After watching that, I was wondering... where did the standard two-finger plucking method originate? Was it really from flamenco guitar? If so, are Bass guitar and flamenco guitar techniques interchangeable?

sell out.

Ok, can someone explain to me why Frank would ever fire such an amazing musician? What happened exactly?

What were his tips on building speed? Also, can someone elaborate on his 2 finger plucking style? Like, what did he practice in order to get to that speed? I'd get the tape, but nobody around me sells this thing.

hmm... good point there. kinda like what geddy lee does.

i'm not sure if i agree with you on this. i mean, look at the pick. it's essentially down/upstrokes --- hitting the string twice. when playing with 2 fingers, its about the same -- except it's more about workingout/excercising the two fingers you're plucking with to achieve the shredding speed a...

is this possible? i've heard Juan Alderete's work on Racer X and he does pretty fast stuff with only two fingers. i wanna know, do you guys think its possible to go as fast as say, Billy Sheehan, with only the use of 2 fingers plucking at the strings?

anyone?

i can't quite see, but at the end when he's playing the roots real fast is he using two or three fingers?

can you (or anyone who has seen the video) please elaborate on his alternating two finger technique? i would greatly appreciate this. EDIT: oh and what were his tips on building speed?

i'm referring to the 1 PUP sterlings.

haha my bad. its a sterling. man both just look too similar!

I'm seriously thinking about getting one of these. I think i'm in love with it. however, before i make the purchase, are there any disadvantages to this bass? i've heard many good things about it, but what are some bad things about this thing? (this is a used sterling, it only has the bridge pickup)

bump for additional opinions/info/discussion/etc. :) I found something that has caught my attention Ben Kenney: “If I can’t do it with that Lakland Joe Osborn, I probably can’t do it. I have yet to feel like I need more than passive electronics. I’m not much for having a computer in my...
