Jamiroquai is one of those bands that I've learned so much from,
and especially from their first and great bassist - Stuart Zender.
His bass lines are always so funky and fun to listen and to play.
Also, there is a lot to learn from the synth bass lines, which in some songs were played by the late and great Toby Smith.
So here is my bass cover tribute to this fantastic band,
I hope you like it... SUBSCRIBE for more bass and funky videos.
The synth sound is played with Line 6 M5 Synth o Matic preset.
0:00 Revolution 1993
0:16 Emergency On Planet Earth
0:48 Too Young To Die
1:07 Space Cowboy
1:44 Travelling Without Moving
3:00 Deeper Underground
FBAQ (Frequently Bass Asked Questions):
Which Bass is it - 2008 Fender American Standard P-Bass
What strings do you use - D'Addario Nickel Wound 45-105
Tone/EQ - I usually go for 75-80% on the tone knob. For this video, the chain also went through Phoenix Audio Drs-1R preamp and Waves V Eq plugin - little boost at 180, 390,10k, some cut at 3.9k, HP at 47.
** Update: it has been brought to my attention that the bass player on the album version of \"Space Cowboy\" is Paul Powell and not Stuart Zender.
This is interesting, because that playing was so influential for me, and I had no idea it wasn't Zender's playing.
Without talking any respect from Zender's Amazing work, I think we should give credit for Powell's outstanding playing.
