The Doom Room: ILF Edition

[samzadgan]

Oh, I put tons of shit tickets down but I still feel gross afterwards.

I think I just attained douchebag blues lawyer status. PRS inbound.

PRS are fuckin great...i tried a few SE's and they played better than most things i've bought. I still dont know why i dont own the Bernie Marsden sig SE...that thing was lovely to play and sounded pretty damn good too.

Finally getting over a 4 day flu thats been kicking my ass to hell and back. This has not been fun.

No douche bag status. One of the guitarists in my band uses a PRS Custom 24 into a an old 2 channel Mesa Triple Rec and it sounds beast as a contrast to our other guitarists SG > 5150 / Marshall 4x12 setup. PRS's have always played well, felt solid as mother trucker, and sound beast. Even if its flamed cap your fine broseph.

I've listened to this like 10 times since it got dropped. I'm really really digging it and can't wait for the new album.

that looks awesome. i think trimmers for distortion eq are a great idea. a lot of people, myself included, are often happy just to set and forget that anyway, but still having some control to dial it in to your rig is a great idea.

also, what's the scoop on the production hm2? do you have a time frame in mind? that enclosure you posted on IG was awesome and got me all fired up.

Magic is currently on tour with a band. Assuming the enclosures are shipped back to his place when he gets back after the tour (ends Mar 1) then he will begin building them. Id like to see them shipping in March/April. That is the best I could say for now.

One-knobbers look ace! Trimmers for set-and-forget settings on the distortion (and maybe a tone control on the fuzz?) are a great idea.

Fuzz does have Tone inside on a trimmer, like the Marsh Chapel

y.

Nick, that is a badass idea.
Definitely been hankering for a fuzz throne, this might bridge the gap on my budget.
WIll it get as gainy as the FThrone?
Basically, will it make me sound like John from Conan?

But seriously...

Trimmers for distortion is a good idea.

Yea 1 knob FT will get you that Conan or Slomatics tone (see the latest split EP for that sound). Same gain level as usual.

will the volt thrower run at 18v? Love my vt by the way, can't say enough good things about it. These should have folks salivating. I'm very interested in the boost. I'll be looking forward to deets and demo's.

Yes you can use 18V as usual.

As long as they are a little wider than usual one knob deals (those fuckers tip easily when heavy footed people step on them).

2.6" wide

Nick, the 1 knob jobs are cool as fuck. The internal pots is a great idea. Im assuming these are MXR sized pedal (approx?), would you do them with top mounted jacks or side?

You should do a whole line up with compressor, reverb, phaser and 1 knob eq, which would be tone knobe with a 3 way switch that does a bass boost/bass cut

4.6" x 2.5" Top mounted jacks, nothing less from a dunwich.

If anyone is sleeping on the Thou/Body collab record you're not doing yourself any favors. Easy placement on a 2015 best of already.

Hey folks. Im looking to put out a slightly cheaper 1 knob pedal set.

1 knob boost
1 knob fuzz
1 knob distortion

1 knob, 1 switch per pedal.

The distortion is based on the VT
the fuzz is based on the Fuzzthrone
and the boost is a hybrid (mixed SI and Ge) boost

For the distortion I am thinking of putting in trimmers for the distortion, bass, and treble on the pcb. Does this make sense for distortion? I think its fine to have no trimmers for fuzz but the distortion usually people like to shape this a bit more than fuzz

Are these going to be 18v compatible or only 9v?

As far as the distortion and the internal trimmers it does make total sense. Since dirt / distortion is uaully a set and forget type pedal the internal trimmers will be nice to make sure your settings don't get knocked around during transport / setup. And if its based on a VT its all ready a winner.

[new05002]

Skip the Fuzz could likely run at 18V but will most likely not be any different. The boost is likely going to be fixed at 9V due to the Ge Qs. Distortion fine at 18V

[D.o.S.]

What's the VT descended from/related to again?

Ten four!

Volt Thrower = Rat

[D.o.S.]

Oooh, nifty.

[emptyparadigm]

Yeah, it's a LSTR with Pharaoh EQ section. It has more midrange and is fatter. If dark and fat is Doom, it's about as Doom as I think a pedal could be made without building a huge empty box with no holes.

QFT. I will never, ever part with mine.

HNGGGGGGGGGGGGGG. Gonna need that distortion.

this tour is kicking ass. two weeks down, three to go.

Looking forward to bro hangs when you fellas hit Denver. My pals in Muscle Beach are opening, and they kick ass. High-energy metall-ish post-hardcore maybe? Whatever, they rule. https://musclebeachdenver.bandcamp.com/ ... gle-wizard Dudes have great tone.

I'm thinking of getting a USA PRS Custom 24 for teaching. It's almost the perfect tool for that. I think I'd be better off with a Suhr or Tom Anderson, but PRS are more readily available.

Unless plans change or weather turns to absolute shit in Michigan... See you in Chicago on Saturday.

Nick -- Dunwich one-knobbers look nice.

but it came out last year. can't be best of 2015.... other than that note I do enjoy it. I got it back when it was released last April.

[ShaolinLambKiller]

Oh snap i was doing some searching are you talking about this new one?
