Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

#30,522
so yesterday I made a comment in a thread, something to the effect of, Ive had a literal ton of amps come and go but Ive kept my fender 300 pro.
well, it got me to thinking, was I being hyperbolic when I said I have had a literal ton of amps? so.. I went and added up my gear list of amps that have come and gone over the years and what i still have.
Its OFFICIAL.. I HAVE had and literal TON of amps!! in fact 2237lbs of them to be exact!
(thats only amps... not cabs!)
Do I get some kind of trophy for being such a "heavy" bassist? lol

Watching this horror comedy mockumentary. Love that dry New Zealand comedy.

It might be remotely possible that it was just hacked up A LOT, but it doesn't look like a 2000S or 200S cabinet. No front port, though the baffle looks like it's been replaced. There's some holes in the back that don't match up, but I guess those could have been cut. The strap handle isn't in the right place, but maybe that was removed/replaced. So it's remotely possible, but even if it ever WAS a Sunn 2000S, it's not now.

It looks like someone tried to turn that cab into a redneck sub for the back of like an Explorer or something.

All I needed was the next call saying they blew up the speakers with a car amp. Or it worked great for a min.

Behringer cabs were replaced by the SWR 610 over a month ago. No real GAS happening, I'm happy with my setup as is. Thinking about building a gaming PC and I'm going to buy a nicer sewing machine for my wife.

Oh yea, ever try all three cabs?

Wish I knew someone with a decent sewing machine and skills. I broke a canvas Vietnam war era sling backpack I've had since I was a kid and want it fixed up.

I'm thinking if this new opportunity works out I wouldn't mind a gaming laptop, just because if I'm traveling 4 days a week I'd be bored the nights I'm trapped in a hotel in a boring city. I'm just worried that instead of upgrades, I'd have to buy a whole new laptop as it became less capable over time. Also I'd be carrying a work laptop too.

I have not tried all 3 cabs at once, could have the other day at practice but I'm already louder than everyone else so I didn't bother.

I loaded up my laptop with Genesis, SNES and NES emulators, downloaded all games for each system and bought a USB game pad. I take it with when I'm traveling for work. Almost never have time to use it, but it's nice when I'm stuck in the airport. At home i can HDMI out to the tv for instant retro gaming console.

Anyone heard of a Fender Super Rack? Googling it has scant info suggesting it's a super rack 60 (60 watts). But those heads say super rack 60 in the bottom left corner. This says only super rack in upper right. too rich for my blood, but looks interesting.

My ex-dormmate who went to the hospital for .20 BAC back then around 2012 just texted me to say he's back in the hospital with a .39!!!!

Had to google it, apparent .35 and above is the equivalent to surgical anesthesia/death.

Dude, I think your friend might have a problem.

Had a chance to mess with a theremin at the Exploratorium last weekend with my daughter. I believe that was the first time for me. Still want one.

Nice.

Inter Arma used a theramin on The Cavern, apparently.
