As a Rancid Fan I really appreciate this kind of content, I think it's a way to get just little closer to people you admire and everyone here know how legendary this P bass is. Thanks again for the video Sir.

More! More! More! All the basses, all the guitars, all the everything. This is food for the eyes.

I bought mine MattFreeman signature Squier in Milan for 450€.
Very hard to find in Europe.
I play it all the time.
❤

[ShanghaiPaddles]

Yes, more bass videos! The jazz bass on AOCTW would be interesting. And the signature bass too. All of it haha

Ive been waiting for this video since 1997 when I first heard Rancid. Your 1977 P bass to me, a bass player, is like Hendrix's Strat to most guitar players. Thanks so much, Matt!

[kipholscher]

I'd love to see you cover your Matt Freeman Squier bass.

[briantaylor]

Would love to see more of everything, basses, amps, how you get your tone, practice routines, etc etc, thanks for the videos Matt!

[gasparhernandez]

Absolutely! More of these videos, please. 3 reasons why I bought my Fender white p bass and slapped a black pickguard on it, Paul Simonon, Dee Dee Ramone, and of course, yourself.

This bass is punk rock history. I loved this video. I am also a proud owner of the Matt Freeman Squier bass. One of the best basses I own and it cost a fraction of what some of my others did.

[tombuck]

You answered so many questions I've had for so many years! Thanks for this.

[oaklandish-metalboy]

I’d love to see more videos about your Basses, Matt!!

[therealgeoffburroughs]

The sound of that bass is driven into my heart. I'm happy it's so well loved🎉

[Backlashed]

That is THE bass! Would love to see the Jazz as well.

Matt I’m your fan 20yrs long from China. I love those late 70s white P Bass just because of you. I went to Japan to see Rancid live which was one of my happiest moment in life. In 2008, I bought my first Fender 78P which is blonde-white and it brought me so much fun in the past yrs! Earlier this year, I eventually bought a genuine Olympic-white Fender P from late 70s when I traveled in the US, which is exactly the same color as your 77.P. This is my dream, thank you for inspiring me across the ocean.

The bass of legends!

Got to see you live in Memphis quite a few years ago and got to talk to you about basses at the time. You played a Geddy Lee jazz that night and just absolutely killed it!

I remember talking to you about a signature model. This was before the Squiers.

[MeatlolSledge]

Matt you changed my life. I used to try and learn your lines when I was younger for hours and hours. I learned so many techniques that I would use for the rest of my life. Thanks for sharing this content and remaining humble regardless of being a living legend and also many kids’ hero

[kantian]

Hell yeah, show us some more basses you’ve played! So cool to hear all the history of that bass.

[ChristopherGronlund]

I'd love other videos like this -- in addition to play-alongs and other stuff. Pretty much, whatever you want to do or talk about, I'm guessing the majority of us will geek out to it. Thank you for always sharing all you do 😀

This is so exciting. I’m only 20, but I’ve been daydreaming about playing your basslines since I was a 10 year old girl listening to Op Ivy with my dad. I got an electric bass when I was 12 after deciding to pick up the upright, and have been trying to coherently play Op Ivy songs since then. This year, I finally have gotten to that point, and am SO explosively excited about it, and then I stumble upon this channel!!!! What a blessing!!!! You are such an inspiration!

[jkanecutlery]

So cool! Would love to see the jazz and maybe you could talk about the differences and your preferences.
