Gotta love a status bass might be bested by a Spector it's a close close call man

[@TheAlStewartArchives]

Superb! Good to see you have the skills to go with that high end bass! Also had no idea Paul Westwood (well known among bass fans) was the bassist on this so you've taught me something new today! Subscribed and look forward to more from you. - David

Woow! I thought Mark King recorded the slap parts!! Sounded like him! However, great cover man!!

Thanks!

[@andy-tm4xr]

What rig do you play through fella? Loving the status growl with the high end pop too such a versatile instrument does anything you ask.

[@iv4nbass]

I used to play through a Markbass little mark 3 and a traveller 1x12 with a tweeter, I recently got my hands on a trace Elliot ah500 and have 2 4x10s to match it

[@80ssynthfan48]

Brilliant. Loved every second of it. Do you think you might be doing other Nik Kershaw stuff? e.g. Know How?

[@iv4nbass]

Yeah I reckon I’ll look into some more NK

[@carlkermode899]

Great cover. What effects did you use?

[@iv4nbass]

Thanks! Most of the song I didn’t use anything except for the fill in the middle where I added a lot of reverb to get as close as possible to the original

[@carlkermode899]

@@iv4nbass No kidding? I thought you had something running for the whole song. Great tone.

[@iv4nbass]

@@carlkermode899 no kidding, all straight from the pickups, they are an amazing set and produce super high quality tones

Nice professional style!

Hmmmm, you play music from my youth .... interesting ....?... :).

[@WildWildWeasel]

This song was made in the cold war era, but it fits the climate of 2023 eerily well 😅
