Congrats on moving to a three-fingered approach to bass-lines in 5ths. It's all that's required. Chords are a different story, but three relatively equal fingers, each with independent tendons, coupled with easy hand movement, make tapping a breeze (in 5ths or 4ths).
Cheers.
Thanks so much for stopping by and listening, Greg, I appreciate it!
As you say, chords are a different story, and I need a lot of work in both hands on chords, and the pinkys will get into the mix soon as well. I use them a lot for piano, and if nothing else, they'll be another appendage to do another line, the way Don Schiff gets so many voices going with all of his fingers. Lots to aspire to!
Thanks again, Greg!
