Holy crap, the sound of this bass literally made me cry!
John is the best! Love this guy.
GREAT !!! IT's a BERGONZI !!! John you are very lucky and great soloiist !!
I just love everything about this. I think Ben Wolfe used to have a similar bass shape. I love them shoulders.
I’m using a eudoxa low B/C string. On rare occasions i use a low E string - also a wound gut eudoxa- good for jazz- anything.

How is the tension in the eudoxa wound gut E? I’m using a synthetic right now at about 45 lbs of tension. Was wondering if the eudoxa was similar?
Do you have any thoughts on what bow hair, bow weight and rosin type works best with gut strings?
Used to play on a bass with shoulders kind of similar to these ones. The most uncomfortable experience in my life as bassist....
Beautiful! What are the pieces played in this clip? Wanna learn em

Yes ! Yes! Yes! What I have been trying to tell people too .... ( I also talk about real skin drum heads, gut guitar strings, playing with no nails ) :))
Don't know why people still like steel strings . Didn't change back since I first put gut strings on. Completely right!
What are the tensions on the unwound guts Mr. Feeney? Are those medium sets? or heavy?
Whyyy I didn't hear about that before???
What kind of gut string is being used in the video?

The top three strings are Antiquus unwound gut made by Nicholas Baldock- the bottom is a siver wound low C by Eudoxa.

If you don't mind me asking, how does that work for you having the Low C set up "normal". Or are you in 5th tuning?
nickelodeon GUTS do do do do ya have it GUTS
Louder than steel strings?......if you say so dude.
I always tend to hate the tone of gut strings. Sounds horrible. The bass player is good though!
It's out of tune
It’s so out of tune lol
