About This Video
I played the bass part of “Runaway Baby” by Bruno Mars. I played the original track through a speaker while running the bass through a preamp and an audio interface. The video was recorded on a smartphone.
Backing Track / Original Source
The original track is from the video below.
Instruments
- Bacchus 5-string bass (BEGINNING OF THE NEW TRADITION Series)
- Bass preamp: NUX / MLD Bass Preamp + DI
My Playing
I believe the original track is tuned down a half step, but since I had a 5-string bass, I played it in standard tuning. I tried to keep the groove intact, but surprisingly, playing the root notes in eighth notes was more difficult than I expected.
