Recording Notes

• The bass was recorded through a Vox AC100 amplifier, likely miked with a Neumann U47 or similar high-quality microphone.
• The bass sound features a slightly overdriven tone, achieved by pushing the amp or using a fuzz pedal, resulting in a warm and full sound that complements the song's melody.

Recreation Tips

• Use a Höfner-style bass or any short-scale bass with flatwound strings to get a similar fundamental tone.
• Dial in a warm, slightly overdriven tone using a Vox-style amp model or overdrive pedal.
• Record with a microphone that captures the full frequency range of the bass, focusing on the low-mid frequencies.
