That’s a classic Alembic tone.
I have an Epic 5 and I get that tone just by plugging in.
They have a very rich sound with lots of bottom end but never boomy. I don’t know how they do it but I’m glad they do.
👍🏻

What a great tone. ❤️

[@VioletSpaceship]

Great playing, your style is very unique!

[@5216philip]

[@hieronymous7]

Thanks! I've been playing with both pick and fingers for almost 30 years!

[@aussiecoastie72]

Beautiful bass ! Amazing tone ! Great playing 👏👏👏

[@zombieprepper01]

Nice groove

[@nsjmusic]

Hey Harry, good to see you playing that bass. Sounds great. I've never used a pick on a bass before but that punchy sound you get is bang on!

[@hieronymous7]

Thank you! I appreciate it

[@czipendejs]

great bassline, simple but very catchy

[@markw.3716]

Playing a Stanley Clarke and looking like Jimmy Haslip…that’s some SERIOUS bass mojo!

[@RogueCheddar]

This comment deserves more thumbs up, besides just mine. I kept thinking, who does this guy look like. You nailed it with the Jimmy Haslip

Big "RTF" fan...
Loved Stanley's playing...

[@hieronymous7]

Yes! I've been listening to him since I was in high school in the '80s, though I never saw him live until about 10 years ago.

[@DeeshBassChannel]

Sounds Great ,Harry! ❤️

[@FunkBass010]

SELL THAT BASS TO ME - NOW! :) great Alembic you have there!

[@hieronymous7]

lol - thanks - I think it's priceless given that Stan the Man actually signed it

[@orangedogmusic]

Cool man!

Hey, great to see a bass being played with a pick!!!
I've been playing since early 60's. Started with thumb and fingers, went to a pick. I still play with various attacks, but I keep coming back to a pick!!! There are various " inflections" you can get with a pick , your fingers won't give you!!!
Many kudos!!!! Love your bass, too!!!👍👍👍

[@hieronymous7]

Thanks! Yes, I am definitely a pick player! I play with my fingers too, but will always have picks around. Like you say, there are some things that sound very different than fingers - I also play differently with a pick sometimes...

[@TMac-Attack]

Nice!!

[@jerrymorgan8526]

Good sounding Bass !

[@Flying_turnip187]

Great playing and tone bro

[@hieronymous7]

Thanks! This is the event that got me into Damian's Bass Education Community!

[@xriswolf78]

Sweet pick style

[@hieronymous7]

Thanks - it's just going for it to the best of my ability! I also learned from the masters - Chris Squire, Anthony Jackson, John Wetton, Roger Glover, etc.

[@xriswolf78]

@@hieronymous7 learned from the best hehe

[@MrBlackbass59]

I feel disappointed when I see a bass being played with a pick…but I guess that’s just me.

[@hieronymous7]

I know a lot of people feel that way, but don't close yourself off to music just because of a technique! I'm not really into it when rock guitarists play with just fingers, but spend a couple of minutes watching/listening to Jeff Beck and I'm blown away!
