I tend to play with a pick and loved his tone on the early Megadeth albums. I just can't get into the new Deth stuff without him. He managed to make some very creative lines without getting in the way of the song. |

His tone with that Jackson is great, too. If I could find one like that, I would have it. I love the sharkfins

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Apr 2009 Location: Stockholm | | Dave & Cliff Burton were the ones that made me pick up the bass in the first place, so Dave's been a huge influence! I haven't listened to Megadeth for some time though, but most of his basslines from the good ol' days will probably stick with me forever... |

After the last couple albums, I would definitely disagree.
Megadeth is Mustaine and Ellefson. |

Megadeth is Mustaine and Ellefson. | +100
Ellefson contributed a TON to writing Megadeth's material.

| | | | I agree Dave Ellefson is a very underrated player , I love his playing on Youthanasia , he has a very punchy, ballsy tone and unlike a lot of bass players in the rock/metal genre his playing can be clearly heard and is not buried under the guitars | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
