Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

[dukeorock]

That reminds me, I wanted to hit you up about working on a sealed cab idea for me. I just don't have the scratch to fund it right now, hopefully soon.

You know where to find me! I'd love to hear about what you're cooking up

I'll send you an email about it, when I get some free time.

Sounds good, Corey. I should have a prototype all wired up in the next few days to mess around with. The speakers are supposed to arrive on Thursday. The box is built and everything is ready to just mount speakers

That is still the only parallel fret bass that gives me a twitch....

Nice bass! I love mine to pieces. My recently acquired 1982 Gibson G3 is getting a little more love lately but that's just because it's new (to me)

Well in your defense that's a hard bass to turn down

That's a nice T40!

I'm scoping out practice spots in town and found one that's five minutes from the house. That would be convenient. Luckily i knew a shitload of local musicians so i can ask around about the place. It appears to be run by guys in the local modern metal scene, which i don't know much about.

Also I've gotten half dozen replies to the ad that could be promising, if the top choice doesn't work out. I've got a good feeling about that guy - and yes i probably just jinxed it.

Just finished Slow Southern Steel.
Real good doc, tells it like it is for the most part. I'm glad it was suggested. First thing to make me homesick in a while.
So thanks to whoever linked that.

 

[Burnsy]

just finished Hex Volt band practice. feelin' good! Last week we were tired and sloptastic. This week we sound like a legit outfit. Hope to arrange a first gig soon.

T-40 Time!

I can not put this thing down, can't wait to slap my circle k's on it tomorrow when they come in the mail.

First time trying circle k, I normally use balance tension D'addario's 120.-50.

I gots the t40 super gas. Narrowly missed a mint black and maple t40 with OHSC for $300. It was the unusual time I actually had money for an impulse purchase.

Stellar bass, Congrats! An Asian pawn shop in Richmond VA had that color T40 on the wall for $260 but I wasn't flush that month. I need to stop by there and see if it is still hanging on the wall.

Someone might enjoy this for a morning laugh. Got a stuffy head this morning so got to work, made a cup of coffee and got a cup of water to take some alka-seltzer. Guess which cup I dropped the alka-seltzer in...yep dropped it right in the coffee. Instant coffee volcano at my desk. And yes I am still drinking it.

That must be the most bitter cup of coffee ever made.
