Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

Saw Windhand in Denver last night. Good show & a full house. Also snagged a picture of Parker Chandler's pedalboard for the gear nerds - pretty stripped down, but effective.

I was there last night too. They were good. Singer was pretty much on her game all night. Crazy how packed it was... Tuesday night is not a deterrent for Denver metal heads

I am trying to sell a MIM Fender Cabronita and someone offered me a Darkglass Vintage Deluxe as a partial trade. I've never used the pedal but know the company makes rad stuff. That said, I already use tube amps. Is it redundant to put this pedal in front of an SVT or Sunn 300T?


I don't think it is tubey, but a cool pedal. I don't own one so ymmv.

i had one for awhile. You can get some really good clanking and grindy tonws from it. I sold it when i needed the money at one point because i was getting what i wanted from some other pedals and they resell well.

Took some snaps of the new shipping container rehearsal spot down by the Santa Cruz harbor. It's pretty cool. And weirdly enough, I prefer my funky solid state head and 2x15 franken-Peavey cab over the SVT there.

Looks good! Have you guys had any issues with car break-ins out there? I find myself out in Santa Cruz to go mountain biking fairly frequently and I've taken to just leaving my jeep unlocked because its been broken into so many damn times.

How echoey is that room? The practice room I just started renting is drywall with a concrete floor [12×19] and is echo city. That said we dont have much in there just yet. I'm building some acoustic panels this weekend to get it under control.
 
It's kind of off the beaten path so there is no foot traffic related crime, which I've noticed has gotten a lot worse over the years in that town. We're pretty loud and the room doesn't sound too bad. The guy who built it out put some drywall on the ceiling so I assume he used some kind of sound proofing and what not, which he obviously did with the wall/airlock door to the front room. The carpets help.
 
Always found it funny how minor differences in shape or size can completely change the acoustics of a room. I remember a jam space that was just about the same sq footage as another, just different shape. It had zero issues compared to the other.

Awesome rehearsal space. Great idea for a studio too. I bet a bare container would add some wild effects to a record.

I play a Fender 300 Pro (sunn 300T) and a Ampeg 300 with a Reiner pre.... THAT pedal gets more use than anything in my dirt department. Good clank and grind, but can darken up and be roaring in front of tubes. Its heavy but waaaay more articulate than fuzz. go for it.
