Jack Casady, along with the Beach Boys' Brian Wilson and the Beatles' Paul McCartney, is one of the greatest bass players in the history of rock, known by both fans and players for his signature sound. Casady took to electric bass after years of study on other instruments. "My first teacher was a big band guitarist named Harry Vorhees,” Casady told Epiphone.com. “Later on I took from a number of guitarists; one was Bill Harris who was the guitarist for the Clovers. He had studied with a guy who studied with Andres Segovia." In search of the Holy Grail of Bass Tone
