Mike Dean

In the article "Corrosion Of Conformity's Mike Dean: “It’s all in the hands and in your dedication and connection to the creativity of the universe”" by Ian Glasper on Musicradar.com, Mike Dean tells that he used to have a 1978 Fender P-Bass, which got stolen on Christmas Eve 1993:

I have some Sadowsky Jazz copies that are very comfortable, but sometimes you need a Precision or Precision-derived bass to really get the low end across. My 1978 Fender P-Bass got stolen on Christmas Eve 1993, and that was the ultimate; I really need to replace that.

In the article "Corrosion Of Conformity's Mike Dean: “It’s all in the hands and in your dedication and connection to the creativity of the universe”" by Ian Glasper on Musicradar.com, Mike Dean tells that he uses the 1990s Mesa 400+ amplifier head:

I like a couple of Ampeg SVT heads through a splitter, but not the new ones; they don’t come close in terms of sonic possibilities or reliability. I have a 1990s Mesa 400+ that sounds good through some SVT 8x10 cabs, or through the ancient Boogie 2x15 cabinets I had. A newer Fender Super Bassman 300 or Sunn 300T is also good. Orange AD200s will do in a pinch, and their cabinets, especially the 8x10s, are great.

In the article "Corrosion Of Conformity's Mike Dean: “It’s all in the hands and in your dedication and connection to the creativity of the universe”" by Ian Glasper on Musicradar.com, when asked about effects pedals, Mike Dean confirms that he uses Black Arts Tone Works Revelation pedal:

I don’t really use pedals; well, maybe on the recordings sometimes, when a bit of distortion is required. Most of the time that’s just the amp wide open, or lately, a Black Arts Tone Works Revelation pedal… just a touch of that mixed in. I regard it as a condiment and not a food group.
