Let’s talk about the special place bass has in music, and in your heart and memories.
What’s your favourite bass model, and why? This isn’t necessarily about price (although if that’s your thing, go ahead).
It can be a bass guitar, an upright bass, a synth, or any instrument that creates deep sounds.
What attracts you to it?
You don’t have to be a bass player 
You can mention artists, songs with great basslines, and anything else that captures that magic.
For a non Bass player I seem to have three. A Fender Precision, an Epiphone Jack Casady and a Squier Bass VI.
The Precision is really the industry standard, sits well in the mix because it’s more mid-range than pure bottom end, the Jack Casady does that semi-hollow ‘thump’ (particularly with flat wounds on) and the Bass VI does gloomy Eighties Cure/New Order brilliantly, even moreso when using a bit of chorus.
Norman Watt-Roy, totally underrated!
My favorite electric bass sound is the Gibson EB-3, preferrably with flatwound strings through an overdriven amp. Necessarily an original 60’s EB-3 because the pickups in the modern ones are wired differently. It’s just the fattest sound there is. It’s not for everyone, it doesn’t work for everything, but damn if it isn’t an all enveloping sound.
I have others I love, but this is the one I love the most.
And responsible for this monster bassline too
Forget about whole bass lines… it just took the 1st two notes of bass on this to change my life
Superb
