S/D Basstits part 42: Mostly harmless - Page 5

Ron Now · #81 01-08-2013, 09:33 AM

I was thinking that might be the case with the powered speaker. I know about the new GK line and it would be ideal, but they adamently state that they "only" work with other GK MB Combos, although I don't see why that would be the case.

I don't really want to pick up another small/powerful combo though since I wouldn't really be using the preamp of the combo (in favor of the verellen pre) but it's seeming like that is going to be the route to go (if I don't want to drop $$$ on an IP Berg).

Thanks for the help duders.

+1. Plus, don't you have to make a certain amount before you become liable? I worked at a place for one day. Earned like $100 and never got a W2 from them...

Cool, thanks my friend. It's really comfy to play right now, and i did numerous test's through all of my pedals last night and even recorded it so I could listen back and the fret noise is not coming through. And yeah its definitely going to take some getting used to, this .150 low string has no give at all its like fretting a solid cable, but the sustain and low end increase over the .125 is worth it.

Probably, but it would cost him more than what he will have to pay the IRS for your earnings.

I have been liking my .145 on my b string. You should also look into CircleK strings for their matched tension sets.

Depends if he's got a bigger gun than you

That's what I'm using Circle K .65-.150 4 string set.

Why are people so quick to call other people Hitler? Really.

I haven't seen any world leaders systematically destroy millions of people since... well, Hitler. So until someone is of equal status, no one else can be Hitler. (especially not a certain black man that is in charge of the Free World as we know it. If he was Hitler, the A-bomb would have already been dropped)

Rant over... interwebz make me mad sometimes...

ampegfuzz · #91 01-08-2013, 10:18 AM

I don't know about A-bombs but I sure do like to drop a whole hell of a lot of F-bombs!

Hooooooooooooo! Look out! Don't forget to try the prime rib.

I think it's over $700 you have to report.

I don't know what the amount is or if the new tax codes change anything for that. I haven't had to do a 1099 in a looooooooong time.

So I picked up up Doomriders Darkness Come to Light at the thrift store the other day for 2 bucks. I was only vaguely familiar with the name. Holy balls, what a great album. Guess it's a couple of guys from Coverge. Sounds like post-hardcore/noise band playing classic metal. Good ****.

It's Nate the bassplayer from Converge's band, he plays guitar and sings if i remember correctly. It's definitely good stuff.

I'll check it out, thanks!

I'm pretty pumped about this ****. Best $2.00 cd I bought in a long time.

Lazarus.Bird · #99 01-08-2013, 11:21 AM

I've got two of the Doomriders albums on vinyl. Scored em on eBay for like $6 a piece.

Also apparently because the album leaked, instead of an April release Gozu just released their new album on iTunes. I don't use iTunes so I haven't heard it yet.
