Critic Reviews

The Mysterious History of George Harrison’s “Mad” Bartell Fretless | GuitarPlayer

guitarplayer.com

This editorial delves into the fascinating history of George Harrison's Bartell Fretless Bass, a unique instrument that adds an unusual chapter to Beatles lore. While the piece uncovers intriguing details about the guitar's creation and its connection to figures like Paul Barth and Ray Russell, it lacks thorough insight into the instrument's performance and sound quality. The review is more a historical exploration than a critical assessment, leaving readers curious about practical aspects of the bass itself. Overall, it's an informative read for Beatles enthusiasts, but less so for musicians seeking detailed gear analysis.
