How high is your bass?

I've just been trying out the 'finger pointing at the eye' thing and it falls into place with what I've been working on with balance. Hence, I think I'll go with the slightly lower height. Thanks Sam and Ken for your input. I also watched this Gary Karr interview today (it's in four parts) and loved what he said when asked why he was so popular in Japan!
