Recording Notes

• The bass was likely DI'd and blended with a mic'd amp cabinet.
• The aggressive fuzz tone is a key component, achieved with the Z.Vex Woolly Mammoth.
• The Line 6 Filter Pro is used to create a unique synth-like filter effect on the bass.

Recreation Tips

• Start with a Fender Precision Bass for its fundamental tone.
• Use an Ampeg SVT-VR to provide a solid and powerful amp foundation.
• Dial in the Z.Vex Woolly Mammoth for a thick and saturated fuzz.
• Experiment with the Line 6 Filter Pro to get the synth-like filter effect, focusing on resonant sweeps and modulation.
• Blend a DI signal with the mic'd amp to capture both clarity and warmth.
