Pookus Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Man these are fat! Fat and fat tone. Using them on my EB0 with flatwounds. Sounds like the bass you get in 60s European art movie soundtracks. Which is thuddy. And fat. I never thought I could get so much joy from a small piece of felt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read somewhere Macca used them on Sgt Pepper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidbass Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 A friend of mine in America sent me a packet of these a few years ago - I recall them having exactly that sound they describe - a 'thump' for sure! I didn't have much use for them though unfortunately as my plectrum skills were never that hot, and I always resorted back to fingerstyle. Might dig 'em out though as I'm sure they're still lurking around my closet somewhere! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pookus Posted March 19, 2010 Author Share Posted March 19, 2010 Yeah they are great for that muted pick vibe. Play the theme tune from Bullitt!
