Greg is really a monster playing that bass, very smooth sound !!

@luvbasses5487 2 года назад

Actually the body contours happened on the Precision at the same time as the Stratocaster debuted in mid ‘54. Early 54’s were still plank bodied. 1956 was the year the Alder was starting to be used as the tone wood. That one is Ash which makes it an early ‘56. Cool piece no doubt and great playing bro!

Hello Greg, As always you do these bass's proud. I really like the way that you demonstrate these fine instruments. It has got to be so cool to be able to play all of those wonderful vintage bass's. Wouldn't be nice if they could talk & tell you there story's of there life. Oh well stay safe and well and keep Rocking. Signed John Gregory / Zepbass from Munster Indiana.

I like how Greg plays his Bass like a guitar; I dont play Bass, but watching Gregs style makes me wanna try.

@BrileyNeyenhuis 2 года назад

Do you mean he plays his bass like a guitar referring to his sense of melody? Because as far as technique goes, he seems to be 100% bass player.

Very cool to see Greg back and flying solo Think he could do Thumping Thursday solo and give Lemmo the day off Hope that what ever is going on with Michael's family turns out to be ok

@coreycarlson4789 2 года назад

Great sounding bass. I see why Sting likes them so much. I think he has a 55 and a 57.

@hubriswonk 2 года назад

At some point someone put a more functional bridge on that bass, but it appears to have the stock bridge now.......I have a Sting bass that plays amazingly but the stock bridge would not stay in tune and would not allow the action to be set low enough.

@frankb5728 2 года назад

what's up with the high string? it looks like it's almost hanging off the fretboard, are my eyes playing tricks?

@gregcoates4281 2 года назад

With those two barrel saddles sometimes the strings have a mind of their own,though it played great!

@Smagledorf 2 года назад

@jurgengosch3915 2 года назад

I didn't know that any pre-'57 models had contours. COOL. Flatwounds would be better in my opinion.

@mortensen1961 2 года назад

They did it from '54-'56 if I remember right. . .

@carolinevanderwyk4878 2 года назад

What do recommend for nice strings on a p bass

@gregcoates4281 2 года назад

Depends upon what time you’re going for? I really like the “angry piano” sound of stainless steel,but it seems that most people gravitate towards nickel roundwounds or flat wounds-both have their defining characteristics.

I looked it up...if we divided all US money evenly, we'd all get about $300,000. So, anyone with more than that is doing so at the cost of others living without. Norm's Rare Guitars sells to greedy assholes who cause poverty.
