106 - Bass cab roundup! / Scott giving away his FAVORITE BASS?!

lundi 11 septembre 2023 • Durée 56:38

What a stupid question, right? As bass players, there are few things more satisfying than pulling the trigger on a new bass, but would we be better served expanding our amp collections instead? Will a new amp really make your bass sound any better? In today’s episode Ian and Scott talk you through a couple of different viewpoints that will help you determine how you might spend your hard-earned money. A new bass, or a better amp?

In this podcast you're going to learn:

Why every studio has an Ampeg B-15

105 - Emergency Episode... All your burning questions

lundi 4 septembre 2023 • Durée 52:37

There’s a reason more people listen to Guns N’ Roses than Victor Wooten, and it’s not because Duff McKagan is better at playing arpeggios! But still, good technique is something that every bassist should add to their skill set, and in this episode, I’m answering all of your questions surrounding our Technique Accelerator. I hope it gives you a little extra time to check out the course – and to find your next breakthrough on the bass!

In this interview you're going to learn:

Why are we talking up our Technique Accelerator?
How I developed my own technique (with a little help from Gary Willis).
Why we’ve included a bunch of free bonuses with the course.
Why might it not be for you?

103 - Drama in the Bass Community / Why Technique is Important / Scott loses the bass of a lifetime

mardi 22 août 2023 • Durée 01:11:18

We love the bass community and will always maintain that it is THE best community in music to be a part of. BUT. Every now and then even our community members show an uglier side. In the world of content and running (online) businesses in particular, garnering hate online is almost too easy and, unfortunately, we did have a bit of a run-in with just that a little while ago.

But, lessons can be learned in every scenario and we hope you’re able to take away as much from this as we did!

In this episode you're going to learn:

Some mindsets to adopt when dealing with online hate
How haters can actually prove helpful!
How much your bass playing may actually rely on technique
And how some people actually might just ‘have it’?
How Scott ALMOST got his dream bass..?
And much, much more!

102 - What if it ISN'T a Fender? Scott Abandons the P bass! Technique is EVERYTHING!

vendredi 18 août 2023 • Durée 01:13:31

Are Fenders really the best option, especially when you’re looking to play professionally? Maybe not? In today’s podcast, we’re exploring why your bass doesn’t HAVE to be a Fender and some alternatives that can come close in sound and vibe. AND why you may not want a Fender style instrument at all! Is there such a thing as the perfect sound? The perfect bass? Can you love a sound on someone else but not yourself? Does it, in fact, actually all come down to technique, rather than the bass you’re playing?!

In this episode you're going to learn:

About some basses and bass brands that come close to the Fender style and vibe, in various budget brackets
About where you might want to look if you’re intentionally NOT going Fender
All kinds of ways of thinking about bass tone and how you might find YOUR OWN
Why Scott is turning away from the P bass?
How it all ultimately might come down to technique
And much, much more!
