Stoner/Doom Bassists 51: Back To The Future

Not to split hairs but the Demon King and OSD have the same circuit. The DK just has the boost/gate mod and feedback oscillation mod.

But if you're not using the extra features the OSD and DK are the same base sound.

yeah I keep forgetting, the OSD and DK have the same gain. the OSD/DK have a bit more gain than the OCD is what I should have said.
 
I finally had a chance to play through my 810 at a slightly louder volume today. I`m not 100% sure but I think the newer 410 slant cab might be vibrating or a speaker is distorting. When I was playing my standard tuned bass I didn`t notice any problems but when I started to play my bass tuned to CGCF I thought I heard some type of distorting when I hit the low C.
It didn`t happen every time I hit a low note and the floor in front of the amp is super creaky. So I know that some of the time I thought I was hearing a problem my foot was just causing the noise.

I`m going to be bummed if it turns out that my new cab needs work done to it.
 
Radial big shot splitter. Put my fuzzes after the splitter into each amp that way each amp gets a different fuzz. If you use just one fuzz run your normal signal chain, the after the last pedal run into the splitter.




To all the dudes that run 2 stacks,I have a question.

How do you go about doing that? Do you use some type of splitter box?

I want to run my 2 stacks at the same time but I`m not sure how to go about doing it.
If I play my Ric I can just use the Ric-o-sound jack and the Y-cable to shoot each pup to their prospective amp. But I don`t want to be limited to just my Ric.
Any help would be super rad!

To Mike in Chicago: DooM is a really broad genre. Bands like High on Fire,Sunn O))),The Sword and Yob all fall under that banner even tho they don`t sound very similar.
 
glad I just checked the Fuzzrocious youtube channel. I don't think the Demon King is for me at all. My band isn't really doom....we may have some doom-ish riffs, but not doom enough to warrant the immenseness that is the Demon King. Holy **** that thing is gnarly.

Gonna have to look into the El Oso and Bluebeard...
 
Im the same way. The flats make my ric not play well with peds. What flats are you using?

i still have no idea how you guys play with flats. they feel so damn weird and they sound all wooly, theres no bite whatsoever. might as well just get nickels and wait until theyre completely trashed, then string up your bass with those, same thing lol.

When I first played them I loved the way they felt, simply for the oooohh/awwwww factor.

Never cared for playing them more than a few minutes though. Began feeling awkward...like I was cheating on my nickels, or something. Definitely felt like I was playing less heavy music.

Stupid, I know, but whatever, I'm a weird dude.
