After I posted a vid of my band The La La Lies, I decided to post one of my other band too. I guess we play a little better know than in this vid of three years ago, but I hope you like it.

The Orange in the vid is replaced by a Hiwatt now. I still have that bass. Some sort of Warwick Star Bass copy.

That's a special bass. Is it a Rickenbacker? The headstock looks like it. Your playing is very precise in dynamics and rhythm, very nice.

I like it! I 've seen this video before, but it is nice seing again, thanks for sharing, Chris!

 

[Curtis]

Thanks. No loud rock 'n roll, but I'm glad you like it.

The bass is a Rickenbacker 4005WB. Quite rare. Entwistle played one and so did Mani (Primal Scream) in his Stone Roses days. The more common but still rare 4005 has a binding at the back only, like the 360 guitar. This WB-version has double bindings.

The pickup placement is insane.

Yeah, the sound isn;t that good... I call this my video-bass. This song is actually recorded with the Thunderbird.
