I swear that this thread exists in the "General Discussion" forum. If I come across it, I'll post a link.As for this thread, I personally am a really big fan of the Jeff/John bass tone from the sessions for the album Anodyne.I have a feeling that it's Jeff's Precision. That Paulson recorded it doesn't hurt, either. For a record that was tracked live, it sounds amazing from top to bottom.

Come to think of it, Alex's bass sound in Grand Champeen. Not always as "Straight Forward" as the sound I just mentioned, but that's what I think makes it great.

As for "I Just Crank The Volume Knob..." sounds, this one is evergreen. There is never a time where it does not get turned up.Ditto for this one...
