Acoustic bass guitar

tenor, and bass. “There may be up to eight additional strings called bass courses or diapasons, which are usually arranged in a diatonic scale below the sixth course.” Like all stringed instruments during the Renaissance period the strings were made of dried gut and because of this the highest string, which had to be made of the thinnest gut, was “notorious” for breaking when played and thus a good treble string was highly prized. The basic playing action is similar to how a guitar is played.…

somewhere around G C F A D G or A D G B E A from the highest to lowest string which came to be known as the “old English lute tuning”. Somewhere in the mid 1500’s a seventh course was added in the bass on some lutes; although, the six course lute was still in…

For over 90 of years’ country music has been an enjoyable source of entertainment for millions of people around the world. With the reputation of an upbeat and feel good vibe country songs have, it is no wonder country music has been around for so long. Country artists are specifically known for singing about the outdoors, relationships, and alcohol. They are able to provide a direct connection using these three topics, between themselves and their audiences. Country music usually consists of a…

piano, bass, and guitar are the instruments that I play. The one that I will be talking about most is bass because I spend the most time on it, and it is currently my favorite to play. This spring, I bought a bass guitar from a guy who lived in Wichita. When I did this, it opened up a lot of things in my bass playing. I went from only having a standup bass at school to having a guitar at home. That is when I started learning many new things. One of the techniques I started to learn on the bass…

Gibson vs Fender the top two biggest guitar brands in the world. A huge debate is which one is the best or better. I will be telling you about 1 model of each brand. The Fender “Stratocastor” and Gibson “Les Paul”. I have a 1980 Les Paul and a 2007 Startocastor; and use both quite often. Let's start off with the tone. The Gibson has more of a thick, creamy tone all around, it can also scream if you want it to. Fender can have multiple tones because of the more options on the pickup selector,…

frequency variation strategy was able to reduce switching losses up to 20% over the conventional constant switching frequency SVPWM and DPWM2 techniques. This strategy also spreads peaky harmonic spectrum of the output waveform which may help in reducing acoustic noise, however, consequent introduction of lower frequency harmonics in the spectrum increase current THD which may heat up the motor and the magnet. Thus, in the future study, hardware validation will be done to test the impact of the…

This is analogous to an electrical system when electrical flow is opposed it causes a voltage applied to the system. In acoustics, the impedance is defined as the ratio of pressure to flow. 2.1.2 Micro Properties It is at the micro scale at which the material acts with the fluid. Micro properties are the geometry details that define the interaction between sound and the material…

Silence, after a hard day of school, all I wanted was to relax to the ballads of 50 cent, and I got silence. The bass must have shifted an exposed wire and shorted the amplifier, I fixed this a few times before that it almost became routine, but it was not a shorted wire. Troubleshoot, no solution, what could it be? My set up was almost perfect, lacking solely in achievable decibels. Second hand children science encyclopedias along with Questions and Answers books got me this far and for a…

1. Explain the difference between periodic and aperiodic waveforms. What are the visual differences? What are the characteristic sonic qualities of each? (2 points) Answer: A periodic waveform has repeatable patterns. Also, periodic waveforms have a tone. Most musical instruments have repeating periodic waveform. The periodic waveforms can also be found in bird sound and human vocal voice. However, an aperiodic waveform dose not have a repeating waveform and tone, like noise, the engine idling…

Assessment Gillam, S. L., & Ford, M. B. (2012). Dynamic assessment of phonological awareness for children with speech sound disorders. Child Language Teaching & Therapy, 28(3), 297-308. doi:10.1177/0265659012448087 Introduction: Gillam and Ford created a dynamic assessment to observe the associations concerning performance on a nonverbal phoneme deletion, word-level reading, and speech sound production that require verbal responses for school-age children with speech sound disorders. The…
