Nice to see the cream bass with the maple fretboard is back, I love the look of that. I see he's been playing a surf green one lately. Must have been great to hear the rehearsal.
The neck on this one felt great to me. Just having a little play, I found the e string buzzed a bit past down the dusty end but apart from that it was very good imo. Not bad considering it hadn't been out of its case for a number of years. I last played it supposedly in the 90's and mateys not been in another band since then so I'm guessing it's not been out much.
I didn't think I need another bass.....now I'm not so sure.
Had a little jam around an old band mates house some months ago, ended up a bit drunk then left my specs there.
Popped over to collect them today and whilst having a cuppa me mate say's "I've a bass upstairs that you used to gig with...I'll just go bring it down"
Next he hands me this 1974.... but I can't remember ever using it. He is adamant I did.
Unfortunately I didn't have time to play through an amp but will return to have a blast with it soon.
I use a behringer u phoria UMC404 interface into MacBook Pro through garageband and use the loop function. connecting the interface to the Mac, I use a usb to usb-c adapter.
yeah, he never had the best voice live back then, imo, but I love this performance. Much better as a trio than when the bassist was moved to rhythm guitar for later album tours.
