Bass anyone?

[Simon Dorn]

Actually i wanted to record a little "scooped" clip with my Marshall. I think it sounds as vintage and as ultra modern as it gets at the same time - not to say timeless, but i was surprised how good the Bass sounds, even with a Pod Go. Bass tones seems to be less of an issue with it. I'm not a fan of Modellers anymore, but with Bass you can get away with 'em. Who of you has a Bass, or more?

 

[BeZo]

Yes. I bass.

I used an SVT through an 8x10 with three mics on it the other day to track for a project. I'm a Spector player through and through, and used my Forte 4 to record.

I’m guilty of playing a bit of bass

I have a Fender P-bass. I generally play it through my AxeFX using a Bassman-type model.

Got a steal 8 years ago from GC on a 5 string bongo with dead 9 volts in it.

Like OBI-NWK, mostly use fractal. Tom Hamilton gift of tone is a great launch point

.

Love crafting bass lines:

My main instrument, love the bass...

Music Man Stingray 5 fretted and fretless here.

I have an old Cort 5-string fretless too for noodling. It was super-cheap new and I guess I fell for it.

I played drums a few years. Then bass for a year or two before focus on guitar. I have always had a bass around. I do some writing on bass and keyboards. Currently a Warwick Corvette.
ToneX is the only digital I own. Works fine with bass.
As for amps THD BiValve with KT88 or Mesa Heartbreaker in blackface mode into a 2x12 with EVM12L cab.

I should probably go through my pedals and see what works. Compression and fuzz, etc... RAT is interesting with bass.

 

[Simon Dorn]

Interesting. I did not expect to see so many cool Bass-Rigs here. Here is what i have at my disposal:
Cab is US-Made, Head is made in China. I'd rather have a US-Modell, but it is what it is.

RT bros representing the low end with style, I must say.

Yeah! Fretless!

I bought this for my daughter a long time ago.

She lives in London so it's mine now.

I've lost track of what bass gear I own (juggernauts fault,every bit of it is his fault). I know the mesa cabs are mine, and I have some basses. I even got a Lemmy Ric copy. And a Darkglass Alpha Omega head I haven't seen in years...ok,it's not juggernauts fault I haven't seen it but it's his fault I bought it. As is the vintage Hamer bass. And the G&L. Yep...I'm blaming juggernaut because it's easier than taking personal responsibility for my actions.

If I ever get an SVT it will be this one!

I've no doubt brother.

Always had a soft spot for Warwick.

 

[Soundstorm]

Just sold my Warwick Corvette after having only Warwick basses for years, and picked this up new- Dingwall NG2, factory setup for BEAD. This into Neural DSP Parallax is just unstoppable. The longer scale 36.5” low B is unreal.

@Simon Dorn have you tried Parallax? Killer tones and riffs as usual! Love me some ESP
