Robert Levon Been

In this photo, Robert Levon Been can be seen playing an Epiphone Rivoli bass.

One of my favorite tones on the album is the synth-y bass on “King of Bones.” How did you get that tone and how did that song come to be? Been: The Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail pedal had a lot to do with the sound on that one. Once the riff came to me, I realized I was kind of in Bauhaus/Tones on Tail/Love and Rockets territory, and I really like that, and it’s been a really long time since we’ve done anything in that world.

I really like fucking around with just regular old Boss EQ pedals. People underestimate what those pedals can do when it comes to carving out tones on the fly when you’re playing, but also the extra little bit of drive you can get from one of those

On the official Epiphone website, there is this photo of Robert Levon Been using an Epiphone Jack Casady bass.

I mainly use pedals made by Dave Archer under the name Vintage FX: the Colordrive and VFX Overdrive. I also use the Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail and different delays like the Akai Headrush for looping stuff?

During the whole video, you can see Robert playing a Fender Bass Precision.

Robert, what amps did you use for the bass tracks on Wrong Creatures? Been: We used one of the SVT 8x10 cabs and an SVT 2PRO
