Soko: I had barely any gear with me before a European tour I was going to do, and renting a bass for the whole tour was going to be almost the same price as buying one. So, I treated myself to this baby, vintage super-lightweight little Mustang, and it’s my favorite instrument to play ever since. I actually get quite uncomfortable playing other/bigger basses now.
