Hi, I want to get Adam Clayton's bass sound.
Why, you may ask? Because it's great, and I know he's not Bootsy Collins but I don't care.
He has a warm , ballsy, creamy sound. Take for example "Wit or Without you" bass line. Very simple notes. But I think what it makes it work is the feeling given to it by the bass tone. It has a rumble, an "mmmmmphh" quality, and the way the notes blend together, speacially you can tell when he changes the root.
Ah, and of course, how can you get that sustain?
Any tips or advice? The more player's technique oriented the better (I mean, buy an Auralex Resonator in Your Face 760 is good, but the simpler the better).
Cheers guys, and a good life for all.
