Wow, thanks!

Yes?

@@BassWhispererTV Just, "Ed!" because when your videos drop I'm happy

@@gnpahdcThanks!

I don’t disagree, but the title is referring to the Jazz Bass, which is the specific instrument I’m talking about. Thanks for watching.

@@BassWhispererTV I will say that bass players that we see know they want to be like super famous and do crazy things, but for me bass is the foundation of the music, I still remember a interview of Victor Wooten where he said I feel a little I regret having pursued a solo musical career, which closed many doors for me to groups and gigs with other artists. I happy to see many bass players looking to play a learn jazz and others style of music, I hope that they can came out from online pages and play with someone so they can bring good music back to stages.

@@cristianv1078 This video has nothing to do with playing jazz! I'm talking about the Jazz Bass, a particular model, a specific electric bass that many people play. I appreciate the contact, but... as I said... this is not about Jazz music.

Hmm, haven’t tried that! I had a ‘51 RI and found the pickup to be oddly bright when left open. I replaced that with a Nordy split-coil version of the pickup because of hum

Thanks, I replied to that video 3 times!

I get it. But the Jazz neck… mmmm…. Perfection!

Well, I can’t hear it, but I’m sure I’ve lost some high end over the years.

@@BassWhispererTV Apparently we all do - something like 1db a year above 10k from 40 onwards. Seriously😬

I’m going to be doing some more demos coming up for a boutique shop. Stay tuned!

These are Labella 760FS.

Big fan of Mr. Flowers!

Rotosound 88 tapes though.

I’ve had soooo many Stingrays! I love them, and in fact… I’m kind of Jonesing for one now, but… I have no legitimate use for one except slapping in my living room.

@@BassWhispererTV Stingrays are not just for Slapping:) imo they do better than a P for dense mix, heavy low end keys/organ, modern genres, etc. Where a P works, a Stingray can to....with some tweaks:)

I thought the same thing, but you kind need both of them. The Jazz Bass with flats is a killer tone also. Think Bob Marley, early James Brown with Bootsy on bass, Khruangbin, to name a few of my favorites.

I usually do! But I have this amazing Jazz with a beautiful neck that feels so good, it didn’t take much to make it work for me like a P does.

Joseph Lucky Scott, David Hood, Joe Osborn, Dee Murray, Robbie Shakespeare, Herbie Flowers, heck Paul McCartney too....the list goes on. Jazz w/flats is one of the classic iconic bass sounds--always a little different from a P.

Certainly the most significant changes I’ve made, but the Tone Drop is totally worth it!

Love JPJ!

Thanks for not disowning me Laurence!

Glad to hear the HX Stomp is working out.

Thanks! I feel like I have “lazy” chops. They only work when they have to.

Yes! 760FS (.105-.045 standard gauge)

I feel the same. I think these mods are a good choice.

Oddly enough, I had a pick stuck up in the strings behind the nut the entire time and didn’t know it! I was remiss!

@@BassWhispererTV Sounds, to me, like the perfect excuse for another video for this bass.

@@Murdo2112Yeah, I need to practice my pick a little…. Kinda rusty.

Thanks! I love this bass. The foam… is just random stuff I find. The dark gray stuff is from packaging, the blue and yellow stuff are scraps from the craft store. It’s about finding a density and softness that works for you.
