Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

Hope it's the good stuff at least. I'm pretty cheap by nature and necessity, but subpar whiskey ain't worth the time.

For all those mentioning Jager, have you ever tried Barenjager? It's the honey version of it. It is so overly sweet, but good for tiny sips.

Jameson is my go to. At the bar it's whatever is cheap.

Crest Prolite is still out of commission. Working up the stones to open it up a and see if it's a fuse. It would really be a drag if that thing kicked the bucket that easily.

So for my show on Saturday, I'll be using my 2000s and V4B into an ampeg 810 and 610. Any tips on pairing of amps to cabs? Should I ABY or jump the Sunn into the ampeg? Unfortunately I won't have an opportunity to run the full rig ahead of time, but I have my 810 and I rehearse on a 610 so I am familiar with EQ points for both cabs and volume level to reach similar loud points.

I gutted my black Fury and loaded up my White one. I also contacted a local luthier repair tech to make some new PGs. It's about 15 dollars more expensive than online options but the turn around is 1 week to online a best of 3-4 weeks and I'll be supporting local business so I am ok with the premium. I'm really digging these lone wolf fuzzes. Still figuring the Iron Fist out. Was a little to scooped at first, but I know I can get a lot of midrange out of it as well. The Extreme Octave is awesome though.

That's all I have for now. Considering building a 2 PT2399 delay reverb combo box. Maybe with an order switcher as well. I have to many unfinished projects though. I just can't ever settle in case designs and am not very visually creative. Any name or theme ideas for the King Tut pharaoh clone?

@kleinenenten you should come out Saturday night! I am pretty sure @Ender_rpm will be there.

Wow you look different than your avatar, jk. I dug your tone, nice overdrive sound, what pedal/amp you using? Is that one of those Fender Modern Player jazz basses? Don't recognize that color?

This guy keeps calling me early and I keep saying wrong number then he calls back and leaves long voicemails.

I sent him a wall of crazy text and pictures to prove either I'm not who he thinks I am, or at least a mentally compromised version of him so he'll back off... No luck yet.

Might be the start of a wonderful friendship...

Hey Squanch... if anyone wants a little preamp/boost flavor without having to warm up the tubes, check this out. I know it says 'moshpit' corny huh? But it sounds really nice.

Welp. Back to substitute teaching/unemployment. Got laid off from the factory job today. Had been out with a strained back since tuesday, I guess because production was slowing down and the big orders were mostly filled already, they didn't need the extra labor anymore.

Adjunct Professor? Not all is sorrow. I had a good time listening to your 30 minute track from catapult the dead, the harmonizing buildups produced reminiscent thoughts of regret

Nah, substitute teacher. Very unreliable source of income, but better than nothing. Had a temp job at a factory that just ended.

And thanks. We're working on the second album now.
