artisan Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 just got my new P bass yesterday & went straight round to my drummer friends studio for a jam with him & my brother. basically i just started jaming this here rhythm when Rhys,the drummer,said we should record it & see what developed,this is the result. bearing in mind this was a total jam i think it's pretty funky & i don't consider myself a funk player especially after 32 years of rock & blues. what to you guys think ? (be nice please) btw i'd been messing with my amp' & turned the input gain up much to far without realising but quite like to result.

mcnach Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 I like it, I like it!!! Nice sound from that P-bass. So I might end up liking P-basses after all, as long as they have a growl to them (and this one has it in in spades!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Rich Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Good stuff, the slide in the opening riff was starting to get a little repetitive but then you stopped doing it, so it's all good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ras52 Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Loving the tone - is that going through some compression and a bit of overdrive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoying Twit Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 I could hear some "get on up"s while listening to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artisan Posted February 9, 2011 Author Share Posted February 9, 2011 thanks for the kind comments guys mucho appreciated i must admit i like it myself,it's the first time i've heard a recording of myself & not though "that could have been a lot better if i'd only just ...... ) SUE f***ing RYDER ! how dare you as for the tone,i'd been mucking about with my amp & inadvertantly turned the input gain too high,i did consider stopping to adjust it but alas i'm far too fat & lazy to walk all the way over to my amp again. i thought it sounded crap when i was playing it but now i like it a lot---not too shure my rig does though. as for compression i just had my amp's on board at about 50% or so.
