The Short Scale Bass Appreciation Society!
EssentialTension replied to Baloney Balderdash's topic in Bass Guitars
Maybe so, but I wasn't suggesting a permanent arrangement, merely a way of checking out the feel and sound of a 30" for the cost of a capo. -

Yes I have done. No one really notices. If you want to try it tune a 34" scale bass a whole tone down to DGCF. Put a capo at fret two and you have a 30" scale EADG bass. Nice! -

While allowing for exceptions to my rule, I'd limit any instrumental section to an absolute MAXIMUM of eight bars. And I wouln't call it a solo. And I don't mean only bass. I don't need to be reminded of the 1970s, I was there.

The pickguard is a great colour.

If he plays in a band, he ought to know not to interfere with other people's equipment.

Jet Harris was the first bassist I was aware of and listened to very carefully. I didnt have a bass or even a guitar but I still mimed his playing in my bedroom. -

I asked my son, who I am afraid to say is more widely knowledgable about music than me, if he was familiar with Piero Piccioni. Of course he was, and then also recommended the more contemporary El Michels Affair ...

Agreed Jazz bass and flats played with a pick nearer to the neck is very much the sound of that era and that could easily be what this is but I feel I hear something else, maybe in the recording process or pre-amp. Listening again , I am more leaning towards it being an electric bass with flats and pick. Anyway, it sounds great.
