SteveXFR Posted yesterday at 08:07 Posted yesterday at 08:07 Is anyone here using a Motorbass overdrive? Ive checked out some reviews online and it sounds amazing but online review videos often add in all sorts of plugins to the signal chain. Does it really get you to that Lemmy style distortion? Quote
Gareth Hughes Posted 5 hours ago Posted 5 hours ago I haven’t tried one, but both the Tech21 SH1 Steve Harris and the English Muffy have a great Lemmy tone lurking inside. Quote

If you have a Jazz Bass, no. If you have a P-Bass, it's in between. If you have some high output pickups, it's not that fantastic... Active basses through it sound a bit meh. Quote

Reverse P bridge pickup at the neck with J in the bridge Quote
