Stoner/Doom Bassists 56: We're the internet tuff guys!

So in the span of one week I ordered a 3015, then bought a diesel 1x15, and finally built myself another tl606 to match the diesel cab.

I have never built a cab before and haven't done any wood working for 8 years.

I have never been so easily heard in my life. I actually had to turn my volume down which never happens. These things have the SPL
 
You put the El Oso through it's paces yet?

Yeah i used it through 3 or 4 practices. On it's own it's nothing special. Sounded really cool with the Bluebeard but not that much more awesome than just the Bluebeard alone. I let a friend borrow it and if he likes it i think i may sell it to him. If not then I'll hang on to it to have some options in the studio.
 
tuned my rick back up to standard last night (for my other band's practice). i tell you guys what, the El Oso is the absolute perfect rock bass distortion. crank a DOD 250 into it for extra dirt, and you've got yourself a winner winner chicken dinner. sounds better than a RAT with my rig.

haha! start contrast on reviews one after another. try it with your rick, sam! sounds great with an envelope filter before it too due to the blend.

Nice tl, got any ideas for covering that naked wood?
 
@joe-I`m digging that bassline! I wasn`t sure if those were vocals or some kind of feedback at first.lol Pretty cool though.

@Oozman-whoa,gnarly groove going on there! What kind of bass gear did you use on that track?

My vocals sounded like feedback? Ouch. Headphones or other? I thought some of the lyrics were comprehensible. Like on the break where I say.

"We got to stop this disease... yeah, that we call mankind. His greed for the power done made me sick".

Maybe a vocal overdub?

Oh well. We really have to get in the studio soon.
 
I can't believe you jump your tuning around that much and the ric neck takes it.

i adjust it every time - not the neck, but the saddles. i lower it to almost touching the frets with standard, and have it quite high & tight with C standard. tension feels almost the same, but i haven't done the maths on it

definitely need another ric though, don't wanna be doing that too often
