Thanks for this video, it's very helpful. You've always been a well respected practitioner of the instrument. Could you please do a video discussing the "action" the hight of the string from the fingerboard? I've always been partial to a higher action but i've seen some people with their's higher than mine. Then some have the strings very close to the fingerboard. Either way I always face difficulty playing on a bass with string extremely high or low just because I'm used to my string height

[@EnriqueSampaio]
