Electric Upright Bass vs Double Bass Demonstration with Chris Minh Doky

FUNKY BASS VOL. 1: BASS LINES – OUT MONDAY 17TH FEBRUARY In this video, we meet our newest tutor to be added to the website, the wonderful Chris Minh Doky. He is a champion of the electric upright bass and an extremely funky guy! We had so much fun filming with him in Gothenburg, Sweden, and we are delighted to announce his new course, Funky Bass Vol. 1: Bass Lines. It's due out on Monday, so stay tuned for updates! In this interview, Chris and I talk all things electric upright vs double bass. We discuss his beautiful Fly-Auray acoustic bass and his @yamahaglobal SLB300-Pro electric upright bass and how they differ. The conversation includes demonstrations on both instruments, Chris's preferences, how the electric upright works and other gear that Chris uses to tour.
