We've recently reconnected with Freeman James and thought you all might enjoy some links to his bass solos from the past. He has Medium and Long scale Series I basses. https://youtu.be/urw0uvPUHCc https://youtu.be/Kuq515X3RoI https://youtu.be/EiEct1UwB6U |

Wow! Susan, thank you forsharing this! I never saw that kind of finger style playing before! He gets a lot different sounding effects from it. Very cool, |

Nice links! Had never heard of him, but I love the fact that he has total control of his bass while singing lead. Much easier said than done. |
