But he was playing above the fifth fret
.
He talked about Tobias being ‘Asgard’ ; maybe it should be Bassgard(sorry, I’ll just show myself out).

Amazingly skilled player. Weird his main gig is playing for Snoop Dogg and for church. Would love to hear him just groove.
On another note, if his strings aren't made of metal, how are they amplified? Special pickups? Piezo system?

I think his strings have a steel core. Bubby Lewis said Tom Kennedy was first inspiration and I can really hear it. I got the see Tom Kennedy and Dave Weckl about two years ago and it took a month to get my jaw off of the floor. Tom Kennedy is fast and clean in a way that only Bubby Lewis matches.
He plays LaBella tapewounds — roundwounds wrapped with nylon
