Awesome

Fun experiment. And yes, Rob is super talented. But Keith if you hadn’t asked about the Rickenbacher bass it would probably still be gathering dust. Good collaboration and would be great to see more.

[@TheTapeFarm]

HA... you're probably right about that. I'll take that credit.

[@RobKMusic]

Regarding my Rickenbacker bass, this is 100% accurate.

[@fever_spike]

Regarding his playing, Geddy says, “ I hit the bass so damn hard that you can hear the frets whack and the string hitting the pickup. I’m a bit of an animal!”

[@TheWitchKing456]

Great video man!

[@TheTapeFarm]

Thanks! Appreciate it.

[@TheWitchKing456]

@@TheTapeFarm I have a small question by the way; How would you recommend setting the Fender Rumble 100? Any other than in your video?

[@vanshankguitars]

Don't put yourself down that much Keith. You have talent. Just different.

[@TheTapeFarm]

Yvan Shank there you go. Thanks man.

[@frednoce3043]

Did you play a “stylized”version of Red Barchetta so that it wouldn’t get flagged by KZbin?

[@TheTapeFarm]

Fred Noce yes

[@butternutter9847]

Great value brand red barchetta

Great video. Very interesting. Though what I would be looking for would be a way of creating a setup suitable for gigging, that used actual amps and actual effects... Really loved how you both came up with what you did though.

[@TheTapeFarm]

Tech 21 has some great Geddy signature stuff that would be exactly what you’re looking for.

[@TimStarace]

@@TheTapeFarm Can confirm.

[@JonFairhurst]

Nice! Subscribed! Have you checked out Gig Performer as a host? If you’re doing anything live with plugins, it’s the way to go.

[@ant1738]

How about the Guitar tone??

[@TheTapeFarm]

The Alex tone?? That might be a couple of videos. Alex 70’s, 80’s, 90’s, etc, etc.
