"Rolled R" Growl, or "Burp Tone"

Hello ∞Fractals;

Here are some examples of what I'm talking about:
1.
Weather Report: Procession. Victor Bailey starting at 2:00
Those nice, fat, growly notes on the E string Victor is playing

2. Frank Zappa: Pink Napkins. Scott Thunes starting at 1:38
The nice, legato descending bassline Scott plays

3. Brian Bromberg: All Blues. Starting at :28, and throughout
All those juicy, growly notes in the lower register
This All Blues sound is the string vibe on the neck of a contrabass. There is an intermodulation frequency if you push the string hard enough to create it.
