Fender Japan PB70 Precision Bass with LaBella Flatwounds
Переглядів 1812 місяці тому
Taking my recently acquired 2000 Fender Japan PB70 for a spin! . I love this bass! It’s a modest 7 lbs 15 oz and resonates beautifully 🤌🏻 I replaced the stock pickup with an overwound Lollar P and strung it with LaBella flatwounds. Testing out the tones with a little drive from an Aguilar Tone Hammer Preamp/DI. Sounding killer! . Song: Control Artist: Mutemath . . . Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN THE...
Jazz Bass Pickups Comparison / Aguilar AG 4J-60 / DiMarzio DP123 Model J

In this video, I’m comparing the Aguilar AG 4J-60 and DiMarzio DP123 Model J pickups. I wanted to replace the stock pickups in my Squier Classic Vibe 60s Jazz Bass and put these two sets to the test to see which one I liked best. The Aguilar pickups are designed to reproduce the warmth and clarity of Jazz Bass pickups from the 1960’s. Similarly, the DiMarzio pickups are designed to reproduce vi...

Replacing stock Fender flatwounds on a Fender Justin Meldal-Johnsen Signature Road Worn Mustang Bass with La Bella 760F-MUS flatwounds. These strings are specifically designed by La Bella for a string-through-body Mustang-style short scale bass. This is a side by side comparison of these two sets using the same playing example over a variety of tones and playing techniques in order to provide a...

Digging in to the groovy playing of Stax bassist Donald “Duck” Dunn. He wasn’t an improvisational virtuoso like Jamerson at Motown, but he had a deep pocket and a highly syncopated style. His lines were mostly simple and supportive, but they had a soulful bounce which makes them feel great and fun to play.

Thank you for this video. I’m about to pull the trigger on the Aguilar pups.
Hope you enjoy them!
That JMJ is pretty amazing. Just got some La Bella for my short scale (a Squier Paranormal Rascal) and it sounds VERY good.
Short scales love La Bella flats!
@@stephenboutwell1012 I completely agree!
nice bass!
@@DanielDaciuk-u9c Thanks! 🙏🏻
Amazing playing, tasty sound👍
Wow! Regards from Brazil
Obrigado! 🙏🏻
What Fx are you using?
Just a stock chorus plugin inside Logic 👍🏻
@@stephenboutwell1012 Wow! Very nice.
I love the Dimarzio sound! Wow I want to upgrade my Squier and this video helped a lot!
I made this for you, then! Thanks! 🙏🏻
Very nice. I like both. Looks like I need to buy 2 Mustangs!
Ha! Why not? Ironically, I just sold mine. Will probably regret it!
I'm curious about the strings
Elixir stainless steel Nanoweb 👍🏻
Awesome performance have been a fan of your channel have a great day also happy Halloween ❤😊
Hey! Thanks very much! 🙏🏻
Is the actual this complicated, or is this an arrangement? If it's actually this complicated, that's amazing.
This the actual recorded bass line. It was challenging to learn, especially the diminished figure before each chorus 😮💨
@@stephenboutwell1012 Awesome playing, cheers.
@@FrankBatistaElJibaro Thank you! 🙏🏻
Killer Bass
Thanks! 🙏🏻
@@stephenboutwell1012 I'm a Bassist and I've always wanted a fretless. I have my Fender Precision and my Ibanez, love them both, I've been shopping around for a good 5 string, almost want to go fretless instead. I haven't checked out your performance yet but I will, Pino is an amazing Bassist right up there with Jaco.
@@stephenboutwell1012 ohh my Lord brother I'm watching your performance at this very moment and it's giving me goosebumps, outstanding bro! Apparently Leland Sklar absolutely loves this player. Your Bass Sounds Killer! What are you playing thru? Thanks 👋
@@stephenboutwell1012 I need to get a fretless and learn this line!
@@josephnaja Thanks very much! Just playing the bass straight into my audio interface with some chorus effect from the recording software. Playing with the bridge pickup only with some low-mids boosted and treble rolled off. Flatwound strings as well.
woah what a niche rabbit hole im on. this is amazing bro. just found this song from the chillhop yearmix 2021
@@ImPrismuh Thanks very much! 🙏🏻
What kind of effecters are you using at this video?
Just a little chorus from my recording software 👍🏻
@@stephenboutwell1012 Thanks!It's beautiful tone.
Excellent. I have one of those basses on order. Do they come with flatwounds or roundwounds?
Came stock with flatwounds. Not sure what brand, though. I put a set of nickel Elixir roundwounds on mine. Warm and smooth!
Yeah they sound good whatever you're using. Thanks for the info 👌🏻
LaBella Tone 0% : the pure essence of fundamental bass tone.
Can’t argue with that!
Great playing again! I'm also thinking about buying a JMJ as an addition to my P-basses. How do you like the bass after all?
@@matthiasmilles788 I LOVED IT! The JMJ is probably the coolest bass I’ve ever owned. That being said, I wasn’t playing it as much as my others because I wasn’t really hearing MY voice through it. I recently sold it and will probably regret, but for short scale basses, it’s #1!
@@stephenboutwell1012 Thank you for your answer. That's exactly what I'm afraid of. I'm a die-hard P-Bass player and it could also be that the sound of the Mustang is not the one I want to use more often. But I think I'll give the bass a try and maybe use it more as a source of inspiration. Besides, I have a 10-year-old daughter who I might be able to seduce into playing bass with the shortscale ;-) So have fun with the other beautiful basses you own and I'm looking forward to more videos from you. By the way: The 76 P-Bass is great and this Bluesman Deville sounds great too!
@@matthiasmilles788 Wow, thanks so much. The Mustang is for sure close to a P-Bass and very inspiring to play. It makes a great student bass! Hope she warms up to it!
@@matthiasmilles788 If you do decide to get one, they hold value very well and will sell easily if you decide you don’t want to keep it. I had mine listed for one day before it sold!
great playing and great sound!
@@matthiasmilles788 Thanks! 🙏🏻
I like them both and use Chromes
My first flats were a set of Chromes that I used for years and loved them. The only reason I switched is because I broke one of the strings! Also wanted to see how another brand would sound. Just have to keep them on for so long before they really settle in!
Aguilar on bridge has more sort of grrr sound. (i like it)
Yes! The Aguilar bridge has a little more "nose" than the DiMarzio.
Interestingly, I found that the finger style sound of the Labella's at 100% on the tone knob sounded like a louder variation of the picked sound you got out of the Fender strings.
Nice catch! I think the LaBella’s have a more pronounced midrange while the Fender’s have a stronger low fundamental with less midrange. The pick is the only thing bringing out the midrange in the Fender’s which is how I could see it sounding similar. I actually prefer the picked Fender’s over the picked La Bella’s.
9050s live in between the good thumpy flats and the bell tone flats like TIs and LaBellas. I like the Fenders on PBasses but thats about it. The LaBellas are wonderful on your Mustang!
@@oldasrocks9121 Thanks! They came stock on the Mustang. Never had them on a P bass, though. They seemed to have good, low fundamental which I liked but lacked the mid-range punch of the LaBellas. The 9050s were fine, just not my style. However, when it came to a muted pick sound, I liked the 9050s better.
@@stephenboutwell1012 My favorite thumpy flats are the DR Legends. Ernie Ball Cobalt flats live in this odd spot between flats and round wounds, flats for feel rounds for sound. But not quite like rounds sound wise. I have them on my jazz bass with foam mutes between the string pairs. They need cleaned regularly, the develop a rough-ish patchy corrosion but a swipe of Albolene with a good wipe after has fended that stuff off so far after it first developed. I keep them on but I'm still asking myself "do I like these?" Bandmates do so there's that.
@@oldasrocks9121 Interesting about the DR Legends. I have a set of those as well that used for a time. Here’s a cover of Bernadette I used them on: ua-cam.com/video/Y05RjbG1ML0/v-deo.htmlsi=54oTu4IBDudh300L I hear what you mean about the thumpy-ness, though I didn’t notice it at the time. Never played Cobalt flats but did play a set of D’addario Chromes for years. Aptly named, even after they broke in, they retained a glassy smoothness and clarity that I really liked.
With roundwounds that are a year old and using a compressors well there isn't as much if a difference in sound between rounds and flats as there could be. Considering these things the tone control provides more of a difference in sound than old dead rounds vs flats.
9050L's are Fender flat wounds
both sound great! can i ask if you were mic'ng an amp, running direct or using an amp sim?
Thanks! Recorded direct. Bass > Cali76 Compact Bass > Scarlet 2i2 > Roland GO:Mixer Pro > iPhone
It says in the video that he recorded it directly…

