  • Randy Tougas playing his HG Thor epoxied 2006 Fender USA "Jaco" sig bass. Tougas.mp3
      
    Tougas Jaco  "Fender Jazz bass bridge pickup on full--- neck pickup on about one and tone control set to about two or three (depending on the room) and strung with Rotosound 66 Swing Bass Strings 45-105. I use an Eden WT405 bass amp with the EQ set flat. My speakers include an Epifani UL-112 and an AccuGroove TRi112L. Because this bass is so expressive, tonal variances are achieved by right hand placement alone rather than messing with knobs, controls and various doodads.... Now how cool is that? This is the only bass I use on gigs whether it's rock, R&B, blues, or jazz."






  • Ibanez SR 500 fretted full HGT conversion played by Michael DeAngelo : excerpts from an arrangement of Portrait of Tracy: MDeangeloPOT.mp3

    "I usually keep the balance at 95% bridge pickup and 5% neck pickup. I have an active Bartolini 3-band EQ that I keep at 100% bass, 100% mid and 0% treble. The result is a mid-oriented sound that is warm and bassy. I use DR Sunbeam strings (.045-.100) with extremely low action. The bass was recorded direct into a Mac mini into GarageBand with no external preamps or interfaces. The drums were recorded in a studio using Pro Tools. The only thing added via software was reverb and a slight bit of compression that helps the harmonics speak out a little bit."
