BassBus Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 Why would anyone want a twelve step program with bass guitars? Cannot compute. Quote
odysseus Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 Hot damn! There's some serious 4string goodness right there! Quote
Subbeh Posted July 26, 2015 Posted July 26, 2015 (edited) Wow, a real embarrassment of riches, each one nicer than the last! Always get the impression he'd be a good guy to have a pint and talk bass with Edited July 26, 2015 by Subbeh Quote
ForestPoetry Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 (edited) Why no Wals? That's his best tone IMO.I really don't get why he doesn't play them anymore. His playing was at it's zenith during the Wal era too IMO...but then when it comes to Rush I have a huge musical hard-on for all the 80s stuff, especially Power Windows through Presto when he was playing the Wals. I really like the Steinberger sound on Grace Under Pressure too though. Edited July 27, 2015 by ForestPoetry Quote
Sammers Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 The good thing about being a lefty is that I can't get too jealous when watching videos like this! But that White '59 P with matching headstock... jesus!! Pretty sure he brought the '63 black Jazz with matching headstock from Bass Direct, I think Geddy sent them a picture when he got it and they put it up on FB. His tech will never be short on work though, eh? Quote
PJS Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 I never knew there were '59 P's with matching headstocks! These videos are great fun. But I also wonder why he never even mentions Wal anymore. His Wal tone is the pinnacle for me as well, and at the time (as a teenager) I had no idea what he was playing but knew that it sounded bloody awesome. Quote
Cosmo Valdemar Posted July 31, 2015 Posted July 31, 2015 4:17 is a sight to behold! And how great would it be to see Geddy use one of his Hofner violin basses in the set? That would be one for the 'it's all in the fingers' crowd... 😄 Quote
Bassassin Posted August 1, 2015 Posted August 1, 2015 He should post on here. With that level of obsessive-neurotic, anorakist fixation, he'd fit right in. Plus there's a whole universe of vintage MIJ he needs educating about... Jon. Quote
