During a stop at Gibson’s New York City Showroom, bass virtuoso Bill “The Buddha” Dickens put on a speed-funk clinic with his Kramer Disciple. Watch his mind-blowingly fast runs and you’ll understand why he’s worked with everyone from Steve Morse and Randy Newman to Janet Jackson and George Michael. Right now, Dickens is on the road with Meters guitarist Leo Nocentelli, as part of The Meters Experience. Following Dickens’ turn in the spotlight, Leo got out his ES-335 to jam along with “The Buddha” of bass.
