HOW THE FENDER BASS CHANGED THE WORLD
This book by the founding editor and former publisher of Bass Player magazine
not only celebrates the 50-year history of Fender's revolutionary Precision Bass,
it also - for the first time - illuminates the full scope of its profound impact on
music and society. Focusing on the bass' artistic influence, it details the technical
milestones that gave the bass its musical power. This book also describes the
impact of the bass in the hands of such visionaries as James Jamerson; cheers
the innovations of rockers like Jack Bruce, Paul McCartney, John Entwistle and
Sting; and honors the inspired work of such virtuosos as Jaco Pastorius. Loaded
with black & white and 100 stunning color photos.
