      I see that quite a few of you mentioned Chris Squire.
      Although he is a phenomenal musician I never liked his tone. Not enough girth and way too much high end and the pick attack is distracting

        I had an Epiphone EB-0;

        my favourite bass.

        Unfortunately, i lost it in an accident. :/

        But if I can find one used; I'll buy one in a hurry!! especially nice, with flats!

        great value for the money aswell.
        If somethings important- send a PM. I might be offline for long periods. Rock on!!!

          The high end was the treble pickup through a Marshall guitar amp. The low end is the other pickup through an SVT. Similar to the way Billy Sheehan does his rig.
          Dave LaRue from the Dixie Dregs & Flying Colors gets a great tone, which keeps the articulation there through very fast playing.

              ^ I remember thinking the bass sounded epic when I saw them junior year in 02 or so. That was when I only played bass. He was pumping 8ths and the band was cooking as hell. I was so impressed.

              I love punk bass. You can do so much cuz the guitars are playing power chords the whole time so the bass can define the tonality and do whatever it wants.

                The acoustic bass on Alice In Chains' MTV Unplugged moves me everytime.

                      When you're listening to this song and the bass break comes in, anything you're doing is suddenly 10X cooler

                      You will never understand How it feels to live your life With no meaning or control And with nowhere left to go You are amazed that they exist And they burn so bright
