That bass sounding so different in the hands of so many different teachers in a real lesson in not needing different equipment to be a better musician. If David Allen Moore and Danny Ziemann and John Goldsby and Joseph Conyers and Katie Thiroux can all have their own distinctive sound on Geoff Chalmer’s bass, then it really all is in the hands and fingers of the players.
It's been so much fun to see this happen on my bass. John Goldsby, Joe Conyers and David Allen Moore were all using the same set of Spirocore Weichs and all sounded so unique! It's been a good reminder for me to stop drooling over new basses and get in the practice room! :-)
On recording and listening back: I’ve just bought a loop pedal just for this. I used to record, then stop and switch cables to play back. Now I have the loop pedal connected to studio monitors, and I play, and then listen immediately to the the loop back. If I’m playing Arco, I can use a mic, if jazz, then using the pickup is easy. The feedback is so instantaneous and humbling.
Great advice!
I listened to this one morning and then won an orchestral audition later the same day

Tremendously wonderful!!!!!
Great interview. And what a beautiful bass sound!
Thanks Bruno! We were knocked out by the sound Joe gets from the bass. It's so clear, but with a real warmth and character.
Thank you!
His play, I love. Thank you, good explain.

What does he play in the end? (brilliantly)
It's an excerpt from Mozart's Symphony No. 39, (mvt. I, mm. 40-97).
