Both my ric cases are the same size as my fender case. I would imagine you could find a score/deal in town and not pay shipping.

Stoner/Doom Bassists 54: Big Cabs and Nerd Bombs
- Thread starter CL400Peavey
- Start date
There's definitely a lot of elitism in the stoner/doom crowd as far as gear. Some of it bothers me.
Sometimes I worry that I might come off as pretentious with my gear, due to my amp and cab being really nice. Then I remember that the bass I play doom with is a modded entry-level Peavey, and I feel better.
For a second I worried what people might think of me playing a $2500 bass in front of 10 people, but the thought of owning my own EGC made that go away pretty quickly
I got a purple Dopesmoker too! Purple is the color of Pimps, royalty and grandmas.
I may actually be seeing Earthless in Germany this summer! If that happens, Im finna cry
Also seems like shows are just landing on our doorstep...thanks DOOMstork

I do admit that the idea of having an EGC does intrigue me. I don't have that kind of money, though.
Right now I do want another Rickenbacker, though.
So, I'm beginning to feel like I'm getting Laz'd by Heavy Electronics.I sent my pedal to them March 13th, they received it March 18th. Sent a few emails after it was confirmed that they had it on what the status was...nothing.
Talked to them again last week (on the phone..the only way I've been able to get ahold of them) and was told it was patched up and would be shipped out within the next couple days and would be sent a tracking number. Again, nothing.
Sent another email on Monday and was sent a tracking number, but it's been two days and there has been no activity on the number I was given.
Sooo yeah....I have been nothing but kind in my inquiries about the whole thing, but I'm beginning to wonder if I'll ever see this pedal again. Am I being too quick to judge here?
I can't imagine them lazzing you.
I'm picturing an old newpaper political cartoon, where you're slaving away over a pile of pedals, with stacks of books and ungraded papers around you and your fiance tapping her foot off to the side and there's a mob of angry, shadowy figures looming over with clubs and it just says "TB S/D Thread" across their chests.
I'd take it without the artwork...just saying
I know but id like to get the tourbox and product line moving before i do small custom orders
That's what I thought, too....but I'm beginning to wonder.
Change your tone from passive to upset, and let them know how poorly you think their customer service has been up to this point in a respectful manner. One of the downfalls of successful small businesses like that is, is that customer service gets set aside when something like faulty parts or falling behind schedule sets everyone on edge.
