Isn't the bass easier to play? four strings instead of six.

Four instead of six makes it easier? I can see by that ridiculous comment that you are just looking to start stuff up.

And this guy is calling me a troll. Wow.

Prince just had a great feel. He could do so much with one note. There was one outtake for a song that had all the instruments separated. I forgot the name. The bass track sounded sloppy to my ears, but when you hear it in the completed song it sounds perfect. It's that raw, dirty approach that makes him a great bass player, but technically I think he is a better guitar player.

G-Spot?

Yes, that's it.

The strings are thiker too. So not so easy to miss.

The wooh is on the one!

I went to BrownMark's You Tube page where he's thrashing on "Let's Work" and "Pow" (by Sir Laurence Graham). BrownMark was always my favorite funky P bassist. He could play what was on the record and add his own flair to it in concert.
