Looks like a '68-'71 Mapleglo with an extra pickup added between the bridge and the bridge pickup. Who was the bassist?

[jps]

So, you missed the other pickup between the bridge and neck pickups? Kind of like Dave Meros' Rick.

I don't know who he is.

The bassist is Prakash John. He played with Parliament/Funkadelic at one point, as well as with Alice Cooper, and of course with Lou Reed in the 70s, as seen here. Which makes for a pretty eclectic resume.

Interesting bass! Cool groove at the beginning!

Oh, yeah! Kinda hidden by the black pickguard, but you can see it at 1:03. The intro sure had nothing to do with Sweet Jane, and the transition was kinda awkward. I like the intro on the live track from Rock 'n Roll Animal better; fits better with the tune.

...love that groove at the beginning! ... a real head bobber.....

Enough pickups on that Rick for CJ!

Where's Rich F? He loves that song!
