Hi tomb. You made me discover a band ! What an awesome bass sound !

I made some searches an I found that Jared Warren uses a Barker Bassmaster ([url="http://www.malekkoheavyindustry.com/index.php/b-assmaster"]this thing[/url]). But, he uses a Boss Super Overdrive ([url="http://www.bossus.com/gear/productdetails.php?ProductId=133"]this thing[/url]) which goes into a separate channel which connects to a Sunn Beta Bass. Plus, he splits the channel a third time into a Crate 2x12 combo. Thats all. The Bassmaster is perhaps a good way to take to imitate his sound ? I don't think that he uses the Bassmaster and his intricate thing with the Super Overdrive together.

Let's just expect for the other Basschatters opinions !

Oh oh, you don't wanna come in here!
You'll end up spending more on pedals than you will on basses & amps!

The B:Assmaster gets the thumbs up from a load of folk on here. To get that sort of sound in the vid there's many a cheaper option that will get you close. It's a heavy overdrive sound that he has, so look for distortion fuzz or overdrive pedals (there's plenty of posts in the Effects section) & get listening on YouTube.
