Some of the best bass covers on youtube, i was thinking about getting some of the new 2014 stock at Blakhart, is it worth the wait?

I was searching for Blakhart bass examples as I’m interested in their overall tone. The tone here is outstanding. It screams EMG and fresh strings, but I’m curious as to how much of that bright sound comes from the electronics, in your opinion.

but can u play the opening to running with the devil?

How do you make your bass sound like that? It has a very percussive tone.

Hey man, it's a simple plug in thru Guitar Rig (it should be called '80's slap bass' but it was a while ago, so I am not that sure anymore. No other gears / effects were used at that time. EQ is roughly 5 LOWS 6/7 MIDS 8 HIGHS. Lots of compression

I’m naive for saying this, but I don’t know how this gets a thumbs down. Did you click on the wrong link? I think the tone helps the play through stand out. Phenomenal musicianship very well done. Cheers!
