uk_lefty Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Everything goes through my Hartke bass attack to add some subtle grit to the sound. Would love to have a trace Elliot rig available all the time but had to sell it ages ago so I get the core tone from my pedals and basses only. I play my p bass with flats and tone wide open for a deliberate clanky sound, but it's a damn good bass and retains the mid presence well even with clank and grit in the sound. For some songs I'll pull out the jazz and I have the bridge pickup fully up and neck pickup only on a touch, tone wide open, same pedal settings so I get a much more dry and snappy sound for some ham-fisted slap and finger funk. when changing basses in a set I'll rarely adjust my pedals or amps, just use the tone and pickup controls on the bass. Then the sound guy puts you through the pa as a deep sub rumble and none of it was worthwhile anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounding like me is fairly easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
