spongebob Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 I've been watching a bit of DP through the TV (the wonderful invention of Chromecast), in particular the 'California Jam' concert. First thought was that it looks like a hell of a gig! GH is playing a gold-coloured Fender P bass, same bass as he seems to be playing on all clips '74-onward after he stopped using the Ric (sadly). I couldn't see a Fender logo on the bass (unless I missed it) - had it worn away, or was Glenn using a copy? Whatever it was, it sounds really nice in the mix - just wondering what it is.

Woodinblack Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Looks natural rather than gold to me. No idea what though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassman Sam Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 GH used a P bass when I saw him with DP in the '70's. Roger Glover was using a Rick when I saw him pre GH days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
