Hi Scott, you should show the sound of the bass unplugged, just only mic, to hear the real acoustic sound
You can hear it unplugged here:
th-cam.com/video/79BxNW4F6Qc/w-d-xo.html
Sounds very good.
Exactly ! After all, it IS and acoustic bass. Let's hear the thing unplugged in addition to plugged in.
You wouldn't be able to hear it lol
Eh, miced up you're still not going to hear the true acoustic sound of it
Acoustic bass has advantages,
You can play heavier chords without that muddy sounds you get out of a bass amp,
Uh that might be the only advantage really
As for people saying it's too quite, let me remind you, AMPLIFICATION WAS INVENTED FOR CROWDS, STOP TURNING YOUR SPEAKERS TO 11 AT HOME, DAMN BRO LOUDER DOESNT MAKE YOU SOUND GOOD. Just like this all caps text.
Lmao .
Acoustic bass and acoustic guitar, in the living room or on the porch, just two bros chillin with some tunes
Every acoustic bass I’ve ever played sounds amazing plugged in.
Cool, how many have you tried? I'm interested in checking one out.
@@MountainHomeJerrel 4, each of which were under $500
@@ts4gv That's rad. Thank you.
@@MountainHomeJerrel They’re nice to have for three main reasons.
The sound plugged in.
The portability/convenience. (sounds best acoustically when you use a heavy pick.)
As a practice tool - they reveal every flaw with your technique.
@@ts4gv Thanks for the insight. I like that last reason very much.
I just love your classes and your story of how you get to the bass and your humility!
I love my Cort acoustic bass guitar. It's my main practise instrument, and I gig with it regularly as well, playing pubs clubs etc. Adding a thumb rest really helps for playability. A good set up really helps, but you can't have the strings too low though, because just like any acoustic guitar, the top swells and shrinks slightly with humidity changes. It sounds excellent with a mic in the studio. For live stuff I use a rubber soundhole plug. I can have it cranked and be standing right infront of my rig without problem...
im just getting into bass with cort accoustic bass guitar. idk does accoustic bass rattles easier than electric ones? i feel like i had to go an extra mile to press the notes or it buzzes a lot. perhaps it's just because im a beginner or something.?
I love my Fender acoustic bass. I bought it literally just days after I discovered that acoustic basses exist.
If you’re there, which model you was it!? The C-60 by any chance?
BG 31-MTB
i play a cort (electric) myself and really love it!
really love the channel but why is there not a short bit without the amp?
it's a proper deep body acoustic it would be nice to know what it sounds like without an amp
Ok, here’s a comment I hope Scott gets to read. I had the same model laying around for a year and I just was not enthused. I took a recent look at your video, and this time really studied it hard. Also I have been adding things to my electric bass sound, which certainly helped me with the Cort SJB5F NS (Natural Finish).
I wanted to play through a big amp and really push the volume without feedback.
I put an inexpensive Screaching Halt Guitar Soundhole Plug. Like you, I turned all the treble off the Fishman onboard EQ, and on your tip-did the same to the GK 1001RB amp. It’s going through a GK 410 cabinet. But this is the biggest improvement that I call my Eureka moment. The bass sounded quirky still-and here’s what helped it out to fantastic bass sound, and I wouldn’t play it again without this.
I cranked the input on MXR Bass Compressor up so the LED’s would show a level. On passive instruments you have to do this with the pedal. Then it went into a Joyo Analogue Delay pedal with the Repeat time very minimal with a hot mix on the Repeat itself just to keep barely noticeable. (I got the delay tip also from your video and like you-using the Cort PHASE control on the Fishman controls really adds). Oh, glory what a sound! Scott, like most-I bought this bass and it just had the squeakiest, uneven sound in the world-and feeding back- after many hours of playing it - I hung it on a a wall and it collected dust. Seeing your video again-challenged me to make it sound GOOD and I accomplished this. I hope this comment helps others.
Screaching Halt Guitar Soundhole Plug + all Treble turned down on guitar AND amp, Bass increased + Cort Phase on + MXR Bass Compressor + Joyo Analogue Delay into GK 1001 RB amp and GK410 cab.
I had a Cort copy of a Steinberger way back in the 80's. It was actually a pretty solid bass. Replaced the stock pickups with some DiMarzio's, and it rocked. The acoustic sounds great.
I love it that you play on the treble clef side . Wish you would do a video on Tapping.
I need this one soooo much oh my god it just sounds amazing!
Would absolutely love either or both! Thanks for all the tips if I become half as good as you I will be a happy man
My first bass was a Cort (action). Always wanted an acoustic but hard to justify to my wife! I know that whom ever wins that setup is going to be really happy with it. I never played a Cort that didn't feel good in some way.
