The Damned's "Neat Neat Neat" by my band - mix from live multitrack.

Listened to the most recent mix. Good tune. One anomaly: the bass is really present in the opening, tends to get masked when the guitars kick in, and pretty much disappears in the chorus. Fixable?

Hi, dobro. What is happening is a known issue with the bass guitar itself - it needs a tweak on the setup. The action is too low and the G and D strings are choking when Dave the bassplayer plays those higher register notes under the chorus. I keep meaning to sort it at every gig and practice, then forget, lol. Ten seconds with an Allen key. :facepalm:
