this is actually pretty good, the only thing it needs is something like a transparent overdrive with the gain all the way down, just to give it that tight low end and extra “clank”

@pideuhweuh8459 4 ай бұрын

Actually what it need is lighter strings and low action, makes a world of difference for this kind of tones. I play 55-110 in drop B with the action as low I can go, works wonderfully !

@@krms2504 on the sansamp or the amp ? Sansamp: Drive: 5/ Presence: 7/ Blend:4/ Bass: 6/ Mids and Highs: 2. Adjust level to something coherent (arround 4 in my case) . Tip: if tone is too dark or bright, adjust the blend, not the highs Peavey pro 500: most controls are to adapt to the rest of the rig but some key points: high boost and low cut engaged, contour cranked. Highs are on 2 on my unit but YMMV. For the parametric EQ i'd say noodle arround to find sweet spots but a heavy scoop at 800 hz is the core.

1. He played an active Ibanez. 2. He has a distortion on, most likely a rat because he loved that thing. 3. He hit hard with his heavy gauge pick, he also had low action so it was naturally distorting.

Stingray, loose strings, heavy cut on mids, tilt bass and treble just a bit and use an ampeg. Also, it’s good to mention that he did use a sans amp bass di. Edit: The gear I’m talking about is the stuff I use. I know about his ATK (I wish I had it) and that he used a Warwick as well, but you can get insanely close with just those pieces of gear.

Paul actually used VERY light gauge strings for the tuning they were in, which is a huge part of his tone. He used a .115 gauge for the low B, which is about what most people would normally use for C#. He also had super low action, half of his tone is literally just clanky fret buzz. And he used basses with active soapbar humbuckers. You'll never get that thick, aggressive attack out of a Rick
