Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

No apology needed... why stop there? I love demographic statistical trivia. My Dad always liked to point out that the one part (Brooklyn NY) of the city he was born and grew up in was nearly as populous (2.6 million) as the entire state (Iowa) he moved to. It's pretty remarkable that the country of origin of my patrilineal forebears (Ireland) barely has more people (4.6 million) than the metro area where I now reside (Phoenix metro, 4.4 million).
In addition to pork, grain, potatoes, and Guinness, Ireland and Iowa are both pretty prolific at raising and then exporting people.
RAT King ordered direct from Fuzzrocious. aw yeah. long wait but worth it.
That last part is spot on. Went to Ireland in 2012, it reminded me a lot of home, only with mountains & the Atlantic.
I had ron from bong rippers old one. The FB switch on that thing was the poopie. Pretty good clean blend too (blend was a add on) one of the few I have heard that sounded like what you expect.
i was considering a clean blend addition but it seems the hi/lo clipping options will give enough bottom. this is for a totally different band, so it'll be the only dirt pedal. we'll see how it goes!
sold the power amp for asking price, hope my tama kit goes too, guy said he got busy...
Going to buy a batch of piezo transducers. Got experimenting to do, read and saw some very interesting things you can do.

Sam so glad you posted Grails! What an interesting band!
So the Jazzguarbird isn't noisy after all. I looked down when I pulled a few pedals off to take some pics for sale and noticed the daisy chain wasn't seating properly in the Tyrant Fuzz because the input jack and power input are way too close together to use the pancake cable. I switched to a different cable and bam no more noise. I thought my guitar(humbuckers) was a tad noisy but I really noticed it more when playing the Jazzguarbird. Man I love the tone of those Gibby T-bird pups!

So I am now part of the combo club.

I've lived in a dozen US states and spent significant time in many more. There are only four states I've never been to, or at least traveled through.
Anyways, my faves are, in no order, Arizona, Oregon, Texas (certain parts of TX.)
I lived in AZ for a couple years in the 90s and really loved it. Still miss it. I was in Cottonwood which didn't have a lot going on as a town, but the people were cool (cops sucked though) and the location of it was perfect. Head East a little and you were in the mountains on the way to Flagstaff...lush, gorges, forests, waterfalls. Head west a little and you soon found yourself in the stark beauty of the real deal desert. It was kind of ideal.
Man Cottonwood looks pretty nice. Next vacation is Southwest!
