Where is Charles Bertroud?

Charles isn't here. He's busy woodshedding, recording videos and doing sessions while we're doing this...

Takes an ungodly amount of hours and hard work to be able to play like that. I have to imagine that anyone who doesn't appreciate it or has something negative to say about it, well, it's because they can't play like that.
I'm glad his hard work didn't go to waste and he found a way to be successful and make some money with it.
It's better than the other 99% of YouTubers out there, doing "how to" vids,...who have no idea what they're doing or talking about.
(Why does everyone feel the need to make a video these days?)
 
I love that YouTubers like Charles Berthoud, Davey504, and others are making bass cool, hip, and relevant for a new generation. If a kid decides to pick up a bass because of Davey, awesome! If a kid decides to pick up bass because of Fieldy in Korn, awesome.


Who made any of us judges and gatekeepers?

While we sit around our little clubhouse and TalkBass, they go out and PlayBass.

My favorite bass YouTube channels are those of Nathan Navaro and Ivan Carranza.
