i think herbie flower's/walk on the wildside and all the basslines (richard davis) on van morrison astral weeks are some of the best bass tone ever. almost every bass line i love is on an acoustic upright bass. i realize a lot of that is the player, but the instrument itself sounds real organic and nice. is there any way to at least somewhat simulate those tones on an electric bass? i was thinking flat wounds, tone knob rolled off, and maybe incorporate subtle bends/slides? what about eq? i have a good quality p-bass.
