completecontrol Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Hello all, I'm Alex, bass player in local punk cover band Complete Control. I play Ricky (main bass). Fender Jazz S1 (number 2 for when the punters are too rowdy) and Precision for less trebly stuff. I play through a Line 6 400 HD with Ashdown 1 x 15 and 2 x10 superfly cabs (i only have a small car!!) My sound is best described as trebly with a hint of drive a la Bruce Foxton and JJ Burnel. Hence the Ricky and Jazz set through SVT modelling with treble and hi mid up high and compressor up around half. Hit them strings hard and precise and drive the band along. see [url="http://www.completecontrol77.co.uk"]Band site[/url] for the band site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a studio near here that had one of these dating back from the early 90's (or earlier?). I remember them being an outrageously costly...
