It gives me a very controlled sound out front in big arenas.
For the front-of-house live it's an ideal system for the front of house, because it's all DI. It gives me lots of flexibility when it comes to mix.įor live I use exactly the same setup but I'll go through some Trace Elliot amps and cabinets which I've been using the last couple of tours, for onstage monitoring. The Palmer gives me a low-end speaker sound and out of the Avalon I get a really deep and clear DI-sounding bass.

That signal then goes to Palmer speaker simulator and then goes to one of two different kinds of SansAmps that I use.
Presently I am using an Avalon U5 DI Box. Out of a need to develop something that I could use at home rather easily, I developed this system. I've been experimenting the last few years, using three different types of speaker simulators and not using any real live amp at all in terms of speakers or mic-ing speakers. Primarily, I use a Fender Jazz Bass '72 with a blonde neck and I've customized that just a little bit with a Bad-Ass bridge. Tell me about your bass-set-up these days. Recently, Guitar Center sat down with Lee to talk about his choice of gear, his technique and his first step outside of his Canadian power trio. Now, Lee wants to be taken seriously again. Not to mention his face gracing more covers than any other bass player, due in large part to his vanguard approach to playing, which has inspired many to take the instrument very seriously. For over thirty years, the prog-rocker from north of the border has been the voice of Rush. Anselmo and the Metal Masters, comprised of David Ellefson (Megadeth), Chris Broderick (Megadeth), Kerry King (Slayer), Dave Lombardo (Slayer), Charlie Benante (Anthrax), Frank Bello (Anthrax) and Mike Portnoy (Adrenaline Mob/Flying Colors), blazed through “Mouth For War,” “A New Level,” “Walk,” “Hostile,” and “This Love.” Geezer Butler, of the legendary Black Sabbath, joined all of the Metal Masters on stage for a finale rendition of “Hole In The Sky.”įor more information, visit our Metal Masters 4 Guitar Center Meet & Greet Events webpage.Geddy Lee has never been afraid of a challenge. The highlight of the event came when vocalist, and now returning Metal Master, Philip Anselmo jumped onstage to perform Slayer fan-favorites “Angel Of Death” and “Raining Blood” before launching into five songs from the classic Pantera album Vulgar Display Of Power. Metal Masters 3, which took place at the Key Club in Los Angeles, featured the Metal Masters demonstrating their personal techniques and styles used to create the music that millions bang their heads to every day. If the still circulating buzz from Metal Masters 3 is any indication, Metal Masters 4 will not disappoint anyone who is lucky enough to see it. Even though the show is sold out, the clinic will be broadcast live via UStream and the link will be sent out in the coming weeks so fans around the globe can experience Metal Masters 4.
