The "one" tone that I've been looking for for a long time is probably best represented here: http://www.archive.org/download/soul...-30t06_vbr.mp3
I don't know who Soulhat's bassist was on this recording (they had a few) and I have no idea what his setup was, but this is the tone that I dig. Beautiful growl with articulation galore.
Post clips of bassists whose tone you want and the equipment they use.

Other tones I covet are things like Mark King's Status tone, and I can get a good version of that going too! |

George Porter Jr's recent live tone sample
Tony Franklin's early 'Firm' tone sample
Lucky Scott on Mayfield's "Curtis Live!" link to samples
Tyrone Brown on Grover Washington Jr's "Live at the Bijou" link to samples |

Billy Gould, Aria Pro Integra bass, Peavey Mark III or IV amp, 1820 cabinet.(I got closer to this tone with my Ric than with my Aria Pro)

Dan Andriano is a pretty awesome bassist, especially for a punk bassist. Classic jazz through Ampeg sound, love it...
