  1. Arran killing it on this one. My favorite #fretless player at the moment. One of the reasons why I took #bass lessons with him. #bassguitar #music #metal youtube.com/watch?v=fqkTywJfPDU

  2. Basically no one but Thomann carries the 2L+3R configuration of Gotoh GB707 tuners I need for my Ibanez 5-string bass--and shipping was going to be brutal, plus an unknown amount for tariffs--so I went with a 2+2 set plus one extra individual R tuner from Philadelphia Luthier Tools. The price was competitive and the shipping was free. Very excited to get my poor baby working again.

    In the meantime, #GuessingStick

  3. I had forgotten that my wife recorded a little of us playing for incidental music prior to this wedding. This is with my #Ibanez SRH505F (5-string semi-hollow #fretless). (Please overlook where I got lost at the end of the chorus.)

    (acoustic rendition of "Take On Me")

  4. After you get hooked on #microtonal music by #anginedepoitrine or #kinggizzardandthelizardwizard or a host of other fine artists, you might want to give it a go. Options are not cheap, but there is always a way to #DIY your way close enough. And so here now a quick vid to get you to make a #fretless #microtonal experimentation #instrument from a #ukulele .
    Is it exacting fine #luthier craftspersonship? Nope. But it's a start. Go forth .

  5. i am slowly, slowly beginning to suck less with my bass slapping game. I never was any good at it but damnit I'm really trying now, this chorus is such a damn awesome groove.

    song is Peg, by Steely Dan

  6. Hi home instrument makers!

    What could I use as the skin/drum for a crude home made fretless biscuit tin banjo?

  7. Je savais que j’aurai pas du aller voir les boutiques… Je le savais ! Du coup j’ai craqué… pour une basse fretless. Voici le résultat. Bon, c’est pas parfait, mais je m’attendais à bien pire pour un premier essai… Et toi t’en penses quoi ? Et aussi, qu'est-ce qu'elle sonne bien !

  8. Tony Franklin is a famous bassist. He has recorded with the likes of James Patrick Page (Led Zeppelin), and was in The Firm.

  9. That's the video where I played fretless bass, and I mixed it so it can be heard this time. Fresh off the mixer and kdenlive.

  10. #Fretless. Before I fall fully into a microtonal fretboard build it probably makes sense to try something fretless to learn more about it. I was trying to figure out building an #oud but given the amount of #cbgitty parts I have now it is going to be more a 3 stringer. And hey, look whose face miraculously was revealed in the wood... #churchofthesubgenius #Bob #letGlueDry #cigarboxguitar

  11. Woo! All my custom string sets from #DRstrings finally came in. Along with the tapewounds from #LaBella. Maybe tonight I'll throw them on.

    Also, bought a Greco GS940 #semihollow #shortscale #bass that I'm going to convert into a #fretless #cello. That'll arrive in a few weeks.

    Another #electricBass will be on it's way soon. Details to follow. 😜

    Oh. I decided on a whim to buy a new used #Behringer graphicEQ and #DBX compressor+limiter+noise gate. I feel like I stole them they were so cheap but, I know they were sitting around for a long time.

    Traded in a hard case that came w/ my #Ibanez bass.

    It's certainly been a #NGD #newGearDay !

  12. Toujours exploration de la basse. Vraiment très content d'avoir opté pour la fretless d'emblée. Même pour un débutant, au fil des jours, les sensations s'installent dans les doigts, les mains, l'ensemble du corps. On ressent la tension des cordes, la douceur du manche, la subtilité des harmoniques. Instrument fabuleux. #basse #fretless

  13. Today for my lunchtime jams, I am bringing with me my beloved #Ibanez SRH505F Guessing Stick, on which I am woefully out of practice

  14. Now that Mariah Carey has defrosted for Christmas, I thought I could share the only Christmas tune I ever recorded for my side-project Ålvik. 😊

    It's a cover of O Holy Night (Minuit, Chrétiens) with fretless bass as the lead instrument.

  15. Is there an experienced player of #fretless #bass that would want to try a recently completed medium scale instrument located in #leeds #yorkshire UK?

  16. Incidental #music after the wedding on Saturday.

    A very chill acoustic "Take On Me" with Mike on a beautiful #Ovation #guitar and me on the #Ibanez #fretless guessing stick. Not my best playing, but it had been a long day already.

  17. New studio addition and my first ever bass guitar, a fretless Sire P7.

    Loving how it sounds and feels even though my technique leaves a lot to be desired at the moment. I’m not finding fretless playing as difficult as I thought but my right-hand plucking technique needs a lot of work.

  18. just revisiting this interview that Mark from Talking Bass did with me back in 2019. As a primer on what I'm up to, this is currently as good as it gets, even though it's pre-COVID, pre-cancer. Mark really did his homework before this ♥️

  19. Came back to listen to "Integral" by Cynic again. A beautiful tribute to Sean Malone. #bass #fretless #bassguitar youtube.com/watch?v=woGfOQ6Ze9

  20. Had loads of fun at the Dingwall clinic yesterday. It was a great honor to meet Sheldon in person and also had a nice chat with Philipp Rehm, who is a killer #bass player 🤘 People were also quite interested in my #fretless bass that I brought to the event 😸 #bassguitar

  21. Day 1 on the #fretless #bass. Binged @Solobasssteve videos and got some pointers by Arran McSporran. It's a very different beast, but tons of fun! 😸#bassguitar youtube.com/shorts/OLlvH3fkFy8
