Jigster Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 (edited) Any thoughts what the guy is using for his sound - it feels pretty clean to me, which is what I like most, but also that tone, feels compressed, understated, resonant but not pushed? Perhaps it's just the lovely interaction of the valves from his Marshall stack? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zDgE6Ttf-c Edited October 6, 2014 by icastle Link Fixed.

Geek99 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 When I saw him on jools he was using a 51 P style bass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scalpy Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Great call, I always forget what a great band Doves are. Good video too, just what I needed after a thrash of a day. No idea about his bass sound, I'm afraid, more interested in how he sings like that, great voice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Dyer Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 His debut solo album came out this week, well worth checking out if you're a Doves fan. 'Odludek' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevB Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Wonder if stringing it arse backwards actually contributes to the tone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 (edited) Had the pleasure of seeing Mr. Goodwin last night at the Thekla in Bristol, my friend plays guitar in his band. Great gig, cracking songs and the band was good, drummer Bo Walsh, in particular was steaming. Jimi took time to have a chat afterwards, lovely humble bloke, very nice to my wife... He was using a precision into an SVT CL . On his pedal board was a Wampler Ego compressor which I think was on most of the time, BOSS LMB-3, EHX Bass Big Muff.

I wanted to get a look at his pedalboard when I saw him but didn't get the chance. Loved the fuzz tone he gets. He used to use a BOSS ODB3 so interesting to hear he's using the Big Muff now Edited October 3, 2014 by CliveT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Looks to be strung normally - just played arse backwards with the E at the bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
