Yeah that’s pretty much what I do, with a bit of mid for clarity 6 minutes ago, SumOne said: I'm getting quite into using a foam mute for the early Ska sound. I like the foam mute sometimes, on one of my precision’s I’ve got the bassmute, which you can switch on and off, but imo they are expensive 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reggaebass Posted May 21, 2021 Author Share Posted May 21, 2021 Don’t think we’ve had this one, nice Bassline, definitely some muting going on, unless it’s an upright , what do you think 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever since doing a recording with a mute, I've been really enjoying the sound and feel, especially on a my new short scale. I'd like a BassMute, but as you have said, they are a tad spiteful in terms of price and only available on import (?). The Grossman looks like the best option as the Nordymute don't do the string spacing I need in a 4. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That one looks similar to The Fump, looks a bit of a faff but better than some random foam stuffed under the strings, looking like a burst mattress. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recently got this one to try, which is quick and easy but it does mute quite a lot, which is good if your looking for that sound in particular, but it’s a bit much for me in normal use 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reggaebass Posted May 22, 2021 Author Share Posted May 22, 2021 Really like the vocals on this, but I can’t make up my mind on the song , I think it needs dubbing up😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldslapper Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 This lot are a bit commercial for your average dubster 😂 I remember seeing them at Hammy odeon supporting AWB. But this bass line was great to use for teaching a nice reggae line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
