If you ask me it's definitely going to be a combination things depending on the bass player and performance; I think it would be tough to come up with an iron-clad recipe because there's lots of different flavors of growl. In this case it's a Versatone bass amp, semi-hollow body Guild/Alembic bass and percussive technique combined. Pretty lousy recording, but it's a nicely isolated example of growl.
