Brian Bass Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Although I’ve been playing for many years, I’ve never really dabbled in effects pedals. Could anyone help with what the type of pedal needed for the George Ezra ‘Shotgun’ bass sound please ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJE Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 I could be wrong but I thought a lot of the sound was down to it being on fretless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cato Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 (edited) I thought it was either a fretless with a touch of chorus or some sort of synth/sequencer thingie. You can get some of the way towards that sound with a chorus pedal and maybe some reverb but a fretted bass will never be able to produce the slides and vibrato that can be got from a fretless.

Beedster Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 I get what to my ear is the tone on the track with a fretless with no FX. I'm not suggesting that others would necessarily agree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scalpy Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 There’s some room ambience on it a la Graceland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
