    Out of all of them, the 78 P really got my attention. What a beauty.

    Wow That Gibson EB sounds like Moog synth bass. Awesome!

    Fantastic video, thank you for highlighting this awesome shop. As a Brooklynite myself, that place is a bass oasis! .... That vintage Gibson even shook the building I'm in just listening through my speakers :) .... and lastly the "I got a guy" line .... Doesn't get more Brooklyn than that ... and for the 3 deaf and blind cats who gave this video a thumbs down, "Fugedaboudit"

    Hey Ed, nice road report! Loved those basses and the music. When I'm in the good old US of A I'll be sure to check them out, looking forward to that trip. Be well Ed and thanks.

    This is a great video! I miss 48th street. Thank you, Ed.

    I'd watch Ed doing a road report on hand crafted tea cozies, but seeing him touring all things bass in NYC is f'n spectacular!. By the way Ed, please get an F Bass, you killed on that thing man.

    • @BassWhispererTV
      @BassWhispererTV  Před 5 lety

      MrRedrocket42 Ive always loved F Basses! They sound incredible and fun to play. However.... I have zero application for a bass like that... and it’s certainly not an impulse buy for a guy like me. In my dreams perhaps.

  • @MrDangard
    @MrDangard Před 4 lety +3

    That Serek is the first short scale bass I've ever heard that truly sounds like a full scale. Wow!

    Yo Ed! Long time fan from London England, Love your stuff! Next time you’re in New York you should head out to massapequa and check out the New York Bass Works shop, that guy is a master luthier if there ever was one.

  • @MacTeee
    @MacTeee Před 5 lety +1

    Great report Ed! I look forward to the next one.

    And finally, a credible opinion from experienced luthier and musician about flat-sawn vs quarter-sawn and graphite reinforced necks.

    • @BassWhispererTV
      @BassWhispererTV  Před 5 lety

      Istvan Hoffmann Mas Hino confirmed something I’ve always felt... and his Basses are living proof.

    That equatorial mahogany 5 strings is a beauty ! (Well, so are all the others, but still it blew my mind)

  • @timothysegal3445
    @timothysegal3445 Před rokem

    Great video! Nothing beats a good vintage P bass. Even from a "lesser" year as 78 iets beat the wannabe vintage guitars.

  • @sideparting6845
    @sideparting6845 Před 5 lety +1

    Brilliant! I visited Aguilar in NYC (very friendly) and Sadowsky too (even friendlier). Cool basses Ed and wasn't expecting that mudbucker sound at all

    It is all in the hands. Ed is so right. BTW, I have heard that in NYC you can die from a hat attack. Ha-ha-ha

    @jaybrecker Před 3 lety

    Aww, man. Not much can make me homesick for my native NYC, but this sure did. I did a few rehearsals at the music building but most of 'em with the groups I played with were at Ultrasound on 30th, just down the street from 30th St. Guitars, another great store (which has moved since then). Great vid. Love to meet you sometime, Ed. (I'm in Phoenix now, actually.)

    • @BassWhispererTV
      @BassWhispererTV  Před 3 lety

      I think I rehearsed at Ultrasound too, there was a place in that building I went to a lot when I was in High School bands... Daily Planet? Anyway... I don't get up to PHX a lot, but if you're down in Tucson, give me a shout. I might be around... currently touring, but.... who knows?

    10:15... you can actually see the video get darker due to the mud-bucker tone.

  • @snakeplissken44
    @snakeplissken44 Před 3 lety +1

    the f bass and the first serek. I couldn't pick only 1.
