Legendary bassist Pino Palladino has made a lasting impression with his elegant playing and ability to juggle different genres. Whether alongside The Who, in the timeless tracks of Tears For Fears, or on stage with John Mayer, his unique sound and minimalist yet effective approach have become his signature.
His love for flatwound strings dates back to the 1990s, when he adopted a 1960s Precision bass. With Ernie Ball, he sought to recreate the fluid feel and velvety sound that characterized his bass lines.
