my main bass is a cort Artisan 6 modded with new bartolini cbc humbucker and with the pickup in serie and a mid boost at 500hz i can get really close to that signature Ken smith sound. not bad for an instrument that 8 time cheaper. i recently bought another Cort, the C5. i intend to make it my funk, disco and soul bass. because as much as i like my cort A6, the tight string spacing (16.5mm) and the neck through construction mean that its not that great for slap bass. the cort C5 being bolt on and having the standard 18mm spacing will do just fine as the slap demo in that video has shown.
Now play your own stuff !!! Why copy somebody else??? Is that impressive or not..really means nothing but building your chops if any of it is going to stick.
I feel you missed the purpose of this cover. The original clip is old and of bad quality, this cover helps us hear how good the original version was and still is.
