jonnybass Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 Birlliant, totally nailing it. As a Rush fan for longer than I remember I'd happily go and see these guys. Bass tone is totally nailed (IMO) Jonny 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 (edited) I saw a touring Italian Rush trib called 'La Villa Strangiato' last year, they were excellent right up until the guitarist's rig completely went on the fritz. These guys are just as good in every way. If they come to my neck of the woods, I'd definitely go check them out. Hopefully by then the vocalist won't need to crib the lyrics off a tablet. That bass tone is absolutely spot on. As an aside, my first band at school was called 'Emotional Feedback'. We weren't a Rush trib, we just liked the name. I suspect this bunch are rather better than we were. Edited January 18 by Rich 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzz Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 Musically bang on, tho the singer sounds like he's right at the very top of his comfort range - here's a different approach that I like (tho IMHO, YMMV, etc) - again, musically bang on, and a girl singist works for me... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As hard as I have tried I could never sustain a beard of that magnitude (he's also a better bass player than me when it comes to Rush, despite me having a GL sig Jazz, 70s Ricky 4001, Geddy preamp pedal and endless enthusiasm for the music) Full disclosure: the singer is a good friend and one of the nicest guys there are, and fronts up more heavy rock covers acts in south-west London than I could possibly remember. I'll be sending on your reviews. Edited January 18 by toneknob 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do quite like YYNOT, and while I appreciate Tim Starace's playing his tone always seems a bit tinny for me, even through decent headphones. I think I prefer Rocky Kuner as a vocalist as well, but there's not much in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only stuff of YYNOT's I've heard is live, I'd imagine in a more controlled environment like the OP's vid the actual sounds might be closer...

For the gear nerds among us, can you run through your rig? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemibass Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 I have been planning on doing a full rig rundown on my Youtube channel for a while but I have a new bass on order and kind of want to wait until that arrives before I make the video, but I can quickly list my gear here if you are interested. My main bass is a MIJ Geddy Lee Jazz bass from the mid-late 2000s, and I play that with Rotosound Swingbass66 strings. I have a Tech-21 GED-2112 Sansamp and a Trace Elliot GP12X (distorted sound and clean sound) which I blend to get the bass sound I want. Those go into a Palmer PDI-05 speaker simulator. It's a similar setup to what Geddy used in the Test for Echo era, which is my favourite tone of his. Here is my Youtube for anyone interested: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4dlAoqg21GSUqNZX3GuA9w 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
