Mohini Dey and her MarkBass Bass

[Dr. Cheese]

The finger tone is crystal clear. I still dislike her bridge pickup only slap tone.

 

[Doctor Morbius]

She has some SERIOUS chops! Makes one wonder how many hours a day she practices.

 

[JoeDaddio]

Serious skill there! I had a hard time hearing the bass during their slap jam. I am listening on my phone, though, so that's likely why.

Not my thing, but full credit to her and Markbass.

 

[gwangi]

AWESOME playing!!!! But the one thing that bugs me is how MarkBass can make an instrument that totally looks very similar to a Zon Legacy Elite-Hyperbass.

This.

I think Zon is essentially defunct. Maybe Mr. Zon has licensed the design?

 

[kesslari]

@Dr. Cheese Zon is nowhere near defunct. The Markbass Richard Bona bass looks a lot like a Zon Legacy. I don't know if Joe licensed the designs or just doesn't have a good lawyer.

Unless she became left handed suddenly.... (why is the video flipped?)

Mohini Malmsteen?

Probably her amateur camera work.

 

[mikewalker]

Hey, a bebop jazz guitarist...

 

[LuckyScott]

Not my thing, I like bass players that play low. You know, Bassy

Certain devices do that. Think it's maybe an Apple thing. Muckelroy was having issues with that.

 

[bholder]

Don't she know there ain't no money up there?

 

[Thumpin6string]

She has incredible speed and talent and I wish I had 25% of her chops, but EVERYTHING I've heard her play sounds like like she is soloing. Sometimes it sounds better when a player just grooves. Even Victor Wooten can just groove without over playing and he is another with serious chops. Of course this is just my opinion.

Now is that her Markbass bass, or is she just trying it? (Thought she was a Mayones endorsee.)

Here's an actual solo where she does some nice melodic groove playing in between the stunning displays of technical proficiency:

I get ya. I'll get a hankerin for some wankin every now and then. But I enjoy bass for the low notes.

 

[Killing Floor]

She's so good. Take off that tag, Minnie Pearl, we're filming this. Really great fingering.
