Bill Chase, Dartanyan Brown & the Ripper Bass - Bass-ment - Bass Cover

Bassline AS THE ORIGINAL RECORDING Dartanyan Brown, extraordinary bassist was smokin&on this hidden gem, released in 1973 as a "demo 45 rpm single to promote the new Gibson Ripper bass guitar": I went crazy over the funky-ness of this bass line and tried hard to imitate it. And here it is, many years later, I have finally sat down and listened and figured it out, to share with bass players everywhere. btw, Dartanyan Brown was the bass player with Bill Chase and his Big Band.YouTube Song Title: "Bill Chase & Dartanyan Brown-Bass-Ment Fall 1973" The tone of this bass: My Expert Guitar Luthier, Luigi Spezzacatena, of southern Italy, attached a genuine vintage 1960 Sprague capacitor to the electronics of my Roadworn so as to create a more 60&tone, while I have worked with the knobs on my bass and amp to attain a flat, yet punchy tone. The bass in this video is a Fender Jazz Bass Roadworn with three year old Ernie Ball slinky flatwound strings played through Marshall B 15 MK II amplifier.
