Tony Levin’s Beyond The Bass Clef is another good collection of bass/biz anecdotes, but it might be out of print these days. Thanks i'll have a look as he's had an interesting career too. Its on Amazon at £41 for paperback so think i'll give that a miss at moment. Dave 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rikki1984 Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 I love that Kiss and Tell bass line. I've never heard the song before. Excellent use of space in a bass part. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ezbass Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 I like all the bass line/story sharing that's coming from the great and good of the low end , but Guy's output is my favourite. It certainly has the best sound IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

police squad Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 another inspirational video. Guy has made me want to improve my playing. I actually pick up my 'lounge' bass and practice on it now and I'm even playing without a pick!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmccombe7 Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Got the Toy Matinee album thru last week from US. Took 3 weeks to deliver. Fantastic album. If you don't already have it you should give it a listen on Youtube. Dave 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scalpy Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 MiBass and a logic compressor. Doesn't matter what he plugs in either sounds great, although the 62 jazz was particularly special I thought. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cetera Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Loving this latest one. Always been a fave bassline of mine and thrilled that people are discovering the Toy Matinee album which has been in my Top 3 albums ever since I first discovered it some 15 years ago....! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can do it ok, but never really find the right time to do it. In fact i can do it better when playing pick style without a pick. I just noticed all that fret buzz in Guys latest video. That would drive me nuts if my bass did that, and it has driven me nuts in the past, but then you hear it in context and its all gone. Just goes to show. If my bass doesn’t do that, I know it’s set up wrong.😉 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
