| Post subject: | the Burton scream. |
I'm trying to recreate cliff burtons distorted bass wah sound. now, I was always under the impression (based on my guitar playing experience) that it was the result of putting a distortion pedal (or using the f\x loops on a guitar amp) before the wah pedal. thus the wah which acts like a notch filter notches up a bunch of distorted square waves giving it that screaming sound. I'm currently trying this but to no avail. the sound I'm getting is more the Jason newstead blouch sound. I would also note that all of this is done on a righty slammer bass with a tone knob+vol knobs. any thoughts? newstead: cue to about 5:00 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSpz70OOxYs butron: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_wGFfrJv4Y |

I always thought Cliff Burton used an old Morley Power Wah Fuzz, a wah with a built-in fuzz. They're capable of incredible amounts of noise. |

thanks for the input. I tried putting before the amp and is sounds a bit more a screamish. |
