Nice, but why the cutaway?
Sorry, Frono. It was a snarky comment. She was not using the frets above the 12th in the video, which does not necessarily mean that she doesn’t need access for other tunes.
Not a problem. I wasn't thinking snark because I have cutaways that I play because I like them, but depending upon what and where I am playing I often fit the cliché that all the money playing bass is below the fifth fret. So maybe she needs it, but not for this performance?
I was wondering because there are people who believe that the tonal qualities of an instrument are different whether there is or isn't a cutaway so I was asking because you might have heard something that contributed to that belief/discussion.
