Christian Mcbride playing his Pensa Fretless through his Glockenklang Soul / Epifani 410-115 rig.

Just perfect, IMHO, of course YMMV...

@JamesHart - dont move this to recordings - I really want to hear people's opinion on Christian's take on that classic song....

Does he use his middle finger? or just the index+ring finger.

Back to the thread : I like the effect on the solo, don't know what it is but it hads a little something that makes it more spacy.

It does appear that he plucks with just the index and ring finger, not using the middle finger...strange.

The effect sounds to me like a flanger.

i think he was using his index and pointer, and for some of the solo using his middle which i think is a wicket approach espically if you wanna stregnthen your other finger

Great clip... I saw this trio in person and Christian is one of the most tasteful cats out there today.

It actually makes sense in that the index and ring fingers are closer in length than index and middle, but it would be awkward just having the middle finger in between but not doing anything.
