Bunion Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 (edited) Sounds like a P bass with valve o/d from the look of the videos I saw he’s using a Marshall super bass Edited April 19, 2022 by Bunion 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ped Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 I think jazz with some drive. 70s spacing. Fresh strings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Athough usually used with guitar, the zvex super hard on might be appropriate 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SumOne Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 I'd guess P Bass with tone up, played with a plectrum, fresh steel strings with a low enough action that they get a bit buzzy, then some sort of overdrive then EQ'd with high-mids and treble turned up. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vin Venal Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Love Viagra Boys. Great bass tone on that song. Shades of JJ Burnel. Most pictures online show him playing a jazz bass, seemingly modified with active electronics. A few pictures of a P bass too. Backline mostly seems to be SVTs and ampeg stacks - 2018 rider stipulates this for backline. Reckon you could get this tone pretty easy with a P bass, or favouring the neck pickup on a J, into a sansamp or an OD pedal that simulates that ampeg grind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hazyseas Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 It's a Tronographic Rusty Box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davy VB Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 I've got this picture from his pedalboard. Saw them on soundcheck yesterday, he switches back and forth between the Black pedal and the gold one on his board. The RustyBox is always on. Can someone identify these two pedals? Thanks!

Guest Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 The gold pedal is an Earthquaker Hoof, the black is a Ross Distortion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
