Nice @Paul_9207… Great playing!! Love your style! I do have to agree with @John_E in that the mix was a bit on the muddy side… Also looked as if there may have been a splice at the 2:00 minute mark. Not too awful obvious, but enough to grab my attention… Looks like you’re mic’d to your Ampeg??
Keep on Thumpin’!

Thank you!
Yes, there are two long segments without any bass, so I just cut them out.
Yes. Bass - Zoom B6 - Ampeg - MXL V250 mic - Focusrite - Garage band
Just got around to listening to this one @BigAl…. Very nicely done!
. Great timing with a nice tome in the mix. Great job with the video also!!
Sorry to hear about your dad…. Stay strong man!!
Keep on Thumpin’!

I decided to go back to the 50 song challenge songs and challeng myself…
The challange:
Try to learn one song and record it all in a single day.
Never did that before. Not the hardest of songs for sure, but fun.
I did not like the original bassline tone at all, so decided to play a bit.
Both pickups in use, little bass boost, little treble cut, little VT Bass DI SVT on top.
Current strings on the MM are Rotosound 45 RB45s, nice clang which I tried to tame a bit for the tune but peeks through a bit too.
I also tried a fret wrap for the first time, just to get rid of some of the upper ‘zing’. It does work for just that.
Great job on this @John_E ! I like the tone you came up with a lot. The original has some kind of octave + synthetic fart thing going on that doesn’t really do it for me either 
So here is my Gorillaz cover, it’s a fun song to play, and also lets you squeeze in coffee breaks between parts. Annoyed with the tuning though, it’s somewhere between Eb and D, did my best to match it by ear.

Best coffee break prize.
Great job as always man!
Yeah, it’s not standard tuning, down a half step
I should add that rather than tuning my bass down a half step, I play the Eb on the A string then just use the shape. Sounds really good there too.
That’s a good idea, definitely sounds good up an octave. My issue with the tuning was that to my ear, the bass in original was playing flatter than Eb, between the Eb and D. Not a full quarter step, but close. The consensus on the internet is that it’s plain old Eb so this is probably just in my head
I think so. I didn’t have this issue.
Yeah, in my head, your cover sounded great
Another fun one. Also my first foray into playing with reverb! Hope I wasn’t too heavy-handed with it but I think it sounds pretty cool in context.
