Upright Bass vs. Ukulele Bass #bass #bassist #guitar #ukulele #music

Doesn’t sound the same but those UKE basses sure have an unmatched charm to them. I’ve always loved the sound of one

The bigger one has a higher range of frequencies

i remember seeing that small bass at a music store in the Philippines and calling it "doughy-strings"

I honestly like those little use basses more than I thought. They’re a lot of fun to play

What song is this?

Uke sounds like an upright with really old strings, minus the resonance

Looks like rubber bands

Are we not going to talk about how the small bass has frets?

One of the bassist from Harley Poe uses a ukabass And one of them use an upright bass

Didn't do too bad

Not even close

the resonance of the small bass is nicer than i expected, and still gets the sound of an upright pretty well!

what is the u bass model specifocally??

Since youve got a Ukulele bass, you may want to look into a Ashbory basses they were similar in idea and kinda the same size only the Asbory is an electric bass.

Day 90 of asking for Jack White Brhs tone

The uke bass sounds more like a p bass but still better than expected

Little guy sounds awesome but it's lacking overtones and higher content, which is weird given the size 😂

Could be cool to have a song where theyre played in sync, or kinda dance around eachother

You can get flat wound strings for the uke bass and it gets even closer and is easier to tune and play 😊

My ukebass goes soooo far out of tune past the 5th fret

What about a Hofner vs an upright.
Apparently it was designed as an alternative to one.

Where do I get that ubass?

I used to play an ashbory, they’re actually great; and unlike a stand up, you can get it on the tube.

Upright was mic'd, U-Bass was recorded through a pick up

WOW, size basically doesn't matter that much.

Sounds different but not worse

I love eko basses

It is now that I have coined a term to describe my favorite bass tone: rubber band

Little thing sounds better than the biggy to my 👂

Not bad , not bad

dont forget that that upright is shaking the whole building, while that uke would be lucky to shake the hands of whoever plays it

Sounds like personal preference to me…..Ubass easier to steal at least lmao
Im joking, not a thief, Ive got the debt to prove it🤘

Im Gettin the smol boi Soon!

It just sounds like a bass with flats to me.

Bes'

Not really a fair comparison because you used an ACOUSTIC double bass and then an ELECTRIC mini bass/bass ukulele

It's not about the size, it's how you make her sound

Giving my vote best tone to u bass. It's got more of that modern soul static.

Day #54 of asking for Necrobutcher's tone

day 16 of asking for trevor dunn's bass tone

Oops I forgot yesterday, but day 5 of asking for Jean-Jaqués Burnels BEHS tone

Not remotely similar.

Ten times more expensive too, I bet

Not even close. But liked the uke more than the upright

The Ike bass sounds more like an electric bass

Doesn’t sound the same, but it does sound good.

The smaller one seems to have such good personality

Behs
