Great job on both covers gentlemen, @Mac, @TNKA36! The Australian contingent is really kicking arse. Also, I tend to agree with @howard that I think it’s a phasing issue. I’ve heard something similar on a couple of practice recordings when I had the original bass line up to loud.

Nice playing. It’s a long time since I’ve heard that song.

Hi @terb, Laurent,
Yes I have crossed over to the foam side😎
I have been practicing a few songs with it, loving the tone 
Cheers Brian

Thanks Lester, @LesterH,
Hope everything has settled down over your way👍
The foam gives a really nice muffled tone that I’ve tried on a few songs.
Cheers Brian

Happy Friday everyone!
I’ve been working my way through the “Soul Fingers” book on Duck Dunn, and came across this groovy bassline from a Wilson Pickett tune and was inspired to record a cover.
I was born-n-raised in Memphis, and love the old Stax sound. Duck’s playing is what originally inspired me to pick up the bass, and diving into his catalog has kept me happy and motivated. Highly recommend!
Here is my cover of Wilson Pickett’s “Ninety-Nine And A Half (Won’t Do)”
Recorded on a Fender P-bass w/ flatwounds and tone/treble turned aaaall the way down, just like it was meant to be

that’s an excellent cover @bjams ! not at all my kind of music, but I could not resist shaking my head, following your groove. I listened to it 4 times in a row.
also as far as I can tell now (big problem with my monitors) your bass tone fits really perfectly with the record tone (which is not very good but that’s not the purpose 
). also nice mix.
excellent cover, I say.

Here’s my latest offering 
Winds of Change by German rockers The Scorpions is a big favourite of mine which I have been fortunate to see live a good few times. The best I think was at The Esplanade in St Kilda .
My version was played on the Ibanez Mikro string with flats and via the iRig/ iPad set up which isn’t the best.
I reckon I’ve a couple of timing issues and recorded a little on the quiet side but please see if you hear any other problems. Once again this was a “balls against the wall” one attempt effort
