I am a Bassist at an art school in Brooklyn, NY called Brooklyn High School of the Arts. I've been playing bass since early 2010- now 2011. Even freshman at my school who've only been bassist for a few months makes this guy look like a joke.
I've been playing bass for two years... My teacher would kill him for the way he's holding his bow. She spent months with me just to make sure I had the different angles down for changing strings and the proper way to shift your bow. Holy crap this video bugs me.
@xxangelsilencex Well he has a French bow, and that is the correct way to hold a french bow. However, you may be familiar with a German bow, like I am (it's far more comfortable in my opinion), and that requires a different bow hold.
@malaylay2407 it does sound like hes out of tune and also could u put a vid of how to do vibrato cuz ive never tryed it and my teachers never showed me either and i would like to learn how
...yeah...only move your fingers...you know.. limit THE WHOLE REST OF YOUR ARM...please refrain from teaching if you don't know what you're talking about.
you gotta be kidding me

I am a 12 year old bass player and I am actually in tune. He is nothing I wish that he had never embarrassed bass players
