You

You could track the bass yourself... but when tone, pocket and feel really matter, it is time to call in someone who lives and breathes the low end.I record clean DI takes with pro-level gear, ready to re-amp or get experimental with pedals. Whether it is warm and vintage to tight and modern or weird and wonderful, I dial in the tone your track actually needs.Artists I work with get more than a bass line. They get energy, glue and momentum in their song.Stop EQ’ing the guesswork. Send it to someone obsessed with getting it right!


Bass Options

Dingwall Super P-1 (5-String) – Modern clarity, tight low B; ideal for pop, rock, metal, theatre
Fender Jazz Deluxe V (5-String) – Versatile and punchy; great for funk, rock, fusion
Fender Precision (flatwound strings) – Classic, thumpy tone; perfect for soul, R&B, indie
Lakland 55-01 Fretless (5-String) – Smooth and expressive; adds warmth and lyrical phrasing
Epiphone Allen Woody Rumblekat – Short-scale with rich mids; great for retro tones, lo-fi or rootsy projects

Aguilar Tone Hammer 500 Bass Amp Head
Adds warmth, midrange presence and punch. Perfect for rock, soul or anything that needs an amp in a recorded environment
