[Stickk]

As requested by TheDialog.
Basses

-Arctic White Fender Precision Bass w/ a white pickguard


-70's Sunburst Fender Precision Bass w/ a black pickguard


-Fiesta Red Rickenbacker 3000


-Black Rickenbacker 3000


Amplification

-2 Ampeg SVT-VR Heads
-2 Ampeg 810AV Cabinets

Pedalboard

-None. He gets his distortion by switching to one of his amps that heats up because it has a high-gain

[jayk]

He uses a Bass Big Muff, a Ehx Pog and a Tu2 He also has some sort of wah pedal and something else which i dont know (at the moment).
He is now using a natural/ black p bass and a Gretsch G6119BO Broadkaster.
His amp is some sort of Fender Vintage amp.

Hope this helps someone.

My pal Riff West from Molly Hatchet used to use a 3000...sounded great. Gnarly little bass, that one.

[TheDialog]

hey jayk - do you know which pog he's using?
the amp is a fender bassman 100...early this year he was using the matching cyclone cab
if anyone is interested...the DI on his amp in that picture is a gas cooker

[TheDialog]

Is that definitely a 3000 or could it be 3001...the second looks like 3 knobs...anyone help?

[MikeBass]

A P-Bass and an SVT.....now that's what I call original.
But, a classic tone!

He's currently using a Fender Bassman 100 head with an Ampeg 810. He's also using the Rick 3000 series basses, 70's P's, Gretsch Broadkaster, etc. etc. A little less standard

[redielg]

He definitely plays a 70s natural ash Precision.

[Strikebass]

I was told he uses bass big muff, pog and also some good octaver. The overdrive, if I'm not wrong, comes from the head (ampeg, ridicously pricey)

I play in an Artic Monkeys tribute so this is helpful. TY!

[loendmaestro]

Those are 3001 models.

What about the Bass Big Muff pedal? Is it true? Everywhere are just informations about the second amp head..
