Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

As for the Blower Box. I may just sell this one too didn't work so well in the mix today.
It's a strange little beast. Tone changes quite a bit based on attack.
Would like to try it with and LS2 at some point for some clean blend madness. Well see.

Second run at the set list I backed the VTRM blend almost off. This pulls the sansamp circuit out of the mix, then I needed to pull the main level down a bunch... Need to mess with it more at home and see how if like it that way.

Drummer hated the echo from the unholy grail, but he hates all effects so no bother. :)
I'll keep it on there to bug him from time to time.

There was a Krull arcade game as well if I remember right.


Super cool looking dog. But really ask yourself. Do you have the time for a dog?

I'm 100% single outside of fun calls. And I have a vet tech as a best friend and my other friends dog just died so I got a baby sitter too.

Well, I've shown your avatars around to my daughters.

They are considering options.

I'm in texas and I promised you at least a peavey quality setup. No behringer! We can exchange at the winstar while watching keith urban.

Anyone pick up stuff on Record Store Day? I'm laid up so couldn't go. My drummer works at the local indie shop, he grabbed the Swans exclusive for me. Almost had him get Time to Die but it's so bad I passed. Laugh if you must but I was hoping they'd get Dead Milkmen - Beezlebubba but no luck. Oh there was an RSD Straight Outta Compton I missed out on too.
 
Askrere that dog looks awesome, but please don't be one of those people that get a dog and don't think it through. It will likely live for 12-15 years, will need training, physical and mental exercise daily, food, veterinary care (important and EXPENSIVE), can't be left alone for more than 8 hours,etc. It will also severely limit your options for rental housing - you have a house with a yard now, will you have the same type of place for the next 10 years?

Anyway, something to think about. Way too many dogs end up at shelters because people didn't realize how much is involved.

+1.

and pet insurance, I can't stress that enough.
 
It's the time... Not short term but really long term that I was talking about. My Akita is 12 this year and will be my last furry pet for a LOOOOOOONG time. I love him, he's a great dog. But I just don't give him the time he deserves. We just recently got back into walks around the hood. Other than that he sits alone in the back yard. He always wants into the house. Thinks he's human.

Was supposed to go get her today, but there was a storm last night and her owners are out chasing their escaped cows. So tomorrow.

I've done a lot of research all day. It's a Australian cattle dog/Australian Shepard Mix known as a Texas Heeler. They are are super smart and active, but not big. Works for me as I wanted something I could walk or ride my bike with or hike and it's made for that without taking up excessive space.

Got a big yard, I'll get two baby barriers on Amazon so I can control where it goes in the house.

Good news is they seem like nice people who use their dogs are real cattle dogs and aren't trying to puppy mill so I feel safer about it's genetics and health. My vet major friend is also coming with and gonna guide me through this.

It's nice having the Orange Terror but I also wanted to have a more tradtional/veratile bass sounding amp too. I flipped an 800RB that I should of kept so pretty stoked to find another GK, especially for $160. But now I have a touch of big cab lust lol.
For most people the 400rb is more ideal than the 800rb. The biAMPing system isn't suited for regular bass cabinets. Most of us bassists just can't figure that out.
