The Doom Room: ILF Edition

[spawnofthesith]

There is an early 70's sunn concert lead for 300 on my local Craigslist, good buy? If it's still around next payday I could pick it up.

Also, let's talk pick ups for a moment. My LP has 57s, and I love it in the neck, but not so much in the bridge. I want something that plays nice with fuzz, and has a nice fat bottom end. I've been thinking about a bkp of some sort, but also considering a lace, based on the number of bands using those. Any suggestions?

Daz is back!
How's things man?
That's awesome about that test press bid.

Conky, your old lady is one hot librarian! Nice ones.
Also, congrats to her for breaking hearts burlesque styles.

I had something to say here, but now I have forgotten it.

Oh yeah, Krosis, how'd you find the stock neck p/up in your 400 that you just replaced?

MADNESS!!!

Probably a good investment. Way more than I could afford that's for sure. Have fun on the tour man. I CAN NOT WAIT TO WELCOME YOU GUYS BACK. Going to be one hell of a show. Tony and I will be traveling to Portland for the night before as well.

I have a tone zone in a basswood guitar and its fattened up the sound pretty nicely. Higher output though.

Also on the lady fronted doom I thought Windhands Soma was the best doom album from last year.

Ex Gods Fucking Slayed.



Mike had his Dunwich and Soldano and it ripped. Just a heavy HEAVY set. When these guys drop an album it will be on the DR required list. You heard it here first.

Scary moment during the set. An attractive young lady with lots of tattoos collapsed and had a seizure. She was ok afterwards, at the risk of sounding callous. fucking METAL.

I'm gong to check out those ear plugs. any other recomendations would be welcome as well as reviews. I cannot stand foam ones as they cut some freqs more than others.

Thanks for coming man- it was a good time, with the exception of the seizure woman of course!

[AngryGoldfish]

I do plugs every show, too.

Definitely going to start doing this. You can still hear everything really well, and you can feel the volume with the earplugs in. I've lost in-earphones before, just whatever was lying around, and it's been great.

MADNESS!!!

That is crazy!

Bare Knuckle Nailbomb?

[spawnofthesith]

The nailbomb has been my top consideration for bkp. People keep suggesting that one to me, maybe it's time to pull the trigger lol

[D.o.S.]

Nailbomb, the band, is pretty awesome, too.

Thanks for the recommendations, y'all! Got a few things lined up for daytime listening.

As far as Acid King goes, I listened to a song or two, and I think my objection to them is largely the same one that I have to Conan: I have a sweet spot for guitar tones, and they're outside it. I like a good balance of frequency spectrum, and tones that have no bottom (djent) or no upper-frequency crunch just don't do it for me. That said, I'm still giving them another chance before I write them off as "outside my tastes."

My band recorded a couple tracks last week. They're being mixed now, but in case anyone WASN'T aware, the pigtronix polysaturator is a head fuck of a dirt box. Holy crap that thing is outstanding.

I've been trying to pick one of those up for a while. I bought one off a guy on TGP last year and it's the only time I ever had to make a PayPal claim, dude totally fucked me over. I think he forgot he sold it to me and sold it locally to someone, then just stalled me hoping I'd forget I paid him lol. I keep looking for a good price on one on ebay, but every time one comes up for a price I like, I can't spend money. I have an Aria and Philosopher's Tone and love both of them.

Possible substitute?

EHX makes a lot of cool pedals, but I've gotten to the point of just avoiding them now. Every one I've ever opened up to mod or repair (or watch someone else do the same), it was like touching spiderwebs. Things just fell apart like crazy on the inside. Terrible solder joints, tiny wires, crappy parts. It's kind of a bummer, because they do make a lot of cool sounding pedals.
