Как правило, модернизация музыкального инструмента делает его более специализированным, даже узко специализированным, или вовсе игрушкой. Этот же инструмент, на первый взгляд, остался таким же универсальным, как классическая виолончель, и приобрёл новые возможности (например, игра аккордами и более простое освоение для исполнения поп- и рок- музыки). Конечно, в академическое музыкальное заведение с такой виолончелью лучше не входить, во избежание анафемы! 😆 А вот для матёрых мультиинструменталистов - это просто подарок!

Very nice comparison. I am a double bass player and when comparing higher register with cello, the double bass is always falling behind in brightness and projection. Solo register a kind of more muddy than cello. So I was wondering how would sound a double bass with added fifth string for solo work. Have you tried maybe NS design 5 string double bass?
@nathanbegel45055 күн бұрын
There's a tuning that bozo uses a lot and that's been used to play other repertoire and that's high c tuning. You take out the low E and replace it with a high C string: so you have ADGc 👍
@TomoyaAomori3 сағат бұрын
No, I haven't tried the 5 string NS bass, but in the past I've experimented with 5ths tuning on double bass (cello tuning but 1 octave lower), plus I added the high E string for the 5th string. I really felt that the 5ths tuning made the bass less "muddy", especially for solo works. Of course you can say muddy is depth, and less muddy is thin, but I was able to play lots of amazing music with that tuning! Of course for 4ths tuning I agree that either solo tuning or having a high C string is pretty common for bass players who want to play high 😁
@AlCaponeBand-o2h2 сағат бұрын
I've have seen your other videos on classical works with 5ths tuning and it's sounds wonderful and I agree the 5ths tuning is less muddy than 4ths tuning. The thing is if I add the high C then I loose the bottom end, that's why I was looking for the 5 string double bass to have both possiblities reaching cello high registers with high c and stil having the bottom end. Solo tuning is fine but I play in a jazz trio, so that would be too much work of transposing jazz standards to solo tuning. What I wanted to ask you is what is your opinion on NS design EUB in terms of sound with both pozz and arco.

Mind me looking beyond the wonderful tune, a bass bow I see you using there, what’s the choice there? I’m guessing it has a different quality to a cello bow

Hello Tomoya I love your playing!! When you play acoustic cello what is your favourite pick up? Also do you use the pre amp that comes with it? Do you use a bass amp with this? Thanks!!
@TomoyaAomori3 ай бұрын
Hello Matthew, thank you for the message! I haven’t tried many pickups, but the Kolstein Planetwing pickup is super simple to set up, as long as it fits in the bridge. I would probably do a planet wing pickup to a DI box to an amp. Probably a keyboard amp or an amp that doesn’t alter the sound much? Hope this helps! Thank you

WHY WOULD A CELLO HAVE THOSE UGLY FRETS! You know that you can have frets PRINTED on the fingerboard 😒
@peonerovv17704 ай бұрын
Interesting comment about the vibrato. On a guitar, to achieve vibrato, you would bend the string sligtly up and down (so left and right on a cello). You can only vibrato up, so its not the same as on a violin-style instrument
@Abracadabra2084 ай бұрын
Respectfully, the video title is misleading. I thought you would be demonstrating an archaic member of the violin family that was the precursor to the violoncello. It was slightly larger than the cello that evolved from it, and was sometimes tuned a whole tone lower across the four strings. Antonio Stradivari standardized the smaller, modern cello proportions, and after his innovation, every known bass violin was either destroyed, lost, or cut down to size and converted into a cello. The double bass is technically not a member of the violin family, but related to another archaic family of bowed stringed instruments that predated the violin family, called the viola da gamba. They including treble, alto, tenor, and bass versions, and the modern double bass was a descendant of the "contrabass" rendition of the viol.

thx for this presentation. very cool. question about the frets: are they made of metal, like on a guitar? do they "eat into" (and break the outer winding) of the strings?
@TomoyaAomori6 ай бұрын
Thanks for the message! They look metal, but they haven't scraped my metal strings -- maybe because the cello strings are thicker than guitar strings? I haven't had to change strings yet (been since the summer 2023).
@wolfcomposer48536 ай бұрын
@@TomoyaAomori thank you for the information - sounds good. The concern I heard was actually that cello strings are designed for wooden, smooth surface fretboards and their outer winding is rather thin, making it susceptible to break when using metal frets. Good to hear that doesn't happen. btw, I much enjoyed your Jazz bowing videos - thx.

I have been watching your videos. Can you talk about why do you position your cello that way? It is almost like 45 turn with the string into your body, rather than the strings facing completely forward.. I noticed that it could be easier looking at the fretboad that way, but traditional accustic cellos have a complete different positioning and looking at the fretboard isnt always easy.
