Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

You can get different kind of pots (linear and logarithmic) but either can be used for volume or tone. The difference is how they are wired and that there is a capacitor connected to the tone which determines the effected frequencies. I think...

As for the muff, I would expect that is possible, my bluebeard is one of the later models with this mod. Pretty beastly, kind of wish it was on a footswitch!

I found an pre tone bypass BB and sent it to have the upgrade done. I wish there was a footswitch and two volume controls to account for the crazy huge volume increase when in tone bypass. Would like to have them at unity when switching back and forth.
Plenty of diagrams on the Big Muff tone bypass mod online. Looks pretty simple too.

What the hell? Lol
Ummm....
Is that dude whoring out his goat?
So it's brain teaser time.
Would you eat an animal people have been having sex with if you knew?
Like you buy a used goat and rescue it from the indignity of being a goatwhore, but could you eat it?
I'm sure i wouldn't taste anything but my head would sure be thrown for a loop.

I'd be more thrown for a loop that the seller was willing to disclose that he had Carnal relations with his herd.

It'd be weird, but I also wouldn't throw the goats dismembered sex holes on the barbie.

And I prefer eating humans that'd had previously been loved pumped by animals.

Bought that T shirt....

On the subject I want an Eyehategod and electric wizard shirt but the ones I prefer (don't say anything that could be misconstrued) both feature a naked lady, in a less than proper way of course. Would I be looked at badly in the street and bars for wearing one?

It might put off a potential lady friend.

I will tell you this, I got more grief from complete strangers for my Eyehategod shirts than any other shirt. All the way back to high school, when I would wear Slayer, Cannibal Corpse, Suffocation, Incantation, etc shirts - some with some pretty graphic imagery - it was Eyehategod that prompted strangers to come up to me and try to "save" me. It got really shaging annoying.

Random stranger at Burger King "Do you really hate god?"

"No, I don't believe in god, that's just the name of a band that I like"

"Oh, because we love god..."

This is usually when I'd lose it and start swearing at people to mind their own goddamn business.

Now there is a CAN-DO attitude.

Let's say you were involved with a rescue group that liberated the beasts. As opposed this detail being on the label of a package or a sales disclosure.

The lady friend thing is a potential problem, but if it was a long term one, she'd find out soon enough I can get a lot nastier than any t shirt :3

I kinda look forward to the talks from people over "Eyehategod". That could lead to some fun quick discourse with strangers.

Lol I'd eat it, just because if I became a meat fueled animal brothel exterminator, I feel I'd be open to many things.

I have GAS, and my wife is an impregnable fortress of "No."

Lame. Flip some stuff to pay for what you want?

I'm lucky to have a supportive wife. Her response is usually: "We don't have kids, we make decent money, we work so that we can have and do things that we enjoy. If _______ will help you with a project/band then you should get it." (within reason of course)

She was all for me getting the squier J I was GASing for last week. Luckily I remembered how awesome my ATK is to play and how killer it sounds - killed my squier GAS right quick.

I used to wear my EYEHATEGOD shirts (I have/had 4 or 5) to Sunday brunch every week for something like a year. Never got a comment. Of course I was 100 lbs heavier and had about a foot of beard and a shaved head then.

This, among many other much larger reasons, is why I am divorced. Dont tell me, "we are saving, you may not buy that ____!" when you go out to sushi for lunch three times a week while I eat rice and beans to not go over the monthly food budget. :rage:

oops.... Little big of my former life spilling out.
 
I'm in the process of selling some stuff to pick up some new gear. The wife and I are in saving mode, so if I want new toys, old toys need to go.
That's what I do, I just sell to buy/try. I try to allow for one pedal purchase to quell the gas, but even then I have usually sold some to get new ones. But I use the cost of a pedal as how much I can splurge if I don't sell anything for it.

That sucks. Glad you broke those chains...
