On your jazz, roll off the neck pickup a little.

What is your amp? The Mudvayne bassist uses an Ampeg tube head into an Ampeg 8x10 cab. 8)

He also uses stainless steel strings. Those can have a much different tone than nickels.

Here's a cool growly jazz bass tone; sounds like it was played with a pick to me, or maybe Geddy Lee style.

i was wondering how i should set my EQ for my amp and my guitar for the heaviest, growliest sound? i want something like the bassist from Mudvayne or the bassist from From first to last (their latest album anyway)

both of these guys have this aggresive sound that i love

any tips?]]> Bass Players Discussion slaphappy https://guitarnoise.forum/bass-players-discussion/growly-tone/#post-35545
