Well, no; because the sim was run with no transformer.

Three C-R coupling networks, plus Gain, makes a Phase Shift Oscillator. Here the C-Rs are staggered, and the gain is not large, so it won't-quite oscillate. But it thumps (average DC level bobbles) badly when signal starts abruptly. Which is rather standard in plucled/picked bass playing. So it needs study.
