Bass Player UK Magazine The Ultimate Bass Guide Édition spéciale

When we were assembling The Ultimate Bass Guide in our secret command bunker deep in the Arctic circle, we asked ourselves what bass players need to know. After several cases of whiskey we came to the conclusion that a combination of bass guitars, bass amps, bass effects, bass tuition and the odd bit of tone and double bass education – plus interviews with the greats of the bass world – would do the trick nicely. However, to make this guide truly indispensable, we’ve arranged each of the bass, amp and FX sections in ascending order by retail price, so each zone begins with affordable gear before climbing the fiscal cliff to the more expensive items. The result is a guide that’s tailored for every pocket, whether you’re looking for a decent bass under £500 (we’ve profiled 25 of them!), a reliable mid-market instrument or a breathtakingly luxurious instrument that will make your accountant weak at the knees. Have at it!
