Petit tour sur le territoire du #jazz avec une de mes bassiste préféré: Esperanza Spalding

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

A Stór (Irish for "my treasure") is a piece for marimba, piano, and fretless bass. It’s inspired by Piazzolla and dedicated to Tiziana.
The bass I used here is a 1960s Höfner 182 that I’ve had since the 90s. A friend removed its frets and painted it black, and I recently updated the pickups. Do you like its sound? ^_^

Yes, that's a #Sepultura tapestry in the background. I found it in "The Bins", believe it or not. (Good for me but, sad that it made it that far.)https://f-droid.org/packages/ru.tech.imageresizershrinker

I hear people are even more fake on the Internet than than are IRL. You won't find that here. I'm not going to pretend that my gear is always neat. It's not. This is what things really look like.
Sometimes, I want to try something out & have to reroute power & patch cables. Then it just stays like that for a while and the pedals are not lined up all pretty anymore. lol
This is my "#pedalboard" in progress. Monophonic & meant to showcase what #NativeAudio has to offer.
The #ElectronicAudioExperiments: Prismatic Wall is for the #banjo #guitar
The #JamPedals is for the #fretlessBass side.
They're both incredible. -

I got one of the last #JamPedals Ripply Falls bass #effectsPedals ever made!
They sent out an E-mail stating they were discontinuing them. Twenty of the regular artwork remained. Within an hour of receiving the message, all those were gone. I wanted this Archenbach art version. It's really cool and is the first piece to make my #fretlessBass #pedalboard.
#Handmade in #Greece using point-to-point circuitry, the old fashioned way.

Is it inappropriate to use the #jamuary tag out of season? What else should I tag these with?
Here's tonights #dailyPractice #dailyjam on the #fretlessBass #electricBass The first section is mostly hammer-ons & pull-offs. As always, this is largely #noeffort. 😜
If you want longer recordings where I do put in effort, tip me! Help me get an audio interface so I can properly record #music.

These #ibanez Aerosilk #piezopickups are great. The only downside is that I cannot add a 6th string. Not unless I double up on the top but, the nut width is a bit narrow so they'd definitely remain rather close.
Only hack I could do, really, would be to try glueing a strip of wood to the bottom of the fingerboard + add new fretmarkers. I don't feel like doing that.
Not long before this model was revealed, I wrote to them asking for a 6-string #fretlessBass basically with these specs or maybe 35" scale length. They didn't have any plans but always appreciated feedback/suggestions from customers/players.

Decided to tune my #Ibanez SRD905F #electricBass to drop C with a low G on the bottom. Wanted to brighten up one note in a riff. lol at trying to play chords on a #fretlessBass.
#DAddario #tapewounds and stock #flatwounds strings. This tuning does work fine. I'd prefer all the strings to be a bit thicker.
If I were to keep it like this, I'd get the bottom four of a 5-string set or heavier flatwound singles. The low G is fine as tapewound but, I'm also using a nasty fuzz pedal. 😈

Playing #fretlessBass without an amp just kind of sounds like snapping a rubber band against a table. 🫠

Just drum and bass.
The bass is freetless and played with the right hand in a "creative" way.

I got a new #fretlessbass! I've been eyeing this model ever since it came out. Now I can shut up.
#Ibanez SRD905F 5-string. magnetic+piezo pickups. 30 stops
Made in Indonesia. It shows. I've noticed a few things that'd never fly from a US shop. See photos. Not a big deal but for $1300 + tax, brand new, no case...
This is not the specific #bass I thought I was ordering. Exchanged a few words w/ the shop... 😬 Alas, that fingerboard won me over & I made aesthetic sense of the body grain. lol
Waiting on the #LaBella black nylon tapewounds to arrive at my local shoppe.

Nothing cheers a fella up like buying a new #electricBass... or two. 😅🤭🤑
Ordered a new beautiful #fretlessBass and am talking to a guy about buying his old fretted.
I'll post photos and sound samples in the near future!While I was at it, I happened to notice some good sales over at https://Heavys.com and ordered a bundle of #LacunaCoil #headphones for my lady. For myself, I grabbed the #AgnosticFront "shells" and I couldn't *Refuse/Resist* the #Sepultura can covers.

I was able to get my #fretlessbass with .135g tapewound flatwounds down to low F#.
If I keep my #basses at the sub #contrabass level and use a #cello #guitar for anything higher, wouldn't the cello then really be the #doublebass? 😜
P.S. the trick is to hit the string hard near the bridge and use a little fuzz. (Also using a little chorus, reverb, minimal delay (time:10, fb:10, mix:20) plenty of EQ). It sounds just fine.
Only 3 strings on this half of the bass.
The other 4 on the neck are fretted, lol. Currently tuned C1, G1, C2, F2. Maybe both sections will shift to have low G on the bottom! -
It's not really silent for #SilentSunday, but this is a meditative piece for fretless bass guitar I wrote back in '15 or so. The ambient noise is all from noise oscillators and a sample I created from flipping the pages of a book passed through heavy delay and convolution reverb.
