    Think about giving this piece a name. It comes off more as a creative work than an instructional demo.

    It’s rare that you find something truly original on UA-cam, but that was art from sound. Unique.

    • @hierobartholo5940
      @hierobartholo5940 9 років тому +1

      +Semba Nkalamo this is a wrist band, most solo bassists use one to mute string and prevent any noise that shouldn't be there. If you accidentally bump on a string that should be muted, that will prevent the sound of the string.
