Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

Hey fellas. I lurk more than post but I just found this thread and love all billion pages of it.

MIJ Ripper clone w/muddies->Digitech Bad Monkey->Ampeg SVT450/810 mic’d up.



Damn, that is verrrry nice. Thank you.

My ex-roommate from decades ago loaned me his Tri-wave Picogenerator awhile ago. I spent my Sunday fooling around with it being fed by my IdiotBox Rainbotron, accompanied by my drum machine and a bass, and had an entirely enjoyable time. I hope it evolves into something else, but if this is all I get out of it, I'm pretty happy.

Noted! Really the V is giving me a great sound, and more than enough volume… but if it wasn’t for the ridiculous efficiency of the Barefaced it wouldn’t be loud enough. Depending on the mood of my guitarists (and the fact that we’ve gone from one hard hitting drummer to maybe a more powerful one)… I’m riding that amp HARD. And, I’m also running my distortion(s) always on, so I’m really using the head mostly for power, even though it’s probably interacting with my pedalboard more than I realize. So basically, I’m probably missing out on the best part of the V-4b as it is.

I’m probably just insane and looking for a reason to spend money… but I like the idea of the extra power for more push in the bottom, and also saving myself what’s probably gonna be an expensive tube job sooner rather than later because of how hard i’m riding that amp. The extra features are secondary to the immense amount of power, but i’d probably use the graphic eq because i’m just that kind of tone geek.

Rest assured that whatever I do with the SVT-4P, i’m almost definitely keeping the V4-b!

V4B line out to a slave power amp and second BareFace?

That is fun as hell. My mind’s eye sees a bunch of cute little claymation pigs dancing around some huge disemboweled leviathan or something else generally nefarious yet absurd.
 
I'll need a diagram for that bowl of pasta, sir. Lol.
Bass->Boss Tuner->Boss Line Selector [acting as a splitter] -> one out goes direct to bass rig, other out goes to->Mountainking Behemoth->Joyo Voodoo Octave->Superfuzz->Joyo Phaser->Wilson Effects Wah->Broughton HPF->to 'guitar' rig.

Just that simple. Lol
 
If anyone is looking for a used Dunable USA R2, I just listed mine. Link in my signature. The project I bought it for has changed some members and direction, so this is on the block.

Ok, I know what's going on here. You're trying to empty my bank account and make me a pariah in my own home by offering me sexy basses for sale. My mother warned me about men like you...
we're like...actively trying to buy our first home in the next few weeks so I've got a bunch of money in my bank account and frankly the posting of these basses is both unfair and an assault on my marriage, so yeah , same
