bass solo

Topics about musical instruments other than guitar should go here. There's bound to be a Carter, LeRoi, or Yo-Yo Ma out there.

Not too shabby at all. But if you are going to do some solos i'd suggest writing your own. It's more interesting :-p



and your bass is out of tune.

And it doesnt sound out of tune to me, but what I am 90% sure of is you are hearing the vibrating but that isn't me being out of tune....it's this nice little baby:

its when you play the harmonics, it just happens a few times. you hear alot of wavering, which shouldnt be happening even with the chorus. it is probably BARELY out of tune, just a nitpick. i didn't notice it until you put harmonics in towards the end.

im sorry i think whatever effects you have on it during the slapping parts just ruins it.

I don't have any effects on the slapping parts. You guys gotta realize when you record with a video camera you can't except every good sound quality.

And about the wavering...thats what a chorus pedal does.

No what I'm saying is...the point of a chorus pedal is to take the pitch and bend it back and forth and what I do is I turn my depth up and my rate down so it wavers slower but is deeper.
