The truth about acoustic basses from a PhD in bass guitar

I recently had the opportunity to chat with Dr. Denson Angulo about acoustic bass. As a holder of a doctorate in bass performance, he’s not just another YouTuber hack (like someone I know), he’s the real deal! In this video, we discuss the merits of acoustic bass and compare it to upright bass.
