Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

[scabpicker]

Even if the band didn't rule (and they kinda do), the shirt does. I'll post a pic when I find it again.

Hehe, here's a pic of the glow in the dark shirt.

The 4003 came today. I like it as much as my friend's, I do believe. The replacement low output pickups have a little less bite than the stock ones, but if that ends up bothering me the stock ones are in the case.

That's a Top Tier T.

And, be wild, drop some Thunderbird pickups in there.

Thankya! And hehehe, nah, I have the Epi T-Bird or the Pure Salem Classic Creep (three T-bird pickups!) if I want the T-bird sound.

I honestly thought the second picture was a freaking jazzy.

Done. Lol. At a loss for words. I've typed out about 5 full responses and deleted them all. I'm just gonna be nice and leave it at that. Haha

Would this put your mind to rest?

 

[davedamage]

Yes. Yes, it would.

 

[cornfarmer]

It would be replaced by the fear of all that falling down & crushing me

However that's rigged hopefully won't vibrate itself apart

Yeah, but that's putting a real sense of doom into the music!

Here’s a couple of other views….bracing support frame in back. I figured there would be something similar to a flown PA array.

Not much happening here in Cleveland. The Browns stink, but, that's not news. Haven't had much of an urge to play my bass lately. Not sure why.

Same... since my last band kicked me out it's been hard to be motivated again

Members of both of my bands have had medical issues or conflicts for time with their other bands over the last month, so not much has been going on. I've spent the time woodsheding. It varies from trying to write something, sometimes jamming along with a drum machine, other times figuring out someone else's bass lines, even other times it's just playing for the love of playing and enjoying the places I can get lost in.

Oh, and playing more video games than I have in years and fixing guitars.

Dang, now I feel guilty. I should have probably done more necessary chores over the last month. Oh well, the holidays are coming and I'm sure stuff will get cancelled due to that (grumble, grumble, bunch of old men and their families and jobs and life). I'll do that stuff then.

My band is picking up steam and I'm in another buying cycle, since I just can't seem to wait for my custom Thunderclapper to ship. I've picked up a baritone guitar, a bass vi and an MTD zx5, but that was abruptly returned to the guitar center from which it came and my desire for import MTDs has evaporated. I've got a stack of pedals I still haven't plugged in and I'm still planning on trying for the Broughton drop tomorrow.

And we're trying (and failing, due to the drummer never being happy) to track some songs before our show next Saturday but it's not looking promising.

But yeah... busy.

Can't afford a Thunderclapper
But came across an EGC neck amd asked Rosche to make me a body that'll Doom...

 

[davedamage]

That is badass! I've been eyeing that aluminum neck you have real hard. Do you like the EGC better?

Thanks! Not better no. Just don't need 2 after a few projects cancelled this year. If it doesn't sell i don't mind keeping it actually.

So, is that two volumes(or one volume, one blend)and no tone controls?
