This was the first video I watched from Ably House. Since then, I loved listening to this channel! Ably House and Ryohei Kanayama are the best covers you'll find on UA-cam for The Beatles.
I listen to another person playing this. I played both of you at the same time. And you sound like that Mercy Beat of McCartney, especially the double noting. Great job.
So the first note of the repeating riff is an open A string, and when I play it on my (brand new 4003) the open note sustains forever and the other notes are mush. I can't see that you are muting the string during the rest of the riff. The only way I can get it to sound decent is to play the first A note on the first string (i.e. 5th fret of the E). Am I missing your mute or some noise gate or ???
Maybe he hears it that way or it's written that way. Paul plays it the way you describe but with very small subtle differences. But that is the riff. I'm not sure about that capo. Maybe Paul was experimenting? I always trust my ears as you I'm sure.
Neil Candelora wow, thats my dream bass, i have fender pbass. but i dont know why. i just fall in love with rick tone ! and also cause paul play with it !
THE Rick was originally fireglo, then sometime in 67 he painted it. Not sure when - but the only pictures I've ever seen from the Pepper sessions have been with the "psychedelic" paint job that he did himself. He kept this paint job until April or 69 I believe, when he had it professionally stripped down to the wood one afternoon. Sometime in the early mid 70s he kept sanding it down until the horns were smooth. I forget if he had a sealer put on it at some point or not, I know he sent it into rickenbacker before the 'Wings Over America' tour - ive spoken to the man who personally fixed it. He used this bass primarily all throughout wings and into the 80's. The last use of it (that i know of) was on the song " Spinning on a axis" on driving rain - as listed in the liner notes. I know David Kahne tried to get him to use it for "Only Mama Knows" on Memory Almost full, but Paul didn't think it "sounded good" anymore. In my opinion - the Rick is THE true Beatle bass - it is the bass used on the most amount of recordings. It was his primary bass from 65-79 - so, it's on almost all his greatest recordings. Paul has been given other ricks over the years - as seen in photoshoots, just as he's been given other hofners (that apparently he records with now-a-days as well, according to a hofner representative) but the Rick that was given to him in '65 has always been THE bass in my ears and in my eyes.
Only Paul could make a great bassline on one chord and become THE song...

Thanks!
Same, though first heard ryohei and that Italian bassman. Nothing beats Neil Candelora. He's second only to the Macca himself.
How the fuck u can get that bass sound? This is the best bass audio quality I've ever heard
This is my dream bass tone.
Yes I was waiting for this one. Brilliant as usual
I love bass guitar. Specially in this great song!!! Bass Is the soul of a song.💖
And that 360/12 is the Heart.
Nicely done!
Paul killed it! Sick groove
Great bass guitar on a great song. Thanks.

I'm probably muting the A string with one of my fingers on MY right hand as I fret the G on the D string.
I didn't use any of the bridge mutes on this one - I don't think Paul started using those until "Pepper"
What strings are you using? I always use flatwounds, so they don’t really have the longer sustain like rounds.
Niceee!!
May I ask why you change the beat in the second and third verse? An isolated track on UA-cam found he keeps the best the same. No?
Maybe he hears it that way or it's written that way. Paul plays it the way you describe but with very small subtle differences. But that is the riff. I'm not sure about that capo. Maybe Paul was experimenting? I always trust my ears as you I'm sure.
I think the song Revolution's bassline would be great too, hehe
Is that supposed to be speaker bleed? Or did you just mix the other instruments in for this demonstration?
Stevesk0011 - yes, demonstration. Its there so you can follow along in the song better
i think if u remove the paint of that bass, its look cooler like mccartney used in wings 👍🏻😂
Bram Pratama - I think sgt pepper look is pretty cool too, also I have wings Rickenbacker as well!
Neil Candelora wow, thats my dream bass, i have fender pbass. but i dont know why. i just fall in love with rick tone ! and also cause paul play with it !
was The Jetglo Rickenbacker bass also used in Sgt.Pepper?

Pretty close. The 2nd verse is the same as the first. That's the way I hear it. Now sing it!
Cant hardly hear it
