Agreed - I'd buy one.

I think it's a Robin - wich would make sense as the band were from Texas

To confirm what was said above, the answer from the man himself in an email to me today.


I[i]n the video I used a Robin 'Freedom' Bass. I found it in a pawn shop here in the Dallas area. Robin had ended production of basses in the 80's to focus on guitars. (They're a really small custom shop in Houston). After the song started getting more popular, they contacted me and made me another, but with a rosewood fretboard--and they also started production of basses agian. Both basses have been my main axes ever since--they're amazing instruments.

y'all be cool.
