All of the catching up got my juice going. So it’s a quick cover of my favorite song
No one is to blame by Howard Jones
Bass
Lignum Fretless
Sterling SS Custom Fretless neck
Ibanez EUB 804
This one has wet effect on it. Light Reverb and delay.

Cool cover!
I was wondering who the other guy is that still remembers Howard Jones. Now I know.
hey @BillBass , for your next covers may I ask you to please write clearly the artist and the name of the song in your post, like : “Artist - Name of the song” when you release a cover ? It helps me a lot because I’m keeping a listing of all covers year after year. thanks !
…and for your next challenge, play every instrument in that room on one cover! ![]()
Great playing, BTW! Love the sound of the fretless!
Changed it!
That was great Al! All three sounded beautiful.
Thanks. @sunDOG the thought has crossed my mind many times. ![]()
Thanks you @JerryP
Great cover. I like the instrument swaps and, man, those fretless basses sound nice. Awesome playing.
Thanks @Jacob

Another MH entry! I’m about halfway done with the album at this point. This particular tune only has two bass riffs, and the main riff is a bit busy so it required some time practicing at lower speeds. Once again I’ve found Transcribe! to be excellent for this. I think I’ll be ponying up the money for that app after all!

Hope you enjoy!
Great playing and nice tone. I found myself head bobbing to that groove. Well done.
great playing and tone @cheeze_pizza !
Thanks @Al1885 ! I really love this bass
Digging in is fun for sure, and an all fretless AL cover is such a treat! Lovely instruments and playing. I really like the punchy bottom end on that Sterling.
Thanks a lot Al! I love playing that bass, it does the subtle fretless thing really well. And the intonation, appreciate the kind words, it’s always a work in progress, but glad all the practice is paying off ![]()
Thanks @dlamson13 i love the short scale and the Fretless is just cherry on top.
More fun with the Ampero One, this time trying to get the bass guitar to sound a bit like a bass synth.
This song is the wonderful ‘Down in the Park’, by Gary Numan. Super-easy to play, this cover was more about noises I could make, than anything else. Oh, that and embarrassing my daughter once again, this time with a request to shoot a video in the local park. She was mortified!

The bass of choice was the Ibanez EHB1000S. I must say, it’s great to play!
