Percussive Bassist -WorldRecord

ThanX

Thanx a lot.. If U search for an Indian Classical Percussion Instrument named "Kanjira" in youtube you can see the style Im trying to adapt.. Its pretty hard, I find..... Still trying to come near to it..... I will be touring UK in November /December or early 2009 with RagacatZZ. Hope I can meet some Musicians of this Forum there.....
Once again thanks for all the support............ Will buy a Warwick at the earliest!!!!!!!!!

It's not about the Warwicks ;) But they are all little tools we love to help us make our music. I really wish you'll find a nice little Warwick that suits you! And even more I wish to hear the sound you are getting with your technique from a Warwick! (a thumb would sound even pretty mudvayne'ish I think ;))

@golem

Yeah, I know. It's something that caught my eye quite a while ago :)

It kinda odd thinkin about recommending or even suggesting
a bass for Jayen. I mean, we can discuss which bass is better
for what specialty, which is most versatile, but with Jayen ....
this is World's Record speed. Little details can mean a lot.

Hopefully, on his UK tour, there will be time for an extended
visit to a very well stocked shop where he can sort it all out !

I see some basses, non-contoured bodied basses, have a
recessed area on the top, on the treble side near the neck
heel, to make room for popping. Just guessing, but I spoze
the arched top of a contoured body offers extra clearance,
less body wood nearby, on both the treble and bass sides.

Still more guessing, but I can imagine modding a Thumb BO
with long neck screws, and shims under the neck and bridge
to gain extra clearance everywhere. OK. Enuf fantasy design
exercises for an ax for a technique that I myself never even
practice. Just frying a few neurons for lunch :-)

Thanx ..thats what I really wanted to ask.... This information is helpful for me........ Yes, Im also eager to know how it will sound, if I play it on a Warwick..EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I like the new material Jayen & congratulations on the tour.

Most are pretty simple,but making them musical & then making a,living from playing that music is a different kettle of fish entirely.You should post some videos on youtube,they love,"competition".
There's always those that stand out from a very early age,but lack of modesty really doesnt do you any favours coz at some point,you stop playing & start talking.Good chops will never make up for lack of personality imo.
 
hey im sorry guys i didn't mean to offend anyone, and i know that i sound like an ass in my last reply where i said it was simple, it was late at night and i wasn't really thinking, please except my apologies

Took me a few reads to understand what you've said,or asked.But I got there in the end.
Yes,we have an automatic editing thing going on,so when you post certain swear words,they're edited.This was done by our original admin,Oliver Dominguez to discourage profanity & promote a child & family friendly forum.
I often have my 5 year old son sitting beside me when I read the forum so as a parent,it's good not having to worry about him reading words I'd prefer he didnt.
**edit.
If you'd like to test it out,you can type as many swear words as you like,then hit,"Preview",instead of,"Submit",so as not to offend or annoy the other members. :wink:
 
Hmmm... now where is my "Dictionary of Ancient Profanities"?

Odds bodikins! I can't find it... well I'll be bumswizzled! :shock:
