The bass playing on Rubber Soul really spotlights Paul’s talent - and I never realized it until the album was brought out in digital form - Amazing.

[@slogans777]

That's when the engineers got the hang of recording the bass properly. Prior to that, everything was dictated by the English recording techs, who wore lab coats (!) and forbade anyone from a truly bass-ey bass sound. Bless Geoff Emerick, Norman Smith (this was his last Beatle record he engineered), Alan Parsons who broke all the rules. I believe Paul started to use his Rick on RS, which was truly a "grown-up" bass. Before you get too upset, I had an uncle in Germany buy me a Hofner in 1964. It was just like Paul's. There's a reason 99% of session players back then used Fenders, lol. the Hofner was light, small and looked cool. But how Paul got decent music out of that Hofner speaks to his talent. Terrible intonation, silly controls, a bridge that moved around, and saddle pieces that could not keep my E string in place! Anyway, the bass on the recordings prior to Rubber Soul were not well recorded. The English engineers back then thought a solid bass sound on a record would make the needle skip. Honest. Flatwound strings and a pick help get Paul's sound, regardless of the bass guitar.

[@ssnoc]

@@slogans777 - That’s very interesting and makes sense. It wasn’t only the technology I was talking about, it was Paul’s playing the bass almost as a lead instrument that I never realized. I’m a big jazz fan too - It’s almost the way Jeff Hamilton plays the drums too - like a lead instrument - very creative people. Paul may be a bit arrogant, but his talent is undeniable.

[@john84896]

Paul throughout his career was able to go back to the Hofner for a certain tone...the hofners thud and are great when Paul plays bouncey lines...the small Hofner sounds more like a double bass then a P bass And playing the high notes down low on the neck on a Hofner is so cool sounding 👍

The Beatles almost always considered the room, or recording environment. I'm not sure how many times, but several times they've talked about it. They also would change the entire room they'd record in to get the ambience they wanted. I also saw one interview were Paul showed the very place they were recording, and he walked into another room, explaining how they'd go into that section to get the reverberation off the walls. And yet a different time, Paul mentioned the sound of the Abbey road studio place

[@mr-nr4td]

All (100%) of the 200+ Beatles songs on their major albums, from day one until the final sessions, were recorded at EMI (which is "Abbey Road"). 90%+ of songs were done in Studio 2, a few in #3 and a few in #1. Only "Hey Jude" was recorded away at the old Trident London. I've also heard them speak about changing rooms for a certain track of a song to one of the other rooms for acoustics. In the exhaustive and meticulously kept EMI Session Notes / Ledger (now out of print hard back book), those tracks of each take of each song are documented but also some of the rare times they changed from their main Studio (room) #2, was also due to prior scheduling of other sessions.

If you listen carefully to the early Beatles recordings, you will hear that the takes have been heavily tampered with, cut, glued, erased but not quite, (some erased tracks are still audible), etc. This is due to the equipment of the time, long before the digital age.

[@Allan-et5ig]

Great video. Maybe you can do one on the overdriving of the desk for the Revolution guitar sound - though one EMI engineer of that vintage now denies that the desk was responsible for the sound. The Beatles, as their sessions sheets - many of which are reproduced in a book of a similar name, show - used reduction mixes all the time. They liked the second generation (or more) degraded sound, praising it as 'shiny' and so... were never really at a loss for tracks except perhaps in the VERY early days of Twin Track.

[@TheProvidersBand]

So this is cool.. there is a big difference between staple pickups which was on the era of Paul’s bass and blade pickups which came later like Clays bass. I’ve owned both and there is noticeably a difference. So off you really want the sound you gotta use staple pickups

[@jesseharradine9861]

new vid - wooooot!

[@mr-nr4td]

Not to be the wise guy but I've been recording bass amps 6+ feet out for over 40 years... ..had no access to anything like the wonderful Chandler RI Redd gear back then but an LA2A would suffice and may times the 1176's... not sure i gave much thought to which/when but do remember getting a bit of the 1176 "crust" to help lift the bass out of the mix at times. I love your videos (caught one a few months back) and plan to watch more in the future. ..and I learned something I never knew.. I thought you glitched when said they used a 4033 at around 0:33, thought you must have meant the 4038 but sure enough, i googled and STC did make a 4033a which I wasn't aware of... at first I thought you jumped numbers and morphed the AT 4033 into the STC/Coles mic. I love finding out how little I still know and still love to learn anything I may have missed back then. You make a great point and doing a great service at a time when it seems that there's a ridiculous, sensory overload in the excessive number of "pro-sumer" mics /outboard gear choices.. ..to the point of redundance IMO. This forum fueled quest for "the right gear" seems to confuse more than clarify the simplicty of recording. Demonstrating how the room was used should help a lot of us... ...getting the mic off point blank and learning to use the room to get size, character, and depth of field for the mix is something I don't see many talking about.. .. and you are pointing out that "isolation" was not something that was an essential part of any of these great old recordings that we still look to for reference at times. I love what you pointed out by showing how it was done in a live room. I think those huge wall monitors were even blasting for vocals while recording. (assuming that the figure eight pattern they sang around was positioned with the null facing the big monitors) but even so, sometimes if you lose the close mics, and just learn how to "let it bleed"...that alone can bring your recordings up a level even more so than buying new gear can. Didn't men to write War and Peace but as a final observation about the "gear hype" I feel lots of us get lost in... I sometime think with just a good compressor or two, i could come closer to making a world class sounding record with nothing but 6-7 relatively inexpensive dynamics, like some 57's, maybe like an RE20 and a pair of MD21 omni's, then another dynamic that may have a bit more open top... like an MD441...and seriously come out sounding better than I could with a bathtub full of these $1000 to $3000 LDC's that there seem to be more to choose from than what's on the breakfast cereal isle at the supermarket. I guess my point is these great recordings were simply done with what was available at the time...granted, it was a Fairchild, U-67's 47's, etc...but if all they had was my 7 mic list above, it would have still sounded like the Beatles.... they didn't have 1000's of gear choices like we do... just to go to "tape". Just a good room, good songs, and good ears. Peace.

