Thanks for this overview, Harley! I just got a Stagg (an 81st birthday present!!) and I can tell right away that it will be a considerable learning curve. I'm a very amateur player, but adequate for jams and I usually play a standard 4-string Fender, or a 3/4 length, or a great little UBass I take out to other jams, because it's so light and sounds unexpectedly good! But I've wanted an upright for 20 years, and my wife told me she'd buy one for my birthday, so here it is. Months of practice will be needed to figure out where all the notes are relative to a fretless I also play sometimes, but I'm looking forward to it! Thanks again!

Thank you for the comment and for subscribing to our channel! Adjusting to an upright after a lifetime of playing a traditional fretted bass is a bit of a challenge, but youll find its fun and more of a technique thing. Keep on playin! Dont give up!

I’m planning on getting one of these soon. After tax and warranty I’m gonna have to pay 800, luckily I’m spoiled asf so I got 500 for my birthday. Also now that I’m 14 I can get a job, so once I get one I’ll be able to afford it. Looks and sounds awesome, thanks for the helpful video, CANNOT wait to get mine!

Thanks for the comment and for subscribing to the channel! Youll really love the bass....and earning and saving up will make you love it more! Anything unearned is unappreciated! Well done!

Recently ordered one to dip my toe into upright after many years as a bass guitarist. Looking forward to learning what, in many respects, will be an entirely new instrument.

Thanks for the comment and for subscribing to the channel! Im sure you will love it once you get the hang of it! I hope you bought it from a Independent music shop and not some Billion dollar corporation!

Got the Dean electric upright bass and it's the same thing.. just more expensive.. go for the stagg you won't regret it!! its a fun bass that feel and sound good...

[@MainStageMusicTV]

Thanks for the comment! We were also Dean dealers, and honestly, I completely agree. The Stagg really delivers! Thanks for subscribing to our channel!

That’s cool. Wish I could get one.

[@MainStageMusicTV]

Cmon down Skip! Im sure we can find a way for you to get one!

[@ricecake9740]

I’m looking into buying one and this video is great help. I play electric and this is a challenge I want to take on!

That honey color is cheaper! I just got one for $650. End pin will rattle on you, easiest fix…take thumb screw out and thread it into fitting on back of body to hold pin tight against inside of body.

Thanks for the comment and for subscribing! Thanks for the advice on the pin, although Ive not experienced that issue.

I would be so mad if this was all we could get. This doesn’t sound anything like an actual upright at all. If u save up all you can and get a Yamaha silent bass

[@MainStageMusicTV]

Thanks for the comment and for subscribing to the channel! Only an actual Upright Bass will give you the 'true' tone and presence of an upright bass! No argument there. That being said, this is a respectable alternative. In this video I wasnt using any EQ or preamp that would also likely help sculpt the tone. Anyways, I appreciate the discourse

They make pitch correction software LOL. Great and informative otherwise. Thank you!

[@MainStageMusicTV]

Hey! Thanks for the comment and for subscribing to the channel! I no doubt need professional bassists with perfect pitch to help out with my videos....but alas, Im the only one who showed up! LOL I'll practice more! Thanks for the feedback!

Your way out of tune

[@MainStageMusicTV]

Thanks for the comment and for subscribing to the channel! Yeah, the problem with doing 'live streams' is that there isnt the luxury of correcting little issue like that! But hey! I appreciate you pointing it out....it will help me 'be better' for next time! (BTW its 'You're' not 'Your' LOL)
