Our friends at Soundhouse, Ashdown's official distributor in Japan, have released a fantastic new YouTube video featuring bassist Leon Nishizuki, taking a closer look at the Ashdown PRO-DI and John Myung Double Drive.
More than just a product demonstration, the video offers a great insight into Leon's approach to bass playing and tone. He talks about how he first got into bass, what inspires his playing, and why Ashdown has become a regular part of his setup following his first collaboration with the brand.
Throughout the feature, Leon shares his philosophy on creating bass tones that cut through the mix, explains how he builds his signal chain, and discusses the the differences between crafting sounds for live performance and creating content for social media. He also encourage players to embrace their own style and not be afraid to stand out, particularly those who enjoy more aggressive and expressive playing techniques.
It's an engaging watch for any bassist, combining honest discussion, practical tips and plenty of great playing along the way.
A big thank you to Soundhouse Japan and Leon Nishizuki for another excellent Ashdown feature. Be sure to check out the full video below:
