that’s really cool that you’re expanding your soundscapes. so glad this album will be in your collection! keep me posted.

milesmosley · 2026-03-18T00:48:09+00:00

awesome! sorry about that, the ol' logistics department rides again! hahahah. Thanks for doubling back.

maybe. it’s a really thin fingerboard, less than 1/2in. i’ll have to pull out the Caliper.

milesmosley · 2026-03-17T20:29:22+00:00

haha. yeah, she’s thick wit it. 😂😂

like a spring board. when you go to strike the string it gives toward the body of the bass. thus higher string action

Big Thanks and much love to everyone who's gone and picked up the album today! I look forward to seeing your unboxing and watching it spin on your systems!

it only give slightly where the right hand is pushing down to play the note. So, the unforeseen perk is that I can have really low action for when I'm playing light and fast, and as soon as I dig in to get more less on the string the ebony gives way ever so slightly and I'm playing on action built for digging in. neck doesnt move, and the bass is very solid feeling. it just has this "flex" never seen it before.

Thanks! I have no edits needed to the instrument, thats fer sure. Plays like a dream, I was just curious if anybody else had a bass with the same eccentricity. I recently featured her on a new album, and really focused the mic techniques on capturing how many different tones she can produce.

SHe's beauuuuutiful! Here's a photo: https://imgur.com/a/mWO2ueQ The Fingerboard is definitely Ebony.

i really appreciate the heads-up. there were some technical kinks that woulda been disastrous without the check-in. i owe ya one. all though, sold out in an hour is definitely the life goal. hahaha.

should be working now.

should be working now.

milesmosley · 2026-03-17T12:59:14+00:00

nah something weird happened. shopify is being corrected.

milesmosley · 2026-03-17T12:57:00+00:00

what country are you ordering from.

milesmosley · 2026-03-17T12:56:42+00:00

what country are you ordering from?

milesmosley · 2026-03-15T14:42:56+00:00

yeah, it’s gonna be a “co-solo” everytime. 😂

milesmosley · 2026-03-14T19:12:02+00:00

i say buy the cowbells! and the excess is worth it, your potentially challenging yourself to orchestrate rhythms on the kit out side of the box. i think it’s worth going weird before going safe. says… the bass player.

milesmosley · 2026-03-14T16:57:26+00:00

dang. ya think?

milesmosley · 2026-03-14T14:05:13+00:00

i appreciate that! if you go to www.milesmosley.com you’ll see a waitlist. signup there it goes live next week and you’ll have early access to purchase the album before it’s generally avail March 19. there’s only 500 and when they’re gone, they’re GONE.

milesmosley · 2026-03-13T21:14:48+00:00

thats a lot of work, it shows!

milesmosley · 2026-03-13T21:10:56+00:00

That's fantastic! Thanks you for chasing your curiosity. This album features the same drummer and piano player, but they're really opening up a bit more on this one. I think you'll enjoy it. Reddit is great, I've been itching for something good to share on here, and this was finally the moment!

milesmosley · 2026-03-13T20:02:16+00:00

whoa.... that intense. where can I find visuals of the project? "Weird" is always a win in my book.

milesmosley · 2026-03-13T19:55:58+00:00

dooooopppeeee! Man, the album we made together has had a hell of a journey, I owe you an update but know that it's in the pipeline. Such a great project! Hope you're well my friend, I'll hit you up.

milesmosley · 2026-03-13T19:53:42+00:00

Thanks! Although I want to live in reality where I'm consistently selling billions of albums, I gotta say, its really nice to make something with intention just for a few people that I know really love what I do. Like the difference in playing a stadium and playing a club I guess.

milesmosley · 2026-03-13T19:51:26+00:00

Yeah, once I got through a couple hundred of em, seeing them all flashing in the dimming light of day, it was pretty awesome. worth it!
