Recording Notes

• The bass was likely recorded in a studio environment with careful attention to capturing a clean and clear tone.
• Direct injection may have been blended with a miked amplifier to achieve the final sound.

Recreation Tips

• Use a Fender Precision Bass with flatwound strings for a similar fundamental tone.
• An Ampeg SVT amplifier will provide the necessary low-end punch and mid-range clarity.
• Experiment with blending a direct input signal with a miked amplifier to achieve the desired balance between clarity and warmth.
• Use a dynamic microphone such as the AKG D12 or similar for capturing the amplifier's tone.
• Focus on a clean and articulate playing style to bring out the melodic qualities of the bass line.
