Bass Guitars used by Beefcake The Mighty on America Must Be Destroyed

Electric Basses

Steinberger XM-2 Headless Bass

Yes, it was a Steinberger XM2, and its just running through an old SVT that had been modified with a master volume, run through an 8X10, at least that hos "Scumdogs" and "America" were recorded, later, I used a Seymour Duncan 800 RB with the effect pedal, on the Toilet Earth, for example, but by the constant was a PULTECH EQ, and LA2A compression, that's the deal. I used to use a FAT CAT distortion by Ibanez live, and yes, I used to use differnt gear live then in the studio because the fluids would **** it up.

Beefcake The Mighty, bassist for GWAR, used an Ampeg SVT-CL Classic amplifier head, modified with a master volume, during the recording of "Scumdogs of the Universe" and "America Must Be Destroyed." The setup included running the SVT-CL through an 8x10 cabinet. In live performances, Beefcake often opted for different gear due to the effects of stage fluids, including using a FAT CAT distortion pedal by Ibanez.
