Recording Notes

• The bass was likely recorded with a combination of a direct input and a mic'd amplifier.
• The Ampeg SVT is known for its powerful low-end response, which contributes to the song's driving feel.
• The AKG D112 is a common choice for bass drum and bass cabinet recording due to its ability to handle high SPL levels and capture low frequencies effectively.

Recreation Tips

• Start with a Fender Jazz Bass and an Ampeg SVT amplifier.
• Experiment with overdrive settings on the amp to achieve the desired level of aggression.
• Use an AKG D112 or similar microphone to capture the amplifier's sound.
• Blend the mic'd signal with a direct input signal for added clarity and punch.
• Consider using a compressor to even out the dynamics and further enhance the attack.
