He and Davie504 are the two most famous bass players on Youtube. Davie is more of an "entertainer" and Charles is more "artistic".

Every note is so perfect, it often sounds like it was played on a keyboard.

All the more because that instrument is fretless and his fingers need to be in EXACTLY the right spot every time.
Those plucked harmonics are to die for.
That bass he's playing is a Le Fay "Remington Steele".
Made by a couple of German brothers in the Hamburg area.
Great sounding instrument, especially in Charles' hands.
