After analyzing many articles, interviews, videos, I collected information about the technical secrets of Steve Harris.
- Very strong compression
- Heavy flat strings
- Low action
- Light touches
- Mids boost
This all leads to this - heavy strings give a response when touched lightly, this response is pulled out by strong compression. Low action gives the signature "clack", and flat strings do not rattle against the frets. In one interview, Nicko said that Steve tickles the strings, much like you tap on a table when you have nothing to do. Boosted mids aggressively push bass in front
What your favourite Iron Maiden bassline?

So I'm in an Iron Maiden tribute band and I'm modifying my player series P for a backup bass to my Harris signature. I've called Fender, WD Music, Pickguardian, etc. and haven't had luck finding the metal chrome mirror pickguard that comes on the Harris signature. Anyone know where I can find one?

I went through his filmography and made a list of every notable actor heβs ever appeared in a film or series with. Some are really obvious but included them just for the sake of being able to say we know itβs not them. Itβs also interesting to note that he hasnβt worked with many notable black actors, so if Blue Marvel is the engineer that could be the character/actor heβs referring to.

Probably not a popular opinion as he said Anette's voice suited the band.
