Recording Notes

  • The bass sound is heavily distorted, likely achieved by running the bass through a ProCo RAT or similar distortion pedal.
  • The recording has a raw, somewhat lo-fi quality, which could be due to the recording environment or deliberate mixing choices.

Recreation Tips

  • Start with a Fender Precision Bass for its inherent low-mid punch.
  • Use a ProCo RAT distortion pedal for a thick, gritty distortion. Experiment with different settings to find the sweet spot.
  • Consider using a darker tone with less high-end clarity. This can be achieved with EQ or by using a darker-sounding amp.
  • Experiment with different bass strings to get the correct sound.
