    Like the first; not so much the second. Here's a third that I like partly because he's using a 981-class EEb: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZwZJ...=RDxCbfxEK-Y9A.

    Thanks for posting. I like that. I like the sound that he's getting on the EEb. Not sure what he was using on the other videos. The tuba works nicely with the guitar!

    I think there's a little too much fluttery stuff in the second one. Impressive, of course, but I have found the best bass solos tend to stay in the pocket.
