#ThumpinThursday #ALLCAPSFORCARLOS 1) hang on sloopy/ the McCoys 2) low rider/ WAR 3) take a walk on the wild side/Lou Reed shout out to the LAFD 🚒 stay safe LA yo Mark & Jen 🎥🎸
JJ's Reversals just listened to that, yeah similar feel to that bass line. But Herbie Flowers bass parts on that song are iconic. well done by Mr Agnesi 🎸
These Basses were famous for blowing up any type of bass amp they were played through. A two twelve Bassman might last a month or so before the speakers would need re-coning. An Ampeg B-15 would last longer, but I could never get a B-15 to cut through the mix when the rest of the band were playing loud. Now that Bass Amps have been properly engineered for the purpose, these Basses could come back into their own. Listen to that HUGE creamy enveloping woooobm-like tone Mark gets on the "Wild Side". Try getting that with a Squire P-Bass. I had two of these at different times. Both were Epiphone Rivolis from the mid 60's; one Blonde, one Sunburst, and I have never had another bass that played as smoothly and easily as these. I have mostly used Fender Basses since then, even though I find them a bit of work to play. They leave my whole body feeling tired after a 4 hour gig. The Rivoli never felt like that. I could play it for eight hours and not feel tired. I also like the way the big hollow body resonates against my body as it is played. It feels like a real musical instrument, not like a slab of furniture factory wood. E
Also had to add Mark nailed the tone that Herbie Flowers got on "Walk On The Wild Side". Crazy part was Herbie double tracked it playing his acoustic upright and electric jazz bass on it. Good job Mr.Agnesi...I'm humbled
Luciano Does Singing I don’t have enough money for 2700 drinks. Bassically this game is pulling my strings. Now my neck isn’t straight. Thanks. Excuse my bad pickup lines.
You guys are one of the best parts of my day, thanks to both Mark and Jen! :-) I gave a thumbs up, not just for the killer bass, but also for playing take a walk on the wild side, that was cool.
PS: I like that Jen is more vocal and involved, it feels more natural and personal. Comparing to a year or more ago and this has really grown and matured. I would still like a bit better close up shots but those have been much better since I started watching too, so not complaining, I love these vids.
Hey Mark. I was just wondering if you could play House of the rising sun or Carry on my wayward son for my grandmother on straturday. She has Alzheimer’s and dementia, and she relaxes when she hears those songs. Thanks, man. If you don’t see this, that’s okay. Btw, loved today’s video. Keep up the good work everybody. Especially for Thumpin Thursday.🙂👍🏻
Mark buddy do something odd for Saturday. Been rocking a lot of strats teles and es guitars. Do something unique. Passed my finals and need to celebrate with a bitchin axe
FOR CARLOS: TAP ABOVE THE FIRST COMMENT AND YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO LEAVE YOUR OWN COMMENT. THEN JUST DOUBLE TAP THE UP ARROW ON YOUR KEYBOARD TO GET ALL CAPS LOCKED. HOPE THIS HELPS BROTHER. #ALLCAPS4CARLOS Can we get a Danelectro Bass next Thursday? It would be awesome if we could.
I have a red 68. Black tape wrapped strings. Carvin bass amp with 18" sub woofer. Plays like a giant rubber band. Insane, floor shaking bass. If you want a maximum bass sound, this is the ticket.
First comment after being a long time subber. I can't/don't play the guitar. But I have a deep respect and love for the history of guitars and their associations with different artists. Norm's channel brings me so much emotional oomph.
I had to turn down the volume on my tablet when you played Lou Reed, I couldn't only hear it in my headphones, I could feel it...and it was kinda awesome!
The first tune was surely Plastic people..Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention or maybe Summer Nights from Grease or perhaps louie louie..then again its probably "Hang On Sloopy"
Holy shit Agnesi. After hearing hearing that baritone switch I fuckin' fired a load so hard it broke the glass and took out the nest of birds outside my window! Scared the shit outta my neighbor's cat too! Can you get in trouble for that? #throwbackthursday
Hey Mark can you please do something for John Lennon tommarrow please and also dude are you ever going to shave your beard just asking homie happy holidays Mark and Jen
For all those enjoying "Take a Walk on the Wild Side", check out the new Polyphonic video about the song! It's pretty interesting and it's a great channel as well! ruclips.net/video/y0fFpwHSAvg/видео.html

Mike M. I look for your comment every day to know what the hell Mark plays. Mad props.
Reed Koehnen Thanks Reed 🎸🤘🏻
GOD DAMN YOU, GEORGE LOPEZ!!!
Hopefully you get the joke.
The first song could also be "why do I cry" - the remains

Fun drinking game: whenever Mark does anything, take a shot everytime he says "Let's here this thing wide open"

Gorgeous bass!
I always wanted one to get that Chas Chandler sound.
All the best to Carlos, I miss him and hope all is well in his world.
Walk On The Wild Side was SO perfect!

