Rush - Limelight Bass & Pedals Cover

Hi! I recently got some new Tom Brantley Geddy Lee pickups installed into my Geddy Lee jazz bass, so I was looking do to a cover that showcases the new pickups, and I thought this one would be a lot of fun to do. These things are killer, they absolutely ROAR!
This is Limelight by Rush off of Moving Pictures, released in 1981 with Geddy Lee on bass, vocals, and keyboards. This is one of my favorite albums of all time and this is possibly my favorite Rush song of all time. It also happens to be one of my favorite bass lines ever to play. Hope you enjoy!
Gear used:
Fender Geddy Lee Jazz Bass
Rotosound Swing Bass 66 Strings
Tech 21 NYC Geddy Lee YYZ Pedal
Nord Electro 6 HP
Roland PK-5 midi pedals

Nice! Where’d you get the pickguard sticker?😊🤘

[@PrestonHunsinger]

@@QbanThunder Thank you! I believe I got the sticker on Amazon. I ordered a pack of 3 with different sizes to see which one fit best, I search “alchemy amalgamation sticker”. :)

@@PrestonHunsinger Thank you!

Nice geddy usa bass… did you replace the standard pearl inlays with the black ones? Never saw that before.

[@PrestonHunsinger]

@@gjdc This is a Japanese Geddy. The black pearl inlays are stock.

[@gjdc]

@@PrestonHunsinger ah got it. Saw the Pearl pick guard and thought it was a USA

[@PrestonHunsinger]

@@gjdc I wondered about that when I first saw it too. I bought it used at a local store almost a year ago. I bet the precious owner changed it.

[@gjdc]

@@PrestonHunsinger right on. Looks great regardless.

[@Augfordpdoggie]

Were you talking to someone off camera at 258?

[@PrestonHunsinger]

@@Augfordpdoggie hahaha yes! One of my parents came in and I was attempting to tell them I was recording. I thought the take was good enough to post so I didn’t want to re-record it :P
