Highfox Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Bruno Mars, anyone else think it's a great sounding bass line? Even with headphones on I think I'm driving them indoors nuts playing along to it. Teach them to get my CD's from Crimbo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musicman20 Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Bruno is one of the best male artists in current pop if you ask me. Really bringing back some style, a proper band, and a hint of rock. His bassist is great. I've followed him on Instagram and he has some great bass gear.

Horizontalste Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 What surprised me is how simple the bass line is. Just goes to show you don't need to play all the notes all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve-bbb Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 it is a very classy bass line indeed - figured it out and have been pestering our band like absolute crazy to cover it ...... although im sure the singists will come up with some reason not to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tredders Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 My 12 year old had the new CD for Christmas, and I was playing this track on bass yesterday. One of the few 'artists' she listens to that I actually think is decent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
