about 6 minutes long. I'm doing the music for a video that's going to form a part of an ITV documentary.
