A Bass VI? Sounds like one, to my ear. —The artist formerly known as: Synchro When Surf Guitar is outlawed only outlaws will play Surf Guitar. |

I have no idea. Doesn't sound like a Dano for sure. I like to think it's a Meazzi, honestly ;) —The Exotic Guitar of Kahuna Kawentzmann You can get the boy out of the Keynes era, but you can’t get the Keynes era out of the boy. |

Hearing it again, it's very, very close to Jet Harris' Bass VI, so probably a Fender. —The Exotic Guitar of Kahuna Kawentzmann You can get the boy out of the Keynes era, but you can’t get the Keynes era out of the boy. |

Now that you mention it, it sounds a lot like Harris’ Diamonds. —The artist formerly known as: Synchro When Surf Guitar is outlawed only outlaws will play Surf Guitar. |

The conventional wisdom is that Harris' Diamonds is a guitar tuned down to DGCFAD. I was disappointed when I learned this as I'd assumed it was a Bass VI —The Spiratones - Instro/Surf from the rain-soaked north-northwest of England |

I had a quick look on Google, somehow using my non-existent knowledge of Italian language, and it seems Marc 4's bassist passed away in November last year. There is a picture of him in the studio playing a bass I can't pretend to be able to identify, but apparently enjoying his work. I first heard Marc 4 on a couple of tracks on this compilation record, which I got when it came out in 1998 and which has been a favourite of mine ever since: Last edited: Feb 14, 2024 13:40:04 |

I'd think it's a Gibson Les Paul bass? Cheers, https://m.facebook.com/TheArousals |

On the recordings AFTER Diamonds (he did some) Harris used a Bass VI. —The Exotic Guitar of Kahuna Kawentzmann You can get the boy out of the Keynes era, but you can’t get the Keynes era out of the boy. Last edited: Feb 15, 2024 11:55:53 |

The I Marc 4 track lead sound reminds me of Besame Mucho. —The Exotic Guitar of Kahuna Kawentzmann You can get the boy out of the Keynes era, but you can’t get the Keynes era out of the boy. |

That’s the sound. I don’t play my VI often, but when I do, it’s always gratifying. —The artist formerly known as: Synchro When Surf Guitar is outlawed only outlaws will play Surf Guitar. |
