Hey guys, how's it going? Scott Devine here from Scottsbacelessons.com and I'm back with another episode of the SPL podcast.

And today we've got the awesome Michael Manring with us. Now this interview is a little bit different because it was actually done on Facebook live.

Over on Facebook, obviously. We streamed it live a few weeks ago. But it was so awesome, I need to release this as a podcast,

which is what we're doing today.

Michael Manring is an innovator on the base.

He has changed the way people play the base.

You know, we all know Jack O'Pestorius and how he did the same and those guys,

but I really do put Michael up with those guys in the way

that he's developed the base and what he does with it. It's just something, he's always been a

really unique player. And I think that the importance of his, you know, of what the work he's done

is just right up there with the best players in the world as he is one of the best

place players in the world you know he's really shaped the way that people play the

bass today and he does the whole solo bass thing where he goes out and gigs on his own he's

also worked as a studio musician he's just you know I'll let the interview do the

do the talking for me but I'm absolutely certain that you're

going to love today's interview. Now, if you're listening to the podcast on iTunes, I'll send you

all of my base love if you subscribe and leave a review, as that really helps us get the word out

about these interviews, guys. And I really think there's so much to be learned from listening to

great bass players, such as the guests that we have on the show much to be learned from listening to great bass players,

such as the guests that we have on the show.
