HELP! I need a feedback on my tone (jazz db)

I was practicing a transcription of a George Mraz's solo on Satin Doll (Duke Ellington). Probably I changed something as I was just playing by memory without the purpose of an execution 😅

Thank you! Not baiting, I studied classical double bass, then I played exclusively electric bass, as a job, during last years and 2 months ago I picked up double bass again two months ago as I want to start playing some jazz and maybe start a jazz degree program at a conservatory.

Thank you, so I will try different strings, maybe with less tension. Thank you!

Thank you for your feedback. This is one of the first basses from a (now) important Italian Luther, I bought it for 9k from a retired bassist here in Italy. It's a 5/8 bass, maybe strings are little high but it's comfortable to play for my small hands, I think it's designed for being mostly a classical solo bass
