Yes, John Wetton, who never got enough credit for his absolutely crushing bass tone. That's the way a great P-Bass should sound to me.

I love the way the bass on this song alternates between a phasey delay and completely dry. The contrast makes both sections pop more.

This is one of my favorite bass players and bands. P-bass with Rotosounds through some kind of Yamaha amp, apparently.

Re: Favorite bass tone

Besides this being an absolute beast of a song to play, the bass is massive here.

John Wetton was amazing. I loved his P bass through a HiWatt tone.

Try this on for size.

Just beastly vintage low and low mids. With some pick detail on top. Listen with headphones. And don't miss the funk section at 6:30.
