Always appreciated Scott! 🙃👍🏻🙏🏻

I still cannot get over the fact that it's a fretless and everything is still in perfect tune, amazing man!

Thanks! It wasn’t always that way in the beginning. I’ve been playing Fretless for many years now! It didn’t happen overnight.

Oh nice. Short and sweet and entertaining and fretless. Thanks for sharing

Thank you. Lake Placid Blue is a classic Fender color from the 60’s. Always loved it. So we added it to my signature bass line. 🙏🏻🤩

@@FretlessMonster I see you tune it during Billy on the Weird Al show, I see how much you cranked it. very cool. Now I know ...Thanks!! Awesome!!

It is so interesting to see actually a very player who played it on CD or Live on this channel ( but for me it is not " seeing is believing" (not can play it). Thank you Mr Tony for every time giving me a new material to practice. 　　Next time ,　please give us a secret Mr Tony's " fat crawling on the groud but tight sound" on my cheap bass. Thank you.

Ah. Thank you for that. Yes, seeing is believing right? 😊👍🏻 I always say the sound comes from the hands. No matter which instrument we play, it’s how we use our hands. It’s not easy to describe. 🤷‍♂️🙃

Covering this song in a band...this really helps! Thanks Tony!

It’s a fun one to play.

As I mentioned on another platform, this is so inspiring to a new bass player. The fretless looks too intimidating to me as a new player. You make it look so easy!

@FretlessMonster

Thanks for that. I love hearing that. Fretless can feel intimidating initially. But like anything you want to get good at, if you put in the time, it becomes second nature. One of the big keys is the side dot markers which I discuss in this video. kzread.info/dash/bejne/l4hs27mifM2oo7A.htmlsi=3HHKgOW9RcCxMgZM

One of my favorite, been playing it with fingers, definitely right hand buster 😅

To me fretless sounds great with rock and roll. Just makes it sound heavier. 🔥

I have to agree 🤪

I adore the first Blue Murder album so much, classic and catchy hard rock with some seriously innovative bass playing. Having said that, the lyrics to the song 'Sex Ch1ld' have never sat well with me. Hopefully Mr Sykes meant it to be tongue in cheek!

Thank you. I love that album. We were shocked when we had an adult advisory warning on the cover. It has nothing to do with nasty things. We’re not like that. It was simply a sexy rock and roll song about a beautiful woman. It was the 80’s - a whole different time. But I agree, and it hasn’t held up well. But it was never intended that way.

Your Hired !!😜👍🏻
