what is this sound that you desire?

i have a gk 700rb and love the tones i can get out of it.

which amp do you have, which speaker cab and what bass do you use?

its the gk 1001RB-II head through an ashdown ABM mini 48 4x8 cab...the bass is a charvel I believe from 1986, and a 2004 Rickenbacker. I want a real growl to my sound but i find that it's either too glassy or too boomy, i can't seem to find the middle ground, I play with a pick too which doesn't really help the glassy side of it (don't know if picks are taboo here i'm new)
