Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

Pretty sure I've listened to it. I'll have to revisit it. I know I really like Master of Brutality, solid album. And there are some tracks after I enjoy.
Yeah Master of Brutality is pretty cool. I think i still prefer Early Works.
Does laying around watching Netflix and not writing tunes so as not to wake the girl count? If so, live away my friend!
Printed posters for next weeks show, hung one up at Exclusive Co. "Say it with me, Exclusive Co." Had to browse...
Wow went to ska buddies band practice, the guy who asked to borrow my bass stuff. So he saw I had those peavey PA cabs that need speakers or wiring. And is convinced I'm gonna have a working PA. In fact he's so convinced he told his band with me there I will have a PA they can use shortly!
If I hadn't just met the singer and she wasn't cute I'd have told him off right there, but tomorrow I'll probably have to say something to him along the lines of throw down on parts for fixing it and getting a mixer or figure something out between yourselves.

Ha ha, no, I would not be surprised at all. Not the sharpest tool in the shed, that fellow.What's a tafm?
And well I got my basses, bass vi, electric guitar and acoustic, surely at least one will be neato sounding.
Would you be surprised if I said it was the dude who tore up his 4x12 to keep it from being stolen
Yeah, you recommended, I'm sure, affordable stuff that would still sound decent. And the idiot goes and gets an overpriced Behringer.
Most stuff you can get several sounds out of, so I don't think tone should be that much a consideration in cheap gear (except stuff that has a baked in sound that's extreme and cannot actually be dialed out).
Watch, it's going to break, and then you're going to say "I told you so," and he's going to be mad about it.
I can't imagine using more than one drive/fuzz pedal at a time. Always just sounds too noisy to me and note definition goes out the window.
Definitely. It's one thing if it happens once, but if people do it over and over again it's like "dude, why are you even asking me?" It can really be insulting.
as long as the pedals are dialed in fairly tame it works. stereo works wonders as well.
Hard Times!!!Great bass playing on this album. Recommended.
Killer cover of that on the roots/John legend album.
Askrere you need to set some firm boundaries with the borrower. You're not just a free gear rental house. Is that the same guy that eats all of your food?
Thanks for the Mudbutt Bluebeard suggestions Gents!!! I would of never though to drop the tone that low. Man I dig it set to Mudbutt. I think with Bluebeard set to smooth fuzz and Ron FN Swanson set to crazy fuzz I got bass fuzz covered now and can sell of the Fender Sub-Lime.
It is really sweet but only on bass, it can go from overdrive to high gain muffy fuzz but it doesn't do crazy fuzz because it is muffy not super fuzzy like ol Ron FN Swanson. Plus I just landed a SmallSound BigSound Mini OD! So kind of need to move one unit and the one to move is the one that doesn't do both bass and guitar. I always try to sell to buy so something has to give. Plus I don't have the heart to sell my Bluebeard.
Yes!!! Got called off work today, paid. Vacation day tomorrow and off rest of weekend. If I smoked dope id be high as hell right now 
Just picked up my SVT from the shop. I have to give a shout-out to my favorite amp and instrument guy Chris Barnett. Chris stoked me.
He says, "You needed some pre-amp tubes, and I had two of these so I gave you one."
Shows me this:
Thats a 1945 US Navy tube, NOS.
wow, who knows if that sounds good, but a 1945 US navy tube is shaging rad.
Working titles of Galactica Hatchet songs...
Heavy Pipe
Lady of the Lake
Heavy Pipe
Lady of the Lake
The only CoM I've listened to was the last one and it is freaking rad. I love how the one track has like 3 bass solos in it haha.
Jamming in B was pretty fun last night. We reworked one of our existing songs that hasn't made it to a release yet in a lower key and also jammed on some other stuff. Preferred the tone of having the bridge pickup solo'd. Sounded fantastic straight into the Orange, and also was getting some killer tones with the Bluebeard.
