I vaguely remember reading something about the bassist using a russian muff somewhere. Does that sound about right?

Any other recommendations that will get me in the same sonic ball park?

Thanks for any help.

Yeah 'Lapsed Catholics' is great. When I saw them live, he used a P-bass through an Ashdown ABM head but I didn't get a gander at his pedals.

Apparently the new bassist is using a fredric effects green russian muff live so I might have to see if I can get my hands on one of those.

All I want is a bass tone that sounds like it wan't to kill everyone in the local vicinity.

Check out their previous band Mclusky too if you haven't already. Highly recommended.

I got a Fredric effects harmonic percoalator off ebay for about £50 and I've seen the big muff clones on there too. Sellers name is 'timhulio' and I think he's the guy that makes them as he always has Fredric effects stuff for sale although no muffs at the moment.

I've heard bits of McLusky but never got into them massively. Saw them live at Reading many years ago although didn't appreciate them as much as I should have at the time.

Edit - you've reminded me of a gap in my music collection and the 3 disc version of McLuskyism is downloading from Amazon as we speak.

Looks like a green Big Muff, Boss Octaver and a TU-2 in this shot. [url="http://www.popmusicology.com/userimages/user-386203_1170288368.JPG"]http://www.popmusico..._1170288368.JPG[/url]

Nice sound he has in that clip. :)

Thanks for that man! Been trying to find a pic of his gear for ages.

Enjoy. Some great stuff on there. First time I heard 'random celebrity insult generator' I creased up with laughter.

I'll keep my eye on that ebay store.

How have you found the harmonic percolator on bass?
