Thundercat is one of the most shredding bass players alive today - what am I getting myself into?

“Funny Thing” is the most popular track from Thundercat’s 2020 album “It Is What It Is,” featuring his beastly signature 6-string bass sound.

Watch the video to see if I was able to fake it okay on 4-string, and how my bass line compared to the original. (hopefully not terrible)

I had to dig into Thundercat more, here's a full mega video on why he's awesome: youtu.be/vMD3ZRi5RfA