@@Vetea19 Sweet 👌🏻
Beautiful playing! I have never craved having a fretless until now. 😮
They’re fun! 🤩
@@toddwalker4301 me too lol
Beautiful playing mate greetings from Australia 🇦🇺 👍
Cheers!
Thanks. I needed to see and hear this slowly. Now it's time to get to work...
Glad it was helpful!
Hell yes, played with a pick like a MAN
Ha! Thanks! 🙏🏻
Killer tone. Mustangs have so much midrange presence and deserve more love. Plus Sting’s a badass bassist.
Yes! Such fun to play. Sting's lines are always so musical. Thanks!
It's got to be played on a fretless Music Man Stingray.
Agreed! 👍🏻
Stephen what effects did you use ? What Chorus pedal and settings ? Great song and great playing by you .. and Pino 🤙
Hi! No pedal. I just used a stock chorus plugin in Logic. Thanks!
Good stuff.
Thanks! 🙏🏻
Nice job, sir. It was the bass that actually drew me to this song in the first place 30 years ago. Completely makes the song aside from Paul Young's voice.
Thank you! 🙏🏻
Неуверенно как-то звучит... У Марты (@martabass92) гораздо лучше.
It was a tough one to learn, for sure. And yes, Marta's cover is exemplary!
That was epic 😊
Thanks! 🙏🏻
Any way to get tabs for this?
Sounds like James Brown :)
For sure! Planning to cover some JB soon!
Iden ❤
I luv this song sm, good job!!
Me, too 😊 Thanks so much 🙏🏻
This is a great example of a song is defined by its bass line. It's always nice to hear the fretless bass in a pop song, and you play this Pino-Perfect :)
Wow! Thank you! 🙏 Pino knows how to make his parts definitive, for sure!
I used to be so obsessed with this song came out. I took up bass in the last year and just heard this song again and realized it’s so awesome because it’s so bass driven! Gonna try sounding this one out!
Same. Still a little obsessed with it 😆 Such a great band with plenty of bass-driven songs!
How are you blending the pickups if you dont mind me asking?? Sounds fantastic!!!
Thanks! 🙏🏻 This bass has two Lollar Thunderbird pickups. Both are on full with tone wide open and heavy compression. Also, it was strung BEAD.
