Live yea he’s the lead instrument more often than not. But he records all the bass parts in his music. So he has 5 strings at least and I’ve seen him with 6 strings in some of the flecktones videos before he had the compito 5 string fretless basses.

Victor’s so good, he didn’t even realize he was playing bass😂

I dont think anyone will out play victor, he is a legend❤

I've seen several Namm bassists but Victor is hands down the best!

The best sounding fodera so far.

Johnny too bad I was thinking it sounded quite J Bass-ish. I have a J Bass and I’m a big fan of Marcus Miller and listening to this I was thinking the exact same thing

That's why a lot of us can't stop! That's fun and passion playing! Respect Mr. Wooten

My favorite bass player of all. Victor is such a humble person to meet. You would never think he's is a great as he actually is. A true gentleman.

the late prince would be stoked to hear how victor jammed on his song! prince would audition bass players with a larry graham tune,and see if they could expand on it. he would leave the room,and come back 10-15 mins later. he wanted too hear how the bass player could play one of larry's tunes with a different vibe..

I've never known he existed until about 3 months ago now I can't stop listening to him he's great I love his funky d album and more recently you can't hold a groove without a pocket

Jesus Christ. Sorry man but have you been living underground? You never heard of Wooten until 3 months ago? Damn.

Victor Wooten is over flowing with talent. One of the best bass players alive...

they did a great job sounding like a Fender Vic is the man.

That's a fat jazz bass sound, i'm in love!!

I love to hear Victor on Seymour Duncan’s Dual coils 🔥 🎸

Fodera with dual coils are the bestttt!! And Wooten is the man

NAMM chops right there. Go Vic!!!

This Fodera sounds amazing!

One of the Greatest.

classic line from "Lets Work" played by Prince.

He is playing Prince's his bassline on Let's Work

Victor has an enviable understanding of TIME...

Yesssssssssss. Big smile You give me !!!

This bass sounds like it’s hollow inside. Amazing sound

I think Vic should do a video where he walks into a second hand shop, picks up the worst bass he can find and then proceeds to make it sound AWSOME!

He's a beast on those strings! Killin' Prince's funky song "lets work" from the album Controversy

thx for the video !

Loved that 'Word Up' groove!

聞き惚れるね。

Master! No comment! It's Wooten.

Lo máximo Victor Wooten.

It's Prince "Let's work".. Then he kicks "Word up"..

This groove is most certainly straight from the bass solo in Room 335 by Larry Carlton and Lee Ritenour. Don't believe me? Check it out! Bass solo starts at 4:20 Larry Carlton & Lee Ritenour - Room 335 @ live 720p 4-3 HD

The song is "Lets work by Prince Roger Nelson...

What pickups are equipped in this bass?Sound Great!

His rhythm @-@

What top wood is on that monarch? Looks fantastic

I know it's more or less the bass line from "lets work", but i think he's also mashing some other prince songs in there.. So what's this riff at 6:34 ?.. or is that still the same song just something he added to it?

When you grow up on an instrument and create a musical language it becomes so comfortable it seems like part of you. I see Victor with his fretless, 5 string, and upright bass every now and then, but when he plays his 4 string it just seems completely natural and as close to completely natural as you get for a musician.

More meat. But still the same clarity as Mr Wooten's own bass. It would make a great second bass for Mr Wooten.I have heard his bass reall. And upclose at Warwick basscamp 2014.
