Mark Hoppus used a custom Fender Jazz‑body bass with Precision pickups, first seen in the “Adam’s Song” video; previously used Music Man StingRay early in career ([it.wikipedia.org](https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fender_Mark_Hoppus_Jazz_Bass?utm_source=openai))
Tone Character(3)
punchy mid‑rangetight low endlayered bass tracks (root + power‑chord doubling)
Difficulty
The bass part is relatively straightforward with steady root‑note patterns, but includes some chordal layering and muting technique that elevate it slightly above beginner level.
