    Nice steady playing Thomas, love it. Grooving with the pick. Conor keeps it simple, usually hanging on the roots. Good to see you continuing with the Fontaines. Romance is a terrific album. Love that P Bass and nothing wrong with that t-shirt also 🇮🇪👍

      @@basstrap3430 Oh cool. My buddy Niall from Niall's Bass Tones is also from Dublin. I've been to Ireland twice the past 2 and half years and have fallen in love with it. I saw The Waterboys both times. Once in Dublin and once in Cork. The first time there spent two weeks with the wife touring all over. Her family is from Cork. What a beautiful country.

    I can see that you are enjoying the bass play on this song, sir!
    'Favourite' does really have the 'Just Like Heaven' and '1979' vibes. A nostalgic-melody-driven song even i saw an interview video with Fontaines ' bassist, he said the song was influenced by The Beatles but did not turn up like Beatles song 😂

    Ok, ok, ok... what a beautiful song and this is probably my favorite Fontaines song I've heard so far. I really like the atmosphere the guitars create in this. It's almost like the perfect cross between U2 and The Cure. Such bright energy and the bassline... fat, present, leading. The perfect bassline and you totally nailed it, Thom. I really, really enjoyed watching you play this and you know what? It's time to hit that replay button. 😉Fantastic stuff, my friend. BASS ON!!!!!

      Thanks Dani! Yeah this is one sweet catchy pop song by Fontaines DC. This one is getting a lot of radio play here in NY. The new album is fantastic. It feels good to be excited about a young band again. Simple and effective bass line. Thanks for watching!!! BASS ON!!!

      Wow, what a poetic response. Thanks so much Neil! Sometimes nice and steady is all a song needs. I am really loving the Am Pro II P bass. It feels so good to be playing a P again. I thought I've seen quite a few of your videos with an American P? A top quality bass in fit and finish and sound. Just curious, how many basses do you own? I thought I recall that you buy, fix up and sell them. Is that correct? I sold my Lakland 44-02 to finance the Am Pro II. I still have the Lakland Jazz bass. Cheers mate!

      Thanks for watching. I appreciate the support. Yes, I did use the Zoom B1 Four for this one. I used Preset #40 AMPG Set. I believe that one emulates an Ampeg SVT amp.
