P Bass vs Jazz Bass Flatwound string tone test (Bass Chat No:5)

#gavinforbesmusic #pbass #jazzbass #flatwoundstrings


I hope you enjoy this video all about the sound of flatwound strings on jazz and precision basses! Today we look at just how different your fingers, a pick, palm muting, slap and even drive and fuzz pedals sound on both instruments!

Both the Fender jazz bass and Squier P bass in the video are strung up with heavily played in Rotosound Jazz 77 flatwound strings for the best representation of their classic tone.
As well as this, the mixing on the bass tracks was kept to a minimum to give the truest representation of the sounds used.


Other gear in the video:

•Korg Pitchblack tuner pedal
•Boss OD3 overdrive pedal
•GojiraFx Sub Dark fuzz pedal
•Cioks DC7 power supply
•Practical Patch custom cables
•Eden WTDI preamp pedal



Drums are samples in Ableton controlled via the Roland TR8.

Song in the background is my song ‘41Hertz’. To hear the song without me talking over it you can listen hear:    • 41 Hertz (Music Video) Bass Led Arrangement
