HELLO EVERYONE THANK YUO AGAIN FOR YOURS KIND WORDS! take a look to this new video with the same HB bass & Please subscribe! ua-cam.com/video/yFKz8u-foio/v-deo.html
Absolutely killer playing, sir -- it's rare to hear that kind of virtuosity on the fretless here on UA-cam. Exceptional. And any Harley Benton review I've seen has been ecstatic with praise for the instruments. This bass sounds ridiculously good. Shaking my head at their prices.
What a blast and the best is that you got a heavenly sound with a "cheap" bass. Very good ,bro. You got the groove. (Fretless Bass is a must for me. When it hits you, you don't want to play fretted basses anymore.)
Thank you guys & girls !!! more than 20k views means a lot to me. If you wanna help me to keep making music please ..."buy me a coffe" here www.buymeacoffee.com/midemam/smooth-jazz-fretless-bass THANK YOU AGAIN! ....and don't forget to subscribe ;)
@@Midemabass how do you like the feel of the neck? I'm building a bass at home and can't find a fretless neck for less than $250, but this costs $175 for the whole thing. I might just buy it to rip off the neck and bolt it onto something else. thanks and great job
Thank you everyone for your appreciation. I made another video with the same backing track but tha acoustic fretless version of Harley Benton. another great cheap bass! take a look. Thank you!
Wow. This is gold. And I used to be spoiled by watching Michael Arnopol play from 8-feet away at the legendary Green Mill in Chicago… This very much reminds me of something he might play. … on the upright! And with 30-years of experience. Super smooth, mate. 👍
Honestly, they are incredible at any price point. They are very affordable, but definitely not cheaply made. I play mine all the time. A lot more than my much more expensive basses.
Outstanding! I have listened to this solo at least 10-times and I continue to press replay! I started learning bass 4-years ago after playing keyboard 40-yrs. The fretless sound (especially with smooth jazz and jazz fusion) is what tugs at my heart. I may not ever sound this good, but you give me a wonderful goal to strive for--your intonation and nuances are spot-on. Thanks for sharing. Peace.
Wow great playing! smooth and relaxing, im looking into a fretless jazz base too, and a p bass to replace my off brand old PJ bass. I played a fretless for a while at a studio when I was a studio musician it was really nice.
Bravissimo. Io impazzirei con il filo della cuffia contro la mano sinistra, quando scendi verso il fondo del manico. Belle frasi e bel timing e intonazione.
Wow! I hope Harley Benton is sponsoring this guy?! If not they should be!! What strings are you playing? Flats? Also feel free to comment on amp, settings (pickup, tone and amp) etc... This will most likely be my next bass purchase??
Hi Mark. No sponsor unfortunately . strings are roundwound by Ernie Ball \ no amp \ 60% neck pu + 100% bridge pick up \ tone at 50% \ a little bit of reverb from the DAW \ Markbass head . Bye
Greetings friend!! the best freetles solo!! Friend, I'm about to buy this Freetles....could you help me if it's the FL40 model or the FL75 model, thank you very much friend!
60k THANK YUO ALL! 🤩 PLEASE SUBSCRIBE to my channel 🙌
You told me to subscribe, so I did. Wow this is good.
The thing is you could buy a bass ten times more expensive, and you won't sound ten times better...
So hard to find bass players that actually play the instrument. Great job and it sounds so good.
Thank you so much
Should be on commission from Harley Benton!
Keep on listening to this over and over, and I think it's a masterpiece, so much one can learn.

thank you Joel!
Agreed!
I have one of the unlined ones. So easy to play, I like it as much as my £650 Ibanez
I was thinking can a bass that cheap sound good? Then I watched this guy play and was sold.
30k views! wow...thank you all!
Great sound for a so cheap bass...but the fingers and the bass player make the difference! thanks for sharing this amazing solo!
What a blast and the best is that you got a heavenly sound with a "cheap" bass.
Very good ,bro.
You got the groove.
(Fretless Bass is a must for me.
When it hits you, you don't want to play fretted basses anymore.)
thank U Patrick!
That is amazing! Proof you don't have to break the bank to play quality sounding instruments! Well done! Love the sound!

I didn't even notice the added pickguard, I was so occupied with the music

heros: "dont fret im here now"
me:
@@toothhair3676 LOL!😆🎶👍🏾
Sounds like Marcus Miller’s Fretless. Smooth, even, and plenty of mwah!😌👍🏾
...and it costs 1/10 than Miller's bass ahahaha Thank You!

I bought the bass because of this video. Can't wait to play some Jaco tunes
Wow. This is gold.
And I used to be spoiled by watching Michael Arnopol play from 8-feet away at the legendary Green Mill in Chicago…
This very much reminds me of something he might play.

Super smooth, mate. 👍

Your melodic phrasing in this solo made me watch it several times. Nice stuff!
