    *******Keeping it simple really! BASSic as would a Foundation be. A GOOD foundation of Percussion with BASSic anchored itself tightly together and strong provides great Towerings of Rhythm and Melody to Structurally remain Sound! Ya gotta have it! Doesn't always have to be Techy, Mathmatical and mind blowing to be Rock Solid. However...keep it passionate, Emotional and Human!!!*******

      @@carloquibot I don’t know about SMFS or the early days but during MANIA era mostly it was synth bass which I guess was programmed by Patrick or Butch. Even the one’s that has actual bass in it was recorded by them. Just watch the Church breakdown video, Pat talks about how he and Butch came up with the bassline

      @@fxEpT7Si I think it's possible Patrick and the producers play it when Pete can't, but if it's simple enough Pete probably plays it. Though his live performances do make me wonder, as the album/studio bass always sounds way more confident and together.

      @@fxEpT7Sifor Mania i do also believe its synth bass and in Church it is plainly stated by Patrick that Butch made the bassline, but for most of the old albums if you separate the bassline you can hear Pete's playing, the tendency to hit every string while muting them, and the streamline bass playing, its mostly him. I came to the conclusion that if there was any bass part that was a little more complex, they( Patrick and whoever would be the producer at the time) would over dub it while keeping Petes work overall on the easiest parts. I can hear this specially in Folie a Deux in songs like disloyal order and wams.

      Think about this for a second
      When he was young and selling lots of records he signed to fender and I know there was money in it because they all came to fender eventually.
      Today he doesn’t have anybody to answer to but himself his band isn’t in a label etc
      Looks like when this happens bands feel very free
      And this is the bass he chose after that experience
