Jesus has life been intruding in my posting.

Anyway, f this winter for forcing us to cancel last weekend. Stupid snow.


We're playing with a few awesome bands Friday (Transient, Prefect and Faces of Bayon). And then at the end of the month it's the big show with Gozu and Lord Fowl (and Orange Diesel and Second Grave).

If no one has heard Second Grave, here: https://www.facebook.com/secondgraveband?ref=ts&fref=ts

Female fronted doom metal. Good stuff.

The River is the one we've been rewriting, it falls apart at the end, still working on it.

And here's the rest of our stuff, again private so save the link to listen to it whenever...

These links aren't doing anything for me. Should have got them last night when I was downstairs.

Gozu and Lord Fowl sounds like an awesome show, man.

Anyone ever hear of an Ampeg V7? http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/msg/3518608482.html

I know that it's a guitar head from the early 80's, made in Japan. Their SS guitar heads sound pretty nice, so I would imagine that this one sounds pretty good. If I had the cash I'd go for it.

Like they dont work? Or you dont like them?

[JoeVictim]

So, I'm sitting here listening to this song as I am working. I keep thinking damn, this is heavy. It ends up being "Reefer Sutherland" - Bongripper. Damn Ron, nice bass work son!

Giving another try now.

Haha, thanks much appreciated.

[mc_muench]

Does it work for others? Maybe the links dont like you. They are very judgmental links, theyll hate you just because they can.

The lowest I've had my guitars tuned is Drop A, but I'm very familiar with string gauges and tunings. I've spent a lot of times on Circle K using the tension guide/calculator. I used to e-mail Skip rather frequently.

I think I'm going to go with the Warmoth neck, which I just realized is 28 5/8" scale.

Originally I was thinking of doing this with a tele, but I think a Les Paul would be tempting as well. I'd like to have an LP tuned low for some nice sludge.

Cool man! I've been down the same road so just putting it out there if ya needed any help. I've been pondering a baritone tele but they just don't look right on me, and I'm so used to the Bari Jag (which is in Drop G w/ .14-.68's) now that I'm just keeping an eye out for another one of those as a back up.

I've been wanting one.

I've been looking at Rondo's extended scale LP's for a while now but each one has some little detail that bugs the sh!t outta me. Like the 3010 you linked to has dot inlay's but correct pickup positioning, the 2000 627 has no inlays which looks amazing, but the bridge pickup is in the standard scale position while the bridge is moved back.... Just can't win but I'd probably go with the 200$ al-2000 627 flatblack and deal with the pickup position.

Are you following me on soundcloud? If not do that then try these links, maybe they wont hate you.

Was casually shopping at the super market yesterday while listening to the roadburn set and on my way home Hate Ashbury came up. Mind you it was the first time I listened to it through headphones and damn, the tone you get during the quiet part(~7mins in) is just tits What an experience it must be to have such an awesome backline to choose from eh?

Btw, is that like your clean tone? Or you had something on?

Thanks! Hate Ashbury was from the saturday set so I was using an Ashdown ABM500 with an Ampeg 810. Honestly if it wasn't for the super awesome monitoring system they had there I could not hear the amp at all (quiet 500 watts IMO).

The "clean" tone is actually the Neck pickup with the volume rolled down some on my RD Artist through my Rat. I never turn off my gain pedals so that is as clean as I get in Bongripper anymore. I just use the different pickups and volume controls to change the tone. (At roadburn I used a bass modded big box rat, now I'm using a fuzzrocious demon king, with even better results).

I was really proud of how that turned out, in tone and performance. That is one of the parts we "jam" on so all the fills and such were just played on the spot...luckily they sounded good/in key haha.

Yeah that's going to be terrific.

[JoeVictim]

Have I mentioned how my guitar player doesn't really communicate? So he tells us his wife is due mid feb. We plan a feb 1st show. Turns out his wife is due on that day now... we might be a two piece for our next show. Kinda cool, kinda not.

[ampegfuzz]

Borrow his rig and pump bass thru it. Do it up right
