Ever since I first saw this clip I have been wondering what kind of bass Mr. Danko is using.
Here's the clip: http://m.youtube.com/index?desktop_u...&v=sjCw3-YTffo
RIP Rick

| | | | Rick's fretless was the Ampeg, modified with a Fender Precision pickup, which was certainly better that what it came with. I've played this bass (I knew Rick). It's nothing special, kind of a crappy bass really. Most of the earlier Band records were cut with his Jazz bass, not the Ampeg. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
