    The Reverb Thread

    Yeah, until I joined this forum I had no idea how many bassists were rocking effects pedals. I remember a few years ago I asked for a Line-6 DD4 and the guy looked at me weird because I played bass. haha I will have to go through this thread with my headphones on and check the different...

    The Reverb Thread

    Certainly if I had more money and was more dedicated to acquiring better equipment, I would use a much better reverb pedal. For the time being I have been using a DigiTech DigiVerb for general ambience on bass. Not for traditional bass riffs, but for chording and/or tap harmonics and simulated...

    Harmonics and simulated violin sound

    The grey pedal is the Boss DD-6 (digital delay). I think I have it set to reverse delay with the feedback cranked 100% so when I bend the string, fading in with the volume pedal and followed by reverb, I punch in the DD-6 for a second after to get that ambient sound. Or after some harmonics...

    Harmonics and simulated violin sound

    Thanks, yeah it is fun to play like that. Here is a video demonstration of the Boss RC-3 Loop Station and my layering of 4 different bass tracks: Chording, Tap Harmonics, Ambience and Violin.

    Cool effects WITHOUT using pedals

    I use this piece of metal as a slide. I am not entirely sure what it is called or what it is normally used for, but it's the kind of thing you would find in your garage. It works quite well as a slide.

    Harmonics and simulated violin sound

    I very often utilize a technique involving harmonics on a Fender Jazz. With the high volume knob all the way up and the lower 3/4's to get the best ring sound. Sometimes I will use some effects such as the Memory Man analog delay. But for the most part I use chording and smacking the string...

    Greetings from the Pacific Northwest

    Hey, I am Alex. I have been rocking a Fender Jazz bass for 16 years. Long enough to have developed a unique way of playing it which now involves harmonics, chording and a chain of effects pedals (and sometimes a piece of metal sliding along the strings to simulate a violin sound). The Fender...
