I don't what Steve does but I play it with two fingers... It's pretty hard but still possible. And seems like Steve does too, at least in this vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9OAfOwTZaU :D

I know, what I meant was that if you play very close to the bridge, it's almost impossible to get the strings hit the frets to get the "clanky" sound... At least I can't do it :D

Yeah, of course you have to play with the right technique too (tried the bass a few days ago) but the signature is the closest replica of his bass available. If you play with the excact same techinque as Harris does but use a fretless Warwick or something like that, you won't get the same...

No, he doesn't. Check this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOBLk6VHgJc

I also learned to play with only three but sometimes you might need all four. I almost wasn't able to play with my pinkie at all, it kind of locked from the joint. Then I practiced it for some time and now I can play with it. Still feels pretty unnatural but it's easier now and really useful in...

Yeah, I remember when I changed to bass, it felt huge. Then, after not touching guitar in a few months, guitars felt like tiny toys :) And about the amount of fingers you use: just use the ones you feel comfortable with. I have never liked playing with three fingers so I play with two. It's not...

Here are the things I can think of that would make you sound more like Steve: - Flats (maybe his custom rotosounds if you really want the exact same tone) - EQ settings: much high but some low too, something like 3 low, 5 mid and 7 high. Experiment and you'll find what works for you - Try to...

Sound clips... Please ;)

You've just inspired me to make something to my old B.C. Rich :)

Ok, so practicing isn't really necessary :) Hopefully the neck goes well because it's absolutely the hardest part to build...

Practising is really important for a first-timer, especially if you're gonna use some expensive woods. Just take some really cheap wood (I think you can get some from school for free) and make a quick copy of the bass you're going to build. I think it's better to mess up with a cheap or free...

Ehm... If I ever use some other username than the ones I use now, I'm definitely gonna google it before registering anywehere with it :D

So I must be number 28. From Vantaa if anyone's interested... I'm gonna start a bass project soon too, at school. It's gonna be all-wenge :hyper: It's my first project so I need to practice a little before I can start doing it. So you (and I) will have to wait some time. Will probably start...

Just use some good equalizer. Transcribe! is a pretty good software for that. iTunes also has a surprisingly good equalizer. Just experiment with different settings and you'll find the best one for you. Mixing of the song also affects the outcome a lot.If the mix is bad, you won't have very good...

That's not a bad idea at all... I think I can even get some woods for free. Wenge really is too rare and expensive to mess up with...
