Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread Part 82: Comfortable with Derision

Might have to pm me if it's too much for the public, I need to know now.

Haha. Yea, I can do that. Not that it's uber graphic, "Faces of Death", "Farmer Vincent's smoked meats" or anything. Very gross in it's own right, though. It'd be like an uber mega post, long winded story, to tell the whole event. I will shorten it for the thread by saying that their chili meat consist of the hotdogs that don't make it down the conveyor belt, getting scooped up by a Bobcat (not the animal), and dumped into a large grinder pot thing (not even cool, like the giant meat-grinder they had at the GWAR shows in the late 90's). So yea, the chili is made of floor food, that was well beyond the 5 second rule threshold. The dude stomping around in'em sporting some rubber boots, and a large plastic shovel, made it even worse.
After seeing it first hand, I couldn't even look at a can of their chili for years without getting a little bit a mouth barf action.

TMI, Very Funny.
 
I can't even eat potted meat or vienna sausages and last night the little guy was hanking down a can like it was prime rib and the girlfriend's little sister was telling us how her best friend drinks the juice out of the can. Whenever I think I grew up poor I see someone eating that shite and think maybe I wasn't as poor as I thought lol.

Ha ha ha. I hate when I am picking up some groceries and the girlfriend says Joe can you grab Micah and I some potted meat and viena sausages, I get all offended to throw that in the cart with my other food, like really babe, can't you get that when you are shopping, oh ok, argh! My buddy told me it is the same way when his gramma says on the way home could you swing by and pick up a watermelon or some fried chicken, he says Gram stereotype or not, I am black and there is no way in hell I am going to throw one watermelon on the counter at the grocery store, it just ain't happening, I love you but no damn way, lol.
 
Been away too long, dont know which thread to post in (I'll bizarro post in the other thread, since it seems to be happening in an alternate universe/dimension).

At any rate, big congrats Corey, on the coming addition to Your family!

Got the Orange headcase "Mark II" done. Came out looking really nice, but I haven't had the time to take any photos. Hopefully, I can get some shots of it this eve, and post'em up.

Thanks man. Did you do up the Orange headcase in red, with white piping?


congrats on the future little dude corey

Thanks Max and may you have many happy and healthy Sunns and Peaveys.


Late to the party: congrats on the munchkin Corey!

New boss starts today, meet her once at a trade show last year. Seems nice, but i have no idea what's it'll be like to work for her.

So I'll be avoiding the non work related web browsing for awhile. Whee!

Thanks man, much appreciated. Hopefully the new boss is cool, does she also have a super cool studio in her basement?



Also late to the party but dig the new song big time Corey!

Glad you dig it man, thanks. I wrote another new one yesterday, but I still need to record the guitar tracks for it today. I'm pushing myself to keep writing at steady pace right now. I'm off on vacation all week, so I'm just working in 2 or 3 hours a day, while the wife goes shopping and stuff.


Leave you kids alone for one weekend and it all goes to sh1t

This is what happens when you leave the monkeys to run the zoo.


I am so excited I am posting my Baby on this thread too, lol!!!
Thanks Mark!!!
My Baby!!!

Sweet cab man, glad it made its way to you! Now go forth and make loud noises.

Cool!
Wound up doing it in the red tolex, with the two inlayed black piping strips kind of like on the AD200 and other Orange amps/cabs. Also came up with an idea to deal with the XLR-effects loop, and fan opening on the side, that's a bit cleaner looking than the first one I built.
 
So, I suddenly find myself in the market for a new cab. Just how loud is that Bassic 15? I've been considering one of those or a Dually, but I'm not sure I actually need the volume that a Dually would give me. I've been using an Avatar 210 for a few years, but it's starting to get some awful distortion and box vibration. I think the volume levels I've been practicing at with my Orange Terror 500 has just killed it off, even though it was supposed to be able to handle that wattage.

I think the thing that I really want is physical presence. I love the idea of highly engineered cabinets, but I also crave a big old stack of wooden boxes to stand in front of.

So, the Bassic... loud enough to hang with a orange rockerverb 50 and a 412 cab?

To be honest, I don't really know, some of the guys on here will though. Funny thing you mentioned the Avatar B210, I just traded off a ceramic speaker version I had for a power amp. Man that little f'er was a beast well to me it was anyway. Sounds like you need the Dually!
Here are the speaker specs.

I'd say Dually. Maybe you don't need everything it has to give but it will be more sensitive than the bassic. Which will open you up for the ability to use a greater selection of amps. Specifically classic low wattage amps.
