This is the first version of the Allemande on bass I've found and it beats any Bach Suites played on frettless bass i've seen on youtube, beautiful intonation.
Congrats Sir ! Impressing playing ! Sounds so natural and easy when you play this piece ! Love it ! Keep safe and Keep it up ! Best regards Luc, France 🇫🇷
Brilliant playing and amazing idea to play Cello suite 1 on bass. I see complex positions for fingers from time to time. Don't you think to tune a bass by all 5th intervals instead of all 4th ?
I tried it once, it was still not that comfortable, I think if I was to use open strings then 5ths would help a lot, but some.of.the chords with that tuning would still be difficult. I think also playing it on fretless has given some extra difficult
I see fender jb in background! How can you compare this Ibanez and fender in term of quality of sound? Is it possible to play Bach on fender jb with let’s say muting a string near a bridge in order to emulate acoustic sound ?
Very different basses, not only one fretless and the other one not. But also one has a hollow body and piezo pickups. So for me the fretless has a sound closer to a double bass. Really nice round sound, not the best sustain comparable with other basses because of the pickups, but I like it. The fender has a lot more of a modern bass sound, active pickups, good for slap bass, funk bass, playing chords.
Basically, I have JB. But I like Bach suites and it seems to me fretless holoybody is ideal choose based on your recording ! Thanks a lot for your work !
Thanks for the video! Great control over the fingerboard. Perhaps it's time to take some liberty when playing the low notes by sustaining them a bit and decelerating the approach and getting back into the tempo. Like the last note of the piece but of course not so long and not with the chords.
I'm not 100% sure I have never tried them yet, but from having heard those strings on other basses, I would imagine it would get even more of a upright bass sound. But still what I have found with this bass is that it lacks a little bit on sustain, compared to other style of fretless bass because of it pick ups. But maybe someone else from chat can tell us more
I can try it out, me personally feel like I have more control and different tones with my fingers, but now that I am studying another movement I will try with a pick
@@WyattLite-n-inn I actually tried a little with a pic, and ehat I felt is that the sound ended up sounding to metallic, and had a hard time trying to make frases sound legato. But well it was a good experiment, just not the sound I was looking for.
The instrument sound doesn't seem to fit the piece at all. I'd give you high marks for intonation and dynamics, phrasing is middling. I don't know where exactly I am each phrase (despite knowing this piece!), but in turn that may have to do with the fast decay of this sound you're playing with. I actually just got the SRF705 but I can't play it at all yet, just giving some honest feedback.

thank you, I enjoyed a lot studying it and playing it. And I think there is still a world to improve to play it well yet. Thank you for the kind words.

Delightfully baroque
This is the first version of the Allemande on bass I've found and it beats any Bach Suites played on frettless bass i've seen on youtube, beautiful intonation.
Thanks!! Glad you liked. There's some really good ones I have found, but usually is with fretted basses.
Beautiful! I love what you are doing with this bass!

I like your style homie!

Your rubato is the telltale sign of superior musicianship...well done!
Thank you so much! I actually felt that I need to work on that, but still thank you
I have the same bass! Great playing Bruno!!!

^^ 잘 들었습니다.

You do this amazing Bach tunes with fretless bass? You are sir, a very good musician
Thanks, it's been a process, I think there's a lot to improve with this pieces but I definitely been enjoying putting them together

@@konstantin7869 you are welcome, are you thinking on buying one of those?

Hinis that short scale? Beautiful
No, it’s a 34”.
Thanks for the video!

Like the last note of the piece but of course not so long and not with the chords.
I think you are right, I do think I could hold on more those long low notes, thank you for the feed back.
De huevos man!
Gracias Héctor, tú haz seguido tocando?
what if ya had flat wound tape wound strings

What strings do you use?
I am not sure, they are still the original strings the bass came with. So they are flat strings Ibanez srh500f. I hope that helps
@@BrunoLimenes it does. They are D’Addario Chromes I believe
@@cliffburton333 Awesome! Now I know which one to buy to change the same sound. Thank you!
I don’t think Bach will be rushing back to write a piece for the fretless bass. 😢
Fretless basses like the plectrum. Will sound much better with a pick than with the flesh.
I can try it out, me personally feel like I have more control and different tones with my fingers, but now that I am studying another movement I will try with a pick
@@BrunoLimenes It sounds great finger-style. Never mind the pick
