Victor Wooten funk on a Sire Jazz bass.

[bubinga5]

Part of the Studio Jam's series. Its Curtis Harmon on drums, James Loyd on keys.  

For me this is Victor Wooten at his fingerstyle best. The detail in his playing is insane and so very musical.. 

Get past the double thumbing and he lays down the groove... His finger style solo at 5.40 is just.. !

Very Tower Of Power-ish groove, nice.  

I massively prefer Vic's tone on the Sire. It actually has some low end! I've always loved his playing, but hated his tone. His Foderas are works of art, but they've always sounded way too thin and snappy for my taste. Maybe his mate Marcus could put in a good word for him with the Sire people.

Victor's tone on this Sire does nothing for me. Too much clank for my liking.

There are some nice Jaco licks there.
