Yeah I'm not actually interested. I have no idea what that stuff should go for.
I heard the weather might help with settling down the fires. I hope things get back to normal for you soon (or at least what passes for normal in 2020).

Why would you wish him that? Normal for 2020 is terrible!
I went and ordered a new mountainking megalith. I've been massively curious for years. Should be a couple weeks. I have high hopes and have only heard good things
...also decided my egc neck pj sounds amazing with a baxandall tonestack. So I'm running an arkham oracle into a trace elliot v4 with solid solid results.

Finally got my 700RB back yesterday. It is glorious. That is all.
i LOVE bax/James tone stack. most of the amps I've been building use em and even threw one on the end of a rat
its too bad more tube amps don't use it. I went on a brief quest to see if I could find one. Theres the Shaw at 150 watts, matamp gt200mk1 and apparently the traynor yba3. Obvs the ampegs do though.
For the hell of it, here is a really rough clip of something I've been working on here and there with a friend of mine. At the rate we've been going I don't know that it will ever get finished.
And I would be remiss if I didn't thank @ihaveaquestion for the help in getting off to the right start with this.

after more and more thinking Ive decided to sell my meatsmoke. I haven't used the thing for a year or so and I'm more likely to grab something else. I'm honestly not terribly excited about the selling process of this lol
Any experience with Eden cabs? This is local, and it would fulfill my small cab needs, but I can’t find official specs or a manual. I like that it’s “combo-ish” - I can put any head in that rack. I’m a fan of GK’s Neo 410, and I wonder how this compares. Looks like a solid bit of gear, and I feel like Eden has a good rep, but I’ve never played any and don’t know anyone who has.

Colin Marston uses an Eden 410 (along with a JC120), so there's that.
I do enjoy Krallice, and I apparently have some catching up to do in their discography...
Follow up question - what is the “z” symbol for the specs on the back of the cab? It’s next to watts? I see it ohms? Those aren’t listed, so is that an alternate symbol? I’d want to know the ohms on this thing to match it properly.

I always liked Eden. I have no experience with that particular one, but played an Eden 212 from their Nemesis line for years. No complaints here. That was with a double bass in a swing band though, so I don't know how they sound with dirt
I had an Eden 410xlt about 20years ago that was solid and sounded great for what I was doing. Turn the tweeter off immediately. It's a wonky looking cab but good bang for your buck. Try talking em down ha
I have an Eden 112 for lower volume play and like it pretty well. Not much to report about it really, it's a 12 inch speaker and it does what it's supposed to do.
No experience with Eden besides trying a few at stores way back. Heard great things and I'm always all for combos of that style. Love my Mesa 212 combo. The extra weight of the head isn't noticable IMO and with some casters on that sucker it should move easy. Since none of my heads are small it saves me a trip.
In other news, with some spare time I finally delved into some death metal. I knew of a few bands like napalm death and have played shows with local ones, but never really spent time listening. Anyway, the older Swedish stuff like Entombed is great! Toxic holocaust (American right?) is good too, never realized there was a lot of groove oriented parts instead of just thrash and blast beats the whole time. Glad I spent the time, nice to mix things up at times.

Lotta baxandall love here too! That's sweet, how'd it sound? Did it change the breakup at all? I've been thinking about trying to wire up an on board preamp with one.
That oracle looks like a great piece of gear, wish I had the cash to spare.
