Thanks for the reply. Since it's the only one I have got since posting my clip with Bass guitar, I am assuming my bass playing/recording/mixing is not that flash.
Cab is Mesa Traditional Rectifier straight. Mic is against cloth dead-centre of dustcap. Might be a little distant because I have been eq'ing the crap out of the bottom end. I am getting heaps of bass in my recordings (cab is on the floor, maybe should put the castors back on it) so have been cutting heaps of bass out.
Last night I recorded four more sets of quad-tracks (Gain on 5 as suggested by KillDivision) with different mic positions, edge of dustcap slightly off-axis, edge of dustcap on axis, between centre of dustcap and edge on axis and another guitar C-tuned in the last position. I am getting heaps of mids from the 808 now and am having such a hard time getting anything to sound halfway listenable. Tearing my hair out now.

I am looking at an old post from Andy where he has the mic pointed slightly off axis at the edge of the dustcap and that's where I got the idea. Otherwise I am out of ideas, again.
Anyway, sorry for ranting.![Lol :lol: :lol:](/data/assets/smilies/lol.gif)
