HONESTLY, I HAVE NO IDEA. THE PICKUPS LOOK LIKE T-BIRDS, BUT I COULD BE MISTAKEN. THEY PROBABLY AREN'T, I SUPPOSE. ALSO, WHY THE CAPS LOCK?

Does anyone know what pedals Pino is using for the Quadrophenia tour? You can see a board in front of him during a few shots in this video from the 12-12-12 concert. I'm also about 90% sure I'm hearing a bit of octave starting around 10:20. A picture of the board would be most helpful.
 
I saw the Who last week here in Tulsa, and guess which bass Pino played throughout most of the show?


Nope. Not the red Precision.

He played one of these:

And it sounded great. That guy could probably play just about any bass and make it sound great.
 
Pino is playing a Jaguar Bass with DR Black Beauty round wounds thru a Fender SuperBassman 300 with 8x10 cabinet. The other bass onstage is indeed his Fender signature P-Bass with Dr's and old T-Bird pickups like Entwhistle used to play for the Quadrophenia period.
The PedalTrain pedalboard is simple- Snark tuner, Boss Octave and Fender channel switch, VoodooLab Pedal Power+.
