Grooving And Soloing AT THE SAME TIME! 2 Instant Upgrades (Mega Easy)

I think you will probably find Victor Wooten on not only most bass player's top ten list, but on most musician's.

There is something so deep about his energy that makes the bass secondary to his music, despite being one of the most recognizable voices the instrument has ever known.

I'm extremely proud to call him a friend, and always come away from any time we spend together having learned something I never saw coming.

Having spent my entire career listening to and learning from his music, there is a huge amount of it in my playing (even though I'm not known for slap bass at all), and that's what I want to share with you here: 2 simple concepts that, when brought together, can help you take a step towards the greatness that is Victor's unrelenting pocket no matter what the context.
