By minute one you got a like for not being into a lot of social media, just putting it out there into the ether. By minute two you got a subscriber. Drummer/ Military escapades/ Bass player later in life that's me! That's probably why I'm seeing this video a year after you posted it. Anyways, great job, keep it up! I'll keep watching, maybe I'll post a video one day. Just got to find the confidence. What takes more for you, the stage or getting behind the camera?

Hell Yeaaahhhh!!! Thank you! Welcome to the Madness! Def would encourage you to bust out some videos too. Its a good way and good excuse to keep your chops up and work on something. To me, nothing beats playing live on stage but doing videos and/or recording in general is still fun and an art of its own. I just cant sit still and need to constantly be doing something

@JangoMike I feel you, I can't sit still either. I have to be learning something. "How to" stays in my search bar on KZfaq. That's how I ended up here. 🤣 Not yet a Les Claypool expert, but with this, I'm on my way to incorporating some of his style into my own music. Thanks again!

I like the sound of that! Looking forward to seeing what you put together as you develop and refine your style! Get it 🎸🎶🎵

Carl is a rad dude that makes pretty rad basses! Ive owned several over the years, plus some from his former workers! Nothing else like em

@@JangoMike Carl was one of my best buddies when i lived in ny. I helped him pick out the wood for Claypool’s Rainbow Bass. We had many amazing adventures. He is a man of great principle.

Thats awesome! I love Carl. He really is a remarkable person. I went to NY this year to visit him for his birthday with a bunch of us CT Bros. We surprised him. Have you spoken to him recently? Here is the Video from his Birthday Bash kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kL6TntOGyK3elKs.htmlsi=LKvd7GlyIeLItH6o

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. Im a big fan of Carls work and his former workers as well. Ive bought sold & traded dozens over the years from them but these are my core 4 at the moment. Carl and his boys can sure make a damn fine instrument! Cheers 😎🎸🎣🎶🎵

I'm not keen on slap bass, and despite seeing them live, Primus aren't really my thing (although I appreciate the talent). All told, I really enjoyed this. Ace tutorial and gorgeous CT tone. Thanks bro, well done 👍

Semper fi, brother! I started playing bass again as an antidote to the horror of war. I see you have several CT basses, I've been trying for years to get on the build list!!

What up brutha! Glad you made it home. Have you spoken to Carl yet?

@charlescowan6121 4 ай бұрын

@JangoMike I've exchanged emails with "a friend of Carl's" who was "helping with the books". Said he opens the books every so often and put me on a list. So I went with another luthier called beardly custom bass and he's building me a bass. I'm always interested to hear people's experiences with not just CT, but with any custom builders. I appreciate you reaching out, thank you for your service!

I know Rick of Beardly very well. We talk everyday. Lol Hes a great builder! You will be very happy with a Beardly. I had a 6 string fretless Beardly for a bit with a Nordy pick up. The thing played great and sounded good. If you ever get a chance to go see Carl at his shop, do it!

@charlescowan6121 4 ай бұрын

@JangoMike What came of your beardly bass? I'd been talking to Rick Link over a year before I finally placed my order. He's a good dude, I haven't seen any complaints from anyone. Next time I visit socal I will see about stopping over to CT's shop.

@JangoMike 4 ай бұрын

Sadly, had some stuff come up & needed to raise some cash. I loved that Bass tho! Carls shop is actually in Brooklyn NY. Pete Hilton (one of carls former workers) has his shop in Los Angeles. If you come by SoCal ill run ya up there & we can jam 🎸🎣🎵🎶

Carl makes a damn fine Bass!!!!! ive had about a dozen over the years but currently at the moment have a 2015 Custom "Frills" CT & an all original 1977 CT. The other 2 Basses in this video are "Hilton" Basses made by Pete Hilton. Pete workrd with Carl Thompson for about 11 years before striking out on his own and making his own Basses. They are VEERRRYYYYY much CT worthy tho

Of course the biggest cry babies never have their own content.... 30 secs for the intro, 1 min to explain the difference between Les's technique and Victor Wooten, then at 2 mins 30 secs i explain the technique & demo....id love to see your video on how its done since you are so dissatisfied with mine

@@JangoMike if your gonna make content why not do everyone a favor and shut the fuck up and get to the point, Id lose the intro and the explanation of wooten and claypool we know who the fuck they are, do what the title of your video says claypool double thumb not explanation of wooten and claypool

You seem angry my guy, maybe go outside and touch grass, find a girl (or boy if thats what you like) and put down the cheetos. Out of all the views/likes this video has, you are the only baby who is crying. Let me know when you post your version of the video so i can see how its done...

@@JangoMike⁠He wasn’t that rude about it, he was just expressing his opinion about your intro. Sure, it wasn’t 5 minutes, but it was a little long. It was a good tutorial nonetheless.
