Bass guitar and piano at the same time!!

"Whenever it's possible to bring a small amplifier, my Kurzweil electric piano, and vintage Rickenbacker bass guitar, I play them both for my concerts.  The sound is made by pressing or "thumping" the string behind the fret with the 3rd and 4th fingers together.  I have played many thousands of hours this way."
