Upright or Electric?

[Bassmann135]

I just listened to the Lionel Hampton version of Giant Steps by John Coltrane off the album The Best of Lionel Hampton and I couldn't tell if the bassist Tom Warrington was playing on electric or upright. It sounds very electric, but it could just be a very well miked upright. Anybody know?

Don't have the album. But Tom Warrington has a web page, and an e-mail address. Ask him.
