You guys both have experience with Sansamp stuff, whatdya think?

Yep, def ok-ish GK sound, a bit dated & synthy too, rather than growly, modern, and mean...

He's running a distortion (bddi?) On a wick for AIC. The Spector does that naturally.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Mar 2007 Location: White Plains | | | Mike Inez plays a Warwick SS1 with a pick into a pair of SVT-II Pro's feeding a pair of Ampeg 8X10's.
As mentioned above, he also uses Spector. His SS1 has EMG PJ's with a P reversed and an EMG preamp. The NS2 and SS1 are fairly similar construction and wood wise.
No clue about his pedalboard.

| | | | My newer bass is a nice custom bolt-on 4-string that has EMG P/J pickups with a bass/treble preamp. It's not a hefty beast, but it has a mahogany body and maple/rosewood neck. It could get me a whole lot closer to that sound than my passive J-bass for sure.
Careful with the BDDI. While it can get up toward an overdriven sound, it can also bury a lot of mids that might be not so helpful with trying to bring out that big diesel tone. |

| | | | Yep, sounds like EMGs, pick and Ampeg turned up with the mids high. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
