    Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

    Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

    Hey, I've been reading following this thread for a few months. Read the entire thing, but never really felt like joining in. Not a super talented musician, and have never played in a band. Thought you were a cool bunch and figured that if I had any questions about anything bass, I'd rather ask...
