    While in this area, you can consider Chris Ballew, from The Presidents of the United States of America. He lived and played with Mark before forming PUSA. He played bass parts on a 2 string 'basitar' guitar body with bass strings, also tuned in fifths. (C#, G#)

    Def one of the most original and underrated bass players in rock...thanks for covering. RIP

    REST IN PEACE, MARK. Just realized he passed away 25 years ago TODAY, on July 3, 1999.

    "He (Mark Sandman) had an amazing feel and was very creative. It’s not like he was a technical wizard: he was all about emotion." by Les Claypool when asked about his favorite bass albums.

    no one calls it weird. it is original. it is art. get a clue.

  • @jonesymeow9487

    Let's not forget Morphine was a gutarless band making headway in the thick of the grunge era. It takes talent to pull that off. RIP Mark. It was about to blow up when he passed.

    I’ve literally never heard of this band. Thanks for the music-history lesson, Paul.

    Mark was the bassist that made me take my bass playing seriously, before him I couldn't be bothered to learn the bass, but after I discovered Morphine, I took 2 strings out of my bass and suddenly I was able to express myself musically. :v

    I actually switched to playing guitar this way, but with four strings tuned redundantly in 5ths in the center of the neck after a wrist injury, Morphine gave me the idea.

    Incredible artist - everyone check out "Cure For Pain: The Mark Sandman Story" Documentary. Also all of their albums. My fave is "Like Swimming"

    Very nice video, Probably the most detailed one I have seen in regards to Mark Sandman. I play slide bass as well and of course am inspired by Sandman. He was truly an innovator!

    Thanks so much for telling more people about the amazing Mark Sandman and Morphine and for laying out the fundamentals of his style!

  • @Gritpipe-Thinn

    Most Morphine songs are tuned in fifths, (D A or G C) but a few, like "I Know You III" and "Super Sex" are tuned to octaves (A A), and "Whisper" is tuned A F.
