John Paul Jones tone on Celebration day

Hi, first post here. Been reading for about a year.

Does anyone have any idea about John Paul Jones' setup for the recent Celebration Day live release? I read the thread explaining his Manson bass. Is his sound largely attributed to his bass?

I was happily surprised when I first listened to it. Sounds more aggressive, growly, and "big" than older zeppelin stuff. Really reminds me of his stuff with Them Crooked Vulture. I am lovin it.

Do you guys like it or prefer the older sound? Any idea of his rig setup and settings?
