thisnameistaken Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 For bass fuzz I just love what Robert Sledge does with it. Actually, rather than link to Ben Folds Five's old stuff, here's two tunes from the reunion album they released last year, which is surprisingly ace throughout: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7E_mIgD_6w and for lead stuff (around 2m40): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEyrfFwf3rI And for the record I went and saw them on their last tour and my god Robert Sledge is twice the bassist he used to be. He cracked out the upright and the synths as well as his old trusty fuzz bass guitar, really inspirational stuff. Quote
thisnameistaken Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Actually this is the fuzz-bass sound that got me into using effects in the first place: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOXlJfJ-OgA Mark Brydon never gets recognised as being the innovative bass guitarist that he is. I suppose because he's so good at so many other things. Quote
ratman Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Although I don't normally use this much nasty dirt myself, this bass sound rocks.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wc18xt5wQnk Quote

bakerster135 Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Last one! This has to be included, purely for the chorus which is still my favourite dirty bass sound ever! [size=4] [/size] [size=4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=totYCysea4w[/size] Quote
dannybuoy Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) I do enjoy playing this with my Team Awesome Fuzz Machine: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_4gD8oXJ4I[/media] And this one with a Boss ODB-3 which is what they use live too: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asC24XhcoO8[/media] Edited January 10, 2014 by dannybuoy Quote

bakerster135 Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Aye! I think the distortion that comes from his Peavey F-800B is definitely unique as well, I'd be very intrigued if anyone ever put that preamp into a pedal format!... Quote
topheteatwo Posted January 10, 2014 Author Posted January 10, 2014 Hmmmm Would definitely be good idea for an OD pedal! Quote
dannybuoy Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 I thought the DFA1979 distortion sound came from an Acoustic head? If so you can definitely get that in pedal format! Quote
bakerster135 Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 He uses the Peavey and an Acoustic 450, but THAT sound doesn't come from the Acoustic. John K's example shows that off: [url="http://johnkvintageguitars.homestead.com/Effects/360preamp/360_pedal-01-2.jpg"]http://johnkvintageguitars.homestead.com/Effects/360preamp/360_pedal-01-2.jpg[/url] I think it must come from a combination of the two, but I've never heard the Peavey so I'd very much like to!...

topheteatwo Posted January 10, 2014 Author Posted January 10, 2014 And one more, I find this band a bit hit or miss, but Nick Beard's tone is punishingly punchy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9UkfZ58LmY Quote

Great track, but the rest of the album's definitely pretty lame...Juturna was good though! Edited January 10, 2014 by bakerster135 Quote

EliasMooseblaster Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Is this cheating? It's an 8-string bass, and I don't know whether the dirt's from a pedal, or just a tube amp running close to '11.' But it's a hell of a sound: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6fFtWi318s Quote
