One of my all time favorite Cream originals.Will let you in on a little factoid , that little jam Jack was weaving in and out with in the background ,was his tip of the cap to "the Cutty Wren " a really ancient English folk song.
It was pretty up there, over €3.5k. Hard to find these in Europe. It's a very clean specimen however, and I find the slothead years are kinda the best of both worlds, 60s and 70s, in terms of features.
@@torchmusic27 Also what was the pickup selection like? It sounds mostly like the neck mudbucker, but when you're playing the faster parts there's also a bit of grit
That's something I didn't know until I got an EB-3, when I still only had an EB-0; all the famous EB recordings are played on pos 3, bridge pickup with choked mudbucker :) with the tone rolled off it still has a crapton of mud but much better definition and a load of that signature grunt that an EB-0 just can't quite produce. This one is no exception!
Pressed Rat and EB3, NAILED IT!!!!

It sounds really folkish! That's why I love it, it's like a fairy tale
@@torchmusic27 it's got everything ,but mainly, the counterpoint.
Excellent!!
Great job, and sweet bass!
Good work! Always loved this track too. I had the opportunity to speak with Jack on a few occasions - was too shy back in the day!
Thanks! It's sad that Jack's gone, but his beautiful music lives on.
You do justice to Jack Bruce
Great (with old british accent)
How much did you get this bass for? Haven't seen 70s EB-3's a lot

@@torchmusic27 yeah, maybe in my next life im gonna get one 😛 Im pretty sure you could get a very good custom bass for that price too
Oh yeah definitely. Most people probably wouldn't pay half of that for an old Gibson bass, but I am a nut with a dream. 😄
