Does it have to be a bass? There are a plethora of excellent quality amps and cabs and combos out there too.

Matchstick and a bit of glue worked for me.

Fleetwood Mac - Behind The Mask. Released in 1990 after Lindsey Buckingham quit after the million selling Tango In The Night. They had to get two guys in to replace him. It got panned, but I think its great!

Thumb over the pickup of course. (Unless I play with a pick)

Blonde On Blonde or anything by Bob Dylan. When I first heard Rainy Day Women I thought it was on the wrong speed!

Great addition to the CMD 121. I always turn the tweeter down low on mine, but then again, thats my personal choice.

[quote name='Muppet' timestamp='1484640568' post='3216987'] I find it great for recording too - very tight bass sound that delivers results. [b]Do you know what microphone your engineer used?

Figaro - Brotherhood Of Man

Has anyone used one of these for a recording? I am currently in the studio making an EP with my band, and the engineer miked up the speaker of this little combo, while simultaneously running a line out from the XLR. I must say, I was quite impressed with the sound. I wasnt bothered about miking the speaker, but the engineer said it would sound great. And it did!

Didnt they change the Pickups from 2012 onwards?

I very much doubt you can find a true isolated bassline. A lot of stuff from the 60's were recorded on 3 or 4 track tape. The bass was probably mixed together with the drums and guitars.

Leave it and see how it goes. The effect might be barely noticeable.
