Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

[Speedor]

Some of those Fernandes/Burny knock-offs are better than the original.
I've always had a soft spot for Fernandes ever since my first guitar, a green Dragonfly.
Almost pulled the trigger on a new Triturador a few years ago but I couldn't get past the weird fret markers. I'm not sure Fernandes even operates here in the states anymore.

Yeah, I know. I've always thought these Japanese copies have way more mojo than real deals. Besides, I play a 1984 Ibanez P and it's pretty much a love affair. I think I'll try to sell my Squier J and see if I can buy it. It's highly improbable that it will sell quick, lefties are not the hottest things on the market. Everyone wants a Fender around here anyway.

I feel that way about my MIJ Aria P these days.

Ugh, there's a beautiful lefty 70s Fernandes P bass up for sale locally. I've been repeating like a mantra for a few days now: "I don't need another P, I don't need another P..."
I really am a sucker for all those Japanese knockoffs.

Get it.

Bummer news, the used PT we found for the VTA is faulty...calling Pvy to see if they have any, otherwise what was already billed for an under $300 rebuild will turn into $500+. Crossing my fingers they have some NOS PTs. But im suuuper bummed that I wont be able to use it this weektha, was looking forward to the first full tube henge.

You may be able to find a CS800 for not much $$$ to cannibalize for parts.

What's a Cisneros in a box do???

What's a Cisneros in a box do???

Al Cisneros was known to run a DOD250 into a Boss DS-1 in the early-mid Sleep days. It would just be a pedal with both circuits in it. All you'd need are a bunch of dimed Matamps and SVTs.

What were you expecting?

Don't forget the MuTron for Dragonaut.

Play over the neck pup or over the neck, too.

(Or was that mentioned already?)

Lets not forget, lots of weed too. Cant have dank sticky Al riffs without that.

You know, I got into a disagreement with someone once who insisted that was a wah pedal.

 

[The_Janitor]

I read somewhere that it was a MuTron, don't remember where or if it was a reputable source but it sounds more more like an envelope filter than a wah to me.

Not related, but hilarious:

Savage.

Pretty sure i have always heard it's a mutron, but I also think I probably heard that from you guys. Sure sounds like an envelope filter.

 

[Turkeypills]

Mutron. Must be why my Fwonkbeta cops the Dragonaut sound so well.
