    A lot of Primus inspiration

      The first couple seconds are like 2 steps away from Tommy the cat's bassline

    The claypool-ness is strong with this one.

    Nice try Les Claypool but I know it's you.

  • @robscallon
    @robscallon  14 лет назад +7

    @94dhk I am actually not sure at the moment and the bass is not near me. I am not to picky with my equipment because I don't really have the money to be. I bought the bass used, and though its not the best, I did a bit of EQ on the audio and got a pretty good tone

  • @robscallon
    @robscallon  14 лет назад +8

    @AbyssTrancer much thanks! and its a carlo robelli fretless I believe and the amp is actually a guitar amp lol. I dont have the money for high end equipment, so I use what I can

    It hurts how bad I want that bass! Perfect tone and fretless sound.....I wish I could like this video 30 times!

  • @robscallon
    @robscallon  14 лет назад +14

    @ibstimpy1 I started playing about ten years ago, and yes it is definitely hard to learn at first becaue it takes so much time to build the finger strength to play it. But the music world is so flooded with guitar players that if your son does get to the point of just being able to carry a tune he'll be a shoe in for SO many bands lol

    @lgnlvngstn thanks so much for your support! and if your having trouble getting enough money for a bass, try searching for used ones, I was fortunate enough to get the bass in this video for only 100. thanks again!

    • @mkfanforever58
      @mkfanforever58 9 лет назад +5

      Why does everyone think that every slap bass line sounds like the Seinfeld Theme?

    • @trollsboggle8160
      @trollsboggle8160 9 лет назад +2

      +mkfanforever58 Because that's the slap bass that most people are exposed to and it just clicks for em i guess lol.

    • @Nino.ElectricSoul
      @Nino.ElectricSoul 9 лет назад

    too many ppl criticise this xbox generation. they say they don't listen to good classical music. I say a really great bass player can do all that and more. Had Mozart and Beethoven and Hyden had a fretless, just imagine what they would have done with it! You did excellant, plz keep on posting more. best regards Mr. P

  • @ChronoGXay
    @ChronoGXay 13 лет назад

    Here's something neat though: if you get a multiscale fretless bass, while that's a whole 'nother beast to wrangle with, once well tuned and setup, individual notes (and perhaps even barre'd chords) aren't going to go flat or sharp on your unless you let them. :D
