Wotcher Posted March 15, 2014 Author Share Posted March 15, 2014 Lots of great examples here and some that venotbeen aware of so a good education, and of course terrific players. But it's the giveaway clickety click of the pick rather than just knowing they are pick users. Hence my Doors example at the start of the thread.

booboo Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 For the old school fender + flats + pick vibe try any 60's/70's Carol Kaye or Joe Osborn stuff. Probably not inspiring sounds solo'ed, but the way they sit in a mix is magical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deepbass5 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Oh and this one, I have the dots to this if anyone is interested This is so very much a pick number I have real difficulty as a finger player doing it justice, as the track relies on the pick up and pick down motion attacking the next string above and below in the fraises. Hats off to you pick guys. http://youtu.be/HxEhMoKohzQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No lust in Jazz Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 (edited) I've always liked the sound of plectrum with a Bass, the work of Andy West, Booby Vega and Scott Thunes has been an influence on my own playing. I've never quite understood why when a plectrum is used on a bass it is nearly exclusively used to showcase the the 'Punky Growl' of an amp etc.. for example see the Mesa Boogie Prodigy demo videos. There's so much more that can be done. Edited March 17, 2014 by No lust in Jazz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
