This is my demo of the BeatBass VS Vintage Series bass by Harley Benton.

I read somewhere that Paul McCartney used a Höfner bass because (at the time, of course) he could not afford an imported American bass which (again, at the time) was of a higher quality.

Things/Times have changed and Höfner makes some awesome basses to this day. Still, if you want to replicate Paul's sound, an inexpensive bass may be the way to go (and a totally great one at that, if I may throw my two cents on the table).

Something I've read and thought I'd relate to you. ;-)

I demoed her with three different songs in three different styles:

1. Come Together, by the Beatles - Finger style, both pickups
2. Surfin' USA, by the Beach Boys - Pick, both pickups
3. Lady is a Tramp (Daniel Boaventura's version), by Richard Rodgers - Finger style, neck pickup only

...plus a "recap" video, for A/B/C comparison.

Hope you dig it.

Speaking of "Come Together," YouTube kept deleting my uploaded video, as it contained Beatles material. So, I decided to make a new video mixing and matching various versions (heavy metal, rock, funk, bossa, big-band jazz): all but the original.

All of the above notwithstanding, do remember that: one and one and one is three!!!... ;-)

---------------------------------------------------------------------

The signal chain is very simple: bass [to] Apogee One (sound card) [to] Reaper (recording software): that's it!!!
Oh, except at the beginning of "Come Together" where I added an octaver from an Eventide H9.
