I was wondering why he was using an Epiphone? Christian's playing is amazing and he gets a good sound out of it for what it can do but why is he using this cheap instrument? I personally don't like his sound as much here as with other basses.

I REALLLLY love seasoned pros playing "just okay" gear. That epiphone bass is maybe a 400 dollar bass? (at least it looks that way, and it's an epiphone). Maybe it's some special model, but either way, it's an epiphone and doesn't have a lot of fancy (NO fancy) trim or bits on it. Most pro bassists especially in blues and jazz have these obnoxious looking things made out of like, olive wood and madagascar ebony, and the body shape is always really over-pronounced. Usually 5 strings or more. Refreshing seeing a good player just using a regular somewhat cheap looking epi 4-string.

Lovely video of a phenomenal performance. McBride makes it look effortless as usual. If I am not mistaken I believe the wobbly background effect is caused by the camera's internal mage stabilization. Either that or space-time is indeed not merely curved but in fact totally bent.

Strange. lol I was curious, because at first it seemed like there was some sort of treeline behind Mcbride, that then looked like a stand-in of some sort. Was just weird. The quality is pretty dang good though, I'll say that much. :) Did you happen to be a decent distance away? I noticed at live performances, being a bit away for me is better than being near the speaker, because I want to hear the music, and not just feel the bass rippling my ear drums. Strangely, videos like these seem to do a good job at recording video as if close-up, but without overdoing the limits on the microphone/audio recording equipment, and then make for a mess of sound, like it's recorded almost straight from the instruments like an input receiver before the amp.

Say fellas I'm not a professional musician but there's absolutely nothing wrong with Epiphone. I own an Epiphone Sheraton 2 and with the case, I paid $850.00 which isn't cheap. But I wonder really if spending $4,000 makes you have a better instrument? I absolutely love my Sheraton and I've compared to a Gibson ES-335 which is what I've always wanted but when it came to my budget and wanting a new guitar I played that Sheridan and I looked at it and looked at it and looked at it and I decided that's the one I wanted and it plays great sometimes I think Gibson is a little overrated. But nobody in their right mind should ever underestimate Epiphone. They're coming out with some really good quality instruments.
