I've been really geeking out about the bass tone on Street Hassle. Really curious what it is. I can take a guess at Jazz Bass into a cranked SVT (really playing the odds on that one...). Any other ideas or insights?

Here's a live recording. Bad quality, but a similar tone, more saturated:

I'm wondering how they got the bass sound on "Metal Machine Music."
