    So, it turns out my uncle had a late 60s Ric.

    If you ever do locate and or obtain it, I'd love to see some pictures of that bad boy!

    Chuck Dukowski

    Thanks man. How do you suppose he got the distorted sound on Damaged? Overdriving the preamp and a lot of compression? He's had a huge influence on me, too, I definitely agree about the raw emotion thing.

    Sansamp California vs Oxford?

    Which one do you think would be better for heavy fuzz/ distortion tones? I play through a Fender Precision bass and a Peavey 8x10 cabinet, and I need a preamp.

    How to improve my finger-style playing

    I know this has been done a thousand times over, but I couldn't find anything that helped me that much. I play in a band that plays relatively fast music (think Black Flag fast), and I usually use a pick, but I want to switch to fingerstyle. Are there any ways besides practicing that I can...

    Chuck Dukowski

    From Black Flag. How can you NOT respect this guy? Great player, great song writer, cool guy. I know there are a lot of Black Flag fans out there.. so show yourselves! On another note, does anyone know what amp equipment Chuck used? The most I've seen is a Marshall Super Bass head and an...

    How to go about eqing in my situation?

    Alright man, thanks. I'll ask him about easing up on the lows a bit. I don't think he needs THAT much, considering he uses only his neck pickup when he plays. Also, how could I emphasize that midrange that you mentioned? A graphic equalizer?

    How to go about eqing in my situation?

    Hi, I play in a three piece band, and my guitarist uses a 4x12 cabinet with some Fender head. He uses a B: assmaster fuzz pedal, so his tone is pretty scooped and bassy. I don't have a problem with this at all, as this is how we want it to sound, but I don't know what kind of bass tone would fit...

    Any idea on how to go about either of these tones?

    That's exactly what I was thinking.

    Any idea on how to go about either of these tones?

    In this one I was thinking maybe an Ampeg of some sort? Although, in the Decline Of Western Civilization I saw a Marshall super-bass head with a J-bass hooked up to it. The only thing keeping me from thinking that's the thing is that the Decline was shot around 79-80 and this was recorded around...

    Man, any idea on how he got this tone?

    Go to this page and listen to "Modest Machine". At about 48 seconds in you can hear the bass without any guitars.

    Man, any idea on how he got this tone?

    I found something useful guys! http://www.last.fm/music/Black+Sheep+Wall/+images/29946527 Can anyone tell me what kind of bass that is? I know it's a Schecter, but I haven't seen one in that color. Basically he is running a RAT into a SansAmp BDDI (or ParaDriver?) and then an amp head which...

    Man, any idea on how he got this tone?

    You guys think that if I were to blend my Marshall Guv'nor going into a GK 700rb heavily boosted with a ton of mids through a 4x10 cab of some kind than I could get something like that tone?

    Man, any idea on how he got this tone?

    I guess it could, but I don't feel that I could get anywhere near this say, with my (don't have it anymore) RBI. This tone has more of a solid-state distortion sound to it. Although, you could be right.
