I had the pleasure of recording a quicky, on the fly, yelling structure changes, 4 minute, no 2nd takes Recording with a "clinging to life" 1962 Fender Jazz Bass...
It's name is "Battleaxe"....not a speck of paint left on the front, very little on the back. The owner scratched all the paint off himself using a "Canadian Nickel" (yeah I'm freaked too!)...also he used to think it was "cool" to hit the Cymbals with the headstock...major gashes!!! (here's a tissue)
Something wrong with bridge pickup, only giving maybe 10% compared to the front (so OFF you go!)
Bridge was replaced, owner still has all original parts.
Recording Info: "Live off the floor"
The bass owner said, "I can give you 10 minutes...then I have to leave"
Bass...Neck pickup only, Medium Compression, very little EQing
GTR: Ibanez AF85 "JazzBox"
Keys: Cheezy Yamaha home keyboard was all that was available, so he made do.
Monitor Mix, "what we heard, is what you hear"
