  • Over the years I’ve featured just about every type of bass guitar imaginable in my UA-cam videos - I have some amazing instruments and I’m lucky to have them, but which one is my fave?
    I get a ton of questions asking about the different basses that I play, and so I decided it was high time I made a new video showing you my collection to date.
    And so, for your pleasure, I present some of my all-time favourite bass guitars!
    As always, see you in the shed…
    Scott :)

      Scott was also like that when he started out on UA-cam as he always strived to put up as much educational content up on UA-cam as he could... Then after a year's of doing this he decided to get his own educational website up & running outwith UA-cam & as he has always said " It's All about The Bass "
      Apart from enjoying & admiring the way he went about constructing his UA-cam Videos/which was his early attempt of everything you'll see on UA-cam & then his Website, I've always liked Scott for his honesty & that's a rare commodity on UA-cam & then also on his Own Official Website...
      No airs or graces, just getting down to putting out great overall content for intermediate, beginner & advanced player's, all the while trying different approaches, but above all making it Educational in ways that it is easy for beginners to get to grips with but above making it Enjoyable also... As what's the point of playing an instrument if your not having fun also...
      All The Best... And keep on playing as we need the youth of today to keep on learning & playing & then passing this on to the next generation so that these instruments & music in general doesn't wither away into nothing worth investing one's time in...
      As that's what i've always strived to do when replying to comments here on UA-cam as it's easy to run someone down but that's not my style & even if said person is playing in any genres I'm not that keen on or I find they are being rude, I still try to give them positive feedback because as long as they are playing I can take a few blows for the team & it's overall goal of taking music & learning instruments forward, rather than just sit back watch it's demise...

    Your collection is wonderful and quite eclectic.. If I could run off with one, that Marcus Miller sounds and looks gorgeous. I have to go with that. Plus, the kid in me loves all of the knobs, even if I don’t know what they do exactly.
    My bass is beginner friendly, only two knobs. I picked up a used Johnson [by AXL] at my local guitar shop. I’m quite happy with its rich sound, but I’m definitely looking into Sire for my next addition. 😊

    The Sire bass is the one I would like to have. I play a huge variety of music and my Ibanez BTB 1405 is a very versatile bass but the Sire speaks to me lol. You Rock Bro!!

    Thanks. That was a cool video. I tried to pick just one bass to be 'my instrument', but, you gotta have a few. My top choices are Ibanez Portamento and NS CR4.

    I would have that gorgeous BNF Fretless 4 string at 5:36, i was looking to soon get an Ibanez SRF700 Portamento, but that BNF is breathtaking.

    They all sound awesome, but that Stenback is killer. My favorite tone of yours.
