Hello Charles. I remember reading about Bradetich a while back being taught to play bass from a cellist, and I thought that was pretty cool.
In my Sankey edition Simandl book, Sankey also recommends a 4 finger approach at times.
Have you or any of the others at UNT done any experimenting with 5ths tuned bass? If so, how do you like it?
