There are a million ways to play the bass, but that's not consistent with Gary's system as I know (knew?) it.
A basic component of Gary's system is the notion that if the bass is standing by itself the player does not need to use muscular energy (or mental attention) to keep the bass standing. Using Gary's system begins with standing the bass up straight and stepping up to the bass.
Again, all errors are mine. Play on!
