    The Bass VI is the most underrated most versatile instrument ever. I bought my SRC6 after seeing your early video on it. I don't use it as often as I should as it's a remarkable piece of kit

    It’s criminal that I can only ‘like’ this video once! This is awesome, literally evocative of the sensation of profound awe. Anyone who has experienced vast natural spaces and the phenomena such spaces contain knows such feelings. I am so glad that I have discovered your channel, sir! Thanks to you, the creative output for the remainder of my life can now have a musical underlay. I wanted to get into ambient music and will now postpone the midi controller and ante-up for that 6 string Ibanez bass. It won’t be like the beast your playing here, because I’m having trouble finding it… But I can get a SR 306eb in weathered black… It’s a start! Kudos!

    I have used my Aria fretless bass (medium scale) to produce some interesting ambient tones - sometimes in combination with the Gretsch guitar using a looper - it can produce some very interesting bass drones.

    ahh, Iridium is a total win to wrap up the character for this endeavour :))) , BTW:
    If you'd add some waveform modulation, preferably from any kind of wavetable (considering ambient soundscapeing), that would make a potent sample, which you can upload for a few bucks to synth sample sites, that could also add at least something to your 11 month plan. ;)
    May I ask: What is / are the unit(s) on desk behind your right shoulder, below the monitors?

    hello mate you could consider writing ambient music for video games, im playing a game now with ambient music that is similar to this but honestly its nowhere near as good as this, game developers could use your help - also movie soundtracks. start with reaching out to independent developers and producers if you are interested!

    Bill,
    I thought you said once that Ebows had difficulty exciting massive bass strings...are you hammering the strings down with the volume pedal "to zero" to get the string going then fade volume up and Ebow just has to maintain the momentum?

      An Ebow, short for electronic bow. It uses a battery to generate a magnetic field that causes the string to vibrate without being plucked, resembling a violin's smooth sound from the use of a bow.
