Hi Kev, Is the Red Llama clone still available, can you post / pm a pic ? I'm looking for a OD for my bass at the moment (to many heavy distortion and fuzz pedals). -

Cheers Tony, thinking of spending the day on the web to help waer ogff my hangover, then I might play a bit of bass later on. -
First post here - so plenty of opinions to share !!
When I've played Muse songs in the past I've found a Woolly Mammoth and an EQ pedal gets me a decent 'live' sound. Plus a trouch of compression really brings out that big Muse bass sound. I find a Fuzz Face type fuzz more accurate than a big muff type fuzz for the bass parts.
I'm guessing the OP is wanting to recreate a Muse sound form playing live with band so I'd look at distortion / fuzz, EQ and compression.
On the recorded albums there is no doubt all sorts of studio trickery going on, a mix of distorted / fuzzed tracks, a clean track and a synth track, plus plenty of EQing and other studio shenanigans.
I read an interview with Matt Bellamy recently where he says a lot of the guitar parts are a mix of distorted guitars and distorted synths. -
First post here, and first post on this page on 2009. And Happ new year All !!
Been playing bass for years and reading this forum quiet a bit, thought it's tiem to sign up.
Currently playing a jazz bass through various fuzz pedals, no amp at the moment (sold it a while ago as I'm not gigging at present and using a Line6 Bass POD for home usage. Quite like using delays and loopers on bass too.
Dan.

I thought thet was probably the best song of the show. I was really impressed with how it sounded compered with the synthy studio version which I'm not a bif fan of either.
