  • I have a Hofner just like that. It's one of the weirdest basses I've ever played, But nothing comes close to the tone that crazy thing makes.

  • this is great...i like this cover....

  • Sorry if you've answered this already, but what strings do you use? and what recording rig? I play it a tad differently, but your tone is PERFECT..

  • respect man, you 're a rocker that also grooves like Paul!

  • where do you live? your mouth really looks exectly like someone that I know

  • awesome! great play!

    

  • Piano-Linnon

    Bass- Paull Mic

    Guitar- Georgey Boy

    Percussion- Rich

  • thanks for all your comments!

  • i really love the guitar solo..we assume its george...BUT...i bet paul plays the solo..because it is very much like his bass playing...i think thats what gives it away...also on "fixin a hole:"...i bet paul played that solo too....

  • @ChiroQuacker i just looked it up on beatle song facts it is george according to them here's the quote. One of George's best guitar solos in this song. And yes, he played lead, Geoff Emerick (their sound engineer) made a point in his book of noting how quickly George was able to get the solo down.- Nikolai, Los Angeles, CA

  • @BifNatural

    i read geoffs book so i must have forgot that...and if geoff said it then george played it

    i love that solo...and i guess the gibson sg gave it a unique sound...

    it is an inventive, original, creative solo...

  • I love the bass in this song. Great job!! :D <3

  • genial!!!!

  • good job

  • I think you have it too high its E: 7-7-10 7 A: 7 E:7 A:8-9

  • Dislike button serves as the "jealousy" button in this case.

  • I like those bass intros you did 0:05-0:07 and 0:08-0:011

  • great job man!

  • Why didnt you play the wicked bass fill there when the lyrics went some kind of innocence...

  • Like they say at the end of the song - "That's it man, you got it!" Excellent feel and tone! Regards, '62 Mathew St. (Total Retro Rock)

  • excuse me sir, what type of hofner is that?

  • Man this awesome bass riff was the reason for me to even considering owning a bass and my awesome friend said he has a Rickenbacker 4001 just like Paul's and he said he doesn't want it and he told I could have it and i said hell yeah and I'm getting it for free and he is an awesome friend and I'm getting it next weekend.

  • @beatlesfan631 so you know how to use dots?

  • Shit

  • awesome!

  • Great Hofner 68 specimen!

  • wow, this is amazing, and you did this by ear? jesus you have perfect hearing

  • I love the punchy but smooth tone you get with both the strings&bass. Flats most likely. HOFNER!!

  • paul mcartney?

  • very precise and smooth, good job

  • @Paparatsee where did you get the tabs

  • @manic181 Sorry, but I don't have tabs. I'm doing everything by ear. Can't even read notes...

    Cheers!

  • Nice man. Not gonna lie that looks really hard. Haha. How much was that bass of yours? I was debating on learning. I already know drums so I wanted to learn something different.

  • Pleeease can you give us the tabs? This video was so awesome and accurate!

  • beautiful bass!

  • Perfect cover, hofner?

    5 stars*

  • Great job.

    As for the Hofner question, post -Rubber Soul almost all of Paul's studio work was done on his Rickenbacker, which is considered by most a superior bass to the Hofner.

  • @gdholmfirth Yeah, but still Paul is assotiated mostly with this violin base- its already an icon...I think, Hoefner owns all their sales to Paul:)

  • awesome cover great job wicked hofner

  • you are playing it one half step down, playing Bb instead of B for example.

  • are you using a pick?

  • are hofner good basses ?

    why do i bother actualy i'm savin for a new drum.

  • mccartney made such awesome basslines its just impossible to ignore them

  • great job!
