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

[change-jug]

It's ok, i have a beer gut and man boobs too.

Me too. I was just standing on a chair so I could screw in a light bulb and my gut was spilling out of my tee shirt. Sexy as hell.

Since I`ve become a "family man" I`ve put on 60 pounds or so.

And my hair is thinning

On the upside in a few years I`ll look like Joe Preston(Thrones).

Laz...svt 7 pro just showed up in the clAssifieds for 575.

Hah. I was going to wait until I got the Dually but now I'm not so sure!

 

[change-jug]

Speaking of Thrones,does anyone know what effects Preston uses?
I`ve been thinking about getting another pedal even though I`m completely satisfied with my Gray`Stache,Rat Tail and Gnomeratron.

 

[JoeVictim]

OK, I need to re-record on track but I can't find much in way of free drum software. Maybe I could sweet talk someone into helping me out...

Listening for the first time to Earth 2... so much win (or should I say doom)

Studying has never been so awesome

[cosmicpimp2]

I don't remember why did u ditch the Magma? Just didn't do it??

 

[mc_muench]

Congrats!

 

[doomis]

Nine one! Now post some clips on soundcloud as soon as you get it.

Actually I think there's at least a few people in there with both. Johnk definitely has both as he's got a huge Ampeg collection.

Unfortunately I won't be able to mess with it too much until the Dually comes as it can't do a 2 ohm load. I'll be able to use it through an NV610 but will be hard for me to make comparisons as I don't usually use that cab.

Awesome amp, but it is a knob turner's amp and I am just not a good knob turner. I got some good tones out of it but I missed the Ampeg tone.

 

[cosmicpimp2]

I'm curious how the 7pro will sound cranked up a bit with some fuzz

 

[mc_muench]

I missed the Ampeg tone.

It really is the end all, be all, one ring (tone) to rule them all, tone. There's nothing better.

 

[eyeballkid]

Ampeg makes ringtones?!!

 

[mc_muench]

If they did, it would be the best sounding one for sure!

 

[cosmicpimp2]

I'm the minority here since I'm not a huge ampeg fan. I rather have a mesa 400, Acoustic 370, Hiwatt, Old Sunn, Matamp, Electric Amp, Orange.

 

[Lazarus.Bird]

Lots of great amps out there. Regardless of gear seems players that do our style always find a way to sound good. It's just the tone I personally like to play with the most. I like how it is very present and I can hear it cutting through but it's still low thick and not overbearing on the other instruments.

 

[JoeVictim]

haha. I attempted to play virtual drums to my track. I suck.

 

[mc_muench]

I too have attempted to make virtual drum tracks, let's just say I'm not a drummer.

Not coordinated enough in real life either, I'm going to stick to bass.
