Nice! I've already watched a couple of vids of YYZ, but none seemed that relaxed. One thing I'd like to ask: How's the action on the SR5? From watching the fingers, I get the impression it must be very low.

The action is not low at all!! He let me play on the stingray sometimes so that I understand the tone comes from his technique and not the instrument. :eek:
And he plucks the strings so hard while still being in total control... Never cease to amaze me.

It's great that you found such a proficient teacher to take lessons from. That's a big advantage.

I was very lucky cause he is not officially teaching anymore. He got tired of kids that wouldn't practice and take their bass out only for lessons. He first told me he'd see my level and find me a teacher but since we came along very well I ended up being his one and only student :D :cool:

He might show up on the forum very soon. The ball family is growing:D
