I never like the stone roses even though a few of their bass parts were very musical and catchy. After watching the shane meadows documentary I found I really enjoy their music.
Dd verni was endorsed by bc rich basses ghs strings and peavey/Marshall amps.
I think the difference in their sound was the active pickups and they mixed their albums so you could hear the bass.
W f o has a very loud bass sound for a metal album.
What are you planning to play in your set? I know the first album is generally considered to be their most popular but I have a soft spot for the third album too.
