Explain why not!
It's the same reason why some bass players moved to the bass guitar in the 50's - 60's and some stayed with the upright bass.

So yeah, forget the number of strings discussion.. but it's nice to see so many bass players doin' their thang on stage. Enjoyable video, despite not really understanding what the compere was on about lol!!!

Didn't really see anything 'new' being tackled though.. pretty much the same slap and tap moves the way through. Not really a criticism, more that that I am panging to see someone do something a bit different.. like lay the bass down and play it with their.....






nose.

i'll admit that sort of stuff must take ages to learn and a lot of skill to do but that sport of stuff don't appeal....

i personally play bass to do the low ntes underpinning songs keeping it together if i wanted t do some wierd high noted "showing off" i'd play guitar.....

sorry if i up set anyone but thats my view n that whole type of playing....
