I’m posting this specifically for @Jazzbass19 because he is such a John Entwistle fan. Joe, when you recover from your ailments (which I know you will), this is something for you to work on.
Interesting bit of trivia that I wasn’t aware of until Mark Smith made mention of it in the lesson:
Despite the fact that Entwistle is a pioneer of round wound strings, he actually recorded this in the studio with tape wounds.
As a tape wound lover, this makes me feel all warm and fuzzy 
Here it is…
Thanks, Pam @PamPurrs . . .
I still can’t play it as well as this (no matter what type of string), but I’ll save it for future reference . . . 
Cheers, Joe
P.S. @PamPurrs
If I DO get all my medical issues straightened out, I promise you this will be the very first thing that I work on . . .
I appreciate your post and your concern very much . . . 
Cheers, Joe
We’re all thinking of you Joe, and sending good vibes your way. We ALL want you back in the forum.
This song is a lot of fun, and i had no idea he used tape wounds on it. that’s awesome. Also hello from the Blue Ridge side of state @Jazzbass19 .
Do you have any idea what bass that is that Mark is playing in this video?
I know his other basses, the Jazz and Ibanez, but I have never figured out what this one is.
He’s got so many basses, I can’t keep up with them.
He sure likes those pickups.
Yeah, they are something else, especially on that Ibanez.
that is the Aqua Marine Blue / Green one he has.
The metallic Blue one with the White Pick guard, I can’t tell the small round logo or the writing on the head stock, so i can’t figure out what it is.
those are the only 3 that he has that I have seen.
Natural wood grain Fender Jazz
Blue / Green Ibby
metallic blue ???
He plays Enfield basses, mainly, I think … not sure what particular model, though.
That is it, the lionheart is the one I am asking about. thanks for the info, look like cool basses.
