Bass Porn

Tower of Power bass lines are way out of my level of skill.
Good news is I can play the bari sax lines…
But man, Rocco was a machine/beast.

That’s the same reason why I listen to Simon Phillips and Dave Weckl. Every instruments on any songs are way outside my ability but the drum parts do offer a great mathematical riddle.

Ernie Ball really punch above their weight on their $3000 price range give and take a few hundreds. Their instrument looks refine and well made. Their BFR line up is like custom made from a small shops. Compares to Mayones, Spector USA, Sadowsky, Maruszczyk, etc.

That had to be before Covid. That’s an insanely low price for a BFR.
