Stone/Doom Bassists Thread Part 39: Flip Flops & Zubaz!

[swspiers]

Grats! Does that mean your job search is going to get easier?

Yeah. I'm qualified for all sorts of cool stuff. I have my resume for job on Base here in Quantico. Very, very sweet deal if I get it.

In the meantime, I just started school to finish my degree in psychology. Should be easier and quicker than the darn certification.

 

[swspiers]

substances and substance abuse are totally different, maaan

+1

Cleaned up the board a bit. Plenty of room for a wizard fuzz...

yes a 2013 thing i hope

 

[JoeVictim]

Damn. Nothing about that LED light up pedal board? Not cool enough these days... Oh well. Wish it came with an ATA. The company says they'll have some later in 2013. Don't know if I'll want to spend the scratch later.

Upon asking the wife what color, her answer was, "red, it will look more evil". LOL. I love her. (her present to me.)

Oh, and as strange as it is to post this in this thread, I am officially a Certified Substance Abuse Counselor. 6 years and lot of painful hoops, and I'm finally done

So are you now certified to be the shoulder I can cry on when I spill my stash on the carpet?

 

[mc_muench]

Ah, the carpet stash, the last stop when scrounging for one last bowl before payday.

YES.

I keep seeing cheap 810s on Craigslist. Thinking of starting a home for wayward 810s. Somebody has to give them a good home. Pretty sure the misses would kill me if I "fostered" the 3 I found.

Edit: she does not like the phrase "home for wayward 810s". At all.

 

[DethByDoom]

Ok, so don't hate me for "destroying" the instrument...but I did a mod that had mixed results.

New pickups. Could not stand the passive ones. So I pout a set of active pups and pre amp in it. That took some work, and still not completely finished!
Drilled some new holes on the front. Moved the output jack to the bottom.
Had to chisel the cavity out tho fit everything in it. But it all fits, barely. I want to eventually add a separate battery compartment to free up some room.
The electrical tape you see, well, it shows up much better in pics than in person. Lol! No one can tell it's on there in person...blends in nicely...thinking about maybe putting a plate on it got the knobs to hook to, just to smooth out the mistakes I made.

Post from: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=923476&referrerid=229351 . Kinda made me sick. He had pics. It was BAD. At least it was an Epiphone and not a Gibson.

 

[Korladis]

What I don't get is why he drilled new holes on the front. Wasn't there already a hole leftover from moving the output jack?

sounds good through headphones/good sound system otherwise my bass will make your puny speakers sound terrible. couple drunken mistakes, but hey, makes the groove better.

 

[mc_muench]

Niffty!





Get it? Huh? Huh?



Nah, it's really good.

 

[Ekimus]

Like the black fortune… then you'll love Taylor swift.

Wonder if she'd let you guys open for her.

I don't even think she's famous in France, she could be the one opening for us

 

[Jason Hall]

I highly value doomly advice, and find everything I've tried has been good. So it shall be written, so it shall come to pass. Now please... pass...

Anyone following this HSBC ********? I haven't been this angry at a new story in a long time...

Just now read up on it.. wow.. so all I have to do is become an HSBC exceutive and I'm immune to prosecution? Sign me up! On their mp3 players are such hits as "oops I laundered again" and "sorry for all the money laundering". Just sad man.. not suprising.. just sad..

crazy stuff, same thing happened with Citi i think a while ago. what is the point if the penalty is less than the profit they made? I can't believe there were no criminal charges but that's what happens when financial institutions run and own everything.
