Not precisely a guitar solo, but more impressive to the likes of me. Involves some dynamic retuning.

But the king of retuning a bass is Michael Manring, seen here with a Zon Hyperbass. Each of its four strings has a lever at each end that can be used to tune between two almost-arbitrary pitches. That's four pitches per string, for a total of 256 distinct tunings available almost instantly.

I know I'll never get to Manring's level on the bass, so I've been thinking about getting myself one of these things. Pretty expensive, though.



Victor Wooten is a freak of nature. I loves me some Flecktones!

He loves ZZ Top-supposedly he's been baggering Billy Gibbons to do him some special drops for the show for years now.

Yup, that's about right.

I'll put in another vote for Alex Zivojinovich (aka Alex Lifeson) of Rush. And a nod to Geddy Lee on the electric bass, while I'm at it.

Like all things, taste is in the eye (or ear) of the beholder... Leo Kottke is a virtuoso, no doubt. But his music has never done much for me...
