Features and functionality

0 0

The Selmer Futurama Major Bassist is praised for its clean sounds and distinctive trutone EQ buttons, which can produce tones reminiscent of The Animals.
Source

Comparisons

0 0

The Futurama Major Bassist is likened to the Selmer Zodiac for its sound quality, though the Zodiac is noted for having a unique blinking eye tremolo.
Source

Mods and upgrades

0 0

Owners often miss the onboard reverb found in other amps like the Fender Twin Reverb, suggesting a reverb pedal as a necessary addition for similar functionality.
Source

Use cases and applications

0 0

The amp pairs well with low-output pickups for clean tones, but can be driven nicely with higher-output pickups, such as Dynasonics in a Gretsch.

Other

0 0

The Selmer brand, while historically associated with brass instruments, also produced amps through Selmer UK, distinct from their Paris division.

Jamie Cook

Guitarist

Arctic Monkeys

Verified via YouTube

Jamie Cook uses a vintage Selmer Futurama Bassist Major during the recording of the bands second album, “Favourite Worst Nightmare,” as seen in the “Teddy Picker” music video which shows footage of the band recording this song as well as the set up for the rest of the recording sessions. The amp can be seen at 00:22 seconds into the video, next to Jamie’s Hiwatt stack.

Around the time of Arctic Monkeys second album, the band acquired multiple vintage Selmer amplifiers. Alex started to play a Zodiac Twin 30, which became his main amp for each album following, and a Solid State 30, Jamie played through this Futurama series amp.

The amp can also be seen in the bands music video for their song “Four Out of Five” off of their 6th album titled “Tranquility Base Hotel And Casino.” The amp has not been seen used live by the band, as Jamie uses his Hiwatt Studio/Stage 2x12 and his BadCat during the bands second tour.
