Non-precision bass channel
Norway
Приєднався 26 гру 2020
I am Knut Follerås, an amature bass player. This is a channel created just for fun. You never know whats going to be published, and for sure, it is without 100% precision.
The channel name is inspired by my fretless Fender Precision bass that sometimes is being played without precision.

Qualidade Musical.
@@maurodecamposjunior7646 thank you Mouro!😊
This is so cool dude, you get both that smooth fretless sound, with a hint of that clank that you’d get from a regular electric bass
@@Ilovejojosbizzar thank you, and thank you for watching!😀🙏
how much to make me one
😁 I dont do that, but you can do it by your selves 👌 If you have some woodworking tools, it isn't so difficult. Thanks for watching!
Lovely. I could play Sammy Nestico all day long, he writes so well for the baritone.
@@cliffordherbert9587 Thank you Herbert😀
0:00 - 0:15 "jesus christ but why what the fuck have you done" 0:16 "oh nevermind I take it back the man slays he knows what he's doing"
vocalist is stina stenerud in the beginning of the video it says the vokalist is Stina Stenerud
how high do you have to slide until your fret fully activates.
Hi Kurt! I have "23.5 fretless frets"👍
Just so you know, a fretless bass means there are ZERO frets. You have a one fret bass.
Yeah that’s literally in the title…
@@mylesthered3614 the title says one fret fretless. 🧐if it were fretles, there would not even be one fret.👍🏼
0:34
Sorry but IMHO this bass sounds an obscenity
😅 yes its a matter of taste👍 thanks for listening!
One time i saw a kinda similar mod, the difference was bassically that the guy put one fret on the fisrt fret It does give you a different sound fr
Interesting twist on the controversial christmas classic by flipping the gender roles in Baby It's Cold outside. Great sets and excellent playing!
Thank you for listening and your thoughts!😀
diy
Totally correct! Thanks for notifying me!🙏😀
Is this bass lick your own composition or is it extracted from some other musical piece? It is really good and I would like to listen to it in a proper arrangement... really sickkk...
My composition yes. Thanks for watching!😀
Cool but why?
I hope to give thefretless some more percussive snap😀
Oh yea ok I understand
A fretless bass is cool, but it’s missing the snap of the string hitting the frets when you pop a string hard
Sounds awesome
Thank you for listening😀
Why'd you keep that one fret? Wouldn't that cause issues playing higher up the neck?
No, the 24th fret is recessed down in the finger board so the top of the fret is in level with the rest of the finger board👍 I have 23 "fretless frets"
Innovative! Great tone and funky baselines that move.
Thanks for listening Chris!
Brilliant! Fretless with just enough frets to have the metalic slap sound. Well done.
Tank you and thanks for watching!
nice playing! this was my idea back in high school to do on a carvin lb20 i wanted to have the smooth fretless finger style sound while achieving a fretted slap tone. the guy at the shop told me its possible to do but if i did the bass wouldn't stay in tune, do you know what he meant by this? i ended up just getting the whole board defretted with no regrets
I dont see any problem with tuning. But anyway, I'm happy that you are satisfied with your fretless!😀
Don't know why, but the slapping is some of the funniest stuff I've heard in a while. Haven't laughed this much in a while. This is mud territory, my man. Sounds great tho. Mudwayne vibes! Interesting, that's for sure! Great video :) Made me pick up the bass in a flash.
Axel, keep picking up your bass! Thanks for watching!😁
@axelkristensen, the slap riff is even funnier when paired with your pic 🤣 its like theme music for it
no videos up, prolly a talentless troll 😂
Amazing !
Thanks for watching!😀
Not really liking the sound at all. Slapping on a fretless sounds too muddy for me.
It is always a matter of taste👍 Thanks for watching😀
So it makes it easier to slap... But doesn't it get in the way while playing around 22. - 23. Fret and cause buzz?
Artur fret buss is no problem because the fret is recessed down in the fingerboard. I stil have the 23th note fretless👍 Thanks for watching!😀
abit slow...
I mean-it’s not too slow. You should see how slow my band plays it.
😀 Should catch thousands of likes - but - our world has gone crazy . ( I sure hope you have some good people to play with !?
Thank you Wilhelm!
Bellissima voce e interpretazione, anche la big band è al top !!!
Thank you Maurizio!😀
It’s not fretless, it has a fret.
that's such a simple but genius solution. been wondering how to get this tone myself on a fretless
Instant Tony Levin sound
It IS simply awesome. And very inspiring 🤘
How did you learn to play like that? It reminds me so much of Primus.
this is genius
Can you make a demo and play it hard with a pick?
Being able to get the slap/pop sound but then then slide the note through all those microtones sounds amazing. Like playing a bass on a midi key board with pitch bend wheel but on a real instrument. This is a genius idea and I'm now wondering why more guitar companies don't offer necks likes this.
For decades I've imagined a fretless bass with a fingerboard entirely covered with a stainless steel sheet. It would have that percussive sound, might have more sustain and clarity, and it would look amazing.
@@keithklassen5320 Alembic built one for John McVie of Fleetwood Mac. He used it on The Chain. If I remember correctly, he described it as "continuously fretted" or something like that.
That's brilliant
Thank you Curtis!
I wonder how some Primus songs would sound on this.. The tapping in “jerry was a race car driver” should sound interesting I think
Genius
I can’t tell if this is cursed, genius or both
Thats a great idea. That is the one thing that makes slap sound lifeless on a fretless, unless we’re talking about Claypool, fretless just sucks for slap and that gives it the attack that is lost without frets.
nice
Thank you Arthur!
Slappa da fretless!
Гениально!
I'm not sure you need a fret. A brass block at the end of the neck would do the trick
What a golden voice i like and love to hear it every day
Thank you! We are very happy to have Stina Stenerud with us on vocal 👌
Stina Stenerud it says at the beginning of the video Vokalist
Les clay pool would be proud. Whatever this tone is, it’s almost spot on Over The Electric Grapevine
Thank you!
That's so awesome! I'm just discovering the beauty of fretless bass, I love how fluid it sounds
The beginning sounds like pork soda
The myth is real! sounds great
Thank you🙏😊
This makes complete sense and adds back some of the attack lost when slapping a fretless. Awesome tone too. What pickups are they, and which ones were dialled in for this video?
Thank you!I used the Seymour Duncan SMB-5A alone. The Bartolini MK1 soapbar was silent. And I'm using the original Bartolini MK1 preamp in the bass👍
@@non-precisionbasschannel5007Thanks! I thought I recognised that powerful MM sound.
