Squier himself, though: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsGjl6kP0SI
There's also that guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wke0eAPnvRg
The Rick necks are very diverse. I have a very thin one on my 4003 from 2010 with quite low strings' action which I like a lot. A buddy ordered also a newer 4003 model only to find it's got a baseball bat neck. I don't know if it depends on the model or the year of make. i think the 4001 are quite thin, too.
I think I remember Bent talking about prefering his bass necks to be quite thick. He wants to "work" on the notes. or something like that. His Stavem basses, which he played a lot in the Kenneth years are modeled after the Gibson non-reverse Thunderbirds. I mention this because I never touched a Stavem but that Thunderbird model in a shop. And man, as beauties as they are, that's no neck for me. Super clunky for my tiny hands.
On a humble side note. I was lucky to open for them in '97 with my band and Bent seemed to be quite smitten by my green Stingray back then when he saw and touched it (pre show chatting). A couple of years later, he played one, too. It was even green as well. See Bizarre festival 2002 on youtube. Coincidence? I'd like to think no. :mrgreen:
Whoops, I just stumbled over this https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=motorpsycho+bass+cover Never thought of looking for any of this before. There goes my evening…
Interesting. And thanks for bringing it up. I don‘t know anything, haven‘t seen them for two years. All I can say is you don‘t need a dedicated pedal to split the signal path. Some mono to stereo fx pedal would do just as well. So there might be a creative/hidden bass to guitar amp switching going on, or he runs everything everywhere always. That wouldn‘t surprise me.
And if his Dano double neck only has one output connection, then he can‘t go Chris Squire. He used a Rickenbacker with its stereo output, neck to bass amp, bridge to guitar amp.
What recorded version? Nothing on dime and motortrades except for the 24th…? I only just saw now there's yet another Soothe song been played with Step Inside. 8O
Loaded was great, too. I'd love to hear more Soothe songs now and then. Lighthouse Girl could still be amazing nowadays.
Wow, Frances last night and Loaded this time. I hope they still feel like digging this deep come spring tour. And that they didn’t get tired of NOX.
Also curious about Frances & Lady May. New arrangements or original versions?
For some years I've set up a rule for meself: NEVER EVER stand in front of Snah's amps/speakers :lol: Now and then he unleashes the meanest and most brutal guitar blizzard known in the universe*. Ah, them Hiwatts! Love 'em. But don't go to battle with them from the pit.
*note: you know the part in the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy. There's a band so loud they play on one planet, set up gear on another planet and the audience gathers on a third planet.
Rejoice!!!!
Salzhaus has become a fine venue since their remodeling/upgrade/repaint job. Big enough & great lights, too. I think they played the Crucible tour shortly after the „upgrade“. I remember Ship of Fools especially being a visual blast. This is gonna be gooood.
