I will unashamedly plug my band here, but for good reason. The stoner/doom bassists threads is where I first picked up on the bonecrushingly beautiful side of music. So without you guys, this album would never have come to be. Fire Down Below - Viper Vixen Goddes Saint on bandcamp...

hey all I recently added this unique instrument to my little collection, and since it's something special I thought I'd share it over here. Made in The Netherlands by Jelle Vissers (JeVi basses on facebook), this is The Purpleheart. This bass was not commissioned, Jelle built it mostly as a...

Hey guys, need some wisdom here. I'm about to get an Ampeg SVT-Classic, which, as you all know, will run at 4 or 2 ohm. I currently have 2 Mesa ph212 cabs, each cab is 8 ohm. So as long as I run both cabs, everything is just fine. Problem is that for smaller gigs, I'd like to be able to run just...

playing music is one skill, writing music is another. one who can do both well, deserves double the credit

I think everyone needs at least one Big Muff style fuzz, my favourites: Earthbound Audio Supercollider, Blackout Effectors Musket, Black Arts Toneworks Pharaoh, Earthquaker Devices Hoof. And when it's time for a different flavour: a Maestro Brassmaster style fuzz.

yes, volume knobs were maxed and the pickup selector was in the middle position. I might try to take a look at the stereo out jack.

Thanks for the hint, but that is what I've been doing, stereo out jack only. Not both outputs.

hi, need some Talkbass wisdom here. I recently bought a late 90's Rickenbacker 4003 bass. I tried using the ric-o-sound option, but something 's not working right. This was the setup: Rick 4003, stereo output, using Y-cable (1 stereo to 2 mono plugs) plug A -> Ampeg rig plug B -> Aguilar...

:confused: -> :eek: -> :p That 33rpm Supervoid is amazingly awesome!

:eek: :eek: :eek: Looking forward to hearing your new album! You guys got a release date in mind?

Just listened to Bongripper's Satan Worshipping Doom for the first time. F*ck my eardrums. Awesome job, Ron! First record that impressed me since I discovered Ufomammut. Only point of criticism is that I don't really like sound of the kick drum too much. How do the guitar players manage tuning...

Thanks for the opinions. The '73 4001 doesn't have the checkerboard binding, it does have the horseshoe pickup. I was leaning towards the 4003 from the start, even more so now. Just too bad it isn't jetglo. Aesthetics matter :-)

Thanks for the replies! The push/pull pot on the 4003 was added afterwards. The 4001 is a jetglo (black), the 4003 is mapleglo (natural). The case of the 4001 is in a silver color. I won't be able to test them side by side, nor even on the same amp, so an honest direct comparison will be...

Hey all Need some input here: I want to buy a Rickenbacker bass. I was on the lookout for either a 4001 or a 4003. Now I have got a lead on one of each. I could either get a '73 jetglo 4001 in great condition, with original (silver colored) case for €1800. Love its looks. Or I could get...

I used to have the 410hlf, way too boomy for my taste. So I started looking for some other cab with more definition and ended up with the Mesa ph212. I would never ever go back! The mesa has a nice natural mid bump, articulate lows and plenty of highs (I turn the tweeter completely of 95% of the...
