The guy is amazing on just about any stringed instrument. I've seen better videos of him playing bass so don't judge him on this one (even though it's not bad by any means!). Heck , the guy can slap a guitar like a bass and it sounds killer.

| | | | That was far from amazing bass playing. And if you asked him, I am sure he would agree with me.
Interesting watch, though. Not trying to be a killjoy, just not "amazing" bass playing, kind of a mislabeling. |

But can he play bass? We still don't know.
I liked the vid though. |
