Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread Part 11 - "Bath Time"

Condolences for your Grandma.

Yeah... Big plus one on that!

Thanks. She was more of a mother than my actual mother (which sadens me to say). The loss is devastating. One bright note/kinda cool thing. When my grandpa died he was cremated. My grandma will be too. And, we will set both their ashes to sea. (my grandpa was a ship captain)

Sorry about your grandma, Joe.

Talked to my Dually builder again today. Things have been smoothed out. My cab should be done in 2-3 weeks. I think anxiety from Monolith and EarCandy made me panic a bit after things weren't going perfectly as planned. I can't wait to hear what the 7 Pro sounds like through one of those things.

If he needs some more funds for materials to build your cab, I can place an order with him. Cab manufacturers all run ponzi-style these days, right?

Too soon?

Lmao...

Only if they are run by a guy named Wade.

Does anyone have input on cab covers? I want to get one for the Dually. Rob suggested this place, which seems like a pretty decent Mom and Pop company: https://lecover.com/index.php

Light weight? Cab Covers?

Next, we're debating the difference between tonewoods.

Only on "Not Doom TV". Your source for everything that sucks.

That is very cool. Not to be morbid, but check the wind before you do the ceremony.

We spread my grandfather at sea and went fishing on the way back. Good times!

What the heck is wrong with a cab cover? It's not like I'm using some POS SWR gear that I don't care about

Also, if anyone has any input on this feel free to post: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f15/amp-rack-help-885014/

I'm sure he was hitting the Heavenly "Like" button for that.

I guess you never heard Geoff's rant on this very subject. I wish the internet had a sarcasm symbol or a way to indicate a joke without having to type LOL (I hate myself for even typing it).

But don't take offense. One of my SWR's came with a cover and I have used it in travel because it would be stupid not to. I've never been one to baby my gear. Maybe that's why nothing I own has any resale value.LOL.

You mean like one of these? http://i.imgur.com/OYacc.jpg

And while the composite build is structurally stronger, it is also a little more susceptible to being pierced by sharp objects. I figure if $50 helps take better care of my $1300 cab then why not.

The urns are biodegradable, so we should be alright.

I keep forgetting that bands are using my practice spot to get ready for MDF. That made for an awkward moment when I went to the spot on my lunch break to pick up some stuff and there were a bunch of metal dudes staring at me in my shirt and tie. One of my studio mates who let them in ushered me out as soon as he could.

Who in here does NOT have a climate controlled job?

not me. nice and comfie everyday.

 

[Lazarus.Bird]

I spend my whole day in an office with lots of expensive electronic equipment, in closets with lots of expensive electronic equipment, or rooms with lots of expensive robots. So everything is always very cool.

I work in a cubicle farm so plenty of HVAC for us.
