    How did you get into duo playing? I've been playing duo gigs a bit lately and its really fun, but that 7th string makes it sound incredible!

    • @PeteSmyser
      @PeteSmyser Місяць тому

      Glad you enjoyed the video! I started at about 18 years old performing solo and sometimes duo at restaurants. I've always been interested in performing in those settings and embraced the challenge of making the music sound full and complete despite the limitations involved with performing solo or duo. The 7-string extended bass range really helps in those settings!
