I've never heard someone play like this....Amazing

In case any young people are watching.

I've seen muting technique used to refer to controlling note length, stopping unused strings from ringing, controlling dynamics and ghost notes. All the above are muting and they all sound different. Sometimes I see people suggest the wrong method of muting for a particular result. Seems to be some confusion about staccato and ghost notes in this thread.

Maybe it's better to start with the outcome you are trying to get and work out the best way to get there. Rather than just thinking it's a muting issue.

I've never seen it that way. Thank you for sharing.

Where did you get that from?

That bass sounds awful. So much string buzz. Staccato and legato are basics of music. Grade 1 or 2. Cant remember exactly as it was a very long time ago (48 years). 1 bar with 8 Quakers played legato would sound - dar dar dar dar dar dar dar dar, but, staccato would sound - da da da da da da da da. Any shorter and you're playing semi Quakers with tests in between. Hope this helps.
