The ART of BASS Traditions Are a Good Place to Start the ART of BASS Traditions are a good place to start. We just choose not to stay there. Our years of experience and the desire for perfection drive our unending fine tuning and deve- lopment of our bass models. We constantly get feedback from our customers, who are professional bassists and bass enthusiasts all over the world, and we use that feedback as inspiration in our quest to build the perfect bass. We build instruments that are ergonomic because the playing experience needs to be comfortable. We build basses that resonate deeply, with clear voices and tremen- dous sustain because the player’s voice deserves to be heard. We build basses with low action and impeccable playability because the player needs to be able to execute their intentions without resistance. We’ve built more than 1800 custom instruments, and each of their happy owners can attest to our commitment to excellence. We know that highclass wood is the key to a great bass. We have a passion for coll- ecting and building with rare and fascinating woods. Marleaux Bass Guitars takes great care in the proper storage, drying and treatment of these woods to ensure their unique sonic characteristics. We then tailor each bass to the needs of the customer by using the exact piece of wood for every aspect of its construction. We make bassists’ dreams come true! In every phase of the construction of a bass, we allow time to achieve for the best results. We handle the woods carefully and treat them with the great sensibilities of an artisan and craftsman. This is how music instruments that allow a feel for detail are made. Thanks to all Marleaux users pictured in this catalogue.

For 20 years the NJW has delivered world class performances and music education to Nashville audiences and jazz fans around the country and the world. 2020 has been a challenging year for cultural institutions everywhere as they seek to fulfill their missions and remain financially viable.

As with other charity events, the event is moving online this year as a virtual event. On October 24, 2020 the Workshop will host Jazzmania as an online jazz party and evening of world class jazz performances.

  • SMV: Stanley Clarke/Marcus Miller/Victor Wooten
    SMV - Stanley Clarke - Marcus Miller - Victor Wooten In an era where sports fantasy leagues are all the rage comes a real-life historic teaming that serious music fans and bass players have long dreamed of. SMV unites music titans Stanley Clarke, Marcus Miller and Victor Wooten. This unique alliance of three generations of bass gods has been on chat room and fan gathering wish lists for over 15 years, kept alive by periodic statements from all three that schedules permitting they would give it a go. Finally, in October 2007, with Clarke set to receive a Lifetime Achievement Award from Bass Player magazine, at its annual Bass Player Live! event in New York City, Miller and Wooten made the time to attend and induct their mentor. The ensuing VSOP jam not only blew the minds of the 900 in attendance, it cemented for the trio their inherent musical chemistry and thus the viability of pursuing the project in earnest. As a result, in January 2008, SMV entered the studio to record a CD and put together a summer/fall tour. The three recall their first performance and the sessions for their disc. Says Clarke, “The second we started ‘School Days’ at the Bass Player event I knew it was historical for us and the audience. Marcus and Victor are so intuitive, and we each found our range. Marcus was slamming down the groove and Victor started playing these harmonics chords, and I was like, man, this is so bad-ass! When you have that amount of knowledge, respect and love it always creates clarity in the music.” Wooten admits, “To work with Stanley and Marcus has been a dream come true for me.

  • Kinesthetics by Bill Milkowski, Jazztimes
    SCOTT KINSEY: Kinesthetics by Bill Milkowski, JazzTimes Since 1991, keyboardist Scott Kinsey has been the secret weapon of Tribal Tech, one of the premier bands on the fusion scene. A remarkably distinctive soloist with a unique harmonic sensibility and a wholly inventive approach to synthesizers, Kinsey has an uncanny knack for making technology sound organic and orchestrating in the moment. As Tribal Tech ringleader explains, “Scott has been such a big influence on the direction that Tribal Tech has taken. Before we met him all we really had was a band that played tunes the way they were written out. But Kinsey was a major reason for us getting to that point of being able to throw the charts away and just jam right in the moment, because he could do it so well and pull it off every time. It wasn’t until I played with Scott that I realized how loose it can be and still sound totally together. Because he would be pulling out so much cool stuff to listen to that you didn’t need a note of written music. Kinsey’s such a great improvising musician but he also brings a real sense of form and harmony to it so that you can just jam freely and know that it’s always gonna sound cool.” Whether he’s improvising strictly in the moment with loops, concocting provocative tones and textures or carving out new sonic territory on his Nord Lead synthesizer, Kinsey’s presence invariably elevates the proceedings of every situation he finds himself in.
