    I don't see enough comments about this guy's fantastic intonation on a fretless. I've been playing for over 20 years and recently starting getting into fretless, really makes me appreciate the ability to play these complex riffs and stay in tune the entire time.

    • @MrRevertis
      @MrRevertis 6 лет назад +27

      Hopefully not to take anything away from his incredible skill, but is this more impressive than a skilled player of a violin, cello, double bass or any other fretless instrument? I'm genuinely asking, I don't play an instrument.

    • @zyrelia11
      @zyrelia11 6 лет назад +33

      No. It all comes down to muscle memory and a lot of practice. He is using all the same techniques with his hand that a violin/viola/cello/bass player would use, where his thumb is his 'anchor' and he is going in between many different positions on the neck of the instrument.

    • @TM-tc1il
      @TM-tc1il 6 лет назад +34

      One difference being that his hands will tend to move over a greater distance than a cellist or violinist , so there's inherently a greater window for error for the average song. The fingerboard of a violinist is going to be like 1/3 the size of this, and the average playing range is about 1/4. This does two things. Firstly, the violin requires more finger precision, because the keys are going to be compacted, so moving your finger an inch up or down with change the note much more on the violin than the base. But, because everything's closer together, you don't have to jump your hand around as much, and it's easier to plan out your incremental movements than those big slides and big jumps. So it's a balance. Which one is harder? Hard to say for sure, but tonal shifts of the scale that are occurring in what here is a fun little piece for the bassist would be significantly more difficult on a cello, and shifts w/ precision that are fairly rudimentary on a cello or violin would be much more difficult on this bass. I use Cello because tonally it's a closer corollary to a bass guitar than a violin is, it's basically got the same strings, A/D/G/C, but the violin has a different setup, E/A/D/G. That looks similar, but it's like the difference between a female alto or soprano singer, and a male bass singer. Some overlap, but different enough that their parts are decidedly different.

    • @d1rcwill
      @d1rcwill 6 лет назад +34

      Cello is a good comparison, because you turn it sideways, and CE-LLLO you've got a bass.

      He's not just thumbing and forefingering. He's muting a lot of notes with back of his right hand. His dynamics are impeccable. There may be some effects on the signal but, he's playing so fast, it's hard to tell.
      I wonder what the brand name is on the bass.
      I've got a 5 string, fretless, Ibanez piezo bass. I'm not as fast but, with compression and chorus, it sounds ultra cool.

    • @arthurmee

      He may have been a guitar player. When I picked up the bass, as a guitar player I wanted to use my thumb and fingers in a manner similar to this but I taught myself to use my plucking hand the traditional bass player way.I still find myself reverting to the guitar way sometimes. Muscle memory fades slowly.

  • @Zmargo702
    @Zmargo702 4 года назад +70

    Speaking as a violist of about 8 years, we all (most of us) start learning with finger tapes. Its essentially tape on frets. Youll see them alot on beginner players or just some people who struggle with intonation. After about 1-2 years, or however long the player needs, we take them off. We’re not just fretless and free day one.

    • @c.r.bouton1842
      @c.r.bouton1842 4 года назад +7

      Agree with you here. I've been playing cello for almost six years, and we all outgrow the need for finger tapes because we're so used to playing the notes that we don't need to look at the instrument to find them. We just know.

    This is the best technique to slap on a fretless. No thumbing on the strings that can scratch the neck.

    Subscribed for sure... Bro, I've listended to this jam at least a dozen times today and it never gets old. I played bass for about 5 years and got a bit into slap bass but your mute technique, and well, everything... is simply incredible. I'm glad the world has musicians like you. I hope you bring many more years of joy to the world with your music. Much respect.
