I am a bassist from the south of England. I been playing for 7 or so years, and teaching privately for the last year. I enjoy experimenting with new techniqiues and trying to coax new sounds out of the bass. My general playing style largely incorperates fingerstyle with plenty of harmonics, tapping and chords. In particular, I love creating the illusion of more than one instrument playing, with a solo bass line. I have just recently started doing youtube videos and hope that you get something out of my clips and tutorials.
