Renaud Garcia Fons

Hi! Its Friday! i love Friday...
So, lets check a video from Reanud Garcia Fons so you can have some good stuff to hear this weekend. It´s true, i'm not posting an electric bass video. To be honest I will post more of this double bass videos. You will see that some really cool rock and funk bassists started their careers in this instrument. In the end, it's as good as an electric bass (in my point of view it can be better sometimes).
Watch the video and give me your opinion, what do you like more, electric bass or double bass?


P.S. I will update the "Bassists directory" with this musician so don't forget to check it out.