Jen was thinking about the D.
Sweet bass.
I clicked this video with a gut feeling that he’d play walk on the wild side and I didn’t leave disappointed
Nice bass some day I would like to buy an Eppi bass SG version . Great job Mark make that CD !
#CARLOSGUITARLOS DUDE. WE MISS YOU.
I have a red 68. Black tape wrapped strings. Carvin bass amp with 18" sub woofer. Plays like a giant rubber band. Insane, floor shaking bass. If you want a maximum bass sound, this is the ticket.
my house was literally rattling when you played that thing.... through a bose speaker at low volume...
I think you forgot my birthday. But I'm not even mad the line up this weekend has been great #ALLCAPSFORCARLOS
#ALLCAPSFORCARLOS love for carlos from the uk
it's all about the bass...that bass, right there (".)
WAHOO THUMPIN THURSDAY!!!
First comment after being a long time subber. I can't/don't play the guitar. But I have a deep respect and love for the history of guitars and their associations with different artists. Norm's channel brings me so much emotional oomph.
That's one sweet sounding bass 。
Hey Mark can you do an EB-0F, would love to hear the built in Fuzztone. Thanks. #ALLCAPSFORCARLOS
Hey, Mark, love the show. Since its almost Christmas, could you please play I won't be home for Christmas by Blink 182 on Straturday?
walk on the wild side? NICE JOB DUDE!!!!
Best Thumpin Thursday ever..... apart from the Stingrays. Hey should do a special show ‘ What has Jen learnt ‘ quiz. 🤣
That is one sweet bass.
I’d like to see Mark do Roundabout on a Rick bass or a P-Bass.
As others have said, some John Lennon for (Here Come Ol') Flat-Top Friday would be great! 37 years. #ALLCAPSFORCARLOS
Oh I love it.👍 Hi jen.😊
I can dig it.
1. Hang on Zippy
2. Low Zipper
3. Take a Zip on the Wild Side
4. Do an '83 G&L SC-2...a nicely aged white one.
Lou Reed or Tribe called Quest?
Obviously Lou. Good shit Mark. You too Jen.
#ALLCAPSFORCARLOS, Rock on!!!
I had to bust out the studio monitor headphones for that dude. The gaming headset didn't know what to do with that much low end!
Yeah! That's a good bass. You should also do an Epiphone Jack Cassady bass.
I'm sure you meant Jack Casady. ☮
I was waiting for Jen to go doo doo doo de doo doo doo :)
You guys walk on the wild side everyday....don't stay dry!...If you don't like a tight, and/or round bottom then you aren't of my kind...:-)
I’ve been waiting to hear walk on the wild side on this show
That's power wow
That thing almost knocked me unconscious
I guess you could say in the back room of Norman's Rare Guitars he was everybody's darlin
I had to turn down the volume on my tablet when you played Lou Reed, I couldn't only hear it in my headphones, I could feel it...and it was kinda awesome!
WOW, That thing rattled my windows. Would be perfect for some stoner metal, Sleep, Electric Wizard, etc.
#ALLCAPSFORCARLOS
BEST THUMPIN THURS EVER!
#ALLCAPSFORCARLOS
Canada misses you Carlos
Hell yeah!!!
The first tune was surely Plastic people..Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention or maybe Summer Nights from Grease or perhaps louie louie..then again its probably "Hang On Sloopy"
Beautiful hollow body bass #ALLCAPSFORCARLOS
Has a good full sound
Damn...nearly vibrated a filling loose. (Note to self: Take headphones off on Thumpin' Thursdays.) #ALLCAPSFORCARLOS
#ALLCAPSFORCARLOS
What a bitchin bass!
Mark should say the prices of whatever he's showing
#ALLCAPSFORCARLOS #thumpinthursday
#VIVALOSCARLOSGUITARLOS
I have a Gibson 1968 EB-2W ( W=Walnut)It appears that they may have been only 12 Walnut stains in the history of Gibson- EB-2 basses - what say you?
Holy shit Agnesi. After hearing hearing that baritone switch I fuckin' fired a load so hard it broke the glass and took out the nest of birds outside my window! Scared the shit outta my neighbor's cat too! Can you get in trouble for that? #throwbackthursday
EVIDENTIALLY, THAT'S WHAT KNOCKED THE DENTURES LOOSE.
#ALLCAPSFORCARLOS
Remember Dime Today People. Aug 20, 1966 - Dec 08, 2004 .
