Classic, Rock, Funk, Soul, Flea, Louis Johnson, Bernard Edwards, Pino, 70-ies, 80-ies, 90-ies, now..., Older is better though...

I think of Paul S. Denman and Johnny B. Gayden...I'm old.

--Frankie Goes to Hollywood - Black 'Ray w/white pickguard & maple neck in the "Relax" video
--Tony Levin
--Louis Johnson
--Pino Palladino's amazing '80s fretless tone
--Weak G string tone on my '92 StingRay due to poor polepiece alignment

Finger Funk and slapping.

Also, the natural/maple SR4 I'm dying to get

 

[number six]

1977
3+1
Leo's finest moment - 5 J's and 5 P's and an SR4 - I bought the SR4
Fender quality gone to pot
Pino and Paul Young
Chic and Bernard
Soundman racing over - 'what the hell's that? - brilliant!'

btw I re-plated the nickel and chrome - is it still 'all-original'?
and what's a pre-EB '77 SR4 in great cond worth?

Kind of 70s Jazz bass look. My fav one bass.

 

[PilbaraBass]

I used to think "Louis Johnson", "slap bass"

the same still holds true...

but I've learned that the bass can do a whole lot more...
it's a powerful POWERFUL pick bass and has a great fingerstyle, too...

the feel is not my thing...but these basses are indeed sweet to those who love them...I enjoy listening to them

 

[jdieh1]

Hardcore music and pop punk also.

Only because I know that a couple of the local bands' bassists use them

I just think bass happiness. I've yet to find a bass that itches that GAS instinct more than my trusty Musicman.
