Ehrler Makes It Two! Wins Ouachita By 1-05

So far, 2010 has turned into the year of streaks. On the BASS side, there's Skeet Reese, who made five consecutive Top 5s, two of which were wins. On the FLW Tour, Bryan Thrift scored three consecutive Top 5s, one of which was a win.

Then there's Brent Ehrler, who didn't string together a series of high finishes, but today achieved the oh-so-rare mark of winning two tour-level events in a single season.

Ehrler began the day as the leader at the Ouachita FLW Tour, but his dreams of a second tour-level win seemed to fade when he saw the water had dropped another foot out of the bushes. Meanwhile, crazy Memorial Day boat traffic ran willy-nilly around the lake and clearly, things had changed.

Ehrler managed to cobble together an 11-11 limit, but he didn't think it would be nearly enough against the likes of Ouachita expert Scott Suggs, fishing's "Million Dollar Man" David Dudley, or even wildcard Keith Monson or two-tour pro Ish Monroe.

But the entire Top 5 struggled, and in the end, Ehrler's limit was more than enough, and he sealed his second Tour win of the season.

If i play a 4 string bass, how hard will it be to play a 6 string bass?

I am currently playing on a 4 string bass for 5 months and my dad said in a year he will either buy me a 4 string gibson or a 6 string bass. Which should i play? Is it hard to switch?


The only differnce will be mostly in the right hand since the strings are slightly closer. Their is no adjustment whatsoever besides what I have explained.
The 6-string will gives you more versatility due to the 2 extra strings although, 5-strings are more popular due to the fact that they have the added B string on the bass side for more depth. I would suggest a 5-string but, its your choice.

What are some good songs using a 6 string bass?

I just got a six string and i only know one song utilizing the high C. I need some more songs. I have been playing for 6 years so the difficulty dosent really matter, i just need some more.


Les Claypool played a six string on his album Sailing the Seas of Cheese,
Jerry Was a Race Car Driver is played on a six string.

Stu Hamm uses one for most of his stuff...

Same for John Pattitucci on a lot of his solo stuff.

Most guys use six string basses so they can play faster by not having to go up the neck so much to hit those higher registers.

By having that extra string they simply go there as opposed to climbing up the neck on the g string.

Other than that its usually just a show-pony type of thing.
