Stoner/Doom Bassist Thread Part 7 - The Elite 8 vs. The New Guys

[Lazarus.Bird]

All I did was ask a couple questions and the guy was really rude so not sure I want to even buy it now. He said it hasn't been played since 1994 either so that was interesting. I asked him for some pics of the sides and back and he snapped at me and told me to just drive over and look at it if I was interested.

Geez laz....youre such an ass....how could you ask questions? everyone knows that $175 does NOT add up to the right to ask questions... Ya gotta spend five bills for that. ;-)

I bit my tongue thankfully. Haven't answered him yet so I can keep it civil.

Hey dudes been down in Chicago the last week visiting family and friends, I had no internet so I'm a week behind, any new stuff going on? Oh and I was at the studio with the Nachtmystium dudes hanging if anyone likes black metal and the new album they are recording sounds pretty good. Hung out with my buddy from Lord Mantis and they have a new cd coming out next week which is freakin awesome!! (I have a unmastered copy from when they recorded it) I highly suggest it

[Mr. Foxen]

Its a Barefaced Super 15, I was gonna get the dubster but the standalone option of the Super 15 won out. The Ashdown cab is a fairly standard guitar cab, although top end quality. Heads are a Burman Pro4000 and a Burman Pro 502 head version (usually q combo). Both have had some upgrades in the power supply.

Thinking about giving this guy a call to check out his stuff

You know Nachtmystium??!!!!

Yep the drummer is one of my best friends. I always go hang out with them when I'm in Chi town. I jam with the drummer a bit and have played with him and the lead guitar player too. Really cool guys

[Lazarus.Bird]

Check out my friend's band. She's the drummer. Awesome stuff. Band's name is Vulture from Pittsburgh: This Beautiful Infection by Vulture

I think a lot of you guys will really dig this.

The Barefaced Super Fifteen seems pretty awesome but seems like it would be expensive to get one over in the US.

If the overseas price list in their website is still accurate, it looks like it's about +45 bucks what it cost shipped to the US comparing it to its price in EUR.

Too rich for my blood

[Lazarus.Bird]

The cabs look nice but I couldn't shell out that kind of money for a cab I've never heard before delivered from another country =P

I also do not like how the cab is skinny (too skinny for a tube amp to sit on top of) because they said no one uses their cabs with tube amps any more.

I had one of those cabs a long time ago. I bought it with 2 dead speakers for like $50 and put in some new ones, ended up blowing those too. It looked pretty awesome, just beat up an old. I wouldn't call it a "good" cab. But for $175 what would you really expect? If the things holds together and has two good 15's in there it should make a lot of noise.

The one thing is that the cab itself is really tall and wide but not very deep so you definitely need a truck or van to transport it as a backseat or trunk will definitely not work.

Awesome song! Your friend is a gnarly drummer! I`m really diggin` every part of this song. What movie is that sound clip from? I keep thinking it`s from a 90`s vampire movie involving gangsters turning into vampires.

Anyway, thanks for sharing! Do they have a whole album out?

Onto Part 8! Turning your daily gloom into DOOM!
