Don't You Want Me - Human League - Bass Cover

2 years ago

For years, I thought this song was about meeting a waitress in a "coat tail" bar, whatever that was. But it has one of the catchiest hooks from the 80's and a very danceable beat. The nice thing about being in a band with a male and female singer is that they can pair up on a song like this. Wouldn't be surprised if this ends up on the "Retrofection" setlist soon.

I'm using a modified 2021 Harley Benton PB-20 SBK Bass + Fender Rumble Stage 800 amp. DI out direct to GarageBand.

For effects, I added a "Sine Flanger" to get that synthy sound along with a "Rockin Peg" amp sim.

It is a shockingly inexpensive bass that I picked up as a modding platform. I purchased mine here and saved on shipping by buying 2 instruments at the same time: https://www.thomannmusic.com/harley_benton_pb_20_sbk_standard_series.htm
