Was going to record only a clip but with the vibe in the room I ended up recording the whole song. Holding the camera with arms stretched up for so long was quite a challenge though! All worth it

Listen to more upright basses

@@kingstonlord8679Sure, not the same. TI market the strings as those that sound most like an upright. From the two flats, one half-wound and one tape-wound I’ve tried, I reckon the TI’s are indeed the most like an upright so far. The shorter scale and solid body of an electric fretless could never fully substitute, whatever the strings are.

@@DaisyXbearsXplays14 Put a treat on the floor quite far away and every time she immediately moves towards it pick it up and start again with her sitting down. Eventually she will pause just a few seconds after putting the treat down, at which point you pick it up and give it to her straight away with lots of praise. Then work on lengthening the pause and then adding the second with the move and finally the third. It might take weeks or months. Good luck

Shadows and Light soundtrack and video are available

Thanks. Added details in description.

@@stephenbornemann1778 Hey Stephen, thanks. Sorry to be a PITA...can you tell me what brand(s) of chorus/delay you use? Im getting ready to make a purchase, your tone is amazing. TY

@@MJ98774 For live, I use MXR Bass Chorus Deluxe and Reverb. For studio (like this video), I use Logic Chorus and Fabfilter R2 (but the Logic reverbs are quite good too - GarageBand probably uses the same Chorus and reverbs as Logic).

@@MJ98774 The key thing is the action and how the strings are plucked more than the effects. I've recently changed strings to tapes to get more mids and posted a short comparison video recently - I now prefer them. Soon I'll try some half rounds to see how they are before settling on a set for a while.

@@stephenbornemann1778 Thanks for the detailed post. Screenshotted and saved. Will watch that comparison video as well. Great playing and explanation.

Thanks for the comment. We seem to be in a minority. However, I've recently switched to La Bella While Nylon Gold light gauge and love the tone as well as the protection of the fingerboard. Best of both worlds really. Will post a comparison soon.

@@stephenbornemann1778 A comparison of the 2 types of strings would be interesting Stephen.Meanwhile i will research the Labella strings you mentioned.Good luck.

@@stephenbornemann1778 I have the LaBellas you mentioned on my fretless V7. They are nice, if not a touch noodly.

@@prestachuck2867 Agreed

Sure. You’ll see on previous threads, it’s all about how gently one plays. Gary Willis is a top player who does this and his instruments last for years. He told me this on a live Q&A on SBL and it surprised me too. He probably has the luxury of getting them serviced regularly though. It was an experiment. I am now trying La Bella While Nylon Tape Gold light gauge and am getting a tone more like Gary Willis that way. I plan to post a video on those strings soon. I’m super impressed with them so far.

@@stephenbornemann1778 Didn't know that Gary Willis use rounds! Yes maybe its about technique too , and also to try playing more soft than usual. Imho flats fit the most , though nylon string would be nice too ! I'd like to see a vid ! cheers

@@johnkostelidis8163 Flats are very dark - perfect if all one wants is the fundamental low end. The Gold tapes have way more mwah in the mid-range, which I like

Thanks man! Appreciate it

D'Addario Chrome flats on this. Very dark. Trying La Bella Gold Tapes right now and getting way more mids like Gary Willis

I had to try it to see if it got closer to the Gary Willis sound. I confess, I’ve gone back to flats, boosting the high mids. The benefit of using round-wounds isn’t quite worth it on my bass.

@@stephenbornemann1778 you can always try nickel flats for that slightly brighter tone with more attack

@@prodtfm Am using La Bella White Nylon Gold Tapes Light Gauge right now and am very happy with them. Will try D’Addarrio half rounds too soon to compare. I understand these are brighter than flats. Please let me know if the nickel flats are as bright or brighter than these two alternatives

@@stephenbornemann1778from my understanding and experience nickel as a tone metal is a lot brighter than steel. i believe the half rounds are bright, but the nickel flats will be brighter. not only that but nickel is a lot softer than steel so it will also be a lot safer on your fret board. I have no experience with nylon bass strings however from my understanding they are “bright” since they are just steel roundwounds covered with nylon. however hypothetically nickel or cobalt will be the brightest flatwound

@@prodtfm Thanks. After search on the web, I suspect TI Jazz Flatwound is the only option worth considering. Is that correct?

Thanks. I remember the first time I heard this. It still brings a tear to my eye.

Great job Stephan👍🏼thanks for sharing with us!I saw &met Jaco@my HS in’72 when he was playing with Wayne Cochran &CC Riders.Still resonates with me to this Day☀️

Thanks. It's a Sire Marcus Miller v7 alder body - and use the low B string for other tunes
