    As a Rancid Fan I really appreciate this kind of content, I think it's a way to get just little closer to people you admire and everyone here know how legendary this P bass is. Thanks again for the video Sir.

    I bought mine MattFreeman signature Squier in Milan for 450€.
    Very hard to find in Europe.
    I play it all the time.

    This bass is punk rock history. I loved this video. I am also a proud owner of the Matt Freeman Squier bass. One of the best basses I own and it cost a fraction of what some of my others did.

    Ive been waiting for this video since 1997 when I first heard Rancid. Your 1977 P bass to me, a bass player, is like Hendrix's Strat to most guitar players. Thanks so much, Matt!

    @leviwang3082 2 месяца назад +5

    Matt I’m your fan 20yrs long from China. I love those late 70s white P Bass just because of you. I went to Japan to see Rancid live which was one of my happiest moment in life. In 2008, I bought my first Fender 78P which is blonde-white and it brought me so much fun in the past yrs! Earlier this year, I eventually bought a genuine Olympic-white Fender P from late 70s when I traveled in the US , which is exactly the same color as your 77.P. This is my dream, thank you for inspiring me across the ocean.

    The bass of legends!
    Got to see you live in Memphis quite a few years ago and got to talk to you about basses at the time. You played a Geddy Lee jazz that night and just absolutely killed it!
    I remember talking to you about a signature model. This was before the Squiers.

    @kilboypwrhed 2 месяца назад +1

    This is so exciting. I’m only 20, but I’ve been daydreaming about playing your basslines since I was a 10 year old girl listening to Op Ivy with my dad. I got an electric bass when I was 12 after deciding to pick up the upright, and have been trying to coherently play Op Ivy songs since then. This year, I finally have gotten to that point, and am SO explosively excited about it, and then I stumble upon this channel!!!! What a blessing!!!! You are such an inspiration!

    Please do more videos like this! How about a video on your love for jazz and precision basses. I would also love to hear about the squier. I hope fender can reissue them at a good price. I recall it as the best sounding bass I’ve ever tried in a music store.

  • @kenchairtoe

    Such an iconic bass! I actually built my own 70’s Precision modeled after these white ones. Definitely do more bass/gear rundown videos!!

  • @paulmccarthy508
    @paulmccarthy508 2 месяца назад +2

    Matt, thank you so much for making this. In my opinion, this is most notable Fender P Bass in all of punk history.
    I wanted to get one of your signature Squier P Basses when they were available new, but my finances never lined up quite right. They are even more expensive now on the used market! Maybe Fender needs to do another run?
    I'd love to see a video about what it was like working with Fender to create your signature P Bass. Also, tell us about the guitars hanging on your wall, ever since you started these back during the pandemic I always wondered what their story was.
    Thanks!

    I do bought your signature back in 2012, i changed the pickup with some Fender 63's and sanded the back of the neck just enough to remove the shine for fadter action. It is my favorite instrument and i will re-install the pickup that came with it soon. Thanks for your videos as I really enjoy to know more about you, your gear and your talent.

    Thanks for being a constant inspiration I wouldn't be able to play bass for shit with out learning your bass lines when I first started playing bass I learned pretty fast and thought I was hot shit until my friend silver put in his operation ivy record and said oh yeah can you play this shit and was floored so I spent the next six months learning all the op ivy songs and the three rancid albums that were out at the time and for the first time ever playing bass got me laid by a hot skinhead punk chick and i dated her for a while tried to start a band with her brother but he just couldnt pay attention long enough to learn the songs

    I love how much character this bass has. It's so impressive to see an artist use the same instrument for most of their career. See also the Bouncing Souls guitars.
    Would love to see a side by side sound comparison of the Fender and Squire.

    I know some people aren’t into Fenders but honestly look at well that instrument has held up after 40 years and 30 years of shows and recordings. I’ve never played a genuine fender P but man, do I have a lot of respect for those instruments. I also appreciate Matt playing a Squire at live shows bc there are valid reasons to use professional grade instruments, there’s some pretentiousness about it too.
