    Cliff Burtons tone(i know how to use the search button)

    Very good! Cliff did use funkmasters. He also used a compressor(Boss CS-2). I keep the wah on, i use morleys like he did. I think he uses the wah even without the solo, I could be wrong but i sound closer with the wah. :bassist:

    ever wonder why you cant hear robert trujillo bass with metallica?

    I'm pretty sure Cliff boosted his mids, which is why you can hear him. That's how i get his tone, bass at about 11 o'clock, mids at 4 o'clock, treble at 1 o'clock. big muff, morley power wah, behringer cs400, ts9 tubescreamer

    Ultimate Metal Pedal Board

    Big Muff, Morley Power Wah Boost/Fuzz(Depends on song and my mood), Behringer CS400 Compressor, Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer. I add some pedals for more prog style songs like the digitech bass synth wah and i take off the compressor and wah for example, I almost always use the Big Muff no matter...

    Peavey = garbage?

    There's only two brands of amps that I use, Peavey my clean amp and Mesa, my distorted. Peaveys have the best clean tone I can find in my opinion, and an awesome distorted tone, but NOTHING beats the mesa distorted tone. I would highly recommend a peavey because they are NOT garbage.

    I have been needing to replace the bridge on my ESP-LTD B-104 for a while now. I have a Rickenbacker 4001/4003 spare bridge, would it be possible to put that bridge on the specified bass...I know I'm probably going to feel stupid when people say "of course" or "definitely not" but I am new to...

    Has the cost of shipping basses gone WAY up?

    YES!!! At guitar center, I paid $50 for shipping a $100 bass. It was just ridiculous. Still, my favorite bass and way worth it:bassist::)

    What made you become a bassist? How did yo u get into it?

    Simple and short story, I heard For Whom the Bell Tolls and when I found out the intro was on a bass, I knew I had to play bass.:bassist:
