Stoner/Doom Bassists 54: Big Cabs and Nerd Bombs

i went for the Power Slinky .55-.110, i think that's what you recommended - same gauges anyway, i like the little bit of flop it has in C standard.

not so cheap in new zealand! but they are fantastic.

GOOD LORD THOSE PRICES!!!

i don't like how often they blow up. but the tone is nice!

someone took this shot of my rig the other day:

"listening to this, feels like this"

GOOD LORD DAT JohnK 215s w/JBLs!!!

Whats the bat for?
 
These guys seemed to have me dialed into the mighty Google sights. Every page I click on, Ghost seems to loitering in the banner or hanging out on the border. You think someone knows you... lol...

I gave em a listen, few different tracks, and I don't quite get their angle. I get the theatrics I suppose, but I think it makes me think that they are going to break into something I want to hear.

I mean, if you are going to rock out with Lord Satan, Bring It! To me, it sounds a little like The Monkees with a darker dressing room and lyrics.

Am I missing something? I probably am as I don't remember seeing so much advertising for one band recently.
 
FYI you will loose some output with all flats. But if your want bright and not ground wound flats I would suggest roto flats. Rotos are quite stiff bit sound awesome. Next may be TI jazz flats, supposedly the closest thing to a round tone in a flat but too expensive for me to try. Only other option may be GHS brute flats but that's a round string ground flat and I don't like the feel.
