That's fleetwood mac with a killer bass sound. I have no idea if the line is doubled by the keys, but I really hope not, cause that tone is amazing.
I somehow suspect there's more to it than just that neck pu, it sounds a bit too sharp to my ears for that. Any thoughts?

I'm seriously impressed, it sounds like it's powerful and articulate enough so it could stand up well on it's own, but it does not dominate the mix. Really cool. Might also have something to do with the kinda loose and open way of mixing back then.

| | | | Hard to see what's going on with Mac, but that does look like a single coil there. Plus, he seems to be keeping his right hand really close to the bridge.
Excellent sound he's getting.
