He mainly played a 6-string Warwick Streamer. On the funkier tunes with a lot a slapping, he use a 4 string maple board Fender jazz (I think with EMGs). He used an acoustic 4 on a couple of tunes , too.

The clips I saw on YouTube just looked like a white 70's-era Fender Jazz bass.

That's right.... there were a few different basses I noticed he was using. I was referring to the white 5 string bass though. I should have been more specific.

That was a white 4 string Fender jazz. On other concerts he plays a white 5 string Performance bass.

I think they are all custom. If you have $2500 to start, you can have one too!

I did and it was soul sweet. He has great technique and imgination. What can I say, I look up to this man in the bass arena along with others, but just been looking for that bass. I guess I gotta get it made though.
