When I try to dial in this type of aggro tone on my jazz bass with a Tech21 YYZ pedal most of what I get is just ear-piercing fret clack and it's just not...pleasant. I can see you're absolutely wailing on the strings just like Geddy, and I'm trying to emulate that. Is it a technique thing that I'm missing? Or is there some EQ I'm missing out on?
@hemibass
@hemibass Ай бұрын
Without seeing/hearing your sound I can't really say. I definitely have a lot of treble on my sound, but I turn it down if the fret slap is too loud. Distortion also helps make that sound a bit nicer too. Glad you like my sound though, thanks

Excellent I would say. I guess you mean with Flamenco using a down stroke and up stroke with one finger at go. I like the energetic playing, which is certainly called for in Yes bass parts, but few can deliver. I don't miss the pick in this sound at all. I must say I was completely stunned by the playing of Geddy Lee getting so in the same pocket as Squire using a jazz bass and a different technique. Anyway: we all love the thunderous sound of Chris Squire.
