Fender Kingman Acoustic Bass SCE DEMO (VIDEO)

Little test of an Acoustic Fender Kingman bass.
Recording chain TBA :)

[@nvdawahyaify]

I have to say that I greatly appreciate you playing the bass in it's full range. Not just focusing on the high end. So many people play the bass only in the high end, and when they do, I wonder why they aren't using the basses potential.

[@benbautista2087]

How does it cost?

[@zerofret4207]

You can't make a dime above 5!

[@austinhammond6018]

Bass typically has 4 strings. Sometimes you can get basses with more strings.

[@vincenzollamas]

you're the first person i've found on KZbin who gets a good tone out of a Fender Kingman acoustic bass

[@stayalwaysobjective]

This is far of the best demo/demonstration of the Kingman! Congrats!! ;)

[@charlielucas3386]

This bass’s tone is smooth as ice, man!! 😎 Outstanding sound and playing! 👍🏻

[@bassbutter4767]

Absolutely awesome tones!! Big, rich, musical !

[@fragallo1188]

Simply beautiful. Thank you

[@alaindecont7331]

What a beautiful song...and playing

[@B9MSheitz]

I just received mine today *q* I was looking for good song to play with, and your demo is amazing !

[@basstv3777]

Thanks Germain :)

[@brianstrom6649]

Nice playing.

[@charlottejohnson9253]

Lovely playing.

[@Rylee_G]

I love this

[@WhiteNacho]

Super warm.

[@basstv3777]

Have fun!

[@arthurogle7581]

Great demo IMHO. I'm playing a different brand that took extensive tweaking to get the sound I desire. Other brand starts with the letter D.

[@basstv3777]

Cool, thanks!

[@JonatanCarlsson]

I love it! I will definitely save money for this one!

[@basstv3777]

+Geometry Dash Fridge It is really interesting instrument for not too much money... And we are not endorsing it in any way...

[@TheMemo659]

Have had this exact bass for years. Killer for sitting on a stand at home to grab n play, I do all my home practice on it. However, its pretty quiet and can't keep up with an acoustic guitar's volume. I use an electric for my band's "acoustic" sets.

[@saschamacph]

I love mine

[@theopoiesis]

Beautiful playing, man How does that bass sound without the output?

[@basstv3777]

Thanks Koji! Acoustically without amp it is not very loud. Good for practicing but that´s it. With amp it is very nice sounding. For recording blend the mics and pickup.

[@Lord_UND_Himself]

@@basstv3777 - Exactly my thoughts. You're a great player btw. Your melodic playing and use of harmonics is inspiring. Was that improvised?

[@NenadVasilicMusic]

@@Lord_UND_Himself Thanks! Yes it is improvised.

[@vinnieladders3470]

I've been on the fence for years about buying one. Still unable to decide.

[@cmvb]

and then?

[@MyDrugHell]

@@cmvb Still hasn't decided.

[@cmvb]

@@MyDrugHell I decided...only electric

[@MyDrugHell]

@@cmvb A wise choice. :)

[@andreadigiorgio8701]

2:21 is that the sound of a phone ringtone? 🤣

[@hunterfagan6272]

wish I could get that in a lefty

[@sunburstksk]

Great playing and tone! What strings are you using on this bass?

[@sonic5d]

What song is this? Amazing~

[@JC-bt7io]

What strings he have on that bass? the sound is amazing

[@rossb.4773]

Why is Fender so prejudice against left handed players on not making a Kingman acoustic bass? I would buy one in a snap..

[@saschamacph]

You can order one

[@davidderosi5552]

what strings do you using? thanks...

[@TAWTAW-hf3xw]

I hear that the neck dives.

[@Andrew850]

what kind of strings are you using?

[@munneysh]

hi. i have a question. can i set a 45-105 electric bass string on it?

[@basstv3777]

+Mani Shahedi yes, but dont do that. It will not sound very well. Take 40-100 set

[@Pleasantviller]

+Mani Shahedi Tried La Bella 45-105 flatwound, didn't work out. the bridge simply can't hold it. Then i installed Olympia 45-100 flatwound, it sounds sweet then:)

[@jackquarantillo5192]

@@Pleasantviller can you elaborate on "can't hold it"?

[@Pleasantviller]

@@jackquarantillo5192 the strings will be too strong that constantly pull the pins out of the bridge

[@Yanét-Juliett]

Is it long scale or short?

[@jackquarantillo5192]

His is long. The Black ones are short.

[@Sebastianonbass]

What strings are on this? I still have factory on mine and the string sound is just a little too high for me.

[@basstv3777]

Hey! I use Thomastik flats.Sound good to me.

[@fendersunburst4832]

That was the first thing I did when I got mine was to take off the stock Phosphorous strings as there was far too much finger noise and I replaced them with La Bella Tapewound White Nylon 750T...........50-65-85-105 which is a gauge that is close to the stock strings. Sounds great now with no finger noise and has nice mellow tones. The guy in the video has also taken the stock strings off as the original Phosphorous don't have silk wraps on the end of the strings. Actually they might be La Bellas as the silk wraps are red like mine. In my opinion Tapewounds sound better on a acoustic than Flatwounds or Roundwounds but if I couldn't get Tapewounds I would opt for Flatwounds.

[@fredparker3384]

Do u have to tweak the neck once changed to tapes??

[@mihaelguitarhero]

Amp or micorphone????????????????

[@basstv3777]

+Bass Man It´s an Amp,mic and DI. All together. Don´t forget to check the phase between the three carefully when you do this kind of setup. Have a nice day!

[@vinigretzky97]

Strings?
