Madonna Borderline bass cover

[alexpea]

I’m new to this whole bass cover thing but I’ve got quite in to doing it during lockdown. Here’s my version of ‘Borderline’ by Madonna.

2010 Fender USA jazz bass with Kiogon VVT + Series/Parallel switch. I had it in series mode for this. DI’d via Sansamp bass driver

Great bassline and excellent playing! Really good bass tone as well.

IMHO the high contrast visual effect looks good, but it does wash out what you're doing on the fretboard (only a problem if you want the video to be instructional for other bass players).

Enjoyed that - Thanks 👍

Thanks! 
 

Yea I know what you mean about the comic book effect. Part of the fretboard washout was due to me playing in front of a window on a sunny day. There seems to be a lot of laquer on the maple board too which catches the light.

Totally loved that - playing and the tone. Nice job.
