Back in November, Jason posted a video of Sungha Jung playing The Beatles' "Blackbird". At the time the video was made Sungha was only nine years old. This evening I came across more videos of Sungha Jung, now 12, and I'm still in complete awe of him. You can view numerous videos of him through YouTube, but here are a few that I find rock solid or just plain sweet:
Sungha playing "All Along the Watchtower" (Jimi Hendrix) arranged by Walter Lupi.
I made a cardboard box upright bass using scrap oak flooring as the neck, and i made a pickup by breaking away the plastic casing of a Radio Shack Science Project Buzzer, and strings are weed whacker twine and the tuners are faucet-spiggots.
The cardboard bass plays great and sounds wonderful.
