"I think I own about five of that specific model that I play on stage…They are ’59 re-issues. I have other basses as well, but I love using those particular basses live. I have a few other P-basses that I keep at home and record with that I won’t take on tour because I don’t want them to get “hurt”…The white one and the black one I play live have been on the road with me since 2003. They rule." is the word of Cone talking about this bass
