It’s both exciting and challenging to be playing this bass again. It is, after all, still a prototype. There are all kinds of intonation issues with it, the setup is not ideal, and it could probably do with an overhaul of the electronics.
But the fundamental feedback I get from it when I play melodically, chordally, and basically just the music I’m working on for the new record, is priceless. Well worth the struggles for the payoff of range.
As a result, I’m doing a little more playing in this episode than usual, and running you through some of the ways I’m preparing to go to Argentina in a few weeks to cut the new record.
Enjoy,
Janek
