Scott’s choice of cords as well as his cleanliness and clarity just really really shows how much the Bass has evolved, then he so tastefully slid harmonics instead of a bunch of fast notes!!! I’m past the whole “who’s the best”, thing? On this level it’s simply the individuals choice of notes.

[@musenw8834]

Yeah which is why he gave bass lessons. But he's stopped this year

[@trevorsmith1375]

It’s almost exactly how victor wooten plays , you can tell he’s definitely a huge influence on Scott

[@musenw8834]

you can tell that they're definitely teacher material by the way they play. less of slap bass and more of melodic and clean lines.

[@jeanrepetto]

yeah nuthin more exciting than to hear slow clear notes from people who aren't the best...i know that gets me going when i need that pick me up..oh wait thats meth..oh well nevermind..and thats no lie

[@BathtubBass]

Yeah but if you have to wear a glove for clarity when no one else does then that's a step behind.

[@chrisf8904]

This is one of the BEST things KZbin hass thrown at me for a loooooooong time. Just goes to show how the modern movement has evolved a traditional rhythm instrument into an instrument that covers everything. High melodics, chords, tapping, harmonies, harmonics, percussion, filter pedals, looping..... with the frequency range of the modern bass, low down thump and high end gliss.... this is the one instrument that is closest to a whole bands worth of sounds in my opinon.
