Recording Notes

• The bass was likely recorded with a combination of direct input and a miked amplifier.
• Experiment with different microphone placements on the Ampeg cabinet to find the sweet spot.

Recreation Tips

• Use a Fender Precision Bass with flatwound strings for a similar vintage feel.
• Start with a clean amp setting on the Ampeg SVT-VR, focusing on a balanced EQ.
• Blend the direct input signal with the miked amp signal for added clarity and punch.
• Use slight compression to even out the dynamics and add sustain.
