He has Medium and Long scale Series I basses. https://youtu.be/urw0uvPUHCc https://youtu.be/Kuq515X3RoI https://youtu.be/EiEct1UwB6U flpete1uw Senior Member Username: flpete1uw Post Number: 523 Registered: 11-2011 Posted on Friday, July 17, 2015 - 8:21 pm:    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.

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.
