Sounds amazing, a true classic. I have a 1960 P with rosewood board and the maple sounds better IMO. Beautiful bass.
Sir Duke by stevie! Nate Watts on bass
nice to hear a real bass player doing a video like this. sounds awesome
zappa!
Sounds awesome
loving the distortion part! amazing!
Oh it’s in the description. Sir Duke. I gottcha.
Song at 2:45?
Is that Stevie Wonder with James Jamerson?
I can’t remember but the song is so familiar…
let get on the funky train here.. feelin mellow
Inca Roads!
d string 9 fret
what does your tat say?
what about the world famous dead-spots on this fender bass?
It’s not the same. John made his own puting together pieces of various P-basses. The Pickup + tone control were from a slab-body P-bass (only 20 were made; John smashed 3!), so that growl you hear is not usual to hear on other Precisions.
it’s just my opinion…well that’s not true he played a lot of different basses.and back in the day they didn’t cost this much money.
who told you that about Entwistle? So untrue! For instance, most of ‘Who Are You’ was recorded on 8 string Hagstrom… and he never used distortion to any great extent.
My god, that finish is fantastic.
John Entwistle played this same bass on every Who album. He had the most distorted bass sound ever.
green onions nice!
Someone who likes distortion.
…this makes my mojo go through the motions
sooooo much bass
Alder o Ash?
Not joking, this is the best sounding bass I have heard (no doubt the awesome player!)
