How to get this specific bass sound - help please

[Grooverjr]

There's a really lovely roundedness and fullness to the bass sound on this track and I have no idea how to go about getting it. I assume there's compression involved but what else is there? I have a Roland VB99 so I should be able to recreate most things but I don't have mush experience with how different noise makers work.

So, over to the BC collective genius to hopefully help me out. 

It's a great bassline as well, simple but really effective.

To my ears, That sounds like a P-bass (or neck pickup at least?)

Roundwound strings

A healthy dose of Compression 

And I think I detect a pinch of Pitch modulation i.e Flanging or Chorus just to give it all a bit of ‘3D’ shimmer?
 

That should get you in the ballpark…

Thanks. I was wondering if there was a bit of chorus or similar in there. I'll have a fiddle around and see what I can do. It's such a lovely, plummy sound, kind of ballooning out and back again.
