What tuning is that in?

[joantheband]

@PureZOOKS I think it was DGDG or possibly even EADG as I don't think I ventured off the D or G string, just being lazy :)

how close does this bass get to the tone of an upright?

[joantheband]

@patrickshofner you can't hear it that well here as I have a little overdrive on it but clean this is the closest I've heard a bass guitar get to an upright.

I'm taking it over to France to record our album at the end of the month so will get a cleaner clearer sound with that, will let you know when it's online.

Fantastic tone mate!!! What brand is that?

[joantheband]

@OutOfTheClosetProd it's a Goldtone PBB and I'm using a boss blues driver with a Keeley mod. Add some more videos with the slide too, check out Song Noir and Hot Like Fire

Sounding awesome mate. Come and use it near me some time (at a gig that is)

[joantheband]

Sorry about the poor sound quality, I'll get round to doing some good recordings at some point. Just wanted to show off my new bass for now.
