Blown away by the bass tone

I think he's maybe got this - Kemper Profiler Stage. Which is probably as good as multifx gets currently! (£1,433 from Thomann)

 

Kemper Profiler Stage – Thomann UK

 

I'm going to wait 10 years until they're selling on Reverb for £143 because software updates are no longer supported.

That’s a bit strange, pretty sure your original post suggested it was the Boss core GT1000 with the expression hidden by angles?

I know you were thinking about the Boss, has this changed your mind to the Kemper?

Chris Squire. (although solo'ed tracks sound so tinny)

John Wetton with King Crimson (especially live, what command of tone and amp)

Don't Stop Believin' - Journey (and I REALLY hate that band) 

Nailed it. Prog stalwarts are tone kings but the Journey is mixed insanely loud like 'Time and a Word' but it is a good tone.

Yeah. There was definitely a GT1000 in that post yesterday. 

Haha, it was clearly a very slow day at work for you yesterday. But you've sadly just missed out on a gold star for your detective work.

Folk are allowed to edit their posts, as you did, right? And I think you'll find I corrected my guess (although still not as good as yours), even before you had posted. 

You just needed to check the time stamps 😉

Right, back to the more interesting stuff of checking out Mr Mandrel's clip...😁

I was just looking for another video and came across this one I had saved from about 3 years ago because I liked the tone and playing 

 

Nice tone. I wonder what signal chain he was putting it through? Lots of clarity, sustain and presence. I'd be half tempted to guess a VTDI. And then tone dialled down for the more mellow parts?

I always liked George Perry's tone on this.

Whereas from the sound and brief hazy clip at around 2.50 this would appear to be classic P bass? (And very tasty all the same!)

Lol, I actually only played on the outro ( the bit with the sliding harmonics). The walking bass was sequenced by the producer, John Robie, on a double bass sample. It was about the last thing we did on that album and by then I was thoroughly sick of Robie and didnt bother going in for the session.
