THE FEARLESS FLYERS /// Three Basses

Nate is strong tho

I wonder if they'll all play Cory's Strat or Mark's PRS next lol

Would love to see Joe slapping the shit out of a blue strat!

It's based on a Caprice, most likely, but J instead of PJ (and lacking the tone control).

@@EversonBernardes Sterling body shape and neck profile, probably a pair of custom wound AlNiCo singles. Could be Caprice-based pickups or Sterling/Stingray/Big Al-based, probably not quite like anything else offered, but I bet they’re most similar to the Caprice bridge pickup.

@@pappabearlee8938 looks more like a Caprice body. The Caprice has a jazz bass like shape but more music man-y. Also it has a slightly longer headstock, which the one in the video has. Funnily you can find a video of Joe Dart demoing a Music Man Caprice on KZbin.
