I always figured J Dilla'a smooth, subby low pass filter bass sound came from his Minimoog or one of the other many synths in is arsenal (E-Mu PK-6, MicroKORG, Electribe ESX-1...etc), but when I heard Questlove on Open Mike Eagle's podcast WHAT HAD HAPPENED WAS telling the story of the time Jay Dee showed him...my mind was blown. I highly recommend listening to that podcast, especially if you want to hear some Dilla stories coz Questlove is like a walking almanac of that era of his life.
Here's some links to where you can find the s04e10 ("Things Fall Apart") of the WHAT HAD HAPPENED WAS podcast, every season of this podcast is fkn amazing:
