Another "guess the bass" thread

[Korladis]

So, my band Dustern went into the studio on saturday to record five songs. We finished all the drums, most of the bass (barring some corrections and overdubs), and about half the guitars (we're going to double most of them). Still need to do the keys and vocals.

Below, I have a soundcloud link to a rough first mix (no studio effects other than mild compression, no EQ).

The basses I had available were:
My heavily modified Peavey (originally a P-bass copy)
my 4003S
my Thunderbird
and my drummer's Bass VI


So, can you figure out which one(s) I used?

 

[Korladis]

Added a poll.

Answer will be revealed around 4:30 PM, PDT, on friday.

I'll reveal the answer on friday, btw.

Fantastic sound man! Really dig it. At first it seemed obvious, but idk if you're just using Ric or VI as well...then at times I think I hear a Thunderbird...

I voted Pbass w/ Bass VI overdub

 

[Korladis]

No more guesses?

 

[FretlessMainly]

Bass VI is my guess, but the openness of the harmony may be tricking my ear into choosing that.

Bass VI

Those of you who voted 4003S were correct.

Although we brought a Bass VI, we didn't end up using it for the initial tracks.

The intro is the bridge pickup of the 4003S with the tone capacitor engaged. Then I switch to the neck pickup. When it gets heavy, I switch back to the bridge pickup, this time with the capacitor disengaged.

I voted for the 4003S ... good tune also....

Thanks!



Still need to record keys, vocals, and some overdubs.

I'm excited to hear the end product.
