bassatnight Posted September 26, 2010 Posted September 26, 2010 Anyone catch Simply Red last night on ITV? Was wondering if anyone could confirm the bassist was playing a 50th Aniversary Fender Jazz? Lovely sounds... How could Hucknall call the band Simply Red as he was the only original member playing...? Quote
Bigwan Posted September 26, 2010 Posted September 26, 2010 Both the basses I saw were Sadowsky's. A natural standard 5 with maple board and a red 4 with rosewood board and matching red headstock. Didn't see the whole show though. Quote

SS73 Posted September 26, 2010 Posted September 26, 2010 Watched the whole thing and thoroughly enjoyed it, although I'm not a fan I can't help but respect the guy, very talented and totally professional. Did think the bass player was a little stiff though. Glad to hear he wasn't playing a real Fender as I would end up eating my hat after swearing you couldn't get one to sound better. Quote
