I dont see any problem with thumbs down...because he is using double thumb technique.

[UcommonAdmiration]

[ucookinwithbutta956x]

how much are fodera basses

[chriskhalaf123]

the one he's using is around $8500... His Monarch is about $6500

[Romans10Verse9]

Wait, do you know where to purchase a Yin Yang bass? I wouldn't be up to saving that much but I didn't know they were available.

[jakegreenburger]

you can get one made for you by fodera, they are a lot of money though, thats the only think holding me back

[Camaro6310]

@Romans10Verse9 They are only available through Fodera (It is a Fodera Monarch bass), The yin-yang is victor's design and you have to custom order it. And yeah, they cost a pretty penny.

[polishpirate123]

Alot!

cheapest one ive seen was 2900$

[smiercbohaterom]

i don't know

[dannyfatboy08]

[StairwayToHeaven666]

is that imrpovisation ?

[machetesteve]

no its "the lesson" off of his new album palmystery.

[justaman22]

That was magnificent!! I first learned of this song on Vic's new CD Palmistry and wanted to learn it and later found out in his book The music lesson he goes over how he develops this song its so cool!

[Romans10Verse9]

No he doesn't. He doesn't talk about this or any of his songs in that book. Amazing book by the way. But at the begginning of each chapter he puts a measure and if you put them all together you get "The Lesson" drawn out. I haven't done it yet but I read about it on here.

[justaman22]

Actually he does. He was in my area a few weeks ago and said it himself.

[Romans10Verse9]

I have the book though man. All it gives you of "The Lesson" is measures.

[BaS2180]

Magnifico!

[whykatera81]

the greatest!!!!! the michael jordan of bass!

[ninjabmx]

LoL

Melhor do Mundo !!!
