Except that the tone was what I was wanting, there's no fret buzz anywhere here, and it was a clip of some improvising. But of course it's easy to talk down on someone from an account with no content.
Nonconstructive feedback is just that. It is difficult to evaluate tone quality without the context of other instruments. A solo instrumentalist has the right to use any tone they feel fit because fitting in a mix is not necessary. Tone becomes an opinion. I didn’t hear the fret buzz this person was speaking of, and I found your bass lines to be appropriate for many types of music. It wasn’t overly complex, maybe some would say “uninteresting,” but if bass players played the most interesting lines, we wouldn’t be providing the foundation most musics call for. Overall, your performance is clean. If I were to give a piece of constructive feedback, I’d say it’s worth working with a metronome for sometime each day to help tighten up some of your rhythms, but keep up the great work. I say we should always be building each other up. The world has enough negativity. I also don’t have any content on my account, but I do have a PhD in music education and a masters in bass performance so I know when a person has talent and potential. You have both Mr. Cliffe, so please keep up the great work.
Thanks! I've played for 30 years or so, but I wouldn't say it's 30 years of continuous progress! Most technical learning happens in the first 2-3 years IMO. After that, some people broaden their scope, others just stay in that place!
@MartinCliffe I want to become proficient in playing bass, I am only 16 years old, do you think I can become proficient within a period of 3 years or less?
@@nibiru_official If you work hard at it, practice regularly, then sure. Finding a good teacher can help, as can getting out and playing with other musicians who are better than you.
i own 2 4 String and 1 5 String. A Fender P(J)Bass American Ultra and a Sandberg California VM4. For the 5 String an Ibanez SR 5005 ... Im fine with it, i play 99% of the time Metal or Rock... Being a Bassist is not my main job, i make money from it, but its more like a really ambitious hobby that pays itself and a little more :D ..
Hi there Martin, may I ask you a couple of questions regarding Yamaha APX - in relation to sound , any huge differences between 1200 and 1000 ? I am from UK but in Guangzhou for a year or two, I noticed it is at least 30% cheaper here, would you buy one in china? . By the by I will be in Bucharest in summer 2024 my wife is from Romania- may see you then. All the best, Patrick
I've honestly not tried the 1000, but I believe the main difference is in wood used - the 1200 is rosewood back and sides while the 1000 is maple, so should acoustically be a little brighter sounding. Probably no real difference plugged in. As long as you're buying from a legit dealer, buying in Guangzhou should be fine... or pop over the border to HK and get one in Tom Lee Music if you're in doubt. That's where I bought my natural finish one.
I have one APX700ii and I like it a lot. Once I tryed the APX1000 on a store and I didn't like one thing, the neck finish is GLOSSY instead of natural. So it's a different feeling. The 1200 for sure is a better guitar with better woods.
What are you talking about dude.the tail cost $6 american.then no batteries. Jesus how is it you have a demo... TRY SINGLE COILS. LEARN HOW TO USE A FUZZ.THE HAT,THE SHIRT,THE BACKGROUND IS STRANGE.JUST SAYIN.
I wish I could afford one just a 12 string I think the sound is so beautiful, I go into a local small music store just to play a Martin 12 string and I can barely play a 6 string..thank you 🙌🏼🎸
only thing i do not like is the battery thing 9 volt can be expensive Not for me but for some people overseas and also the way it goes in Not very easy When u play live u better get a new one 9 volts installed Preferably Duracell Great Guitar see other videos it sound great on this video by the way
i got the same guitarra got it few years back Still sound the same as the day i got ,,,,no issues,,,,quality is great.....but the best part i kno for sure is that this guitar sound better when is AMPLIFIED PROPERLY sounds excellent in our church enviroment.....sound did not change cause is already pre fabricated and dried at the factory..happy with it i only play it on special ocassions....I REPEAT SOUND DO NOT CHANGE unless is amplified different ,,,,,,,great for contemporary Christian type music 11 19 2023 go to my channeland look some of my videos with this Guitar tnks
Never played one, but the parlor body shape is different, longer and narrower, and obviously no cutaway. And the magnetic pickup would sound quite different to the piezo in the Yamaha. The Gretsch has a more conventional scale length (24" vs 22¾") too, so probably feels like a more normal guitar neck.
I like this. Not sure what it sounds like but sounds quite familiar, especially the first part. Would be good for a film showing a rising or setting sun
Cheers. Not really sure, it's just noodling around Em and Am chords mostly. Stock patch on the Krome EX (A10 Minor Hammer's - not on the stock Krome as while the patches are similar, the Combis are quite different). Guitar is clean, just a subtle delay.