I recently sold all my electrics and so I'm looking at having only acoustic guitars and my Denver DB44 and I usually use a magnetic pickup and NYXL on my acoustic guitars of the same gauge as it came with so the magnetic works..
Question.. Half round 50-105 D'addario be a decent choice? Idk what gauge this has but I hate the bronze rounds
I think my bass has a larger bout and 24 frets it barks pretty loud for an acoustic. But I don't like the piezo balance.
i'm just 5 years to late for the competition... Amazing work Scott!
it sounds cool, but where i put my thumb, that i use to put on the pick up??? any brands thought about it?
I am considering an acoustic bass. If I gig with it will it get over the top of the drums and E-Guitar or are they for sitting around the campfire etc? I have a Fender Rumble 100v3 I can plug it into.
Very thankful for your time Sir!
scott, could you tell what type and brand of head amp cabinet and also size of a speaker. tq
wow........what a beautiful sound and clean...........nice demo, thanks.......cheers
I really hope I win that amp
it'd be really useful for my school band and my cheap bass
you've been a great instructor and you've taught me allot, even my band director was impressed by you
Hi Scott, any chance you can make a review of Taylor gs mini-e bass, please?
I have an Ibanez PCBE12MH-OPN. Back in the scouts I was named Percebe (BERNACLE in Spanish) by my friends. My bass doesn't have a silly name, is the Ibanez Percebe
Awsume Scott 👍
just played 1 at the music shop best fun i had all bloody week😂
keep up the great vid gov
thanks mate
what kind of string do you recommend on this acoustic bass?
What do you think about gold tone micro bass?
I added flatwounds to my Fender GB41 acoustic.. love it
calderwd1965 ... wow you can do that? I just ordered one... I'm going to try that
Do you ever play a 5 string with a low B instead of the high C that you normally use?
im impressed by the sound!
im normally not a accoustic guy
its almost nicer, than one of my electrics ^^
i am learning to play on a fender CB-60 Sce.acoustic bass with D'Addario ECB84 extra light flat round strings, cheaper than the cort ,I would recommend this set up for beginners.
Hello Scott. What delay padal did you use?
How do I addjust the truss rod in the bass neck?
Hey wasup Scott How am I supposed to tune my acoustic bass guitar
Hi Scot. What do you think a Cort build qaulity. I am thinking about buying one of their fretless basses Cort B-4FL Open Pore Natural Fretless Bass
jcherw i have the b5 plus i just bought it a month ago... the feel of the bass itself is far better than the basses in same price range... I’m a beginner and for me its more than good... it also has active preamp... i can tell you this... it is one of the best bass in that price range...
Sounds great!
CJCB - then the neck length, then the number of stings, then the finish, and country of manufacture origin ie, CJCB304NACH
I owned an acoustic bass too, it is the Bomtec A-T 5 -13 695 X Super T 997 A-1 V2.
I've got a Cort Accoustic Bass. Cost me about $700 AUD 2 years ago. Absolutely love it. I don't enjoy it amped, but I didn't buy it to be amped.
Onde compro essa luva?
How do u hook that to a pa system?
Even though I missed the deadline for the contest, that's a gorgeous a/e. I play an Ibanez a/e, due to physical limitations and the weight of an electric bass is very demanding for my back and spine injuries.
The electric Ibanez GSR (entry level, about $200) is quite light, and is a decent bass, you could test it in a shop.
You made that bass sound amazing.
i dont know how to enter, i just need a new bass, ive got a cheep starter one and ive been playing for 6 ish years now 😩😩
YoungBaconLive click the first link in the description
wow I never won something in my life and I would love it to be able to call this beauty my own
Cort SJB6FXNAT.
I had that same bass when I had my eyes examined.
I already have a Cort bass (artisan b5) they are great instruments... thank you @scottbasslessons
Scott, do you have an Acoustic Bass course?
Can't wait!
its beautiful!
Like it but can’t find anyone selling them!! Help!
Can this bass handle flat wounds?
Nice bass box guitar. I have a Dean I really like.
I bought an acoustic bass guitar two weeks ago. it arrived yesterday and I thought "Lets see what TH-cam has got for me" I find your Video and you Play the fucking exact same bass as I buyed
I cant wait to get a bass
where's the link?
Maybe your greatest video, really.
Explanation, perfect!
Playing, perfect!
Blending the bass eq and amp eq, perfect!
Man, you're very talented of course but you showed me a different side if you in this video. Cheers!!!
yeah, basses like that were certainly around when YOU were 18, Scott. in fact, Cort, the aforementioned Carvin, Martin/Sigma, and a ton of others had entry-level priced basses that were all of pretty good quality.
Any recommendations for music like he played in the intro?
