Flats with OD/Distortion?

Sign in to disble this ad
Anyone have any clips of someone using flats with overdrive or distortion? Extra points if its TI-Flats and even more if its a fretless bass.

Believe it or not I posted a bunch of clips of a fretless P-bass with a hard-finished ebony board, with Chromes (sorry) through a few different overdrives, distortions, and fuzzes a couple years ago. I'm not hunting for the links for two reasons- one, the clips were too quiet and my playing sucked, and two, they sound the same as any other bass through the same effects. Seriously, it makes absolutely no difference.

grygrx uses TI jazz flats on his (fretted) P bass for all the samples on bassfuzz.com.

Jack Bruce with Cream? It's natural overdrive, it's LaBella Flats, and it's either a Fender Bass VI, a Danelectro, or a Gibson EB-3.
