4005 basses in Musicvideos

Let's talk about the most visual use of a 4005 in a Musicvideo.


Oasis "Go let it out"
This video was shot before Andy Bell joined so it shows Noel Gallagher playing bass which he also did on the record. His bass is a 4005 in fireglo.


The Stone Roses "Fools gold"
Gary "Mani" Mournsfield must be the stickerboy for playing rickenbacker basses in the nineties preferring the 4005 and the 3001 models over the more commonly seen Cresting wave shaped Rick basses. His bass in the video is an artfully modified Mapleglo 4005 and was most likely also the bass he used on the recording.


Tony! Toni! Toné! "If I had no loot"
This swinging mid nineties soul number features a 4005WB in tasty Fireglo. The bassplayer plays it upside down. There's no proof that he played that bass on the actual recording but I can prove that he was perfectly able to have done so.

No Youtube, but there is a lot of 4005 action in a 2DVD I bought of the Stone Roses recently. It a live registration of a concert in Blackpool + some studio footage and interviews etcetera. I really love this sound.... Semi-acoustic with Rick Character.

I believe there's a Fields of the Nephilim video where their bass player uses one.

Now if only MY band had a video with one in it... (note to self: sell kidney)

Here's another version of the Oasis video, with an additional RIC 330 in the mix.

BTW, can someone tell me how to get the youtube video to show up in the post, so I don't have to use just a link?

I'd say so. Besides the best 4005 bassist of all these videos is in this one!
