      Also reminded me of Chris Wolstenholme from Muse. Doesn't do it quite so aggressively anymore, but he would basically be head-banging for the whole 2-hour live show. His hair also used to obscure his eyes, so you know he was just completely in the zone and didn't even have to look at the notes he was playing.

I play a custom Yamaha 4-string and a Carvin 6-string bass and honestly feel the Glarry is a steal at that price. My friend actually got the same model Charles is playing here for $65 and change, and he's been super happy with it.

    My name is Yoshikage Kira. I'm 33 years old. My house is in the northeast section of Morioh, where all the villas are, and I am not married. I work as an employee for the Kame Yu department stores, and I get home every day by 8 PM at the latest. I don't smoke, but I occasionally drink. I'm in bed by 11 PM, and make sure I get eight hours of sleep, no matter what. After having a glass of warm milk and doing about twenty minutes of stretches before going to bed, I usually have no problems sleeping until morning. Just like a baby, I wake up without any fatigue or stress in the morning. I was told there were no issues at my last check-up. I'm trying to explain that I'm a person who wishes to live a very quiet life. I take care not to trouble myself with any enemies, like winning and losing, that would cause me to lose sleep at night. That is how I deal with society, and I know that is what brings me happiness. Although, if I were to fight I wouldn't lose to anyone.

    Thank you for showing that skill trumps pricy equipment hands down! Way to many gear snobs out there who think you need a $1000 + bass to sound good. Ive seen lots of guys pick up a cheap bass and totally rock that thing. This is a great video for young musicians who might get fooled by people thinking they need something expensive. Granted a more expensive bass will make it a little easier to play well. But nothing substitutes good old practice.

    Thought about getting a glarry fretless, I had a prepaid visa ready to get one. I've been saving for it and then I bought it. Waited a couple of weeks and nothing, so I called the card company and they said that all the money was still on it. So, I settled for some fretted one off amazon. Later after I bought the fretted one I realised that the glarry fretless was also on amazon. But, it was five dollars more than I had. But anyway, I'm happy with the electric off amazon. Thanks for being one of my main inspirations for bass.

    Charles, I’ve yet to listen to this video, but I’m glad you posted it. I have been binge watching the entire series of Game of Thrones and I think it might a fair challenge and perhaps a high view content video if you performed the entire GoT series score along with whatever variations you choose to add. I’ve written dozens and dozens of song/composition suggestions from the classical greats to modern era funk songs. You’ve only done one and it was the Paganini piece whose number I can’t think of at this moment. That was truly awesome and in my top 10 of your performance videos. Perhaps this suggestion might appeal to you. I’ll be back to listen to this video after I finish my GoT series.
