Kirk Franklin - Love Theory (live at NPR Tiny Desk) (bass tab)

This tab is tuned one semitone below standard on a 5-string bass (I've had it rightfully pointed out that it's originally played two semitones below standard but in the original video you can hardly see the bass being played so I did what I could with what I had).

You were already a real one but you a real one for this one and I guess I gotta go buy a 5 string finally.

[@dxmirr]

sire p7 is easily the best 5 string for the cost

[@bonksmusic1]

ok but how does he get such great tone? do you know what gear he used? I am new to bass recording and only have a scarlett 6i6 audio interface. I am considering getting a DI box if you can recommend one

[@cursedswordsman]

Wrong, Matt tunes down a whole tone. Listen to Melodies From Heaven where he plays a low A

[@DarthMart]

I just listened to that track and yeah you're right! In my defense there weren't any shots in that video where you could really see what he was doing and he didn't go below Bb in this song. But technically yes I should have set the strings a semitone lower so thanks for letting me know. If it's any consolation, in my tuning you get to play a bunch more open strings lol

[@cursedswordsman]

@@DarthMart Appreciate the response

[@jesustobisimiaibinu2434]

is it all srings that are tuned down a tone

[@sintiapiccin]

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@user-kw5bq3of1t]

big love

[@h.b1035]

Is it still played the same as in the vid but just a tone lower?

[@DarthMart]

Yeah in the original he's tuned in A standard (2 semitones down for each string) but the camera angle was really bad to see what he was doing so I mistakenly tuned it in Bb standard (1 semitone down for each string). My tuning has the advantage of a lot more open strings and is still workable because he doesn't play a low A in this particular song (though he does later in their setlist).

[@h.b1035]

@@DarthMart thanks for the reply i had a quick go i think it will definitely take me a couple days to master.

[@edsonmakeveli7688]

Does the B string need to be tuned to Bb in this song?

[@DarthMart]

Technically I believe he's tuned down to A (as per another comment on here) but the way I tabbed it, every string is tuned down a 1/2 step from standard.

[@Noah-us6vg]

Nice Bass, but I am looking for the original Bass.

[@tlmusic2303]

Do you have this tab tune 1/2 up?

[@dynsta]

I need to.
