Thanks, Adam - I was able to refine my slapping technique because of this video. I already knew about sea Bass from living on the FLA(Far Lower Alabama) Gulf Coast in Panama City Beach. My parents lived on the other side of St Andrews Bay(Panama City was originally called St Andrews,
My Dad loved fishing for Speckled Trout, which my Mom insisted on overcooking and making me hate it - mostly because she insisted that cooking it with the bones in tasted better; but what it did was make consuming the ruined fish a chore. I learned to make small salads because of this, which is with me to this day and helps keep me healthy. Not a Foodie but I still love fish, though; here in Seattle salmon is widely available; I just barely cook it with some red onion, lemon slices and sprinkle a bit of Lowery's Garlic salt(with parsley in it) after cooking. And some spinach or Broccoli.
I love your videos because you throw in so much interesting and useful information; so much that I have to limit myself. Do keep up the good work.
I liked finding out that you make music; I don't know if you've checked out Spanish Rock music, but there's really good stuff almost everywhere. I currently listen to Soda Stereo, an older Argentine trio; and the Mexican Wunderkinder power trio from Monterey, The Warning.
Gotta go, I have stuff to do and people to annoy.

Guitar player here. I’m the guitarist and lead singer of a punk rock band and I always thought that the bass was sort of a bone headed instrument. Then in late 2022 I went on tour with a friend’s band filling in on bass as their bassist was experiencing circumstances and I’m here to tell you that playing bass well is FAR harder than playing guitar in my view. Also it made my fingers hurt like hell. It was like the last 20 years of guitar playing that I had meant nothing. I found myself wrapping my fingers and hands in bandaids and medical snd bleeding all over the place like the victim of a slasher. It was an hell of a four months. Also, anecdotally, I received far less free weed and hooked up with many fewer girls than I did as a guitarist. It’s true, bass playing is hard and thankless work. But it’s good work, if you can get it.

Frets easier to learn with, sure, but muscle memory is also a thing. String players learn where the finger positions are by rote, the way I learned the slide positions on a trombone back in my school days. Pitch-checking through the early months and years is absolutely a thing instructors do. Heck, if I want to approximate a note I remember the start if Somewhere Over the Rainbow in my head to get middle C and run a scale from there. I haven't had vocal training for nearly 20 years and I still get within about 20c of where I'm aiming, so I have zero doubt that actively practicing concert musicians are definitely on pitch.

Re: I don’t need lines to find the notes on my cello
I think about this somewhat often, having played cello for over 15 years. Then I hear recordings of myself and can hear every slightly out of tune note, and I yearn for perfectly placed frets
One question I’ve always wondered is, are the height of the frets different as you go down the fingerboard I would imagine that if the string is pushed against a fret, the displacement of the string halfway down the fingerboard would keep bumping into that fret unless that fret’s height is smaller than higher up on the fingerboard

Brother you credited Brian Wilson, Steve Harris, Sting, and Charles Berthoud, for different bass techniques but you didn’t mention that Larry Graham invented slapping and that it comes from funk! You mentioned four white bassist while talking about the history of the instrument and didn’t mention any Black bassists (other than picture of Ron Carter for two seconds, very not based of you! Electric bass history without Black musicians is an incomplete history! If you’re gonna post musicology we gotta keep you honest Ragusa

14: 06 Adam, are you sure every fret on that bass is perfectly in tune
Nowadays some fretted instruments are overengineered to have intervals as close to perfect as possible but even those are not perfect for all intervals.
So a fretless player with a well developed ear would probably be more accurate and in tune than frets.
I play frets btw. And I'm also not a professional musician.

reply

I’d just call it an electric bass guitar. I would never call it just a bass. But I’m also a nerdy music kid in college.
Also that’s not how the electric bass guitar came to being. It’s got nothing to do with the double bass. It is a hybrid of the acoustic bass guitar and the electric guitar. Guitars and bowed stringed instruments have distinctly different histories.

reply

Oooh, you should try playing John Entwistle style if you haven't. He didn't slap, but he got that really gnarly aggressive sound by playing super hard fingerstyle over the last frets of the fretboard, like the strings are a typewriter. They strike the fretwire and create this jangly, punchy tone that's halfway between a pick sound and a slap sound, great for more aggressive genres.

English speakers think that the diffrence between bass and perch are close in german we just call all of them Barsch. And so we pretty much any fisch ever discovered by a german speaker. Very many are called (some other word)-Barsch.
Doesnt matter where they r on the phylogenetic tree of fish live. In doubt call it a Barsch.

reply

Adam! As a bass player of many years (no I don't play with fish) I was surprisingly entertained by this video.
If you have the stomach for it, could you next do a video on the relationship and differences between existential, deterministic and relativistic recipes

reply

i love watching bass players with their instruments. they look so cool. while the lead guitar and the vocals are jumping around or trying to get attention and the drummer is kicking up a storm in the back, the bass player is just chilling on the side, just pure vibes
reply

14: 58 Common misconception. Steve Harris was purely a two-finger attack, but because he didn't keep the rest of his fingers tucked back (way too much tension in the plucking hand, IMO) and had such an aggressive attack, it looks like a three-finger approach.
reply

Hey Adam, I appreciated the concern you showed for the sustainability of certain fish! It makes me wonder tho, why when talking about the sustainability of consuming meat and especially beef, did you kind of push it aside and write it off as a 'complicated topic'
reply

In Chinese culture flipping whole fish is unlucky so we just get good at peeling meat from the bottom as well (it helps that the fish used for whole steamed fish in Chinese cuisine tend to have big bones that are easy to get meat off of)
reply

Anyone who plays an orchestral string instrument and pretends like they didn't learn the notes with tape like the rest of us is an outright liar. Fret markers are far from overrated.
reply

No one else annoyed how he was whisking the pan like that
Sure theres no non stick chemicals to leach off but theres no way thats good for the pan. Its like scratching ur pan with a fork

reply

I know Adam was really going through it recently so I love seeing him let loose and have fun making these videos. Keep enjoying yourself and if that results in a video even better!
reply

Did you base this recipe on a basic base of basted bass while playing bass with a bass on the base of your kitchen counter a few meters away from the basin, next to the bass amp
reply

if you're iching for viewers to recommend songs may I offer ghost their bassist who goes by the stage name Rain has been one of my favourites in the modern era of rock and metal
reply

I'm genuinely wondering how many times he had practice whisking the sauce while talking. Maybe it's my ADHD, but I feel like there have to be a few broken emulsions in the trash.
