Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

Anyone interested in my Epi Thunderbird Classic IV Pro with hardshell case? Neckthru model with the Gibson pickups. $450 shipped in the CONUS. Don't want to sell it, but finances are tight and I have to reup our dental insurance by the end of the month. Figured I'd give doombros a shot before putting it up in the classifieds or on Reverb. Still pretty much like new, a couple very minor dings and the case has some white streks/scuffs in spots on the vinyl. Recently setup for D standard tuning with some Rotosound wound nickel strings (without the red silk).

Tempted.
 
Stella is a chihuahua x Boston terrier and a hyper little bitch. She pulls and rushes through doors. She also jumps at the door(like 4 feet in the air). Playing with her is mildly frustrating because she inscesently brings a toy to be thrown and doesn't bring it back for a few minutes. She does respect when playtime is over and I take the squeaky ****er away. She is just an incredibly high energy dog. Frequently shakes like an earthquake when excited.

She also hates 99% of all other mammals and will basically attack on sight. Mimicks innocent play and then gets violent. She was like this when we got her and it's why she was at the HS. Personally it's not a problem for me as I don't need to take her with me everywhere and I don't want another mammal. I'm not sure how to get past it though because of her reaction. The neighbors male dog is the only dog she is cool with. She also once tried to take down a large adult American bulldog. She lost and blood was everywhere, but thankfully only scratches that didn't even scar.

I'd need Caesar Milan.
 
Im super surprised the name Mega Hz isn't taken...whelp thats the new name for my drone project, reserved it on the Bandcamp! Got word my Maximal Drone has shipped. Should be here when I get back from Florida the rest of this week. Hopefully the guy with the Great Destroyer sends it soon so that will be here too.

Sorry to rain on your parade....

well poop...they didn't turn up in my Google, Facederp, or Bandcamp search, probably cause its a different spelling. Its not like my one man drone project is gonna step on their toes at all. I don't even plan on having a Facederp, just a Bandcamp, in which they do not. So drone on I will, until a cease and dismiss comes hah.
 
So I ordered a prewired strat pickguard around new years. It was supposed to arrive with a jack, but didn't. So after a week and a few emails the seller sent me one (not prewired like he told me he would though). The tech I hired to install it and do some other work on my Strat just texted me and told me the bridge pickup in the pickguard is dead. I just emailed the seller again and let him know, waiting to see what happens. Unfortunately it was through a private website, not ebay or amazon or reverb or anything. So I can't just leave negative feedback or something. Worst case scenario I guess I can do a PayPal dispute, but hopefully it doesn't come to that. I'm pretty much dead broke, I paid for it with all the collective cash I got between christmas and my birthday. I'm already super discouraged on playing music right now and selling off every piece of gear I can bear to part with (and some I didn't want to)...feeling very Eeyore at the moment.
 
That German group spells it With herz, so it's technically not megahertz as commonly spelled so I'd say it's not the same as they purposely deviated from that.

Selling off all I can on Craigslist as well. At least most I paid very little for, so the profit is a comfort even if the times aren't.

A guy just offered to buy my HM-2 and says he lives in town, just moved here, plays drums, has a house and wants to Jan something heavy. So two birds one stone(r) moment possibly.

Kinda ironic the Germans misspell it when Hertz himself was, you know, German.
