Hard to say; it seems the recording device is overdriven.
But I think his setup with JMT is P-bass, OC-2 and Ampeg SVT...

You sure its just not the bass overpowering the mic on the camera?

Thats what it sounds like to me.

Sounds like a P bass through a SVT to me........ bro. perfection.

WTLI setup was his P bass (TI flats) to an SVT.

An older trio video (AOL) had him sporting Ashdown heads through older Epifani T series cabinets.

overdriven SVT, IMO...no octave...
Pbass + SVT = perfection in rock tone

Hmm, I don't remember the bass sounding like that on my copy of the DVD, but then again it's been a while since I watched it.

Pino's JM set up there is SVT with 8x10 (natch) + vintage 60s (or signature) P bass with flats as stated above.

From the recording of the show that vid was talking about:

I already knew about the svt and p with flats. i was talking about the overdriven sound.

sorry for the unprecise information in my post

the overdriven sound is the SVT

The SVT is the main reason it sounds so sweet...... but he's doing something with those avalon pre's also to get that killer grit.
I just wish I had his hands. They're friggen monstrous eh?

I would almost bet that the Avalon sends the clean signal and the SVT is mid-heavy in the EQ for the grit and mic'd. The blend would be pretty delish.
