  • The Jack Casady Signature Bass was designed by Casady in collaboration with Epiphone and is the culmination of years of experimentation by the Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna bassist to find an instrument with superb, balanced electric tone and the response of an acoustic bass.

    Nice! Picked up the Allen Woody Rumblekat and really like it. With the varitone on this Jack Cassidy, this might be my next bass.

  • @DrRussPhd

    Great demo . .I bought a used one of these thru GC. It is my first bass, I've been playing guitar for a while and thought it was time for something different. I love the way this thing sounds, nice and woody or like a growling bear. My only knock on this thing is the strap button being behind the neck as it has a tendency to pitch over . Jack plays his pretty low and I've tried that and the bass does hang better down there but it is not as comfortable for me. I have no regrets about buying this bass. In about the middle of your demo with the 500 switch you had some of that Ric 4003 growl going on. The tone knob on this is as you say, very sensitive which is great. Thanks again for doing this demo.

    1 good point : it's a real hollow body (and not semi-hollow as often said).
    1 bad point : it's not a « completely new » model designed by Jack and Epiphone. It's actually a reissue of the Gibson Les Paul Signature Bass, a quite rare model produced between 1973 and 1979. ruclips.net/video/49S96AJzvAU/видео.html Jack Casady bought one second hand in 1985, and it became his main instument. You can see it on the Hot Tuna DVD's « Acoustic - Live at Sweetwater, 1992 » ruclips.net/video/KIPTr4PTom0/видео.html (see at 22:35) and « Electric - Live at the Fillmore, 1994 » ruclips.net/video/_cqnLclE2gU/видео.html (solo at 3:30). The Epiphone Jack Casady Signature Bass was only released in 1998 and is essentially an affordable replica of his old Gibson. A good one I must say, I bought one ;-)

    "The "VariGain" gives you control over..gain..." Unless there are active electronics in that thing, ain't no gain being adjusted. According to the description, it's an impedance selector. "VariGain" is misleading.

    Hi! Thank you for this review. All recorded tracks are just the bass signal into the i/o? No sound treatments?

      @Maryonpark 8 лет назад +6

      Jefferson Airplane - White Rabbit. It was Jack Casady on bass so obviously a good one to open the video.

      I think it was the recording. I played one of these through a 300 watt Bassman and it was incredible!
