Cant get the sound I want...

Personally I think it would be more helpful to say "I want to sound like the bass sound in THIS song" rather than a broad generalization of a certain sound from a particular brand.

Sometimes things just aren't what we think they are. There was a quote from a forum the other day: Jimmy Page defined the classic "Les Paul through a Marshall" sound....using a Telecaster through a Supro amp.
