Great tone and nice playing. What the setup? Just one suggestion if I may: make some pauses sometimes, let the backing work for you.

Why should I mind if anyone plays over my backing, I mean that why I posted them!
I've been learning how to play bass (properly) and making these backings is quite fun. Also, when you move to a role of a "backing" musician, it is gratifying to hear other solo over your backings. thanks for having a go.

Anyone else?

My humble opinion:

Some really nice stuff... I like the tone, the technique, and the melody... However, there were at least two spots at the very beginning where it sounded like it was a bit out of sync - like you missed the downbeat. Other than that, very enjoyable.

Thanks for letting me listen,
Rick

Thanks Marin, yah I can hear how it'd better to let the music "breath" a lil more, thanks for the input.

Setup wise, Im just using an ART Tube MP lining my GandL straight into my Mic, using GarageBand's Amp Modeling for the Tone and Effects.

Wonderful lines and melodic approaches, you really let it play, it is a piece of story and not stiff either.
Nothing other than what Marin said on critique, loved the juicy warm tones

Thanks Rid, Rick, thanks for the input guys, yah there were a few times the downbeat slid away from me . . . thanks for the critique guys, always good to hear cause music's a journey of growth eh?

Whoa! Tone and chops, it's all there! I really liked the phrasing and tone. You are an excellent musician, post more!

Man... that was superb.

Not a flaw. NOT ONE!

Excellent licks and phrasing

WOOHOO! Very cool! I totally agree with the others

Ty,

Just smokin! Great tone - just right. Tasteful and appropriate playing. Any criticism? Well, not a whole lot, perhaps timing a tad off in a few spots - but very hard to notice unless looking for it. The only reason I can hear it, is that it's a problem for me as well.
