Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

The grizzled bluesman R.L. Burnside played a Dano reissue just like the one rere posted but in dark red. What a killer stankety-assed tone. Saw him playing this exclusively at a live show and some TV appearances.
I saw him too. He played Peavey. [didn't have a Dano that show though]

How much market share has Peavey had over the years in Europe?

I always wonder about stuff like that.
I grew up in the south and Peavey is everywhere. Conversely, I never saw a single Carvin anything. And that's just in one country all with the same power infrastructure.
Then when you get to Europe vs. US they've got to have Peavey-equivalent, right?
So what old 70s/80s brands rocked in Europe?

By the way Speedor, nothing but love for Poland. Cheapshots are just good fun.
 
I recorded the guitar demos for the Dunwich 1 Knob 1 Switch pedals today. Also messed around with them on bass, they all sound pretty good, haven't recorded any bass demos yet though. Hopefully I'll get around to that tomorrow. We went for a family outing to a food fair this afternoon and there was practically nothing there and what we had sucked. So I made butter burgers for dinner and they came out awesome, yum. Anyone else see Age Of Ultron yet? The wife and I saw it last night and really enjoyed it.

What makes it a butter burger?

Does Poland count as first world?
lol

Julians gonna come kill you if he ever gets a few hours time off.

No problem, man :D

My take on the first world is if you have time to worry about BS like that, you're definitely in the first world.

I look for Peavey stuff mainly because of this thread :D
But pretty much every practice space I've been to had Peavey PA and mixer. If it's not Peavey, it's Behringer. Go figure.
Apart from that, shvtload of Marshall, Hartke and Ashdown everywhere.

Disregard my dumb question. I could only make out that it was a 8ohm driver and i could see it said BW SPKR. I was worried i may blow the drivers in my new peavey cab. It has a very large aftermarket jack plate on the back so i came up with the super idea to take a phone pic. I risked dropping my phone inside the cab to snag a pic of the full model number on the driver. Its a 1508-8 HE BW, now to find specs ;)

Terrible for bass. 1.9mm xmax.
Might have good "grind" Do Not Boost Bass Much At Volume.
It will die.

It's a certain type of cheeseburger. Basically well seasoned thin patties cooked at high heat, so they're crispy on the outside and rare in the middle, melted cheese, topped with stewed onions and then softened butter slathered on the top bun. It's almost more of a hot wet sandwich than a burger, but they're delicious. Some of the WI doombros are probably familiar.

Don't know how accurate they are to the real thing, but Culver's is a chain restaurant from WI and they sell "butterburgers". Pretty good.
