There are a series of these vids from Wooten's Groove Workshop. You should check 'em out.

EDIT: Hadn't seen this part. Very cool technique.

Really like Wooten. In fact I agree. I have always felt that way. I never liked playing a solo on string bass during jazz. I dont really like them either as a listener. Wooten is a beast.
