I'm always looking for a thread to post this stuff, so figured I'd make one.

Here's two most recent to start this off.

DISTANT BLOOD - s(re)pent // Raw Melodic Heavy Metal Fretless Bass Cover

My interpretation of 's(re)pent' by DISTANT BLOOD. This is how I personally like to play this song, this is not an accurate playthrough of the original bass line. My tuning from low to high is ECEADG on a fretless 6-string Legator bass guitar.

Ceraphym - Revolutionary Dignity

I recently took the time to cover this very cool instrumental in my own style. This is in no way meant to be instructional nor a play along or note by note cover, this is my interpretation of the song done completely by ear. I played this song in drop EA (EAEADG) or one octave below a standard bass guitar.

The following is the gear list for the above covers.

Gear used:
Bass: Legator NB6FP (Defretted) w/ Darkglass Tone Capsule on board pre-amp.
Strings: Newtone Diamond (.042, .056, .073, .098, .142, .176)
Signal path:
TC Electronic Sentry (Noise Gate).
Darkglass Hyper Luminal (Compressor).
MXR bass d.i. + ( D.I., Distorion, Pre-amp, Noise Gate)
Darkglass Microtubes Infinity (Tuner, Multi-band Distortion, Pre-amp, Compressor, HPF, LPF, Cab Sim, Noise Gate)
Interface: PreSonus Audiobox USB96
Cables - Roland/MXR

Signal utilized parallel processing.
