Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

Need some new tracks from those Italians.

The bass player/singer (Urlo?) is a master architect so he might have a lot of real job work.

D Tuners are incredibly handy things. I install them on all my basses, and use drop D in all manner of non- "DROPPED D!!!!" contexts :)

Can they handle other "base tunings" besides E and go down further as a result when flipped. Like d and drop c or something.
 
I had a detuned on my SB4000, because when I bought it the band I was in had two songs in drop tuning. I never used it, I just took a few seconds to tune while the guitarists switched guitars.

I went on a cheap pedal buying spree. Bought a Boss ODB-3 from Nick and a DOD Death Metal off Reverb. I think I'll use the Death Metal for Blues Lawyer lol. I was thinking about buying one more cheapy, $40 or less, maybe a chorus. I've got a little more $$ in my paypal balance than I planned for, since I sold a few things for more than my rock bottom price.
 
Oh poopie, is the ODB-3 going to blow all the other dirt off of the board?!

As for cheap chorus I just got one of these:

for 8 dollars on eBay. No idea what I'll do with it, but the price was right.
 
Never used a d-tuner. Have never been in a rush to get to another tuning in 1sec as apposed to 5sec.

I play in cover bands too. Great for medleys.

It works most accurately for a one step drop. So If you tune to Eb, C# is within reach, but B from E isnt gonna happen.
