Stoner/Doom Bassists 51: Back To The Future

only stepped on a squier...

That last thread went by quick...How far away from the Lakland thread for being the thread with the most parts?

They're 679 posts after being on thread #61 for about 3 months. So we should lap them in...a month tops? About the time the Dunwich tour box gets to me should be when I re-up my gear loan, so you can expect a big posting surge this summer.
 
Since it's slow, maybe you guys can give me some feedback on a craft project. I'm going to start working on making a faux aged leather tome this weekend. One of the things I want to do this year is make a Lovecraftian style codex, for fun. So this is kind of my first practice run, just making a static prop that I might turn into a functional box or something after I'm done.

I'm trying to decide how to decorate the front cover. Going over ideas for themes...occult grimoire, alchemist's journal or steampunk style time machine manual? It's probably going to have an embossed style symbol and maybe a gold leaf title.
 
Holy shizz that last thread went by fast!

I can`t remember who posted those 2 links to the classifieds but I wish I wouldn`t have looked. I`ve been GAS`ing for a 70`s Gibson G-3 for a while now and seeing one up for sale isn`t helping anything. That new EB for sale looks pretty interesting too.
I tried to cure my GAS for Gibsons by snagging a new Explorer bass a few months back. It didn`t work. That`s not to say that I don`t love my Explorer,I do. I`m just addicted to buying gear.:help:

I just cleaned up my apartment and dusted off my 2 115`s and that SVT solid state head. I have `em nicely stacked now and was all set to annoy my girlfriend by d!cking around with the 810 and 215. BUT I just noticed one big problem. I don`t have any speaker cables. Damn it.

Anyone want to recommend some speaker cables that have a good mix of quality and low price? What kind of gauge should I go with? Does it matter?

One last thing, anybody here use a multiple guitar/bass rack? Something that could hold 5 to 7 basses? I don`t need it to be road worthy,it`s just going to stay in my house.
