Farida FJB-6 Bass on my new song...

[All thumbs]

Here's a nearly finished track I wrote featuring Joe Crabtree from Wishbone Ash on drums, Paul Williams on guitars and myself on bass, vocals and percussion.

It's kinda 'Extreme' ish?!

I used the Farida FJB-6 on this di-d then through the Ampeg Bass amp plugin.

A bit more rocky than my usual stuff :-)

I think this is the final mix now! Any thoughts/comments welcome :-)

Sticks head above parapet!

I'd suggest some more "light 'n shade". Dip the master volume a touch during the verses and then let the volume rise during the choruses. The rhythm guitar with effects pedal is often too prominent and competes too strongly with the vocals and other instruments.

The bass is nicely in the mix; sounds great when you give it some welly!

So how's that from someone who is a complete amateur and doesn't know his fuzz from his overdrive.

The Bass sounds great, very tight playing. I can't comment on the mix too much as I'm listening on a laptop