Check Tony Grey's solo albums :)
Maybe try out like Aram Bedrosian or Jaco Pastorius
Donkey Kong country soundtrack
Wow! Yaaay. Entered!
daaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn!!!! I'm a few years too late (or did I enter back then???) but, I've been looking for an acoustic bass now. Carvin made one about 20 years ago and I thought it was great! the acoustics that Carvin was selling back then were made by Cort, so this one is more than likely just as good as the Carvin-branded ones.
The brightness has always been an issue with acoustic electric basses.
i really need this
Nixon Benedict no you dont
Raamie DarkThorn lol
Hi Scott, do you sell acoustic bass guitars?
Can you show us the guitar chops?
Is that a glove of some sort on your left hand? Love that tune your playing. Thanks.

@@hereisthelightjockey OMG I remember watching that video 6 years ago when it came out, but was a random youtube recomendation, never followed this channel.
And now I was looking for acoustic bass videos becacuse i bought one, and found this video, saw the glove and reminded me of that old one. "It cant be the same guy, right?" and it was!
This is crazy
I have Ibanez acoustic bass.. the name is pretty complicated too, its OPN-something. i only remember the first 3 letter..
from now on im gonna call my bass Bobby.
it sounds divine
devine*
*whoosh*
The player in the video is named Scott Devine.
I'll just let that sink in.
Max Gauthier really???
They didn't understand the pun and thought he just misspelled it.
Quite a catchy name
Damn i wanted to hear it unplugged too
I have this bass. I love the acoustic sound, but the piezo sounds too raspy to me. Instead, I use a stock Seymour Duncan sound hole humbucking pickup and a Sure SM81 mic at the 14th fret without the on board electronics. It sounds warmer and fatter to me. It's actually a acoustic guitar pickup, but works perfectly with no modifications needed. I might give the sound hole pickup it's own jack on the bass, and make it permanent.
Why not bypass the piezo pu, and cpnnect the jack to the soundhole pu, instead of adding a New Jack?

CORT AB850F BK is this bass worth buying please tell me
Buy it for the acoustic sound, but don't use the horrible sounding piezo electronics. I have this bass, and use a Seymour Duncan humbucking soundhole pickup with no modifications. It sounds warm, fat, and round now. Also, switch to flatwound strings.
how does it sound with the amp - that what I'm here for planning to buy on Acoustic
Entered! Wish me lucky
What is that glove he wears on his left hand?
Why I Wear "The Gloves" /// Scott's Bass Lessons
herpes
I asked my wife for an acoustic fender bass for my birthday... I haven't got it and i already love it...i dream about it...
Ernesto Cantu Valle she’s waiting for the diamond ring first
I've got the sjb6fx, only fretless, so it's probably called something else. I just call it my acoustic fretless jumbo cut-away bass guitar for short.
My man sneezed on the keyboard
is there a reason he's wearing a m, what seems to be a latex glove on his left hand ?
I think he has like a nerv condition that makes his fingers move involuntarily, so he uses those gloves to control it.
i have always wanted an acustic bass!
it'll be boring with time.
Samir Shrestha It's only becomes boring if you allow it. I own an a/e. After warming up, you can't get me out of my studio (aka bedroom) for hours. Practicing odd scales/modes, songs, jamming with a portable electronic drum kit, etc.
+stan broniszewski well, its fun in that was. I also own an acoustic bass. I was talking about the sound.
I’ve been playing an acoustic fretless Ibanez for years I don’t see a whole lot of content on them on the ol tube.
You should upload some content! I love seeing acoustic basses :)
scott how much amazing gear do you have ?? 0nO
I've never liked phosphor bronze strings on acoustic basses. They always seem stiff and the note seems quieter than all the fretting and handling noise.
True.I don't like em period..I use steel strings on acoustic for more note and less overtones.Records beautifully and much better magnetic pickup response as well.
Can you slap it?
What's the glove?
He has a neurological disorder that affects his hand
sounds mean!!!
sounds like that frampton live album
Hi Scott
Hey, Scott, I don't remember if you answered that question in your glove video, but does glove helps to keep strings clean for a longer time?
People really don't want to sell these second hand, i've been waiting a year for it to pop up!
Lit
ha ha the same with some ibanez acoustics..ok with pf 60 but: sgt 630 e ps27-01
Dayum, twenty likes just for that beautiful intro.
6:32 the best AC. BASS TIP -anywhere, including YT. NOBODY TOUCHES UPON THIS. I have this model. # 1 reason why acoustic basses are slammed.
Should play it unplugged for me if it's unplugged it sounds better
el capitan is a proper name or el gordo is a good name to ;)
Or guitarròn too...
Is he playing that haunted Kleenex commercial ?
i have one of those and is the most beautiful and uncorfortable thing to play
Been lookin at Godin 5 today?
❤❤❤❤❤beautiful but, pricey.
You pay for what get.🇬🇧
Slap that shiii compa🤣
I freaked out a little when i first noticed his left hand
that bass it's like us serial number ..;)
