Sick Sadowsky Tone & Great Playing!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49Llf2czYHc

I've been on a Anthony Jackson and Chaka Khan kick the last two days, and I ran across this clip. This Greg F is a TB guy, isn't he? Whoever he is, I love his playing, and his Sadowsky sounds phenomenal! That tone is so thick, deep, and round! I love it!

Needless to say, Greg F's playing makes that Sadowsky come to life.

Same as you Dr.

You are just as good as him Dr., minus the sweet Sadowsky. It's just a groove thang, and I know you feel it like him! Thanks for sharing the chops practice videos.

I don't know about all of the strings, but I believe that E string is tuned to C. It could be tuned C F Bb Eb.

That bass has some sick tone for sure! This is pretty straightforward playing, but the tone is ridiculous!

From the second video:

"My bass is tuned a half-step down (Eb/Ab/Db/Gb)"

Nice gooey tone; I'd rather listen to that than ear-assaulting slap any day of the week!

Great groove/timing and rock solid skills. I almost spilled my coffee shaking my butt.

I pine to play in a band that embraces this syle of music. It forces you to bring your A game, even if your A game is really a C-.
