Bass Player UK Magazine November 2016 Edición anterior

Ten years we’ve been trying to get Sting on our cover. Ten years! And here we are, with an another item ticked off the bass bucket list. Back in rock territory and doing bass interviews again after a decade of diversions into folk and classical territory, the man born Gordon Sumner sits down with us to reveal things we never knew. Jaco used to call him up in the wee hours of the morning. He has no time for five-strings. And he has never recorded a Christmas madrigal... Ladies and gentlemen, prepare to meet a bona fide legend when that word is criminally overused.
We’ve brought you more bass content than ever before in this issue, thanks to sit-downs with Brian Marshall of Alter Bridge, Nick Fyffe of The Temperance Movement, Richard Turner of Blackberry Smoke, Tim Commerford of Wakrat, Pete Trewavas of Marillion, Martin Méndez of Opeth and Steve Uccello. That’s a whole lot of low-end amazingness, and that’s before we sent Mike Brooks and Phil Mann to Warwick HQ and the Players School in Florida respectively. Then there’s a feast for the eyes in the form of new gear from Music Man, Sigma, Peavey, Genzler and 3 Leaf, plus enough tuition to keep you busy for a month, no matter what your ability. Dive in, and we’ll see you next month!
