Stoner/Doom Bassists thread 31: We never sleep

My parents neighbor is a bike nut I'll make him chop up a chain so I can see if it works, I got boss, EHX big box and nano and stuff so I can see if any are finicky.

Small chance but I'd be worried the drilled holes would one reduce resale, but also make a higher chance of dust/moisture/booze getting in

According to this case Rondo Makes a LP style bass, but never seen one, one thread mentioned a lefty B stock bass, but no pictures.

If you don't want to use velcro to attach your pedals you can line the bottom of the case with really thick shag carpeting. That's what Link Removed does and they get pretty rave reviews, and apparently it keeps them pretty secure while playing, and if you put foam in the lid, secure for transport.

Oh they do have one in stock, and it has my named misspelled on the headstock!

Wow. 11lb short scale? my back is starting to hurt. lol.

That is a really, really good idea. Sandwich it between two bits of fluff, shag carpet and foam. Me likey! Thanks for the idea!
 
So were playing with Witch Mountain on Saturday!!!! So pumped, it's gonna be a great first show...Fvck its 3 days away!

Nice. I enjoyed the Scion sponsored EP they just put out. One of the things I love about the smallness/DIYness of our genre is that you get to play at the same shows as the people who you admire and inspire you to make this kind of music. I feel like I'm never more than a few people removed from anyone else in the genre, even if they're way up top or just some random guys from states away. Everyone is just a few friends of friends away.

Yep. The whole genre reminds of what I know about the old blues guys in the early days of recorded music. No respect from the home crowd, but a pretty sizeable following among knowldgeable musicians and rabid fans.

Sure, I want people to make money. But I do like that fact that it's a relatively small community that gets along pretty well.
