Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread Part Ten - What is this thread about again?

Yea I read those threads and people get crazy with the science stuff. I have some knowledge of it and have a book all about speakers and sound but am no pro lol. I'd go with the 3015's too. The Faitails sound too hi fi to me. That's the main reason I was never interested in a fearful or new light weight cab cause every clip I've heard they sound too modern. I love me that sound of an old cab before they had computers to tell us how they should sound

They knew how they would sound back then as well. Computers are just replacing what smart folks did with a pen and paper. They could draw the same fancy charts and do the same fancy math.
 
Thought I'd put up a pic of some of my main gear.

My Ibby on the left with the PJ pickups kicks ass but It doesn't have the stock PUP's and I don't like the ones on it. They are active semour ducans with switches on the pickups. Any one have some good suggestions for a good passive replacement? I was thinking of maybe those emg's passives but I don't know much about PUP's. I want a good old school sound that isn't all boosted or muddy
 
not sure how recent this was, but i was looking at some live photos of Baroness on the facespace, and noticed that Summer Welch wasn't playing bass. it turns out he left the band, though i'm not sure why. he was good, though i the are way more of a guitar band. i'm curious about the new guy.
