Default Paul McCartney SG bass

Anyone see the Brit awards last night? I was out but came home to rumours of an SG bass....

Its here anyway - Paul plays piano, but bassist Brian Ray plays an SG bass - sounds great too - especially around 6:50 - check it out!

Nice! That's how they sound so there's no risk another guy is playing the real sound backstage on a P-bass.

doesn't sound like a P bass at all...I like the tone...I am gassing for the SG Reissue for some time now ...I don't like the stupid sing along section from Hey Jude.

Yeah, I hate it when bands do that.... however much I love the band. We pay to see and hear them, not the other way round.

I probably look like a miserable git, but I NEVER join in....

the plus though, in this case, is that as it has dropped down to just bass and drums, we get a real feel of that SG bass vibe.
