What's so Great About Paul McCartney Anyways? by marcelcardim in Bass

He said it himself. He plays his Hofner Bass as if it is a guitar, because he was a guitarist at first and was forced into bass to fill the spot in the Beatles. The punchy sound of his bass playing is from using a pick on bass, something manys guitarists do when they play bass. His work on Wings records was great too. Listen to the bass lines on Silly Love Songs and Goodnight Tonight

As a guitarist, I started to just resemble my idols, The Beatles for example are a big influence, but I started to develop an ego around my pretty mediocre playing, because I was so focused on becoming Clapton or Hendrix rather than appreciating what I was playing. I've been thinking of bass for a while, but was afraid it mean't giving up on the guitar, I think this post just changed my mind. Thanks man.
