What bass is this?

http://youtu.be/MfHOAyMObo4

My two main basses are a P that I recently changed to a P/J with Aguilars, and a Fender Musicmaster that I put a Mike Lull tbird pickup in the P position. With these I can get a huge range of tones, but the sound you get in this video is a very elusive one for me that I just can't dial in. Curious as to what it is!

Also, I love your dancing.

The Google seems to agree with this:

Great dancing and outfit. Roger gets a huge +1 for wearing a cape on TV. That is something I would certainly consider doing, but probably wouldn’t have the balls to actually pull off. :^)

Oh man, that's beautiful.

I'm pretty sure I've gotten that bass as an answer to a question before... Hopefully it wasn't to the same video and I had forgotten...

There are a couple of vintage non-fancy wood ones on eBay between $1,500- $3,000. I was actually expecting them to be a little more.

Yeah that's my late '66 Coronado II Wildwood.