[@kalebaldwin5398]

During the Help! sessions, he started using a 1962 Bassman, for both his bass and his electric guitar. And in 1966, during the Revolver sessions, he used the Bassman as well as a Vox UL4120 amp (the bass version of the UL730 and UL7120 used by George and John). He received his Rickenbacker during their 2nd U.S. tour, and put it to great use on Rubber Soul, most notably on "Think for Yourself". I don't think the Hofner was used much, if at all (other than "Wait", which was leftover from the Help! sessions). All Revolver-era tracks that featured Paul on bass (including "Paperback Writer" and "Rain") featured the Ric, even though he continued to use the Hofner for promo videos and on tour.

[@BoulevardRecording]

That’s correct ! The UL430 is what he was using I don’t think they used the 4120 except for tours.

[@stupendousmusic4190]

Glad to see you have flat wound strings on your Höfner! According to the Höfner booklet that comes with the "Beatles Bass," Paul used the bridge pickup in Solo mode. I've experimented with this myself, and found this to be the case, as the neck pickup or both together is/are quite muddy. that in the earlier recordings, the 4038 was used solo. I know that Glyn Johns recorded Paul's bass with a Neumnan U67 (in figure 8), and also recorded John and George's (and Paul's) guitars with a U67 as well; however, I don't know which pattern, on the guitars, but I'm guessing cardioid. Personally, I'm a big fan of using ribbon mics or LDC mics in figure 8 on bass cabinets. As far as vocals are concerned, whether or not the pattern was figure 8 or cardioid is a good question. Certainly if two locals were recorded facing each other on the same mic, it would have to be figure 8 (or omni if using a U47). Solo vocals though, it's difficult to say. I'm sure somebody knows.

[@BoulevardRecording]

Not sure what they put in their booklets but this ones from 1967 and I’ve owned several 62-63 reissues and it’s always been this position. Same as Paul still uses on his Hofner (plenty of photographic evidence although his control panel is upside down now)

[@stupendousmusic4190]

​@@BoulevardRecording Höfner says in their booklet that they make no distinction between left and right-handed controls. As a left-handed player of 39 years, I can tell you that this is both good and bad: good; the potentiometers will function as they are supposed to: louder when turned clockwise; bad; on a left-handed Höfner, everything is reversed. Get's confusing. Paul might have flipped his so that the the position of the knobs and switches coincided with those of the pickups. I reviewed some photos, and it appears that the switches were like you said. One thing I'm certain of, is that Paul, as most guitar and bass players back then, usually played with the volume control rolled back a bit; usually only turned up for solos or just to increase volume a little.

Correction to the geezer's video: The tape machines used on the Beatles early recordings & LPs (1962-1965) were not the Studer J37s, but were EMI-custom built BTR monotrack & 2 track reel to reel recorders (which tape op Geoff Emerick manned and Norman 'Normal' Smith recorded on to)...we used to ask Normal when we could get a Motown sound, and he'd say "it's up to the brass upstairs."

Geezer ? I’m 33 pal. And yes he did use a pick there’s plenty of photo evidence of that and he’s heard talking about a “plec” (plectrum) in outtakes. They used BTR machines and a Telefunken machine until January 1964. Thanks, Geezer

[@BoulevardRecording]

Also, first song on Please Please Me " I Saw Her Standing There" is a pick my friend. He certainly did all over that record and many! On some slower songs like "Till There Was You." Or "Love Me Do" he did not use a pick but for the most part he did. Paul remembers this stuff about as well as you "hear" no pick before 1966 ;)

In the early days, I used my thumb with an acrylic nail to pick & my index finger to strum/pick (watch me on Ed Sullivan). Often, what looked like a pick was actually my acrylic thumb nail/forefinger (although for the super uptempo stuff like Please, yeah, I probably picked up a pick, so it wouldn't cramp my hand rehearsin it again & again).

[@BoulevardRecording]

👍🏼 Geezer It is he must’ve had very long nails, there’s a lot of pick and percussive sounds on that first Lp. You can very much hear a pick pluck the strings if you solo the vocal mics, the Hofner is a very acoustically loud bass and you can hear the U48 picking up their strumming and plucking. Never heard Paul had an acrylic nail film 1966. To say he never played a pick on the Hofner is basically that. Come 66 it was all about the Rickenbacker until The White Album.
