Can anyone tell me what Cisneros's rig consisted of besides the sparkly green Rick and the Green Matamp bass rig? Fuzz?

Dopesmoker is an amazing album.. although I'm not always a big fan of the vocals. Did you notice in the album artwork it says if you are selling any orange gear please contact Sleep at....

I think he's using a real wah, he seems to have a lot of control over that wah sound. Could be an envelope filter though.
I'd ask around at www.stonerrock.com in the "Jam room" section, those guys obsess with amps, and they obsess with Sleep... they'd be a good source.
Sleep are an amazing band. I find a feeling of accomplishment everytime i get through Dopesmoker all the way. Great song, but i much prefer the "Holy Mountain" album.
I have no clue about any of his gear, i just figured i comment on how i liked the band!

Always good to know someone else shares a similar taste in music so I don't feel like such an ass. I too get that same feeling of accomplishment at the end of Dopesmoker. I need to get a hard-copy of that, all I got is d/l onto my computer.
Anyone got some vinyl they're willing to give up?
Stonerrock.com is a sweet site, be sure to check out their mp3 jukebox. It's truly disgusting how much good stuff they have on there!
I saw their setup when they played in Toronto in '06, but they didn't bring the Green 4x15s over from CA.
Here's a link to that thread:

Sleep rules.
He's running Electric stuff these days.
Dopesmoker and Holy Mountain should be easy to track down on vinyl. They're both still in print.

I believe he's using a EHX bassballs on dragonaut, I mean, it sounds remarkably similar
too bad chris left Om though, I don't think it'll be the same with a new drummer.
has anyone checked out shrinebuilder? it's a new project with Al, Chris (I think) and Wino, should be interesting

i have high hopes for shrinebuilder! (no pun intended lol)
I am a fan of the band sleep as well--I can't stop listening to holy mountain!
I'm fairly certain that was a backline they rented. In fact, I'm positive, because I posted an interview with Al on here where he talks about the gear he's got at home, and none of that stuff is mentioned. But getting 4x15's into Toronto from the Bay Area is undoubtedly very, very expensive.
You took the words right outta my mouth.
I do love Dopesmoker, but Holy Mountain is more fun to digest a lot of the time.
