C minor bluesy Octaver bass practice

FavoriteLoadingAdd to favorites YouTube Preview Image

Noodling with my MXR bass octave deluxe pedal with a little talk about what I usually play when improvising over a minor tonality. I’m playing a Fender Precision 70′s bass with flatwound strings I’m “babysitting” for a friend.
Regarding “fret noise”:
Its the acoustic sound of the bass strings you hear getting picked up by the microphone, im playing with a very low volume on the amp, hence the string noise

What a coincidence! I just ordered a new MXR Octave Pedalyessterday. My old one was, well, just old and the new technology which is designed for bass frequencies unlike my old Boss pedal which was designed with the guitar in mind. I use it all of the time and you can do some rreally cool funk stuff with it. If I can ever get some video time I will submit a clip of my TC rig and new pedal in use. Thanks Thomas.

soporific: Hi guys!

Harry Popper: hi, GospelBassMan

GospelBassMan: Hello community!!

hank: Will your bass be mass produced? Do you think it will be affordable (relatively speaking) Will it be offered online for us Americans that wanna buy it?

chooty: Thank you very much.

MarloweDK: Im really not into playalongs these days, more fun (and meaningfull for me) to do original music

MarloweDK: My sig bass is going to be released at the Frankfurt musikmesse in midmarch. I dont know anything about price yet

rfarina: Hey MarloweDK! Thanks for all you do! I've gotten into more funk over the last year thanks to your lessons and playalongs. How about a playalong of December 1963 (oh What a Night) by Franki Valli and the Four Seasons?

hank: Hey Marlowe, any words on when your signature bass is being offered on the market? Any idea on the price range? Really excited about it but I've only read one article about it.

Dug: hey thomas! i was hoping to get a tutorial request from you. it from the "funky filter fun" vid you did. i would like a tutorial from the 2:45 part to the end 3:17. i luv this groove. i've learned alot from u here!!!! thanks mdk!!!
