    In this video lesson, I talk about how Pino Palladino got his sound on the intro of Paul Young's, Wherever I Lay My Hat. I discuss choices of basses and effects to try to get near to Pino's sound. I also show you how to play the notes of the intro.
    This bass video tutorial is suitable for absolute beginner bass players through to intermediate bassists.
    You may want to check out my 'Bass Beginner Series'. The lessons in the series cover lots of topics for beginners, with tips on bass techniques, scales, arpeggios, pentatonic scales, and learning to read music.

    Great video Greg. Are you favouring one pickup over the other or are both wide open?

      Great thanks! This was the first bass that I put together, without any previous experience. I was worried that I might be wasting my time and money, particularly it being a fretless bass. But I was so pleased with the result and chuffed that I could get a lovely sound out of it!

    I bought a cheap 67 Hofner Senator just before this song came out and pulled its frets out as the neck was awful. This was the first tune I tried to learn on it. Vibrato that goes flat as well as sharp is an element that's hard to replicate on a fretted unless you flex the neck which sounds cool playing harmonics

      I used a product called ‘Wudtone’. It’s really simple to apply with a cloth.
      I also coloured another bass this way.

      Hi Rob. I’m actually not sure as I got it set up by a tech I know once I had put the bass together. He tweaked it while I was at his workshop.
      I play a lot of different players basses each week as part of my professional work and in general I have a lower action then most.
      Sorry I can’t help more.

    Has Pino used any Chorus in the Paul Young era (or at all)? my research only sums up to the OC-2 octaver, but the sound in his recordings is very "Chorused".

    • @GregsBassShed
      @GregsBassShed  10 месяцев назад +1

      I agree with you, personally I hear what sounds like Chorus to me on some of Pino's bass lines but he was well-known for using the OC-2.
      If you play octaves on a fretless bass then you will get a similar sound to the one you get with a chorus pedal. That may be happening on some of his bass lines but there could have been so many effects added at the studio as well when they were recording.
      My video lesson on fretless bass explains more about that 'chorus effect' with 5ths and octaves towards the end: ruclips.net/video/4O6YQhZ8ies/видео.html

      Hi Rossco did you watch the lesson all the way through? You might have missed the part where I talk about bass choices and what Pino used.
      The idea of this video is to show how to get that fretless sound using certain techniques NOT how to get the exact tone. You need to be Pino to do that!
