Hobbayne Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 I think Bb has a very satisfying ring to it. If you play it on the A string 1st fret it gives a nice thump! Quote

witterth Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 (edited) a "D" tuned E string on a 4 string bass. oh and a B ( but only on an A string, yuk on the E at 7th fret ) Edited September 6, 2011 by witterth Quote
Blademan_98 Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 There are other notes? E of course! Quote
paul_5 Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 Ab - 4th fret 'E' string. Lovely sound. Not G# though, that would just be wrong... Quote
xgsjx Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 On a standard 4 string it would most definitely be B on the E. I like how the resonant frequencies make it rattle lots of things! Quote

gerryc Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 £50 couple of suitcases full would do. Well someone had to............coat please Quote
stingrayPete1977 Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 (edited) D on a low B string is quite nice for a breve or a semi breve Edited September 6, 2011 by stingrayPete1977 Quote
ROConnell Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 C, 3rd fret on the A string, just marvellous. Quote

51m0n Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 Any that I actually manage to make sound 'right' all the way from start to finish, no unwanted clunks, clicks, squeaks and wotnot... But I do love the low Db on the B string of the Roscoe.... Quote

PerfectionBG Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 The natural harmonic on the 5th fret of the A string, what a beaut! Quote
TheGreek Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 The growl from an "F" on the "E" string on a four string... Quote
