[@tjgrinnell7786]

You have no idea how happy I am to find this cover with tabs, not to mention a play along. Thank you, you do great work.

[@justsomebasslines]

cheers, happy you found the channel!

[@juanlambrotta1781]

Pretty good and excelent bassline, more for masayoshi pls!!!

[@fusiongh0st736]

Nice to see my request here!

[@frankortega4280]

Interesting jazzy tune. I like the way the bass supports the Rhodes piano style playing. Nice choice.

[@DavidPavluk]

Yes!! thanks so much for your work - this is great! I would love to see some more from Masayoshi Takanaka in the future if you're up for it! 🙌

[@justsomebasslines]

sure thing, i've got stuff from all over his catalogue on my list - it's up to the luck of the draw though ;) (i pick songs off the list at random, otherwise it takes me wayyyy too long to decide what to do next, haha)

[@DavidPavluk]

@@justsomebasslines Awesome! Cheers, heres to hoping some get picked soon and, I will be enjoying all your releases regardless!

[@DavidPavluk]

​@@justsomebasslines Oh btw, I meant to ask you, are your tabs available in other digital formats or just in PDF? I am interested in joining the Patreon, but I'm most interested in getting the transcriptions in Guitar Pro or XML formats

[@justsomebasslines]

at the moment, i just have them available in PDF... i get asked about doing Guitar Pro from time to time, but i don't own it and haven't ever used it, which is why i set up a donation goal on the Ko-fi page i used to have before the Patreon, in order to cover the cost of the software/time it would take to learn how to use it and convert my tabs over to that format :) the link to that is in the description and channel page - if enough people are interested, i'd be happy to do it, though!

[@DavidPavluk]

@@justsomebasslines Ah ok, understood! no worries! It's a great software, Hopefully you can get it someday. thanks for the response!

[@BenD_Bass]

can you transcribe "Galactic Funk" by Casiopea? is a japanese fusion band from the 70s. I cant find it anywhere and i cant play by ear yet :(

[@justsomebasslines]

hey, i only take requests and viewer suggestions through Patreon at the moment, feel free to check it out

[@aminzafri5256]

how do you get this awesome thick bass tone?

[@justsomebasslines]

hey, i believe i've got mostly the bridge pup on this, tone mostly rolled off, clean DI into my DAW (Logic) and a rather chunky compressor (Platinum Bass preset on Logic, if you use it) + pretty minimal EQ on the bass signal, mostly just a smidge of low/low-mid freq boost. the rounds on this bass are rather dead too, which also helps. hope this is useful!
